I decided to go back to shakes because I'd been in a stall for over a month now. I have one shake for breakfast, protein for lunch, another shake between lunch and dinner and a small dinner. I couldn't fully commit to the shakes only because I was having flashbacks to the 2 week liquid only phase. I also upped my water because I was slacking. I was only getting 40 of the 60 oz in.

SO the last 2 days I've been in the bathroom every 30 minutes and I've also lost 3 lbs! [emoji1316]

I feel so much better knowing that the scales moving even though I know I shouldn't rely on the scale to make me feel good. My clothes are falling off, but the scale going down makes me feel better! [emoji23][emoji23]

Haha, 'small dinner', as if I could have any other size dinner.

I think the weightloss is due to the increasing water, not drinking enough can cause you to retain water. I do not think it had anything to do with just doing shakes, but congrats.

I don't care what caused it, as long as it's happening haha! And I'm not hungrier than I would be if I was having my hard boiled egg for breakfast so that's good. But seriously, I was reading a lot about it and the water is the magical helper to weightloss. It's just so hard to drink so much!

The struggle is so real! It's hard to always always be on track but if you know how to reel it in, I think you're doing ok! (That goes for everyone, not pointing fingers). I know I've eaten a couple things I shouldn't, like I snuck some breadcrumbs (1/4 cup) into a batch of 30 chicken meatballs. Is it going to kill me? No. Could I live without it? Probably. We have to adapt!
