Morning everyone!
@Onelittlepiglet and others who might not have lost anything, or not as much as you want - it’s hard but keep the faith and KOKO and the weight will come off! This WOE takes patience sometimes because you can have a couple of weeks (or more) where nothing seems to be happening but the work is still being done inside your body. Have you taken measurements? If not, start doing that now. Or find a piece of clothing that’s tight and take a set of photos from front and back. Or better yet, bra and pants shots - That way you will have evidence of progress for the weeks when the scales aren’t budging. Your body will likely still be changing but if you’re too stuck on looking for loss on the scales you won’t see it.
When you say you’re going to cut right back and won’t be having yoghurt and cream, do you mean you’ll cut out the cream and keep having the yoghurt? Because there’s no need to stop having yoghurt. Maybe have it with a little bit of vanilla instead some days and with a handful of raspberries or other berries the other days.
Also don’t be tempted to cut back on food (unless you are very close to target weight) or especially fat - that will be counterproductive. Eat more veg, eat plenty of fat, drink lots of water. Cheese and cream, fine - halve what you’ve been having and see how you go, or cut out the cheese altogether and have cream (or vice versa).
Remember what I said previously - as fat cells empty they will be filled with water so there is a temporary ‘gain’ (or at least a levelling up) whilst the body does its thing - then, if you keep eating plenty of fat in the meantime, and don’t feed your system any forbidden carbs, the body will at some point process things, expel the water and get rid of the fat cells. That’s when you’ll have the whoosh.
Focus on the good food, the long term health benefits, and especially on any NSVs you’ve had.
This is my week 2 weigh in as I’m a week behind everyone else. 70.8kg (156lbs). Please could someone add that to the spreadsheet for me? TIA
