Wow! Congrats!

Jimeny cricket I wish we had some reasonable weather for Dec here...it was in the high 70s yesterday and I had the AIR on. Sigh....even in Texas that's ridiculous!!

aww thanks everyone! I'm back now and back on track as of today. I weighed (gained about 5 lbs in Dec) and am logging again too. Started my day - VERY early with BPC and a trip to the airport for Anna. She's visiting family in TN this week. The pups are all doing great - we lost one the day they were born, mamma dog laid…

@05_blondie they are Great Pyrenees. Both dogs are pure but don't have pedigrees. It just kinda worked out that way. They are great ranch dogs - very protective of livestock and kids. And beautiful, sweet dogs.

Thanks @Cadori. I just felt like if I wasn't walking the walk, ya know? But I do miss everyone very much and will not be gone forever - just til I'm done baking :wink:

Consider joining this group. The stickies at the top have lots of help and the members are VERY supportive of your WOE without telling you to do something completely different instead. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/394-low-carber-daily-forum-the-lcd-group

so happy for you!

Every meal....silly Lucifer sits at my feet while I cook and sits in Rowdy's lap while we eat. He'd sit on the plate if we'd let him. He smells the meat and the string cheese a mile away. He LOVES some string cheese...like nothing I've ever seen.

Had to move the ring Rowdy gave me for Christmas last year to my right ring finger from my left ring finger. Last night I was playing with the cat, shaking a toy and nearly shook it off my finger. (I wonder if this leaves my left ring finger open for a diamond? We are Texas common law married - not formally married) ;)

Thanks @KnitOrMiss it's all work related excess use. He's been tossing around 30 ft lengths of I beam, crawling under homes with welding equipment and standing on his feet all day every day for too many years. I do give him curcumin, glucosamine and cinnamon too, which I think also helps.

I love that!

So Happy For You!!

*Happy Dances with @ProCoffeenator* So happy it's Friday! It's been a good personal week but a long work week.

Muffin....aw how cute. Buttercup...aw how sweet. Robert....aw...huh? ;) :)

20 grams of carbs or less a day! Keto all the way!!

December goals:* Hit 200 lbs * Drink more water and less diet soda * Log water and soda * Make an amazing Keto Gingerbread * Don't strangle the cat that is now sleeping under my desk, on my footrest while I work and when I try to use the footrest. (she growls at me and tries to bite my toes. (This may be the hardest to…

Will do @suzqtme!

I have no idea how many carbs you may have consumed; in all honesty I would have logged 8 ounces to be safe and try to keep my carbs at zero the rest of the day. I did something similar with a bourbon chicken - it was filled with sugar. I was told to "walk it off" literally. Go walk those carbs away before they process any…

I give it to Rowdy as he has horrible pain in his knees, hands and elbows. It definitely helps. I took it for a while to see if it helped my bags under my eyes and my chin waddle. I haven't decided if it helps or not. I have no idea which is better - for a while I bought him pills then I bought powder and put it in his…

I agree with @Sunny_Bunny_ I had gastric bypass back in 2003 and lost hair for over a year then it filled back in. Now that my WOE is keto, the same thing is happening. Hair seemed to be falling out in clumps - it's really wasn't, but geez it felt like it. it has slowed and I don't worry I know it will fill back in over…

That's a pretty amazing Nana. Anna is my book worm and has been reading at much higher levels all her life. I didn't even have a chance to buy Dr. Seuss for her and hang it up on all the preteen writers like Judy Blume. She had no interest in that dribble. She was reading Harry Potter and Stephen King before I knew it.…

Yep!!

Didn't know you were from my neck of the woods (kinda). I'm an East Texas gal..."First Monday Trade Days" mean anything to you? ;)

Guh....that means I'm up, I reckon. :s Li_in_ t__ S_e_t L_fe o_ _h_ R_n__

I work from home and I happen to eat Keto as my WOE. But I have a family that doesn't eat that way. Everything I keep for them I keep away from any place in the house I'd go to find food. So cookies, crackers, etc stay in their own place far away from the kitchen. That's my first strategy. I also make sure to keep foods in…

Bring home the bacon.

I love you guys

I lost 8 lbs my first week...and I'd been losing already on CICO alone...it will slow, level and become "normal". Welcome aboard!
