Hello again and also welcome to anyone looking at this and wondering if this is for you, just give it a try!

You can post your weight here and also in the Keto Monthly Challenge Spreadsheet which Nikki updates.

Feel very welcome to join, we usually post our weigh Sundays and use the 'Keto Monthly Challenge Spreadsheet' also in 'Announcements' to track weight.

We use this thread to encourage each other and to add our weight as well if we want to and generally chat!

It's fun and it's been working and we've lost a shed load of weight between us. It seems to keep us going and even if we go up occasionally (and who doesn't!) we get back to it and continue the journey.

March

Good luck to everyone, welcome to everyone new and well done the old faithfuls!!

    I decided to restart keto on 2/15. I previously lost 60 pounds on keto but gained some back over the holidays. I am going to work towards a goal of losing 10 lbs in March.

    I copy and paste from my previous weeks post and update. I can’t speak to the spreadsheet as the app was giving me issues so I gave up! 🤔

    Just started Keto early January and after the initial 10lbs have floundered a bit on a plateau, jumped up a few lbs, and hoping to trend back down. The goal is to get back to my healthier weight, have more energy, and feel great about being my best self!

    Hello Keto Kompadres! I am in need of support, tough love, and maybe a little advice. My very sweet spouse booked a couples retreat for our anniversary the weekend of March 22-24. He's asked that I buy some new clothes (most of my wardrobe is business to business casual) What is appropriate resort wear for a 48 yo, curvy, but heavyset woman? We haven't been out like this since before we were married (19 years ago)! Help!!

    I've lost 10 pounds since the beginning of the year, so another 5 before we leave isn't out of the question....

    Hi! I’m new to the group. I had a lot of success with Keto before and started again January 15, 2019. I have health issues I want to get rid of plus a Vacation the first of August. I really like having the challenge for accountability and to meet new friends.

    Still no access to a scale; so here are my numbers for starting the month; more at the end:

    waist: 46.25
    hips: 45.25
    thighs: 28

    looks to be about 0.5" from both waist & hips (probably why my test pants can be snapped without feeling like i am going to break them. not fully wearable yet; but progress is progress).

    Hi Everyone -
    I'm new to this group, and just past the novice stage with keto and IF. I've been LC since about 8/2017 and somewhere after that I became more keto. Sometime in early 2018 (Feb/March) I started dabbling in IF, after I read Jason Fung's Obesity Code and Jimmy Moores, Keto Clarity. I sometimes do OMAD and sometimes follow a 16:8 and sometimes do 24-36 hour fasts. See the problem?! I'm all over the place. I really need to start tracking my carbs again, too. I got off track some over the holidays and got back on track - - but, I don't feel that I'm as consistent as I was. Or rather, I don't have meals and IF plan as automated and planned as I would like. So, I'm going to use this group as my support system to gain consistency and to get grounded again. And, I want to help and support others that are new to the journey.

    SW 2016 - 240lbs
    CW 2/28/19 - 189.8lbs
    GW - 185lbs
    UGW - ?? I really care about my waist size. I understand healthy waist for women is below 30". I'd like to be 29" or so.
    Starting waist 2016 - 43.5"
    CWaist - 38.8" (has been as small as 37.6") seems pretty daunting to get down to 29".

    New to this group. New to using a forum as support.
    Started Keto as part of a program. Now trying to keep the weight loss going independently. I've already seen a slide in my progress. I would like to keep losing (weight not progress).
