Thanks everyone!! Took a few days to plan. Off today and going to grocery. I think I need to include my son as much has possible to help him make good choices and also so I don't have the junk there as temptation. Starting very simple for weekend. Breakfasts will be keto pancakes (fruit and SF syrup for kiddo) dinners are…

I said i needed accountability so o will probably use this thread for that for a few days to keep it real. Lol

@KnitOrMiss . Thank you for taking the time. There is a lot to digest there. My son is 13 but developmentally much younger. He is at this weird but cool stage where he is testing the waters as a teen one moment and having a toddler like tantrum the next. I know I am not doing a good job explaining but I wouldn't trade a…

Yes @AlexandraCarlyle . That is what I need. There are too ma y people in my life who allow me to make excuses. The everything in moderation folks And it may work for them but clearly not for me. And you are right. Why set my son up for future health problems. (Also researching dietary changes to help his behavior and…

Yup . Got it too. Thought it was my phone.

My step it up challenge is to move at least 30 min a day most days. I work on my feet all day and have been making excuses about exercising. Walking, yoga, strength..... just some form of exercise.

9/1 Me:1 Lns:0 Goodnight everyone

Goal .. 30 min at least 5 days week Sept I. 35 min dog walking. Moderate pace. 1/5

Seafood. Of any kind. Childhood phobia. Actually my mother's childhood phobia that got passed down. Haha

I'm in. LBS is my biggest challenge. I have often doubled my day in 1 hr at night. I need this. 1 small snack allowed after dinner if it remains within my goals for day ( calories and carbs)

I'm in. My first MFP challenge. I have been walking with dog and have a very old treadmill that does not show mileage. My goal is 30 min a day 5 days a week.

Sent a FR!

@Sunny_Bunny_ I have definitely noticed the effects of stress:(. Right now I am adding exercise to the list of things to discuss with new doctor

I also had this experience. The diabetes educator told me not to exercise if BS was too high. I find all of their advice to be very confusing. The nutritionist was anti LCHF. Anyway... Glad to finally have some answers.

Sending FR. I also started last year and was discouraged by diabetes educator and nutritionist. But here I am a year later with even more to lose (70) and out of control T2D. Have an appt with new doc on Sept. 6. We'll see what she says. Looking forward to seeing your posts and success.

That is awesome!!! I feel there is an inner runner in me somewhere. I always look at people running a day say "I want to do that. That looks fun. " Haha Keep it up. You are an inspiration.

Yes. Thank you. She came slinking out of the woods around 3;30 am. No concern for the panic she put me through. Haha. I have been meaning to take the time to separate my food and my son's food in the fridge and cabinet. I think I found my motivation.

Thanks for the responses. I'm not sure what I am aiming for yet. Just really hoping to avoid insulin. I picked 40 as a starting place but I was counting total rather than NET carbs. Will focus on that for a while and see what happens. Any and all advice appreciated. Getting lots of great ideas from reading this board.

Hi. I was veg but have added small amounts of meat to get more protein. Have been confused /concerned about carb counts in beans and vegetarian protein alternatives. Would love to get meal ideas. I am down 35 with 50 to go.

Hi. Everyone. I am excited for this. I am also going to try for early morning before my son wakes up and claims the tv!! My yoga mat is exactly where I left it from the one and only yoga class I went to a month ago. I loved it but child care is an issue. I am 44. Currently down 35 from all time high. 50 to ultimate goal.…

I'll do it with you. I have done it before and got to day 5 or 6 then missed a few days and never started back. I like her videos. No pressure to do a "perfect " pose.
