My carbs are somewhat-accidentally netting under 50 (few cravings = not eating much "bad" stuff). Just got ketone test strips and curious to see the results. Happy with the new WOE.

Sorry I looked online for it this morning and couldn't find it again. However I saw several others in my search similar to it and even more that I was tempted to buy. I just googled keto t-shirts and was overwhelmed with choices.

Checking in a little early, as I’ll be seeing very little of my house this weekend thanks to a soccer tournament. Still up a bit from 2 weeks ago (not surprised by that considering both hormonal/pms type factors and the frequency with which I’ve allowed myself to go over my carb goal the past few weeks), but did just barely manage to hit my goal for the month.

OMG I've lost 5.6 pounds this month It was worth sleeping through Italy! Actually what I'm really pleased about is that I've been back almost a week, I'm feeling better, much more like me and managed not to regain what I lost while I was ill, usually that would go straight back on and then some! Now I need to think about July and as that starts tomorrow I'd better decide what my July goals are and get organised!5 -

I didn't meet my June goal, however I lost 10 lbs. So, I consider that a win. For some reason I rarely lose during the last week of the month. Weird, but still I feel better than ever! See you guys in the July challenge!3 -

Thanks @tinaainsworth ! I've tried jogging on and off over the years...but its just too hard on these old knees! I dont want to do more damage to them so I've decided that walking & hiking is just as good.1 -

Had bariatric surgery in 2013 because I was almost chair bound at 317# and 61 years old. Reached 138.0 in Apr 2015 and felt twenty years younger. Then slowly, insidiously started gaining again. Fought it like crazy, keenly aware that a pound a month would take under ten years to disable me again. Three years in and discovered LCHF WOE in May 2018 and the fighting stopped
- 178.0 May 2018
- 167.0 06/17/18
- 164.5 06/30/18
I started Lo-Carb WOE to fight cravings and weight gain and am loving how healthy it feels. Since cravings don't drive me to eat junk now, I can choose protein and vegetables. I wasn't trying for ketosis (carb goal = 100) but it's resulting from these choices. Just got some ketone test strips and scored a "trace" response. That's something.
Nice.

I made a great discovery a few days ago. I have had my suspicions about conspiratorial tendencies in my scale. My husband was the one who rooted out the truth when he weighed himself before taking a shower and then for the heck of it weighed again after his shower and discovered that taking showers makes him gain weight. 3 pounds! He vowed never to take a shower again!
I was so excited last Wednesday morning to discover that I had met my June goal of 157! Wednesday night before I went to bed I had gained 5.5 pounds! Not to worry, because during the night all of the weight magically disappeared. But in two hours after not eating or drinking anything and making two trips to the bathroom I had gained 3 more pounds!
Note to self (and anyone else who may feel hostility from your scale): never trust a scale you don't know the history of. My husband had no idea when he purchased it (we've been married 11 years) and thought it might be 25 years old. I'm happy to report that now have a new scale that I'm confident is much more reliable. It's hard enough to lose weight without your scale working against you! I have no idea whether I actually hit my June goal the other day, (likely it was just my former scale playing a cruel joke)
but I'll take the small victory of having finally broken through the 160s. Bring on July!

Have a great time in Nebraska! I'm living the good life in that great state. You are on a roll, girl! Wish I had a walking partner like you!0
