Welcome to the last week of our ten-week Low Carb Bootcamp. Don't forget to weigh-in and update the spreadsheet and let's focus on staying on track this week. Next Monday will be the last Bootcamp thread but, never fear, we all stick around and keep chatting away until it's time for the next Bootcamp around May.

What an odd end to boot camp. No one saw this coming 10 weeks ago!

I've been stress eating this week, no excuse but it's been a stressful time! All my gym and exercise places are closed obviously so I won't have another reliable weigh in for weeks. Panicking that cobbled together meals, lack of exercise and stress induced eating and drinking will undo everything. And then realising how fucking shallow that makes me.

I hope everyone is well and all of you and your family and friends come through this safely.

Well SIL arrived back from Oz today, and will be with us until mid-week. But I've started with a cold Shock. I'm hoping beyond hope that it is just a cold - so far a mild sore throat and a bit of a bunged up nose, and no fever, so doesn't sound at all like CV. Fingers crossed ...

Hope you are ok Biwi, hope everyone else is ok too.

Fingers crossed BIWI.

Thanks all. Feeling fine today. Lovely to see some sunshine too, even if we can't just go out and enjoy it like we would normally.

Happy mother's DayFlowers
DS1 has made me a brew.
The others asked why it wasn't kids day Hmm little shits.

I've been super good and avoided the cakes DS1 baked, but I am having real spag bol tonight. It's my favourite meal so I'm going to treat myself.

Morning all
Stayed the same, we are on a no waste eating plan now at home, so added a small handful (60g) of red lentils into the leftover chicken curry from Friday night. So 20g each as Dd2 does not eat curry.
In total I will have lost about 12 lbs this boot camp and am very happy with where I am weight wise, thank you for all your support and for the laughs.

I've put on a couple of pounds this morning Sad

But my Mother's Day breakfast-in-bed (made by dh as ds is still up in Aberdeen being forced to work for Carphone Warehouse in their shop even though he's been made redundant Hmm) was at least low carb Grin

I don't often post on here but I have been following the bootcamps for quite a while. I have done low carb high fat off and on for a while but I have properly committed to this bootcamp. After the initial few weeks I also combined it with intermittent fasting and I have been doing weights 3 times a week. I have gone from around 10st 4 to 9st 5 which is better than my target of 9st 7. I just wanted to say how grateful I am for all the advice and support that is given on here, you are all fabulous and so generous giving your time to help others, thank you! Hope everyone is ok given the current circumstances.
