    Hello ladies, restarting keto after falling off the wagon (new job, big international moves, and a severe case of sweet tooth and low will). I know it's a bit late for the june challenge but I could really use some motivation from like minded women.

    I've never used the groups in MFP so if there are good keto groups around here please suggest! Also feel free to add me as friends, I could use company when ditching the bread and frying my morning eggs :)

    You are very welcome to join at any point! We've quite a few men in the group as well as women. Just like us, men need help too!! :) Good luck with the move and settling in!

    No scale love this week but, admittedly, I ate a piece of birthday cake with my mama on her birthday and had a couple more drinks than I should have throughout the week. I was going to try 16/8 IF, but I really like to eat breakfast 5:30a and eat with my family 6-7p... Is 12/12 IF a thing? Also going to try to be better about tracking because I'm guessing there are some sneaky carbs since I've been lazy.

    My losses have really slowed this month, and I'm not sure why. I mean, I'm still losing, but not at the rate I should be according to my deficit. I'm not going to get anywhere close to my goal weight for the month and I'm really bummed about it. Oh well.

    June goal is 156 lbs. (definitely aiming for the 150's)

    My second oldest of four sons graduated on the weekend. He is starting Culinary Arts school in August so of course he wanted to celebrate with dinner at Kojan Sushi (his favourite). I made fairly reasonable choices for food but then we capped the day off with bubble Tea..so much sugar :s but totally worth sharing this moment as he moves to the next stage of his journey. Still in the 150's so no complaints here.

    06/02: 162.2 (-2.0 lbs)
    06/09: 160.9 (-1.3 lbs)
    06/16: 159.5 (-1.4 lbs)
    06/23: 158.7 (- 0.8 lbs)

    ALSO! I will be defending my dissertation on July 18!! It's absolutely unreal that after 6 years, this journey is coming to an end. Now I just need one of those pesky job things that everyone talks about ;)

    Good Luck!!

    I'm a wine drinker, although I've slowed down recently. I'm planning a dry June. I'm curious to see what this will do to my weight since I've been stuck at 170 for a month.

    As a winery owner, I find myself in a position to be tasting very often. I've switched to just the dry reds, and only allow myself a small glass when working in the tasting room - once or twice a week. It's very evident that I've "partaken" the previous day when I weigh myself in the morning. The up-weight goes away quickly, but can really undermine my efforts if I over-do it.

    @wannabpiper ahhhhhh that is like working in an sweet shop or in my case somewhere with unwrapped cashew nuts everywhere. I know what you mean about alcohol though, I rarely drink but and it's a big but/butt I do when we are out for a meal or we have friends round or like this coming weekend when it's my husband's birthday and we have a big family party. I opted to cook rather than go out so I know what's in the food, (or will do once I've thought about what to cook!) Unfortunately someone will say have a glass of fizz and I'll say yes and not just to one! Can't wait for the scales Sunday.............

    Also, I'm sorry, but WTF!! Weighed myself when I got up, after visiting the loo of course. Had a shower and then a coffee and weighed myself again, so either I have water permeable skin or a cup of coffee weighs almost a pound!

    June goal: 149

    Sunday 06/02: 154.2 (-1.7)

    Sunday 06/16: 152.4 (-2.2)

    SOOO close!!! Oh well, I am super happy with this month. I'm getting closer to a healthy weight, so the losses will be getting smaller each week. But, I still lost 5.7 lbs this month and that is great!

    I'm at the lowest weight of my entire adult life; I feel great physically and mentally; I'm getting more exercise more consistently than ever before. Also! My jeans have gone from a tight size 12 to a comfortable size 6 (!!!!!!). I've never been in a 6 before.

    Bring on July! I am going to keep on keepin' on, and see where this next month takes me.

    Good work everyone and good luck in July!

    Been super busy at work, this time of year is very busy for a Theme Park, working 14 hour shifts and it will be that way through August. Then we have a few weeks of slow time before Halloween Horror Nights starts(which is the most busy time of the year). I also went to Seattle/Olympia for vacation so that is also why I didn't weigh in the last couple of weeks. I hope I can get back to steady losing soon. Everyone have a good day!!

    loss: 30.6 lbs

    I started IF this month after watching some Dr. Fung videos on dietdoctor.com. It’s amazing how well this is working for me even though I don’t do it perfectly. I’ll be 61 next month, and it hardly seems possible that the pounds come off at this rate...and without suffering! Bless you all for sharing your experiences and encouragement. 🤗

    While I did see other things than the scale move I am getting other comments where the loss is noticiable. New goals for July on the other board!
