So… I have been doing Keto Since Jan 2018… lost a stubborn 15 lbs… only 3 lbs from my goal…
I am not sure what happened!.?.
I will blame it on change of weather fall is approaching, for me that used to mean bulky sweaters, coats, ways to hide that extra stomach rolll :slightly_smiling_face::upside_down_face: holiday baking was my fix… I also blame it on the grocery stores.the minute you walk in … pies, cookies, fudge… ughhhh
something clicked in my head after eating just a few pumpkin mellow creams… my granddaughter of course decided to share… I thought what’s a few carbs!, Not… it’s been a hard week had 2 good days the rest has been whatever sweet thing I see, I buy and eat… addiction plain and simple… of course I celebrated a birthday this week so a few pieces of cake loaded with frosting …made me almost sick…
up 4 lbs…,
Getting back on the wagon tomorrow… feeling horrible… headache allergies back, body aches…not worth it…
Thanks for allowing me to share… love my keto group…
Wish me welll​:slightly_smiling_face::upside_down_face:

Tomorrow is a new day! You can do this! I always find my cheat days make me feel bad enough they are few and far between anymore. Try not to be so hard on yourself😉

It’s all a learning experience. :slight_smile:

But who needs to learn more about pain and weight gain eh.

I hear ya on the addiction.

Good for you deciding to get back on the wagon! Good choice. (We know what the alternative is.)

Ah the joy of bad consequences for bad decisions. Well now we know how it feels. (I had some non keto frozen custard yesterday and my joints are hurting.)
Today let’s just not do that again and keto on.

So today is day3 of my water coffee fast… lost 3 lbs of water weight… what has really surprised me ? I have been testing my keto blood levels… today day 3. 0.3 I really expected to be higher…
I had a bad two weeks… thought my body would get into keto levels easily … no not how this works,…
