    I couldn't find the post, but I think you recommended KT tape for foot pain? I got some and hope it will help. My foot feels a bit better and its raining here today which cancelled our pickleball game. Probably a good thing to give my foot a rest.

    @goodhealthbestlife hang in there my friend. You are doing great & you‘ve got the right mindset, consistency. I think we all feel that discouragement from time to time. Remember it‘s going to Yo-Yo some, this is part of why I‘m not excited about the daily weigh in. It is helpful though to see others experiencing similar results and I try to use that uptick as motivation. I tell the scale “oh no you didn’t” & use that frustration to power those next workouts, “I’ll show you”. There is no expiration date on your goals, take a deep breath & try, try again. I believe this is why so many people’s posts here talk about it being a lifestyle rather than a diet.

    It worked so quickly for me that I haven’t needed the three rolls I ordered from Amazon!

    Tracking food and weight daily taught me that what I eat today will not affect my weight tomorrow but may take 2 or 3 days to show on the scale. As far as DIET (a four letter word) - those are things you go on to lose weight and then you go back to eating the way you used to and are mystified that you regain. When I started Keto/LCHF almost 5 years ago I realized I was going to have to do it for life. That’s why I now refer to it as my WOE (way of eating) - it is a lifestyle and one that I can live with.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    6/6: - DNW - backpacking
    6/7: 133.2 - I was super hungry yesterday after a very long hike with a 20 pound pack on. Even with the pack on, I was carrying 20 pounds less than when I started this journey 9 months ago. Imagine hauling around almost 40 pounds more day in, day out. I stayed within my calories, but once again did go high on sugar, carbs and fat.
    6/8: 133.2 - Although I’m holding steady weight wise, I don’t feel like I am. Haven’t taken any waist or hip measurements, but my clothes feel just a *tad* snugger. Ate past my limit yesterday and I’m not sure I was actually hungry in the end.
    6/9: 132.9 - I was busy making bread yesterday so my whole schedule was thrown off and didn’t do everything (eat, workout) until much later than normal.
    6/10: 132.9 - normal workouts. Carb heavy eating.
    6/11: 134.9 - Went out for Thai food last night - all the way from appetizers, drinks to dessert. Got my workout in despite the 95+ F degree weather.
    6/12: -
    6/13: -
    6/14: -
    6/15: -

    Total round weight loss/gain to date from EO last round: - 0.3 pounds

    Whoops - forgot to update my total loss/gain:

    Total round weight loss/gain to date from EO last round: + 1.7 pounds

    Thanks for the encouragement! I needed that. Especially today since the scale stayed the same, again, despite a 20 mile bike ride. I am taking a deep breath and remembering that there is no timetable here--its a day by day way of eating and moving that will bring me health for the rest of my life. I'm grateful I can move and do and have the means to buy healthy food for myself and my family.

    Really helps to read everyone's posts!

    6/9, 6/10, 6/11, 6/12 ---182.8
