Well... we've reached day 31! The last day of January... so now time for update pictures! It's really hard for me to see the difference, I mean really hard. I take solace in the fact that those scrub bottoms don't fit anymore. And as of this morning I'm 12 freaking pounds down! That put me in the mood to run, if you can't tell by my attire lol. See you all in February!

I can totally see it. Well done! [emoji1323][emoji322][emoji324][emoji323]

Well, I haven't met all my goals for this month. Primarily I wanted to break my evening snack habits. I'm better but not all the way there so I didn't lose as much as I wanted but I did break through another stall. I'm officially ending the month at 220lbs. That means I lost 15lbs this month and.....

I'VE OFFICIALLY LOST 101LBS!!!!!

That's really really amazing!!!!

Ok, before/after, 15lbs down. I don't see too much of a difference but I feel great!

It took a picture for me to really see the difference. I'm hitting week long stalls but I ain't worried! Will definitely be doing the February challenge!

..I can't give up fruit and kidney Beans...

Same. I've been trying to keep my carbs around 30g a day but pureed bean have been a lifesaver! I've always loved beans. I don't know if I can do the whole keto thing and not eat beans. Rice and bread, and pasta sure, but beans?

Overcoming Obstacles: I think it's the worry in the back of my mind this really won't work just like all the other diets have failed. I mean it's working so far, I'm over 25 kilos down, but when's the bounce back up gonna happen?

Same fear runs through my head. You just gotta keep reminding yourself to focus on the present and have faith that this time around will be different!

Down 14 lbs for the month.
Pants fit better ?

Ok strange thing is I only wanted to use timers consistantly and eliminate my use of protein cookies, don't judge me, but in the process I dropped out of a maintenance zone and lost around 7-8lbs... This far into the game that's nothing to gloss over. But I do need to keep some fat around for the possibility of Plastics.

*Maybe* I'll slow down on them ?. I have a box that I need to figure out how to gift...

Maybe not ?

Starting: 158ish

Ending: 150ish
