    September was a good keto month for me. I lost a total of 8.6 pounds this month. However, because of a very undisciplined keto year, I’ve only lost 5.5 pounds for the year. My goal for October is to continue to stay keto strong for a second consecutive month. I love the way I feel on keto. My thoughts are clear, memory is sharp, joints are pain free, winter dry skin is gone, and numerous other non-scale victories (NSVs) keep appearing day by day.

    I can’t figure out why I keep reverting to my old eating habits that make my keto NSVs disappear. Tomorrow will be my 635th day of knowing about and trying to practice keto as a Way Of Existing (WOE). I can’t claim I’ve been living a Keto WOE all those days. I can say when I adhere closer to a Keto WOE, I’m happier, healthier and a better version of myself. I <3 heart keto!

    No goal in mind for September, lets see where Keto and exercise takes me. The needle didn't move in the first week. We'll see if I make progress by the beginning of next week. I did get three workouts in so far this week. Still no change in weight. I increased my number of workouts but I think the real secret is I've got to reduce the calories I take in. Keto's all well and good but not if I'm consuming more calories than I can burn! Well, at least I didn't gain anything. Decided that I'm "eating until I'm full" so instead, I will be doubling my workouts from 3 per week to 6 per week (2 on Saturdays). That will still give me 2 days to rest. C'mon October!!!

    Sept 2019
    HW: 265 lbs
    Restart Keto Weight: 175 lbs
    CW: 153 lbs
    September GW: 148 lbs
    GW: 130 lbs 
    9/1 - 154.60
    9/8 - 152.89
    9/15 - 152.13
    9/22 - 152.73
    9/29 - 152.07

    Progress was sloooooow and I didn't get to where I wanted to be. But! I made some progress. My work schedule has changed drastically (I am a professor and classes have started back up), so squeezing in exercise is more difficult. I may have to get curtains for my office so I can do push ups and abs!
