Week 6 - Low Carb Bootcamp - it's all downhill from here!

[BIWI]

Morning losers!

Here's the spreadsheet

So we start the second half of Bootcamp. By now, hopefully you're in the swing of things, and the scales and/or the tape measure are showing good results.

Keep focused. Keep your eye on what you're eating - it's all too easy to become a bit complacent, relax and let the carbs creep back in.

Keep up the water (you are drinking enough, aren't you?!) and make sure that you're eating lots of fat and getting your carbs from vegetables and salad.

But above all - good luck!

It is hard, definitely. I’ve been feeling sorry for myself, not sure why and not like me at all. So some self sabotage; for instance was at a gala yesterday with dd - could have took my running gear but didn’t and just sat there bored. In a better mindset I would have gone for a run in the sunshine - that’s what I need to get back.

Wine - yes absolutely. I’m going to abstain for a while. I might start lent a bit early!

Remained the same but have had cake so I'm happy with that. In it again this week as I still have 5lbs by 31 March until next target. I'm not a massive drinker at home so don't miss it but my parents don't understand why I'm not drinking and think I'm pregnant (even though they know dh has had the snip!). Oh well, they'll realise their error in 9 months!

1lb off this week which is slow but at least down - I was lower mid week but weekends always go up a bit.

8lb off this boot camp, 12lb since early Dec when I started.

Half term last week so exercise not at normal levels. Did my Pilates before work this morning so hopefully back in the groove....

Day 3 Alcohol-Free successful. Just reporting in. Will post weight when new thread is up.
