I'm certain those are one of my biggest weaknesses and they start my day off poorly which leads to wicked carb cravings all day. I had one yesterday but today I WAS NOT HUNGRY. So there was really no need for one.
Yayyyyy!!!0 -
It's not a victory yet but I KNOW it is going to happen. My numbers are going to be good today, I will NOT have any M&Ms or cookies or any other sweets. I won't go to bed with disgust and frustration over my weakness, because today I am going to be Wonder Woman and conquer those inanimate "fake" enemies known as sweets!!!

I didn't realize that erythitol was a natural sweetener; I've only seen in in Atkins things and thought that "sugar alcohol" was another version of artificial sweetener. Thanks - I now have more things to consider eating!
It is a sugar alcohol, but not an artificial sweetener. It's naturally derived, I believe from sugar. It's worth giving a try. I don't do so well with the artificial stuff.0 -
I was victorious in that I didn't have ANY sweets yesterday, which is a huge win because my office is a minefield of naughtiness!! My numbers weren't perfect, as I was seriously more hungry than I wanted to be, but it was all healthy things and I'll count that as a win!It's not a victory yet but I KNOW it is going to happen.

Little victory this morning: walked to the grocery store & back instead of driving (1 mile round trip). This entailed pushing this small cart with 40 lbs of litter up this huge hill4 -

That's awesome! I know how hard it is to resist the call of the sugar beast! Great job! Let this victory only add to your inner strength to defeat the beast!4 -

Today's victory: put on a bikini today. Will see if my shorts and tank come off but I will count it.8

I shopped in a normal department store at the mall today and fit in a smaller size than I even expected! I've been shopping at plus size specialty stores and primarily online for 8 years. Albeit a US 18 is still a "plus size" but it's a plus sizes that you can find in most major stores, unlike the US 28 I was last year.9

I have survived an entire week of keto eating...mostly. Yesterday I had a 6" sub that put my carbs at 80, but I water fasted this morning until noon and went for a 45 minute power walk...between that and feeling fine, my weight didn't fluctuate up at all (even though I not only ate more carbs but like 3000 calories) so I think I'm in the clear. But anyway! ONE WEEK! Woohoo! I didn't restrict my eating, other than my fast today, and I lost 4.2 pounds. I'm won over.4

Same here. Today marks the end of my first week and I think I did pretty well overall. I've stayed under 30 grams (shocking) and lost 6 pounds despite battling a constant sweet tooth and french fry craving. Quite exhilarated.

The little victory for me today has been keeping myself INactive enough. It's been amazingly difficult! My surgery recovery has been a breeze - so much so that I completely forget that I'm actually still in the midst of healing from a pretty major physical trauma and NEED to take it easy. It's freakin hard!!
Congrats of being INactive. Good on you, and my best wishes are with you as you recover0 -
I ate fresh salmon and green veg for brunch to get back on track - I feel so satiated, am hoping that will re set me.1

Fitting into the stuff you can buy at Old Navy in store. For the past year I've been stuck shopping online because they don't have plus sizes in store here. I bought some shirts and tanks today and most of them look great--the rest will in 10 lbs!2
