CW: 224.4 lbs
I have to apologize to the group. I had a very bad February due to nobody's fault but my own. I wasn't focused and home activities get very busy this time of year so I was using it as an excuse to not pay enough attention to myself. For the past few days I have been more focused on my weight loss journey and I'm committed to continuing the focus to help myself and the group. You guys are doing so great and I have not been the supportive co-captain that we all need. Great thing we have Lisa @HASWLRS to keep up motivated.
For March I commit to being supportive of the group both in my interaction with the conversation and weight loss to help us all achieve our goals.
@pkg1998, Pam, glad to have you back in the fold!! See, being involved with this group always brings you back (eventually) to the surface when you start to go under!! Here's to a great March, going forward from here!!1 -

Exercise: yes – Leslie Sansone’s – 1 Miracle Mile – Strength Training Mile and 5 minute Belly Blasting Walk, and walked to get grandson from bust stop – 27mins (I go long way to get some exercise – it is generally a 5 min walk.)

Happy 17th birthday 🎂 to my adorable., awesome son5 -
I am really struggling here I can’t seem to get back on my keto plan the IF is going good but the low carb is a wash 🧼
Obviously 🙄 the scale moving in the wrong direction isn’t enough motivation
What do you do to find motivation? I was down to only 3 lbs before hitting goal weight now I am 8 -10 lbs from my goal
I know work is a factor but I am stronger than that . Mind over matter but how do I get there again
Help I need motivation4 -
Oh dear, posting my weight today, but weighed in later in the day.
Last week- 210

Is it possible you have had a lot of sodium, or monthly fluctuation causing weight gain? It may be easier for you to just weigh/log food and stay under calories. If you've been eating more carbs than usual, your body is holding on to extra carbs and the water carbs like to latch on to...
You'll see the scale move If you lower the carbs and drink more water. You're so close to goal that it will take a while to make it there. You can do it!!! Just stay focused, even though it may be difficult!
ETA: I do not follow a "diet", I just weigh and log all my food to make sure that I stay in a deficit. If I have a higher weight, I look back at what the past couple days have been like, and I will push forward from there!3 -

Checking in here is a huge motivator! Logging here as well so you can always see where you are in your macros. I sometimes get discouraged too. When that happens Ill usually watch fellow keto youtuber videos. Or go into a keto group here on MFP.
When i first got on keto i lost 25 lbs then went on a cruise and lost my way back to diet and since then i was stuck between gaining back 5-12 lbs for about a year. 3 months ago i really researched keto, trying to find what foods to eat that I wouldn't get bored with. Watching weightloss stories, tips, tricks, learning about meal prep. (I was obsessed) Eventually i just found it natural to just start it up again and when i added the logging it started getting easier. You HAVE to log. I just can't express that enough. On another less diet-y note:if for whatever reason im not losing i just step back a sec and think about how good i feel. No high and low mood swings, no extreme cravings. Think about that ..keep it in the forefront then take a look at your logs from day to day and look for any trends. Switch something up in your macros. Alter your calories. Sometimes your body just gets used to it shrugs and says "Ehhh shes just doing the same ish every day, so why should we work harder to lose weight? We're clmfortable leave us alone!"2 -
