Start of month 3! Overall feeling good but have been slacking with my food diary and as a result I’ve become a bit lax. I need to track more as when I don’t I really struggle with portion control and also mindless eating... standing at the island popping copious amounts of roasted almonds into my mouth!

I've been on a modified Keto (lots of non-starchy vegs and not really counting exact carbs) since January 2017. Since then my weight loss stopped and I even bumped back up 7 lbs or so. Beginning with March 2019 I have started to track macros and calories with MyFitnessPal app. I have been intermittent fasting but I'm contemplating slowly breaking in to 2-3 day fasts since I don't really have health issues and I am not as hungry when I don't eat.

New here - followed Atkins years ago with great success. I have an autoimmune disorder and many foods cause me big problems. The last few years I took the easy route to deal with my food issues and have gained 20 pounds. We eat out a LOT so this is my second challenge. But I have to try something. Hoping this will get me on the right track. Oh, and I have a couple birthday parties in March!

I'm a day early for weigh in, but I won't be anywhere near a scale tomorrow. So I'm doing it now, lol. Gained 2 pounds. I knew I would, I was on vacation last week, though I stayed within the eating plan, I still splurged on a few things. like starbucks coffee/frapps. ate out for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I actually did pretty well. Now I'm just having trouble getting back on track. But I will.
Hope everyone has a great day!!2 -

HELLOOOOO!!!
I'm a little late to the challenge but I'm so glad to have found y'all. I had a baby 5 weeks ago, after a tumultuous pregnancy. I had been following keto on & off for years (dr suggestion in 2014) & through the 1st 25 weeks of my pregnancy. Unfortunately, my body went kaput and I developed preeclampsia - and that was that. 
So, now I'm trying to get back on track but the sleep deprivation & breastfeeding are draining me! LOL My goal for this week is to finally brave the cold & go for a walk outside...as well as to find some sort of schedule & motivation.
Happy upcoming week to everyone!

Happy Sunday Everyone! It was a good week! I stayed “mostly Keto” except for a couple of little blips but I’m proud that I am able to pick myself up and keep going! I’m starting to settle in a bit more and get a bit more adventurous with my eating. My strawberry Keto muffins in the oven baking smell divine! 💕 That said I still need to be careful not to awaken the old cravings, especially sugar!

Back from 2 weeks of vacation. I was surrounded by non-keto friends, relatives and events. Although I logged in to MFP everyday of vacation, I didn’t track food or activity. No excuses, I was NOT in ketosis from day one to the end of my vacation. I must say, I don’t believe in cheat days/weeks/periods.
That said, I do believe in consequences. My consequences are: I’ve gained back10.2 pounds that I lost earlier this year. Now I’m back to keto and I expect good consequences in the weeks to come.

So this week I went from a size 18 to a 16 comfortably (actually a bit loose and baggy but I don't anything in a size 14 yet)... but there is no change on the scale this week. My emotions are conflicted

So, yesterday was my 49th birthday. I now officially have one more year until I am 50. I am not quite sure how I feel about this. (not very good at the moment) Most of the time I don't feel 50; yet at other times I feel every second of my age and then some!
I need to set goals and I am big on external motivators. I understand we are supposed to make healthy decisions based on our own well-being, from within, for our health and not for vanity's sake. But, by now I know myself well enough to admit that all of that does not work for me. I need the motivation of an upcoming beach vacation, clothing I want to fit me, and now to look good in general - not look good 'for my age'.
My goal is to be active every single day, stay low carb/moderate fat and to lose 25 lbs. Last year I lost 25+ lbs (on me, that's a lot). Due to a ridiculous 8 months, I have gained back more than half. Since I donated my clothes as I lost weight, I cannot gain back any more or I won't have anything to wear.
I have been touch and go in this group for the past 6 months. I'm hoping to get back on track with my re-set goals.
My current motivators are: vacation on 4/17 (I'd better get busy!); spending the summer at the beach; and next year being in the best shape possible at FIFTY!8
