I know it's technically not a stall until it lasts a set amount of time, but not losing any foir 9 days starting week 5... When the scale starts moving again, it's brilliant!

It didn't start moving again until I started hitting my water goals, don't think iit was coincidence. I only squeak by the 60g min protein and 64oz water, but doing so for three days is a streak for me! Even though it's taken me six weeks toget here. Truthfully, I really doubted it would... 

Oh, and Rupert has stopped rejecting water, so that's another win!

Baby steps, baby steps.

Aye, Cap'n! They totally suck.

This was timed to coincide with me finally starting to eat... And get more that 30g protein per day too, so I was all: GREAT, TO LOSE WEIGHT I HAVE TO EAT NOTHING. But getting more food in made me feel physically better... and I chose to feel better and get back to living, hoping the weight would get on with dropping too. (But I had doubts!)

Awesome! Water definitely is key. I use my fitbit app to track my water intake, because otherwise I would forget!! :D Congrats!

Thank you too!
