First Weightloss Goal Conquered! ~10kgs on Keto~

I did it! This number has been eluding me for a few weeks now. Jumping up and down on the scales by 200 to 500grams.

But finally!

This morning I stepped on the scales not hoping to make a big loss but hoping to make a loss nonetheless and there it was!

97.2kg

That's 10kg loss and a WHOOSH of 500grams loss from yesterday. This waiting has been worth it. I can feel the motivation flooding back in.

This means that I am a quarter of my way to my initial goal of a 40kg loss.

It's been only 6 weeks which is hard to believe. I feel like it's been months. But on any other diet/exercise I could only hope to lose that kind of weight in a year... not a matter of weeks.

I'm looking forward to getting further down on the scale and all the benefits that come with; more energy, more clothing options, feeling healthier.

I think I said in my last post about Keto that it's hard to eat out and socialise when you know you need a major fat or protein bomb but don't have access to one. And watching everyone else eat food you love is hard.

When I've talked to people about the diet the response is always "I could never do that. I love carbs too much" or some variation.

WELL GUESS WHAT

I probably love carbs more than you could ever imagine! It was 80% of my diet before this. Potato chips, fries, bread, rice. I love all of it and would eat FAR too much of it. Going to the movies without popcorn, even now, is unthinkable.

But I'm doing it. And it's successful so far. Nobody has ever said losing weight was easy and although I think Keto is the easiest thing I've ever done that doesn't mean it's not hard.

If you really want to lose weight then you will do what it takes to achieve it.

That turned into more of a rant than I was meaning to make...

Anyway, I'm happy! Weightloss is going great! And I see only bright things ahead!
