    Lost almost a half pound, but reality is I messed up.
    6 pb cookies at movie night. And 3 cocktails in response to an unhappy, un expected connection with an ex.
    Hope to let it go today and be done with it.

    Yesterday marked a 2lb loss from the week before so I expected the scale to go up some this morning. I weigh daily and this is common. However I was down .5lb. :/:)

    I am in as well cause evenings are my downfall!!
    I have pre-logged the past 3 days and more or less followed the plan. My carbs are just around 50g right now but I want to go back to 20 to 30.

    Currently on day 4 of my journey and managed to keep carbs at 42g (31g net if you subtract the fiber). That is my lowest carb day so far. My ratios are 59% fat, 27% protein, and 14% carbs. Is this good?

    Are you getting results? I'd say from the tread you started you're getting excellent results. Your ratios are fine. It's working. Thumbs up.

    Today was the first time my macros worked out almost perfect. I do try but it's taking time to get them proportioned properly. Trying to stay away from the scale, can say my body feels better.

    Yesterday was a bit higher around 60g of carbs but today it's been going very well sticking to the planned meals. I should be 22g net/33g total which is my best in months...thanks to the accountability check-in

    Well the headaches from what I expect was another round of the keto flu is gone and I am feeling good!
    I am down 6lbs since starting this daily thread post and back at my lowest weight so far! now to keep it in check again!
    "cheating" is so not worth it! (by this I mean, several days of off the rails eating!)
    Thanks all for helping me be accountable!

    Day 5 check-in! Pre-logged my dinner and my carbs were at 52g net today which I expected because I had fruit with every meal today... But I'm still feeling great. This is only week 1 and my body is easing into this lower carb lifestyle well. My ratios were 58% fat, 24% carb, 18% protein.

    Ugh, just inhaled two large pieces of cake. One was chocolate cake made with mayo, and the other was a lemon coconut. Both tasted amazing at the time (hence the reason my "I'll just have 2 bites of each" failed) but now I just want to scrape my tongue and mouth because it tastes and feels all gross and chemical-y.

    Another good day, at least for my food intake. I'm heading off to see my son for the day tomorrow and looking forward to that. He knows about my WOE and is going to be cooking for me.

    That's really nice to have that support system! :) Enjoy seeing your son!

    I need accountability as well. I do fine at work but start snacking as soon as I get home!! Not good. I'm loving the LC life although I'm nervous about the high fat part due to high rate of heart disease in family. I'm looking for friends to help me through this WOE

    Today is Day2 for me. And so far so good. I boiled a bunch of eggs to have in the frig for when the "craving" strikes. I have a headache today, but I assume it is from lack of sugar! I am a sugar-aholic....which has been my main struggle and why I am attempting the keto lifestyle.

    Upping your sodium intake should help with the headache from the Keto flu

    Have more sodium! It'll help. People recommended the Nuun tablets to me (they dissolve in water and provide electrolytes).
