how in a day? great loss 🥰👏 

My weight gain has been crazy lately. I put on 4.5kg in 2 weeks!! I fasted for 24 hours which makes the scales come down quickly but after my usual day of eating today I expect to be up again tomorrow. Then I'll attempt another 24 hour fast. I feel like I'm getting back into my groove and will hopefully be back down to 60 kg by the end of this month. Maintanance is so hard to get right. Just when I thought I had made it and could relax a little bam!! Have 6 kg back!!  

I'm not sure if you slipped off Keto in that break, but if you did, it would probably explain why it seemed that you put it back on quickly but don't forget that a lot of it was likely just fluid retention and not really "weight" weight. Was the first 24 hr fast tough going and did you end up doing the follow up one? If you did slip off Keto, and found the 24 hr fast a slog to get through, if it happens again some time don't beat yourself up but get back on and try the 24 hr fast after you are back fat adapted a bit and it may be a bit easier to get through. Also I looked back at your journey and it looks really impressive. I am a firm believer that Keto/Carni is the way for me and I noticed that around April last year something seemed to just kick in for your progress. You don't happen to remember if you made some sort of change around then do you? Also, Trish - thumbs up, you are such a great supporter of everone on here, I reckon you help a lot of people who might otherwise become despondant with their attempts to improve their lives 😉
