    @texasfarmer You've done great, but the painful headaches are a high price if keto is the cause. I hope changing your diet alleviates the headaches. As long as you keep moving, CICO will work and keep up your momentum. You'll get there!
    My daughter has done well with keto, but she just returned from a cruise and said the skin on her leg is numb. I don't think the diet would cause that, but I'm concerned about what the problem might be.

    @eminater You've done very well! You're teetering on the edge of onederland! Hooray for you!

    @FarmerCarla - I felt better this morning. Still had issues going to sleep last night and the restless legs but I hope that will pass soon. I am still trying to watch the carbs and sugar intake but take it down SEVERAL notches. I will say the first 8 days of Keto invigorating me and got me to cut out the crazy out of control snacking.

    I hope your daughter figures out her leg issue. The unknown is always a bit concerning.

    @texasfarmer Thanks. Glad you're feeling better and hope you get the sleep you need soon. Resisting snacks is a big plus! My husband eats keto foods with me, but I add carbs (rice/pasta/sweet potatoes/sweets) to his, since he's thin. He's had problems jerking at night and hasn't slept well for years. A few months ago, I ordered a magnesium supplement (magnesium bisglycinate chelate) that he takes at night now, and he's sleeping better through the night and not waking me up with his jerking. His back is in bad shape, but an implanted neurostimulator gets him through his days. Praying you'll find the methods that work for you!

    @mlhopp93 To do low carb when traveling, start by eliminating the bread and potatoes. I order burgers with no bun, Subway salads, steak or salmon and broccoli with a salad. You can do it!

    @texasfarmer I’m sorry you’re giving up on Keto. I think what you were experiencing was mainly an electrolyte imbalance. Best of luck with CICO.

    @ghy5 A true plateau is when your weight stays the same for 4 WEEKS. Hang in there and keep doing what you’re doing.

    @shunggie LOL at pulling your pants up every time you stand. I took my elastic waist jeans to Oklahoma when we visited DD#1 in October and had this problem. When she told me they were so big it looked like I had “a load in my pants” I put them away - FOR GOOD! Hope your power has been restored!

    @hoshaugh73 I’m guessing that increase is from what you had over the weekend. I find it generally takes 2-3 days for my intake to show on the scale.

    @deepwoodslady, Donna, the situation sounds frightening! I'm glad to hear you and everyone else are physically okay. I hope you can get a handle on your emotional stress very soon. {{{BigHugs}}}💓

    @amfmmama I have noticed that when I scroll up the page, the WOO is right where my finger hits the screen. I generally catch it when it happens but it is very annoying in any case! I noticed a WOO earlier in my reading (I didn’t read or post on Monday) but I don’t think it was yours. In this case, a WOOHOO would have been more appropriate than an OHNO.

    @StefanieBerger88 Do you clean your humidifier with bleach? I know my little one grows mold if I don’t.

    Yep, @quiltingjaine, I've heard that about humidifiers, that you need to be scrupulous in keeping them free of mold so that they don't spread the mold through the air. @StefanieBerger88, I hope you figure out a cause!

    Dear Stuckup, errr I mean @texasfarmer, you made me chuckle. Your headache could be from dropping carbs too rapidly. Perhaps cut back on carbs slowly as you do CICO.
