Well, this is not where we expected to be in April 2020 nor is it anywhere anyone wanted to be.

I'm still posting the challenge and I hope everyone out there stays safe and well.

I guess weight doesn't exactly matter at this time but staying as healthy as you can does. For many of us Keto helps us feel good and that can't be a disadvantage at the moment.

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

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

We use this thread to encourage each other and to add our weight as well.

APRIL

Sunday 4/4
Sunday 4/11
Sunday 4/18
Sunday 4/25

Friday 4/30 to finish the month

Stay safe everyone <3<3

    I’m all in for April. I’m not fooling around this month. Starting April Fool’s Day, I’m going keto clean for a month. Many of the reasons I used for excuses to deviate from my keto routine are gone due to pandemic restrictions. Most of the obligations that kept me too busy to plan/prep for keto are suspended or canceled. So. No more excuses – Bring it on April!

    Sincere thanks going out to chinatowninchina and everyone out there for keeping up the strength and support. We will get through this. It has not yet begun to improve but it will. Eventually, in time, there will be better days. It is always darkest before the dawn. Stay strong and vigilant.

    I haven't been doing the things I know I need to do in order to be successful at losing weight. I'm so tired of backtracking and really want to restart my keto resolve and see my weight loss stall end. I've lost about 70 lbs so far (over several years), but have been stalled for the last few months. I really appreciate the monthly challenges and the keto spreadsheet. I plan on giving it my all in April and getting out of this rut! :)

    Here is to month 2. I have been struggling with lockdown and being in the house with a bunch of carb eaters. I do consider myself to be sticking to a "healthy" diet. Trying to work on discipline.
