Two Weeks Down...

[fluffytofit]

10% of my weight loss goal completed! I started out March 2 at 158 and as of this morning, I'm 154. I'm 5'6" and my goal is 120-125. I haven't been working out as I had induction flu last week and have a pinched nerve in my neck this week (OW!) but I'm excited to work out because I feel so good!

Not sure if I'm in ketosis or not as I need to get ketostix today. I'm a little frustrated because my weight fluctuated over the last two weeks (I was 152 earlier this week), but I'm cutting back on the cheese to see if that'll help. Even though I'm a little frustrated, I keep reminding myself that four pounds in two weeks is great, I'll lose more when I work out AND I bought an H&M dress on Wednesday that was an 8 when I wore a 10 not that long ago! Woohoo!

Re: Two Weeks Down...

fluffytofit, congratulations on a successful induction!

Don't worry about the fluctuations. They are normal. They drive us crazy, but they ARE normal!

If you are counting your carbs carefully, eating enough fat, and staying on plan, you probably can't help but be in ketosis.

The ketosticks aren't essential, but I found they helped me a lot in the beginning just to reassure myself that great things were happening inside my body whether I could see them on the outside or not.

Enjoy wearing that size 8!!!

Congratulations on shrinking into single digits

When you move to OWL (and start working out) I wonder what size you will find fits you by the time you reach goal!!

Thanks y'all! Also, WHOA. I think it may have been nearing TOM this week, because I'm back down to 151.2 this morning! Such an awesome whoosh!
