Crossed 24 days going low carb

Progress Chart

I've been on a low carb diet for 24 days. I cooked my own meals and baked my bread and dessert. Most of my meals revolved around pork, chicken, eggs and green vegetables (spinach, broccoli). My weekend breakfast is made mostly from my perfected coconut-cream cheese pancakes.

I lost 6 lbs over this period and I need to lose 8-10 lbs more to meet my target weight. starting at 105 lbs and being at 5'0", I expected the sluggish weight loss. And I'll keep going because I still believe!

The most difficult part I would say is the first 2 weeks. I ate delicious and full flavored food but Ifelt dissatisfied as if something was missing. I felt my stomach was full but my entire body seemed to miss the starch and sugar it was used to have.

My headaches sometimes got really bad but I slept those off. After 24 days on this diet, I no longer have the headaches. I guess it's true that your body learns to adapt.

If you're about to start on your low carb journey I'm cheering for you!
