    I’m back!
    After a very emotionally difficult holiday, I’m focusing on myself and my health again. Losing my mom on Christmas Eve made it difficult to be as strict as I usually am. Not at home, not my food or cooking, liquor...not a great 2 weeks. However, I didn’t gain, amazingly.
    Not sure how much change I’ll show from today to Sunday, but these challenges help keep me focused. You all are very inspiring!

    So i thought with the new year I was gonna have so much motivation. And so far that motivation is not there!!! I don't know what's up. I did horrible things to food for 3 days straight. I am back full force on keto now though. So ready to get my motivation back. I went to the doc wednesday.. fully clothed and all my work clothes and boots on I was 152.. so i imagine i am still pretty close to my 146 or 147 that I have been sitting at. But I have a bladder infection and am now on antibiotics but I am in pain :( they did an xray and think I may have a kidney stone. I go in again Monday. I feel like most of the pain is in my kidneys and it does make me wonder a little... is keto messing with my kidneys?! I don't know.

    In the LCD group (our sister or cousin group that covers all kinds of low carb - and it's locked, so you have to request to join, just because of some previous issues), there is a post called Sodium and the Russian Nephrologist - about a member's experience with a kidney stone and such...

    Group Link - if you're not already in that group: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/394-low-carber-daily-forum-the-lcd-group

    Might be worth a read:

    That thread with nephrologist in the title, is ultimately about blood pressure. If I am reading it right there was a possible problem with kidney stones (thus referral to a nephrologist) which turned out - no stones.

    It should also be noted that while the thread first mentions the nephrologist's suggestion to take in 20 grams, yes grams, of sodium it was later confirmed it was 20 grams of salt which is 8 grams of sodium (8000mg. Big difference. It is often important to read a complete thread (then do your own research) before making health decisions.

    @HaideeJo13 hope you get to feeling better.

    Started keto on the 2nd January, down 6.8lbs. Was feeling good and sleeping well until I caught my daughters stinking cold, now I don't feel like eating much at all
