Exactly! I'm thinking of this as a monthly accountability appointment.

I like Halo Top for ice cream... most flavors are 6-8g net carbs per serving. I haven't tried Enlightened yet, but others say it's also good.

Got the scan, and while I couldn't say I loved most of those measurements, I was happy that my body fat % was a few points lower than I was anticipating! I'm hoping to keep up with going to the gym 5x a week minimum, and look forward to seeing where things are on my next scan in one month!

Awesome, thank you for the insight and endorsement! I have a 5pm appointment, but that's when I could fit it in my schedule this time around. I'll keep the eating to a minimum tomorrow, though there is a farewell party at work for a colleague, so I'll likely have a glass of wine several hours prior. And yes, I am really…

If I'm hungry, I eat breakfast. If not, I skip it.

I worked out, had rice with my dinner, and am starting my period, so not surprised by being 160 this morning. My plan for this week is to keep working out and eat well, and stay…

Do what my pups have done... break into the birdseed! Holy crap (seriously... so much crap), it goes straight through, and makes a lot of poop. However, it's fully formed, firm poop (no rocketbutt!). That puts this method* ahead of some of the other ones here! (they are both completely fine... just pooping a LOT more)…

16/8 isn't as hard as it seems, especially once fat adapted. I stop eating between 7-8pm, skip breakfast the following morning, and have lunch circa 11-12 (unless I'm not hungry, then I'll hold off a bit). If I find I'm hungry before my window, I'll first distract myself and see if that helps. If it's real hunger, then I…

I head back tomorrow,…

Put your protein grams higher than fat. You want your body to burn the fat it has, not just what you put in. Protein is goal, fat is to help keep you satiated.

I do a Women's One-a-Day in the morning, and magnesium citrate before bed.

Good luck to you too! My goal for December will be to practice portion control, IF 3-4 times a week when we don't have guests, and work out 2-4 times a week. My parents are coming to town, and we've already selected the restaurants to take them to (Korean, Indian, Afghan, and Caribbean), some of which I can stay on keto,…

Spiced chicken thigh and broccoli & spinach casserole.

I grill up 10-12 spiced chicken thighs at least once a week to keep on hand for snacks/meal additions. So easy to pop one of them in the microwave. I also make a big vegetable casserole so I am sure to get those in. The recipe differs week to week, and you can adapt to suit your tastes, but it usually includes 4lbs frozen…

I hear you, and thankfully there is no uni-boob situation with the single-shouldered dress! The one on the left fits and looks nice, but wasn't really anything special beyond the deeper V neck.

I'm able to wear my old claddagh ring on my right hand again... I bought it in 2006 when I was in Galway, and wore it nonstop for many years. It's just a sterling silver ring that cost 15 euro, but it's from one of the oldest claddagh shops, and the details are hand carved. When I was at my higher weights, it would only…
