    1. Carbs under 45: no pumpkin for me.

    2. Quiet, peaceful, restful, at home day. Spent time reflecting about my current body/mind status. Feelings are in line, acknowkedged. Coping skills utilized are: talking with a friend, watching a movie, basic household upkeep, painting, moderate retail therapy.
    Good enough.

    3. Will weigh in on Wednesday.

    First challenge I'm joining...well, first of @baconslave 's challenges I'm joining... Lol

    Daily Goals:

    1. Drink 10 glasses of water a day
    2. Keep up that salt intake!
    3. Eat at maintenance (and for goodness sake stop restricting!)
    4. Keep carbs 20g< total
    5. Weight lifting 5x a week for 60min MINIMUM -No skipping workouts! (I may add some extra classes, but I need some information on them first)
    6. Log honestly
    7. Sleep 8 hours


    Notes - my goals are building a little muscle at the moment, not losing weight. I've been in a carb-craving rut lately, which is the reason for the super low carbs.

    And then the workouts - well, I like working out. Lol, I may decide to work out for 2 hours a day

    I'm late to the party :(

    Daily

    1. Log everything accurately
    2. Stay Hydrated (I don't set a hard and fast rule on this. I use pee color! (Sorry TMI))
    3. Reach protein macro (This is really hard for me)
    4. Work on my fear of fat (Appropriate for this time of year)

    10/1 = Yesterday's Check in -

    1. Log everything accurately - FAIL ... we went out with friends to a restaurant we are not familiar with and I had no idea where to start to log that.
    2. Stay Hydrated - Check
    3. Reach protein macro (This is really hard for me) - *sighs* FAIL - I know I can't be certain but since I usually do I probably did here too.
    4. Work on my fear of fat (Appropriate for this time of year) - Check!! - I ate 28 grams of full fat cheese yesterday AND already this morning have had cheese and full fat yogurt!

    1.Carbs under 20: pumpkin for me!

    2.Slept in, another lazy day, facebooking, TV Halloween movie, food is good. Have a couple projects if I feel like motivating...and I might. Mood feels like it shifted back to weekday safety mode and that is always a relief.
    No big plans for this week yet, Wed and Fri dance nights. Days are looking like homebound projects to conserve cashola.
    It looks and feels like moody autumn outside...a little bittersweet, leaf colors changing a bit, some falling.
    Not noticing any of the emotions that trigger my binges in action today, so I'm hoping for a nice slide into keto land for this week. Another pumpkin for me.

    3.Weigh in on Wednesday.

    4.Minimal activity today. Somehow that feels okay. No pumkin, though.

    Hi all! Let's do this.

    SW: 165
    CW: 159
    GW range: 135-140

    Goals:
    1. Keep cals under 1400 (plus exercise calories)
    2. Keep carbs under 25 net
    3. Exercise 4-5 days (strength 2x and walk 2x, 1 wildcard)

    My fall keto tip: make bulletproof coffee with butter, coconut oil and add pumpkin pie spice ... I call it my "pumpkin spice nah-tay"
