Golfingboy Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) Back on the steak and eggs, gave it up for 2 weeks during the holidays and my weight increased. Has taken me 4 days to get back where I was before 15 days of eating what I wanted. So I’m where I was 3 weeks ago, will try not to do that again. Still, I’m around my lowest in over 6 years, and will be under 300 by Monday.Going to be tough to watch 6 NFL playoff games with no carbs, but I’ll manage Edited January 9, 2021 by Golfingboy 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all honestly the key is to get the balance of the sauces you put in right, not having holy basil doesn’t make a massive difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
