Day 35 : Lowest weight in over 6 months (and perhaps even more!)

Giving myself cause to celebrate - I waver in and out of wanting to detail every single bit of my journey and just cruising along, to be fair, I'm not even sure how long I've been doing LCHF since I restarted (for the nth time!) but I can safely say about 35 days.

How's it been so far? It's been GREAT! Apart from the fact that I keep dreaming of sweet foods, and about eating them (with all the guilt) and feeling a bit like I can't differentiate if it's a dream or reality!

This time around it's been slightly easier, no explosive poos and painful tummy aches YET - but I bet there will be when the yeast dies. I'm hoping to persevere through it because I really feel so awesome eating this way, and now that I've found comfort in eating cheese crisps with everything, and making said crisps in the microwave at work, I can do this FOREVER! Mwahaha :)

OH, and let's not forget, I'm not at 148kgs. According to MFP it's the lowest recorded weight I've had in a YEAR, so that's something isn't it?! Can't wait until I'm in the 130s though, because that would be truly awesome!

We had a really busy week last week, with our first really huge market stall (the biggest event of the market trader year apparently!) and we got in by pure chance! We were soooo busy I didn't even get to have the 4 coffees I had planned to have, and only had 1 and 3/4 cups before we were completely slammed all day and ran out of milk! Hahahaha! I felt fine though, and my husband had a swapsie meal with one of our trader friends (he runs a alp dumpling shop which makes the most amazing vege dumplings with a red pepper goulash - soooo yum!) but I had nothing apart from tuna and cheese crisps I gobbled down for brekky. Went home and had a Nandos, and the next morning I was 148kgs!

Talk about a mega win! Hahaha :)

So proud of myself for not using exhaustion as a reason to cheat, and eat nonsense. So proud of myself for looking the other way when my husband was GIVEN one of my most favourite meals, and staying strong despite not having ANYTHING to eat at all! I couldn't even "reward" myself with a latte because all we had left was skim, and skim is, as we all know, bad for you!!

SO PROUD of myself for staying strong and losing weight, and keeping to this for a whole month now. I can't wait to see what other rewards I will have from this.

More blogging to come up, I'm planning on writing that clothes goals post (i.e. the clothes I plan on wearing when I lose weight/what I think I will enjoy wearing!) and an updated activities reward chart for my weight loss goals. I don't yet have any travel plans this year, apart from possibly a xmas trip which I'm hoping I'll have lost a lot more weight for so I can have *some* treats, but we'll see. I'm still yet to go a few days without eating, so there's still a lot of mountains to climb!
