wineallthetime I have tried cauliflower rice and dont mind it, I’ll put that back in my meal plan. MH has tried it and dislikes it, a lot. Then polishes off a bag of chips in the evening cause he’s hungry. He gets 2900 calories per day for maintenance, I can’t even with him 😉

Oh to be a man.... not sure if you have Trader Joe's by you, but they have a frozen cauliflower rice stir fry that's very tasty.

That way he tolerates it, but it's better for him.

I finished my 10 day cleanse. It went pretty well and was actually easier doing it myself vs with dh since I didn’t have to listen to him complain and could eat whatever I wanted without making sure he would like it. The 10 days went super fast.
I didn’t have a huge drop on the scale, but 2-3 pounds is reasonable for 10 days and I’m feeling really good. I worked out every day and am really feeling/ seeing some definition so I’ll take that! I just put on my bikini instead of tankini to take the kids to the pool and I’m not hating it

I was on me period last week and it's a rule that I dont weigh myself during that bloated time then I ate like shit yesterday, I stayed within my calories but too heavy, my guts are not ok today. So long story short, I'm planning to weigh in on Wed/Thurs.
I hope it's a good loss, I've bought a winter coat that I've been drooling over since last Christmas, got it a half price online and it's everything I want it to be, except a little tight. I was soooo mad, so I've decided not to return it and just lose 10-15lbs before November.

Lower carb life started July 24, so now on the 25th day, and BBM started August 1; and I'm 5lbs down. It's definitely slow and steady but it's nice to see the number on the scale go down.
The next 5 lbs would take me into a new decade, which would be awesome.

That’s awesome vino. I’m down 2 lbs but I’m at the weight I always get stuck at. I just want to be 5 lbs lighter and I’d be in my goal decade. I hate how much the number on the scale means to me.

I reached a big goal of mine this morning and almost cried. Today is the first time I've weighed myself that the number on the scale started with a 1. I've lost 40 lbs since January and 20 lbs since July. Its been hard, but I feel so much better. I'm hoping for 30 more.

Amazing mwhip!!! You need to share a pic and show off that loss!! Also...I need inspiration because I’m 2.5 lbs from that same milestone and I just can’t break the barrier! Down 20lbs since April.

lfig it's weird how I don't take pics that include my body. I had to search just to find this pic from December. Today's pic has a snapchat filter because I hate taking selfies. I did find a full body pic from July, before I started the new diet, I'll get that same outfit out tonight and compare.

@mwip great job! Keep it up and you can get there. How has the decrease in alcohol consumption been on you? How is yh doing after the extreme diet week?
