Happy Tuesday! I'm dragging myself this morning. Thinking I should have let myself sleep a bit longer. My bladder thought I should be up right away and had a really convincing reason. I ran out of my Splenda this morning and am being forced to use my emergency bag is stevia. Still have a had time with the chemical…

Monday is showing its ugly face again!! Seriously I swear it was just Monday the other day! Had a good weekend. I protested being an adult yesterday (for the most part) I did get my laundry done and put away. Besides that I didn't do much more of anything else. It was a Netflix marathon day for me and I loved it! We got a…

Snow, snow and more snow! It's a snowy Saturday!! Not sure how much I'm going to accomplish today. My daughter has a birthday party to attend which will be pretty awesome for her. Swimming and rock climbing! The girl will get her exercise for sure! Unlucky mom has to brace the roads to get her there and find something to…

Is it really? Has it finally arrived?! It's Friday!!! But, it's also still snowing.... not supposed to stop for a few days either! That's okay... it's not too bad. It's the cold that gets me. My trusted unicorn kept me going yesterday I'll have to keep her around for the next few weeks I think! So here's the thing with my…

Happy Thursday! So far? No snow! I'm going to make it to work just fine! Lol. I was all worried about this morning's commute. I had the worst. Day. Ever. Yesterday. Complete with tears of anger! Started off bad, then it was just a spiral *kitten* show after that. Got myself together eventually and held my head up and just…

Monday is back again! Didn't we just have a Monday? Today is going to be a crappy day. Early in at work, then leaving for the dentist appointment that I've been dreading! Going to see if they can fix my broken tooth and suffer through some major anxiety! Starting the day off on the wrong foot too... my phone is…

I always add two pinches of my salt mix to my drinks.... It's an equal mix or salt and nu-salt! No headaches and so muscle cramps!

It's a snowy Sunday!! Making a Keto beef stew for dinner tonight. Going in the crock pot for 8ish and then slow cooking all day... it's going to be delish! Yesterday turned into busy morning followed by laziness!! Another impromptu fast since it was busy... forgot breakfast realized lunch had passed and figured I might as…

You notice that all your clothes are mysteriously collecting grease stains... grrr!

If you were fully in ketosis for a while prior to your cheat your body will have an easier time reverting back to ketosis. The pee strips are really only good for the first run of getting into the swing of things. They measure what is being spilled (unused) by your system. Once you become adapted there should be little to…

It's Thursday!! This week is slowly crawling to its end..... hopefully it gets here soon! I can gauge what kind of day I've had by how my evening plays out. Last night I got home late so I thought I'd get my son to sleep then hunt the kitchen for dinner.... never happened... I was out like a light and didn't wake up till…

Morning everyone!! It's that wonderful day of the week, we climbed the first half and are now standing at the top having a look round before the downhill trip on the other side... So far this week my scale went slowly up and holding strong, today showed a slight downward trend... hopefully it continues downward! Have a…

It's Tuesday!! I was hopeful that my body pushed out of its seemingly "comfort weight" over the weekend I dropped down... and right back up it went with the start of the week!! Ugh! I can see and feel the difference as I know I'm losing fat it's just comical to watch this bouncing ball of up down with the scale! I'm not…

Morning! Never got a chance to post here yesterday, I was busy trying to be lazy!! Didn't work out so well. Had a pretty good day. Last night my worst nightmare came true. I broke a tooth! Ahh!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Happy Wednesday everyone! It's a tad bit warmer today would be perfect Walking weather... just with rain forecast for the entire day :disappointed: So I have one sick kid who's suffering from the worst creeping crud. He's a trooper that's for sure! I'm slowly getting myself motivated for work today. The kids have their…

Thanks guys! I had to leave work early for my son who woke up sick. When I left for work he was running a fever that wouldn't quit even with meds! My boss pulled some strings and got me out by 9 am to go take care of him and get him to the doctors! Being home for this extra day seemed to calm things down here as well. So,…

Good Tuesday Morning! All I can say is brrrrr! It got cold fast! I don't do cold. Nothing I can do about it other than layer, layer, layers! Funny that I still have some clothes that are too big for me since it makes it easier to layer up! I attempted to get my lunch break walk in and quickly said no way. So I'm not sure…

Morning everyone! /motivational rant on Today I'm taking one step at a time. I'm going to do my best to not dwell on my stress. I'm going to keep my head up and not feel sorry for myself or the situation that's hit me like a tsunami. Instead I'm going to embrace it and let myself get mad. I'm going to let my anger fuel my…

From what I understood from the science behind this... when your body is using its own fat stores it will only use so much when it's nearing its limit people tend to experience cold extremities or a temporary slump in energy levels our bodies won't go into panic mode like a carb burner (they experience to joys of the…

YMMV!! Everyone's engine runs slightly different from the other guy! It also runs differently depending on where you are on your journey also as to what your goals are... I'm prediabetic with other health problems (aka my engine runs differently). My last attempt with fasting 18:6 left me with tons of energy however for…
