April 2018 Challenge

I stepped on my Tanita scale this morning and it said I lost 15 pounds, 10% of my body fat, gained 25 pounds of pure muscle and my chronological age was 18…… APRIL FOOLS. I actually only lost 1 pound by weighing in at 168.0.
My goal for April is 5 pounds, counting the one today, even though 6 of those days were in March. Five pounds will be an average of one pound per week, as there are 5 Sundays in April this year. In addition, I have other goals for April:
1. To “Eat Intuitively” at least the first week of April. That means no logging , tracking and worrying about food for a week. I aim to eat what I feel is right macros and amount, eat only when hungry, stop when full and fast naturally between eating windows.
2. I’m going to work on doing 8 no kidding, CLEAN pull ups. With the help and inspiration from some of our thread’s members I think I’ve figured out how to post proof.

Last month was my first month on Keto. I didn't reach my goal but I lost 8.1 lbs and I consider that a big win. It took me that month to learn what it is to be in the state of ketosis, though I'm sure there is more to know. I fell out of ketosis once and it took about 5 days to get back in it. I have been using the keto strips to help gauge what is going on - I think they are a useful tool in the beginning. All of my friends know that I am eating Keto and it's been a huge help to let them know what I'm doing. I find that most people are really interested and have thought of doing low carb eating. My neighbors, who were doing Keto, got back into it and we have since had several dinners together. My goal for this month is a solid 10lb loss. I adore this group and I look forward to everyone's progress. Welcome to all the new folks. If you stick with it, it works!

I have already found a low carb/low calorie chocolate mug cake recipe that I tested tonight and is pretty good, it should help keep those cravings at bay (especially since my bday is this month). LET'S DO THIS, WE ALL GOT THIS!
I would love that recipe!
Happy Easter, all!

Down half a pound from last week after having the stomach bug for a few days and dropping 3 pounds. Sure wish those would have stayed off! Oh, well. I managed to leave some of it behind. Yay!

It's snowing and I'm super tired and sore from a 17 hour pottery studio marathon yesterday. I want to stay in bed all day but have loads of paperwork and responsabilities to do. Sigh...3 -

HAPPY EASTER!!!!!!!!! I'm having such a great day! We just hosted family over for dinner. Food was delicious! I ate small amounts of ALL the things. If you know me, you know I make the decisions and NO REGRETS!
@stormywxs288 I'll join your 1 week challenge. I'm logging nothing until next Sunday. I did this recently and it was a bust, but I'm always up for a challenge.

I'm gonna try again. Last month was a failure due to my lack of willpower. Too many drunken nights and cheats. Only lost 4 of 10lbs for March.

Don't be too hard on yourself. Stick to it - if you keep going, those 4 lbs will turn into 40 lbs. Heck, it's no failure to enjoy your lifestyle AND lose an average of 1 lb per week!4 -
1 week of keto down! Didn't weight before I started so excited to see next weeks weight. I'm not sure how to get to the spreadsheet.
