If I need to wait for weighing in, can I jump on board for daily posting? My natropath just switched me from AIP to AIP keto so I'm back to counting macros, and I'll be using MFP daily. When I wasn't having to log everything, it was hard to remember to come in here to weigh myself. But I really like the accountability. This is my first time falling out of the challenge since I started so I'm not sure what the rules are.
Let me know
Glad to have you back! If you want to send me your starting weight and current weight I’ll see about getting you added back in. I’d say since you haven’t missed 2 weigh ins yet it should be ok
SW: 105.9
CW: 104.6
Thank you! I'll do Sundays this time to keep it fair.

Daily Post Sunday
Track: Yes
Calories: Under Daily/Over on Dinner and carbs
Exercise: No
Day: I was excited that even with eating out I was able to make good choices to stay under my goal. The plan I set with my Nathropath is 1500 calories, 3 meals a day. No snacks. I do better with larger meals and not snacking. Today was easier with the extra calories.
First day tracking in quite a while now that I'm back on keto. I start the elimination phase of AIP as well tomorrow. I enjoyed some GF bread and a diet coke today as I know neither will fly on AIP keto.
Doing this for health, not weight loss, and so far I'm feeling motivated. Hope it sticks.

Bit of a mixed week. Happy with all my exercise but been having a few too many days when my appetite is just insatiable. Too many treats too. Need to get back into control of that.. it is a slippery slope for me. For example, this weekend I had 4 ice creams. Not even sure how much I really enjoyed them..
Felt good to be back on the sea in the kayak! I had forgotten how much of a workout it is for my arms when it's a little rough!
Onwards for a good week. This week I really need to work on keeping a positive mindset. I don't understand why I am so incredibly self-conscious and negative about my body now I'm losing weight. I don't remember feeling this way 35lbs ago? But I just feel like I haven't changed at all. Even looking at photos, I look worse now than before. I hope when I get closer to my goal things will change!

Onwards for a good week. This week I really need to work on keeping a positive mindset. I don't understand why I am so incredibly self-conscious and negative about my body now I'm losing weight. I don't remember feeling this way 35lbs ago? But I just feel like I haven't changed at all. Even looking at photos, I look worse now than before. I hope when I get closer to my goal things will change!
I went through that too. I started out at 250 pounds and when I got to about 190, I started getting very critical of my body and thought I looked worse. I am at 176 now and close to goal, and it is getting better. Hugs to you!

@ajdvegan Where are you sea kayaking? I'm in Alaska and it's a super popular thing here. I don't live close enough to the sea but I love kayaking in general. The river can be a wonderful work out as well.1

Ugh feeling bloated and tired of the constantly fluctuating scale....this is the rut i fell in back in February when I decided to take a break. The 160s are just constant up and downs in my experience and I haven't found a way to break through it. Trying to be more compassionate towards myself but nagging thoughts still creep in. Every time I seem to make significant progress, the scale will jump back up even though I'm following the same plan. Annoyed today.4

Calories: Under Daily/Over on Dinner and carbs (not as mang carbs as yesterday)
Exercise: No (10 hr shift, got >10k steps in though)
Day: the only thing I ate that I shouldnt have was berries. I'm allowed them just not as many as I wanted. But I was craving a sweet tooth. Finally added some coconut butter out of the jar when I ate a berry or two and it was satisfying. My sweet tooth is gone.
I didn't get 3 meals in today so it's not giving me the greenlight to complete my diary but I am happy0 -
