Every night I walk the dog . It’s as much for him as it is for me . Just being in the quiet after being with littles all day is much needed! I recently started taking epsom salt baths . I go hiking every two weeks with a friend, sans kids! Mud masks I started pelvic floor Physio therapy a few months ago, it’s a monthly…

Give yourself some grace . We all soothe in different ways. Keep moving forward ❤️ You are strong; you’ve got this

I have the same issue. I eat later, have upped my water throughout the day and I go to bed two hours earlier than I used to . If I really can’t handle it, I will eat a sugar free russel stover pecan treat or a little yogurt.

Thanks for your input everyone . I know I need to find something that works ... currently I feel satiated in keto and the only thing I miss is wine ! Once I achieve the loss I am looking for, I will slowly return to a regular caloric intake and limiting carbs but not as extremely, as I continue to exercise . I definitely…

If I lose inches I will be very happy - definitely more important than the weigh scale, however, seeing the pounds come off, is always really encouraging in the beginning. I did take pictures, and I did measure my waist, which is the most important area where I need to lose it :)

Today I am down .8lb ... I made sure I didnt go over my protein limit. Tomorrow I will begin to use the weigh scale for butter and cocounut oil etc... I had no idea that measuring spoons werent accurate enough.

I do better on something strict as I have yo yoed my entire life. I seem to have control in a strict environment and not much control if I'm just trying to watch my weight. Its not that I think Keto is better than any other diet, I just thought I would try it, given the publicity , (as I gain weight very easily and it…

Thanks Anne ! Very insightful as always 😁 you rock

Thanks for sharing , I will sit tight and see what happens ...

Thanks for the encouragement ! I love hearing success stories 😁

Thankyou for this :)

Thank you for your insight, much appreciated . This is seemingly constricting as a vegetarian .

I am weighing everything - the exception is the avocado- I can start weighing that . I do measure olive oil/ butter using tbsp or tsp

I did just finish ovulating ... won’t be having my period for about 11 days

Yes I am

Silly question ? What do you mean by cycle .

2 Months, 22 days and 12h I have been smoke free! First Social Struggle when I threw a bday party for my friend on saturday. SO many of my friends smoke!! They kept going outside but I just tried to keep busy and focus on the fact that I smelled great! I didnt have to worry about washing my hands and trying to cover up the…

I love the last part of this. Since I quit (1 month, 15 days and 11 hours ago) I have been focusing on self care. I havent put the money in a jar that I would save every week, instead Ive been treating myself. First week My hubby and I got a facial. The second week I went to our local health food store and bought a few…

38 days and counting... I ALWAYS had the sugar cravings before bed and continue to struggle. I'm still eating but cutting back the amount of snacks and trying really hard to make better choices, like apple sauce instead of chips. I allow myself a couple Ferrero rochets or a couple candies because honestly - its the little…

Youve got this girlfriend! First week - miserable, second week- still pissy and craving... third week, SO MUCH EASIER. Today is 1 month and 8 Days since my hubby said he was quitting and I decided to be supportive and quit with him -

You can do it Girlfriend !! Today is Day 23 for me. I still think about smoking off and on throughout the day but I posted gross cigarette pack photos on my bathroom mirror and a pic of a cigarette that lists all that is in it. Its really helped. I cant see whats going on inside so I'm focusing on the outside... watching…

I want to thank everyone for their kind support, tips and tricks and sharing of their stories. It has been helpful and uplifting to know how others have struggled through this journey ! I am proud to share this screen shot from my quit smoking ap. Cheers to living longer healthier lives !!

Thank you Everyone for the Support! Much needed. Today is day 6 without cigarettes ! ... I am having an easy time not smoking in the mornings (surprising!) but after lunch I seem to be very irritable... I'm used to my scheduled smoke breaks so its been trying to break these habits... Someone lent me Allen Carr Easy way to…

Me too... Late Night Snacking on gummies is my issues

Only you know whats right for you ! Perhaps You need to try something you are craving to be reminded of how it could make you feel ... I ate meat most of my life and have been recently eating a plant based diet. I sleep better, and Everything digests properly but that doesnt mean I dont miss cheese. We all have cravings,…

EVERYDAY. My job is so busy and I work directly with patients... I have to remind myself to drink! I started a water challenge with a co worker and we text eachother throughtout the day about how much we have consumed... I have a tough time drinking water ! Herbal Tea helps

what if you have a games day ? Break out the board games, crokinole, cards - whatever you prefer... you could actually prepare various dips that are low cal and dip veggies while you play . Walking or moderate bikes rides are nice as well. Its also fun to go to a place like 'dave and busters' also games but different types
