Week 2 - Five-week Low Carb Bootcamp - bring on the dairy!

[BIWI]

Morning all. Sorry for the late start of the thread.

Spreadsheet of Fabulousness is here

and we also have our lovely Weight Tracker

Hope you all have a good week!

And interested to see how you fared after Ubercamp, those of you who braved it!

Weight Tracker

I am feeling very positive at the moment. Body went through a few changes last week especially on day 4&5. Was glad to be buying dairy again though so celebrated with Onken Natural yoghurt for breakfast with a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Will definitely be keeping dairy to a minimum, I have no more planned in todays meals :) Expect for coffee!

Thank you for the new thread BIWI. I forgot to weigh before i had my cup of tea this am so will weigh tomorrow.

Good luck everyone. Water, water, butter, butter.

well added my weight loss for last week 1.5lb down,but I have to admit I was dissapointed this week as I had no cheets but think I let myself down on the veg content which I plan to fix this week.

Well done everyone.

Hello new thread! Two and a half pounds down last week so I have less than three pounds to go to my target weight. I'm very happy indeed.

Welcoming dairy back I have had a cup of tea and a cheese omelette for breakfast but I'm still hungry so about to sneak off for a BPC.

Morning all.

I'm confused...

BIWI's first link (spreadsheet of fab) goes to the BC Rules.
BIWI's second link goes to a blank webpage with the URL www.mumsnet.co.uk/bootcamp

Buffy seems to have had the same problem with the blank page and Pisses reposted the link, but that goes to the BC spreadsheet.

I thought the spreadsheet and the MN Weight Tracker were 2 different things...so I'm confused.

Am I just being dim? (Disclaimer: it is Monday morning)

P.S. I lost 4lbs in week one. Yay!

3lb down which is great.

Ok - I am here, I am joining Bootcamp. I am inspired by everyone's progress and weightloss. I am doing this.

Do I just add myself to the spreadsheet and weight tracker?

If you're being dim Treasures you have company. I'm having the same trouble!

I'll have to weigh in tomorrow. Mobility issues this morning so didn't manage it.

I seem to have disappeared from the spreadsheet. What do I do?

Forgot to add, some impressive weight losses! Don't think I'll be joining the ranks though. Still, I'd settle for anything I'm so desperate. I've gone nearly 2 wks now with no cheese or cream. Wondering if I dare add a bit back just to make life more interesting.

hello all, I am rejoining from the egg fast gang.

Didn't weigh in this morning so will do tomorrow (I have borrowed scales so can weigh first thing from now on...little joys).

B - 2 fried eggs, black coffee (now that i've switched I don't mind it too much)
L - I've got a tin of mackerel in oil with me (at the office today)
D - not sure yet

I'm trying to keep the carbs quite low, an almost meat/egg fast. I've got PCOS and finding the weightloss to be slow going on 20g a day (even with 20kgs + to lose). Egg fast produced results but felt quite restrictive.

Place marking.

Have been looking at coconut oil ... Is the KTC brand stuff any good? I hate the smell / taste of coconut so the lack of smell / taste is attractive!

So, I blew it last night from feeling unwell and had some ice cream, have stayed in ketosis somehow but my stomach is killing me and I have awful wind .

Doing ubercamp this week to get me on track. Today I have had 6 slices of bacon and a couple of small bits of bratwurst that the toddler left and a dollop of mayo.

Trinity Tesco sell bottles of "pure coconut oil" in their cooking oil section, it's completely flavour and scentless and costs less than £2 a bottle, I used it for a while.
I'm now using organic virgin coconut oil by "groovy foods" and love it but it's very coconutty.

revised lunch - had rocket and spinach leaves, with 5 olives and a few green beans from the salad buffet to go with my tinned mackerel, plus 20g serving of cheddar.

schrow going to try that coconut oil, thanks - have my ikea frother now too.

pony & miffy you can input your weight on the spread sheet if you want.

Sorry all I was lurking and realised the link was going to the last bootcamps spreadsheet so quickly reposted the ubercamp link as the weight tracker , my mistake

I done ok last week and now contemplating keeping on with ubercamp, perhaps a day at a time...

well done on the impressive losses

whoops - sorry pony I meant Treasures.

After the holidays my brain might start working

I'm feeling a bit disappointed in myself as I started ubercamp really well but ended the week in Bootcamp light - really light.
I need to plan a good shop but payday is Thursday so I need to get through a few more days...
I'll weigh in tomorrow as I forgot before leaving the house this morning. I really want to get back on track but it definitely requires more planning/resources than I've had available.
I WILL do a full week of ubercamp once I'm all stocked up.
Well done to everyone else, some fantastic results so far.

Have added myself to the spreadsheet.

I am just a whole pound under the heaviest weight I've ever been in my life. I need to lose about 2.5 stones in total to get back to a manageable weight, but my first challenge is just to lose as much as I can in the next 5 weeks so I can actually fit into my bridesmaid dress comfortably and not be a total embarrassment.

I read up last night and have been to the supermarket to stock up this morning - butter, pork chops, belly roast, whole cooked chicken, plus avacados, veg, cucumber, lettuce, olives and red wine vinegar. I don't drink coffee, unfortunately, as the BPC sounds amazing...

So far today:
Brekkie: small bowl of yoghurt
Snack: 2 chicken wings (with skin on)
Lunch: will be an omelette with mushrooms, courgettes and salad, cooked in butter.
Dinner: roasted veg and salad, with either a piece of salmon from the freezer or some of the roast chicken.

Plus I have already drunk one litre of the three litres I have to drink today.

How does that all sound, am I on the right track with the eating?

Not a good weekend, but, I will NOT use it as an excuse to give up. New day, new start.

2.5 pounds down. Hoping it will be 'slow & steady' weightloss??
