I went off my bacon challenge last night. After a long day at work could not come home and settle for bacon… I ended having a burger with cheese some pecans dipped in butter… a few pecans , nice handful :upside_down_face:. But so yummy !! Did not weigh in, feel like I carrying around extra water weight…
Not giving up !!
Hope you bacon challengers are continuing…
On keto I have sure learned how I used food to regulate my mood…
Bad day= food
Tired= food
Not feeling well = food
Mostly carb filled however I have learned to not reach for chips, cakes and candy to help my mood… all positive… :slightly_smiling_face::upside_down_face:
Any suggestions how to get the last 4 lbs off…

Fasting?
Have you tried any EF’s?


(Barbara) #205

What are EF’s


(LeeAnn Brooks) #206

Extended fasts. Anything over 24 hours would be an EF.
IF is Intermittent fasting, so say eating to a 16:8 schedule with 16 hours of fast per day and only eating in an 8 hour window.

Ok , extended fasting … yes I have lasted 48 hrs really hard for me…


(Ashley) #208

Day 2 1lb down, we will see how the next few days go.


(Ashley) #209

Day 3, down 2lbs! 210 wooo!


(Ashley) #210

Down to 208 but was there yesterday, suprised I had no fluctuation of weight. Oh well 8lbs from onderland!

Fricken awesome !! Way to go …
I am back on it … deep frying my bacon for a difference… I think my Diet Coke May be my problem… I read it can cause a stall … need to let it go !!

I had to let go any type of pop (soda). Found out today my auto immune disease is triggered by higher amounts of caffeine. I can have a cup of coffee but that’s it for me.


(Barbara) #213

Wow … I can’t imagine one cup of coffee…:yum:. I use coffee as a pick up now I can’t have Diet Coke …

Stopped coffee yesterday. The Eades say it is stored in your liver as fat.


(Ashley) #215

I only have coffee a few times a week! Sometimes just need something.


(Empress of the Unexpected) #216

Years ago, I was having five cups a day. Somehow, it just stopped tasting great. So, before I quit was only having a half a cup a day. Maybe cause I’m using Folger’s. I used to love grinding my own Trader Joe’s beans!

What are you drinking?. Water, tea? Most additives to water have unsweetened sugars in them.


(LeeAnn Brooks) #218

Do you mean artificial sweetners?
