11/3 summary -
Logged Food:
Exercise as Planned?: No - Uggg. Tonight for sure.
At or Under Carb Level: 26/20g net
At or Under Calorie Limit: Over 100 cals by noon. Splurged on a big breakfast, skipped dinner
Planned Day Ahead: I think I've got today covered
I might try a Zumba class tonight. LOL. I've only done one group class since I started this and early on, so I wasn't able to keep up. Not to mention I always go left when everyone else is going right. At least I'll be moving.
Have an interview candidate coming in for lunch. That means I have to eat in the café. I brought my lunch and I feel uncomfortable eating in front of others. I'll probably just get a salad and dump my tuna on top. I'm on track for my 1 pound loss this week. Hoot. Have a great day.0 -

No leg cramps since focusing on getting 4000mg sodium daily!

I feel you on the scale thing. My milestone was at 152. I'm currently at 153.8, no reason I can figure. Not doing anything different. Urgh. Whatever.
Congrats on the smaller clothes, btw.0 -
11/4:
Weight 275.1 (cautious goal to stay at or below 275 through the holidays)
Didn't cheat any yesterday (stress leading to lots of cheating lately, if I can't knock it out, at least work hard to limit it and don't let it get out of control)
Went to the gym yesterday (continue to exercise regularly no matter what happens with food)0 -
Count me in! My ultimate goal is to lose these 15 lbs that have been refusing to leave me for the past 2 years. With the holidays, I'll be happy to not gain. Thanksgiving is pretty easy. The turkey is a no-brainer. My MIL does make a mean stuffing, though. I'm sure I'll have a small taste. I usually make brussels sprouts gratin. I use pork rinds in place of bread crumbs on top. Yum. Probably a little mashed sweet potato, I'll make that with just butter and a little cream. I won't touch those sweet sticky things. Dessert? Maybe. I could always make a Keto pumkin cheesecake. My lack of progress for 2 years is really pissing me off. I don't know what else I can do. I'm going to drop my calories back down a little bit for a while and keep on ketoing.0

Just found this thread today. Count me in!
It's back to basics for me too -- I've been at a "stall" for the past two months, which I finally traced to two new foods that kicked me out of keto. Turns out it wasn't a stall after all, just a little carb creep. I cut them out last week, and now I'm losing again. So, my goals for November are:
1. Stay away from the sugar alcohol candies and those lightly breaded chicken tenders that I love so much. Just like all that junk food I used to indulge in, they may taste good but they are certainly not good to me.
2. Convict Conditioning calisthenics every other day.
3. Starting weight was 183.4 on 11/1; I want to get down to 174.6 by Thanksgiving, which will put me at an even 50 lbs lost since April 15.
4. Back to the basics- bouillon broth every morning, take my magnesium, avoid wheat, and stay under 30 carbs a day. The formula worked all these months, so I need to stop trying to find ways to cheat the rules.
So far so good. As of this morning I'm down 2 lbs!0 -

Week 1:
Survived Halloween - no slip ups
Birthday this week - no treats just usual keto plan
Goal for holidays is to lose down to desired weight. 7 more pounds.
Also to rework maintenence plan strategy, which was a fail in Sept and Oct.
Exercise goal is to increase daily activity and motion. Also to add vanity exercises for areas that need a little lifting and/or flexibility. No rigid, structured plans that I never follow anyway.
So far, all systems are go! Attitude is good, and I feel that success for this extended season is in the air. It doesn't have to be about food, cheats and treats.
It can be about fun, friends, dancing, decorating, crafts, dressing up and feeling all right!
