I'm in and I'm going to try both. My only issue is gonna be the coconut oil I use for my "bulletproof broth". Other than that I've been pretty much vlc for a few weeks now.

I'm in. Starting whenever. What "stats" are we posting/recording?

AHHH, I tried to join but haven't been accepted yet.

Hello Ladies, Welcome aboard to all of the new ladies, you have found an amazing group of strong beautiful women who will support you and listen to all of your joys, sorrows, gripes, praises, and general BS. Love these ladies!! And I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say I sure miss May. I've been doing pretty good with…

Hello Ladies, So glad to hear that Ms May checked in. Give her my love if you speak again. I sure hope her busy is a great busy. Finishing touches going on in the Grandflower's house. It really looks like they are going to get in before Christmas. I've started gathering little things to really deck it out for them. Little…

Howdy Ladies, Just dropping in to say hello. As usual I read all of the posts but find it really hard to post unless I'm having a better than normal day. I hate to be a debbie downer, if you can't say something nice, and all that jazz..... So, Turkey Day was great with just my Moma, Aunt, & Uncle. Early to bed, early to…

Howdy Everyone!, Just dropping in to say hello and continued well wishes to everyone. I sure hope Ms May is well and just to busy to stop by, I miss her!! Last (half) day of work until Tuesday. I'm taking my Moma to Hurst (Ft Worth) to visit with my Aunt and Uncle for the holiday. I guess I'm feeling my mortality as I look…

Mornin Everyone, Another rainy day here in Austin. At work pretending to give a hoot! :# Soup sounds wonderful. I hear it's gonna be cold by the time we leave work today. Might be something to think about. Have a great day Ladies!

Happy Monday everyone, Thanks so much to you lovely ladies for keeping the thread alive. I read daily but don't check in often, guess I'll have to work on that! WOE going well. I've gone back to drinking way to many diet cokes but other than that I feel I'm doing really well. I find pre-planning saves the day more often…

Hello Ladies, Another Monday.......... Work has not been fun and I fight the urge to call in pretty much every day now. Working really hard on just keeping my head down until the change comes. I can do this!! lol @Karlottap we are wet but fine. I believe most of the flooding is further north this time. A few roads closed…

Hello Dear Ladies, Not much new here. I've jumped back into this WOE and all seems to be going well so far. We are leaving early tomorrow to travel for a family reunion this weekend. While I love most of my family there are always those... well, you ladies know, we all have a few. It's going to be the first large gathering…

Hello Ladies, Hope everyone is well and having a great day. Sure do miss May, reading her daily posts was very uplifting for me. Saying a prayer for her and family. Welcome to all of the new ladies. You have joined a group of strong, sweet, and resourceful women here. They have been a true blessing for me this year. I'm…

Wow, where did everybody go??!

Hello Ladies, Trying to get caught up at work. Seeing all of the mistakes and things I've missed over the past month, UG! I'll get it corrected and caught up soon enough. Work is good for me as it allows me to bury myself in other things for a while. I'm giving myself until Aug 1st to get fully back into this WOE. I've…

Hello Everyone, Thank you all for the words of support, good vibes, and prayers. I truly appreciate them all. I've started seeing a therapist to help me ??! I don't really know what he will help with but it sure can't hurt anything. I haven't stopped to read thru and catch up with everyone but I will soon. I hope everyone…

Hello dear Ladies, Welcome to all of those that have joined this fantastic group. We are supportive, funny, informative, and very glad to have you join us!! I hope those of you in and around the fires are safe. Fires are worse than water in my opinion. Prayers and good thoughts for you all. Congrats on the weight losses…

Hello Ladies, Glad to see we have so many new ladies on board. This is indeed the "best" thread as most everyone here is helpful and so very supportive. Congrats to everyone with losses and even to those of you with no losses but the commitment to carry on until there is one. Ms May, so sorry for your issues with MIL &…

Hello Ladies, Welcome aboard to all the new ladies. You have found the best subgroup there is. These ladies are pretty amazing and I look forward to checking in just to see what everyone is up (or hopefully down) to. Amazing support system and not only with food/weight. Storm Bill didn't drop as much water on us as…

Hello Ladies, Let me do this first so I don't forget! My first name is... Rebecca - - Moma says Rebekkah Ahnne but I quit fighting the spelling long ago I chose my username because... It's my email and I didn't know I was supposed to go incognito! My birthday day and month is... Aug 9 My favourite LCHF meal is... A shrimp…

Wow! I'd love to have nails like that, even without the fantastic art. I wear gloves at work so I gotta keep mine pretty short. Go for the Botox! lol anything that makes you feel better about you that isn't hurting anyone or anything - heck yeah - do it. We women sometimes forget that if we don't take care of ourselves we…

I've emailed my Doc and herbalist about the mixture of Valerian, Syntrinol and, Ashwagandha. I'll let you know what they say. I'm blessed to have a Doc that is willing to work with natural before resorting to chemical/drugs. I'm taking the Ashwagandha and have put the Valerian on my list of things to get but I think I'll…

Hello Everyone! What a busy bunch you have all been. I'm not even going to try to comment on all, just know that I'm glad you are all here and that it seems most everyone is doing really well. I actually missed you ladies! I went on a cruise for a week and came home to a flood. UG! Some pretty bad damage to home and…

Wow, every time I log in and read thru this thread I am newly amazed at the wonderful, supportive, wise, incredibly strong women that have gathered here. I just can't dig all of that BS and pain back up enough to type it all out so I am very proud of those of you that are able to get it all out there and talk about it. It…

Hello Everyone, Lots of new faces I'm trying to catch up! Welcome Susan. I've had a really easy time getting back into LC so far. Going thru that whole breakout thing again but I seemed to have skipped the keto flu this go round (whew!). I'm at 185lbs today but I tend to bounce around 2 or 3 lbs daily so I don't pay a lot…

Contigo has bottles that will handle the heat and not leak. I got mine at Target for about $10. It has a smaller opening on the top to drink out of but it also unscrews at the wider part. I open it up and add my stuff to the wider part then screw it back together and shake!!! Then drink from the smaller opening.

Hello Everyone, Thank all of you for the well wishes and prayers. Believe me they were heard and felt. I feel like I've been given a pass and I fully intend to take advantage of it. So I weighed in this morning at 188 lbs. Not bad considering. But today I start over with this WOE as I was feeling so much better in so many…

ALL GONE!!! CANCER FREE!!! WOOO WHOOOOO!!! Okay, sorry, needed to yell a bit there, and I had to come back and share the GREAT news as so many of you have been so supportive. Just a quick recap to get it out of the way - - I found out a few months ago that I had a patch of skin cancers of different sorts on both my left…

@Twibbly sounds as if you got the Houston speed speaking and the Midland/Odessa drawl. LOL I can just hear you now. I have family all over Texas so I get a regular dose of all of the twang that comes along with that. Ms. May I think a man with a deep voice and an OZ accent are the sexiest thing on earth. It would be great…

Hello Lovely Ladies, So many new personalities since I last visited. I had lots to read when I logged on. I've been a bit out of pocket for a while but things are on the upswing now. Weight? I have no idea. I'll weigh in the morning and take some measurements as I feel like I will be starting over. Diet/WOE? It's been…

Hello Everyone, Looks like we've gotten some new Lady Friends since I last visited. Welcome aboard to all! Yuck with the snakes and the heat and the "big boys" in speedos and the nice ones in big baggies! LOL You ladies always make me smile. I'll be out of pocket for a while. Going Tuesday to have a pound of flesh removed…
