I am so mad at myself for becoming so lazy with my Keto. I have been stretching my carbs more and more and am just frustrated, with no one but myself.
I need a kick in the @$$.
Needing a place to check in each day and keep myself accountable. Starting today, I packed a lunch full of pepperoni, sliced chicken and cheese. Started my morning with coffee and HWC.
My nights were always my downfall and I had been doing so well, but I find myself wanting to go back to old ways.
Just got to shake it off and get back at it!

    You can do it!

    Nights are my downfall too. I do great at work all day, great at dinner actually thanks to a very supportive husband, but after dinner I've been having a glass or two of wine...which doesn't work *for me*. I know, I need to just stop buying the stuff.

    I'll join! Today is my first day of keto after months of see sawing back and forth, and I'm up ten pounds. So, I'm all for some accountability!

    I'm Lori, pleased to meet you!

    I'll join in too! I've been consistent on not eating badly for 3 or 4 days now. I'm pretty determined and trying prelogging foods.

    Ok- I'm in too. .... I did 10 days straight great, then was hit with medical stuff that screwed me up. I always have issues getting back into it. Tomorrow is day one--- again.

    Been there, done that, many times. :D The important thing is that we pull ourselves back up and give it another try. Let's all kick some *kitten* here!

    Day 1 had been a success. I just need to get through the dreaded evening cravings. I am pretty full and satisfied so I think I will be ok :)

    4/20/17 - So far today I have had coffee with heavy cream and will have 1-2 more through the day. I have coconut milk/chia pudding with blackberries, hemp hearts and cocoa nibs for lunch, and will have a bunless double cheeseburger for dinner. THIS IS OUR DIET PEOPLE!!!

    Delicious.

    4/20- rough night, but not going to use it as an excuse -- successful start to the day. yay me.
    I decided to start the day with steak. feels like a good decision. :-)
    weighed myself, not great, but not horrible. I need to have my starting point accurate for future weigh ins.

    Night ended with about 2 cups of micro popcorn.... a new day today. Starting with coffee and HWC - have some tasty burgers waiting at home for me for lunch.

    I'm down for this.
    I fell way off track cause my man and I have been working a lot, buying a home, and I had a birthday that led to a lot of drinking and bar food.
    I was up about 8lb on the 10th, and yesterday my bathroom scale just stopped working so I don't know where I'm at now. I feel amazing though after ten days I'm sleeping well again and have the energy you exercise.
    Going strong again, prepping meals for the week. Need to keep at it when we move... :)

    I have found that I have to keep popcorn and nacho cheese sauce out of the house for the first 10 days or I just give in to them.... I don't know why, but they are my weakness.

    Day two..so far I'm smashing it! I've done five laps around the pond so far, cleaned the bathroom, finished the laundry, put the roast in the crockpot, threw some thighs in the oven and now I'm taking a break on the couch. I've eaten eggs and bacon so far.

    I let myself get wild yesterday, the day started so well but went to hell really quickly. Today is a better day. Will only have a small bite of the dark chocolate

    I'll join! I have done a ton of yoyo dieting over the years and am now at yet another attempt at maintenance. I'm thrilled that it is going very well so far, but could definitely use the accountability since I've often been better at losing or gaining but not so great at maintaining long-term!

    yesterday was good. however I ended with an apple and peanut butter. The peanut butter I can do while keto because it doesn't seem to cause any issues with me, but the apple has lots of sugars, but the rest of the day was good. I haven't had a bowel movement in over a week though... so I am feeling kind of crappy. I increased my magnesium yesterday so hopefully things start moving soon.
    Have a busy weekend coming up, but focused on staying on track!!

    I'll join in, yesterday I was all foggy from lack of sodium. Today started my day with a 1500mcg of sodium laced broth. So, far, I haven't been really tested. I'm sure that's going to come eventually but I hope that I'll be well enough in before that happens. My diabetes scares me, scares me to the point I don't even want to know about it or think about it. I get a bit panicked as I read about it. Knowing I'm doing something to help myself in a really big way makes that fear lessen. Eventually I'll be able to develop more knowledge about it. Believe it or not until I watched Butter Bob, I didn't even understand resting glucose rate. Today I'm making an effort to eat more protein and keep my salts up.

    Im in an interesting space. Work and family life is incredibly insanr right now. We never had a slow season this year. Ive shifted to maintainence for a bit. I hav never been successful when i try to maintain. In this limited time i have been. But, im also making some less than stellar choices. For example I chose 4 mini peanutbutter cups ad my breakfast snd provided I eat no carbs today I'll stay within all my self determined acceptable ranges.

    So I've set the first of May as my reset and back to weightloss mode date.

    I wasn't good yesterday because I was at the fair, but I made that conscious choice and I'm not punishing myself for it. I'm just continuing making better choices today. Tis a new day ^^

    Thank you!!
    I had another good day, carb wise. Calories.... Not so much, but shrugs, I didn't eat sugar.
    I'm considering it a win!

    Day 4 done and nothing but success. I'm so thrilled. Two dinners out and neither time did I make a not good decision on food.

    Another good day for me. My work has me gone away from home for 36 hours at a time and occaisionally more but I weighed everything, packed it all along and only forgot bouillon. I will just make a couple of salt shots until I get home tomorrow evening. I really felt I'd stumble planning for longer trips away from home. I'm keeping things very simple for now as I get to know this woe and that makes it a bit easier as well.

    I went on a fast yesterday, eating below 500cals. I'm a good lb lighter today! Going to celebrate with some McDonalds (big mac large fries) Pizza express double-stack Pizza, and clotted cream banana cheesecake, followed by Buffalo grill sweet and sticky spare ribs, baked potato with beans and black forest gateau!

    Yes, I am kidding.

    Am just having my morning BPC, and won't eat anything again until this evening, when we are dining at Mother's. She's really great - making melon and Prosciutto starter, with coq au vin, and button mushrooms main, and 'cavolo nero' side veg, followed by zabaione - but I will eat very little of that, so she's really doing her best to keep things on a level!

    I had a stomach flu for the past 36 hours. It was brutal but I guess I'll just call it a weekend fast. ;) my hubby is about to give me an IV because I am so dehydrated.

    My three year old had it too. It is ridiculous to think a three year old should throw up into a toilet I guess. #laundryallday

    Hopefully today is back to normal.
