AUGUST MONTHLY CHALLENGE

August.........really!

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. If you want to post comments etc please use this thread rather than the Spreadsheet.

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

    Here it is August already. This oddly, unique year has been slipping by fast for me. I have to say, I am grateful for this forum. It is one thing that has remained relatively stable in these bizarre times. I can always count on coming here and being inspired, motivated, uplifted by someone’s post. You guys are the best!

    For August, my goal is to do Alternate Day Fasting (ADF) three times per week for the whole month. I did ADF already this week, so I have 4 more weeks here in August to complete this goal. Hope to see you all back here next Sunday with another week of ADF in the bag.

    You are doing so well ChinaTown. I’m with you, let’s put some lbs in the bank for the upcoming holidays. Then try to hold steady through the eating season (Holidays) and start the NewYear off at our best weight ever. Thanks for doing this Monthly Challenge, for years now, as well as being such an inspiration for us all.

    Joining group late. Would still like to follow along. I did keto for a short time a while back and it did indeed make me feel great.

    @colette0917 Great job! I’ve been intermittent fasting since July 11th doing the 16/8, I’m hoping to try the OMAD once a week and look forward to getting into a 72 hr at least once a month. Way to go! That couldn’t be easy? Do you mind if I add you to my friend group? I need an accountability partner!

    @Champion4ever Thanks!! It was surprisingly easier than I thought 😊 Please feel free to add me! I am still learning how to navigate through the community part of MFP as I have only used it to log and track so far. So please bear with me lol
