Wow, the summer is flying by. I hope everyone is keeping cool, a lot of heat waves going on this year.

I'm grateful I have stuck to my WOE for the last two years. I started LCHF/Keto at the end of July 2016 and it is the best thing I could have done for myself. No more yoyoing for me. I stay within 3 lbs. of my goal weight all the time now, often drift down lower, but come back up to the within 3 lbs. even when I really go overboard. So it is all good for me.

    tsazani, I do add in some fasting days, fasting is what got the stubborn last 20-15 lbs. to go away. Maintenance is a challenge, but it is worth it and it helps that I do not feel starving all the time, ever. My exercise is more for just fitness, not weight control.

    Thanks, Kathy. Felt good to be able to post a before and after.
