I need to work on getting my fiber up, but other then that yesterday went well. Work has been extra crazy the last few days (and based on my schedule, I'll be working late every day this week
) so I am really trying to avoid stress eating. I prepped a bunch of chicken yesterday. My goal is to snack on that to avoid the carbs. 0 -

I try to do the same with skin-on chicken thighs but there's never enough fat on those to satiate me. I always end up either making a couple pounds of steak tips or breaking down the chicken into chicken salad with mayo, mustard and bacon. Also, pork rinds are amazing for avoiding carbs and being a snacky food. My local walmart has the best selection of flavors.1 -

I did bad I went over my net goal of carbs. I just can't resist my buffalo wings and the extra ranch. At least my fats was very high for yesterday. I'm trying to find the bright side.0 -

Weekends are hard. Your numbers for Monday and Tuesday look good so at least you are back on track
Thanks. Hopefully I can stay on track through this weekend and next week. My middle son is coming home and we are going to a concert with friends Saturday night. Then next week is my youngest son's birthday. He wants carry out pizza for his birthday dinner and of course Chocolate Peanut Butter cake.

Little bit higher on the carbs then I would normally be, but I made some red kohlrabi and black kale in the cast iron skillet on the grill last night... it came out so good. I do not even like kale but it had this great crisp texture. I have been loving my new smoker/grill, using it almost everynight. Took just over an hour to smoke the chicken thighs and about 10 minutes on the veggies
Had a good lifting session last night and a successful weigh in... 2lbs gone! Since starting this plan I have had a couple friends and co-workers switching to Keto seeing how well it is going for me right now. I just hope it keeps on working so well

Definitely too high (1 small slice of pizza and a teensy bit of serial -- I know). But I'm not stressing about it. My cals were pretty low and somehow my weight is down today so not a big deal. I'm on track to have a really low carb day today so that should help me shed any water retention.0 -

Not a bad day food wise, did not get to the gym because I was coaching a lacrosse practice, but I did get a good walk in at lunch time and in practice I was running around at practice. Tonight I am planning to kind of take it easy and I will hit the gym early Saturday morning.0 -

Hi, this is the first time ive joined in on the community. Ive been eating a keto diet for the last two weeks. I started off at 152.6 lbs and today i am 144.2 lbs. I have been eating 18g of carbs a day, im not sure what net carbs are lol sorry. Really pleased with progress so far but to all the ladies, can i ask if it messes your hormones up re: spotting sorry lads for the TMI. Thankyou in advance for any advice given. Im only 32 but have bought some vitamin supplements designed for menopausal women as they balance hormones lol x0
