Plantar faciitis, calf tightness, and keto.
A few weeks ago, I spent the day outside wearing my boots, due to nails, staples, and other such dangerous roofing materials in the yard. The next day, I had a flare of plantar faciitis in my left foot and it's not gone away yet. I've tried everything I know, short of buying new tennis shoes (can't afford to right now),…

NSVs
Ok, so since this challenge group is scale based, let's work on listing NSVs (non-scale victories) throughout the challenge. Sometimes it's hard to see other changes, especially when our scales are not cooperating. I didn't workout or get in my 9000 daily steps yesterday. And it pissed me off. Before, I honestly wouldn't…

We're gonna do @crepes_ idea this week. Let's work on some positivity. At the end of each day, (or at least a few days this week) write down 15 things you are proud of yourself for, or things you did right, etc. If you struggle with 15 things a day, how about coming up with 15 things for the entire week? Happy Memorial Day…

Week 1 Optional Challenge
I'd like to stick with the theme of "15" and create weekly optional challenges. I will obviously need help with the creativity of these challenges, lol! So, post up your ideas and we'll kick it off with 15 minutes of exercise 3 days a week. Some of you surely do this and more, but I know I need the motivation to MOVE! This…

Introductions and Whatnot
Title says it all! I'm Michelle, I'm 33 and I live in GA. I began this weight-loss journey at 218 pounds two years ago. I am now down *almost* 40 pounds at 178ish. I still have 40 to go before I re-evaluate my goals. Tell us about yourself!

Week 1 Weigh-ins (for those who wish) 5/19-5/25
I know a lot of us don't like to put our weight out there, but for me, I'm all about accountability. For anyone else who wishes, just post either your last weigh-in, or weigh today and post that, either or. I weighed in yesterday so I'm going with that ;) Week 1: 180 pounds.

Bruising?
Anyone bruise easier since being in ketosis? I'm fairly certain it's not an iron deficiency, so not sure if I'm just clumsier or if I'm lacking something else that is causing the bruising. I have about 5 new-ish bruises on my thighs and two on my calves. Seems like every time I just bump my body against something, I get a…

Seborrheic Dermatitis
Anyone else dealing with this? Every winter mine flares up--the itching, scaling--all over my face and head. What do you do to treat yours? I'm just about willing to try anything at this point. The ketoconazole cream my doctor gave me doesn't do anything but make it worse.

What's your favorite fair/festival food?
It doesn't matter if it's healthy or not--I'm just curious what everyone's favorites are. Mine is grilled corn on the cob :)
