Week 3 - Pre-summer Low Carb Bootcamp - the choice is yours!

Morning all. Sorry for the later than usual thread, but I'm away at the moment/1

Anyway, here's the Spreadsheet of Fabulousness

As we've now completed the first two, more strict, weeks of Bootcamp you have a choice. You can move on to Bootcamp Light, (rules are on the spreadsheet tabs), which essentially means you can add in a few nuts/seeds, and some fruit (berries, and strictly in moderation), and you can have alcohol occasionally.

However, if you haven't really done Bootcamp strictly enough, or you cheated, or just because you think it's going well, you can stay on Bootcamp. (If you do, though, please make sure your carbs are mainly coming from vegetables and salad, to make sure that you're getting a good balance of nutrition)

Alternatively, you can do Bootcamp during the week but Bootcamp Light at the weekend. The choice is yours.

However, there is one thing I have to warn you about. Weeks 3 and 4 are notorious for little or no weight loss. If this happens to you, please don't panic! Just keep on keeping on and things will start to move again.

After initial big losses in the first couple of weeks, you can't feasibly expect to see that continue, and you should that weight loss settles down at around 1-3lbs a week, depending on how much you have to lose.

Good luck all! Flowers

Morning all, forgot to weigh in yesterday but apparently I've put on 3lbs, could someone adjust my weight on the spreadsheet please?

I'm running a few times a week so not sure if that would make any difference to weight, I've been keeping an eye on my measurements with a tape measure and I'm about an inch off where I was happy with this time last year.

BIWI the bootcamp rules say to drink a minimum of 2 litres of water a day but the table with the list of weights only goes down to 140lb and 2.5 litres. At what weight would 2 litres be ok?

First, come and join us on the latest chat thread - this is last week's!

But second, how much do you weigh? If you're less than 140lbs, then you're probably OK with 2 litres. But more won't do you any harm Grin
