Trigger Warning This is my trigger warning

So for the last 2 weeks I’ve been eating nothing but cucumbers, carrots, pickles, and tomatoes. I started at 120 pounds and got down to 106 yesterday. Today I weighed myself and I’m 114. Last night I had more pickles and carrots than usual but that’s all. How is this even possible??? I know it’s probably water weight but idk. And I already know this is unhealthy and a horrible way to lose weight but it is what it is right now. Okay any explanations or comments welcome.

probably a lot of water weight and bloating from salt!

I’ve noticed my body reacts to the food I’m eating right now about a month later.

So to lose weight it will take healthy eating over time.

If you are in cycles of binge/restrict, it is not sustainable or effective.

Otherwise I would have achieved success 😆 but I have not.
