Happy to be down a little again, but honestly kind of frustrated
Hi Sarag, every now and then I need to do something different to shake up the routine and break the plateau.
Exercise - double my exercise sessions during one week in every month.
Food - have a side of cooked mushrooms with double (heavy) cream & mustard with either lunch or dinner every day for 1 week in every month. A book I read years ago called this the 'magic whoosh. Happens to be my happy food but if your not a fan of mushrooms, try to find something else to cream. 😁

*Goals for this month: The holiday seasons are creeping up on us. My goal is to have a plan! Create and stick to MY Thanksgiving food menu. Also I plan to do back to back 48 hr extended fasts (48 EF, eat OMAD, 48 EF) for the full month. And last but not least, would like to end the month in the 70’s.
Good luck to all with your November goals! Stay strong! We got this!!3 -

I added some SF treats in here and ther and cream in my coffee and my weight loss slowed down. I’m still losing but it’s more like 3 lbs a month. I’m fine with it. Do I wish it was faster, of course but I also know it’s a WOE that I will always do so the wt loss is just a wonderful side effect. Good luck! [/quote
Thank you! I need these reminders. And, you’re absolutely right! This is a lifestyle, not a quick fix. I need to make this a mantra lol. I have been overweight my entire life. I have always been a quick fix, and fad dieter. Of course none of that worked long term. This is the first time in my 42 years that I have gone almost an entire year heading in the right direction, in a healthy way. Slow and steady, and staying the course!!0 -

Gutted gyms have closed here - too dark after work for safe exercising. Have bought a Vegan Keto recipe book - going to try mixing up my food choices as I'm conscious I rely on ham and eggs a lot 🤣. Have a great week peeps.
