Week 16 on Keto

As a result of my weight being stagnant for a couple of weeks, I decided to come out of Ketosis and then go through 5 days of no carbs (as much as possible) this week. Coming out of Ketosis at the end of last week shot my weight up and then it crashed down with the 5 days no carbs.  I lost 2.4KG this week with a total net weight loss of 10.8KG. This is not the lowest I have been on the Keto challenge, I am however feeling happy with the results of the no carbs and plan to do it again in about a month or so. Below is what I ate and did this week Day 106 Weight(kg):  78.2 Breakfast:    Skipped  Lunch:          1 cup of cooked spicy ground beef + 3 Tbs of butter  Supper:         1 cup of cooked spicy ground beef + 3 Tbs of butter Exercise:       30 minutes exercise on Lift App                           1 hour walk on the trails  Comments:   0.6KG drop.
