UPPING CARBS = STANDSTILL

I've increased the carbs a tad this week - and as expected the weight loss has stagnated. BUT, thankfully this is a planned break for x-mas. Thing is I have no intention of gorging myself on cakes and sweets - but now even eating a small potato makes me feel a bit sick and bloated after an hour or so. Since I WILL be eating christmas dinner, potatoes and all, I am hoping to get my body used to a slightly higher amount of carbs beforehand, because I don't want to feel ill all x-mas eve and x-mas day.

I'll report back with how I am doing dealing with the carb temptations I will inevitably come across over the next week, and will check in with a weigh-in in the new year, hopefully the damage won't be too bad!

WEIGH-IN 11th DECEMBER: - 1.3 kg / 2.9 lbs

Yes, yes, yesssss!!! I upped the fat intake this week (I've added more real butter in my cooking and have been snacking on pork scratchings!) to encourage a bigger loss - and it certainly did the trick. I ♥ low carb eating!

I am now less than 4 kg /9 lbs away from having a "normal" BMI!

WEIGH-IN 4th DECEMBER: - 0.5 kg / 1.1 lbs

Too busy to write a lengthy post today, just checking in quickly to report a loss this week too :)
