Quick tipp:

I found that really helpful
There Are longer talks of Mel Robbins with the how, why, science behind it. But this is just the short essence of things.

Long version

I did not eat that last square of 90% emergency chocolate in my drawer… (5,4,3,2,1 …go)

Thanks to all the information I read, while those colors are gorgeous… all I see are drugs!

I had AWFUL leg pain the last five nights. I thought at 2:30am hey maybe I should have some Mac & cheese. Maybe some carbs would help. I didn’t. But I wanted to… really no craving… just to get rid of the pain

How are your electrolytes?

Maybe a bath in Epsom salt?

Thank you. I am trying that tonight. I’m on day 5 of this (started 3 weeks ago & have had no issues except this) and not sleeping is killing me softly.

I am taking a mag supplement with mag, calcium D & zinc. My potassium powder arrives today & I am naturally a salt eater but I have been adding more. I tried bone broth for the first time yesterday and last night was one of the worst nights and I went to bed with newly swollen fingers. I’m positive sodium isn’t the issue. How do people normally get magnesium?

How do people normally get magnesium?

A lot of people around here make what we call ketoaide, heres the recipe:

KetoAide homemade

It is very important that you check with your doctor before consuming Lite Salt, as it contains potassium. Do not over consume Lite Salt! I normally only drink two bottles of KetoAide a day and only add 1/4 teaspoon Lite Salt to each bottle. Do not supplement this with additional teaspoons of Lite Salt! That’s too much potassium! Again check with your physician before consuming Lite Salt. [image] [image] 290 mg sodium 350 mg potassium 75 mg magnesium

Some use this:

Amazon.com: Ultima Replenisher Electrolyte Hydration Powder, Lemonade, 90...

Which I’ve tried myself, but I just ordered this to try, because the absorption is supposed to be really good.

Amazon.com: Magnesium Bisglycinate 100% Chelate TRAACS. No-Laxative Effect....

Thank you!

I had some odd pain in a muscle. Salted my burgers with potassium salt last night, and my water today, and it’s gone. Might just be that it got enough rest though.

A few weeks ago I would have gotten all stressed out, then hit the biscuits/ chocolate/ popcorn or even all 3.
Today, I was frustrated, but not stressed, and I did not resort to comfort eating!

This is the best thing about keto. I can get frustrated, angry, a little put off. But stressed, anxious, worrisome? Not a chance. Not enough carbs to fuel negativity for more than a couple minutes.

I bought 20 boxes of Girl Scout cookies from my long-distance grand-daughters. 6 will go to my sister, 2 were given to my daughter, 2 were given to a friend (we did eat 2-3 thin mint cookies over 2 days), and the rest will be in the kitchen for other friends and relatives to consume on upcoming vacations. Sadly, the gluten-free toffee cookies have the most carbs!

I have the orange flavor Ultima @dlc96_darren
I got the 30 serving at a local wellness center
I really like it!!
as a change of pace or something different

For example, I just NOW mixed in a half serving in to my ACV evening concoction
I find a full scoop just too sweet lol
So, I can extend the container longer. A cost savings🙂

Yes. I will try another flavor next
Gonna even go for the 90 serving container like you bought

Has anyone tried oomi protein noodles? Made with fish proten.

[HelenM]

Not yet, but I’ve just had a Tesco delivery with some in it.
I’ll let you know how it goes!

[SecondBreakfast]

YAY!!! Stress-eating is such a HUGE hurdle to clear, and definitely one of the most difficult things to deal with!

I am so happy for you, and encouraged!!!

[SecondBreakfast]

I had to work really late last night, so hubby had to handle dinner. That usually equates to pizza. And, last night was no different. I got home at 10:15, and there it was: pizza. I was hungry, and wanted to eat…but decided it would be best to stick to my 16:8or 18:6 IF, and just hide in my bedroom, until the pizza disappeared.
So glad I did!.. Another small victory!

[DiMo]

Another small victory!

You had a long day, got home hungry, and still avoided the pizza temptation. This is a BIG victory!

This is what I didn’t eat today! Visited a friend and these were out. Didn’t even have 1!

[Hardrock_keto_chick]

A work buddy has is last one and is giving a little farewell toast.
I am fasting and going to work out after.

I won’t eat anything. Just make myself a nice tea and toast with that. I don’t care if people look at me funny…

The irony… they just made popcorn… I will follow my own advice… it’s a flower!

[SecondBreakfast]

Blueberry PIe. I was cleaning out the upstairs freezer, and found a bag of them from last summer. I knew I’d have 4 kids and hubby here for dinner, so I decided—it would be fine and they’d eat it all. I was close to correct. There is 1 large piece left, and I’m not touching it!!! Not even a taste.

Instead, I am making my Keto meatloaf, which should be ready inside 30mins. Its too late to eat it, if I stick to my IF schedule…but it will be there tomorrow, and for days after!

That’s what I do, I make 5-6 days worth of chili. Freeze it and defrost each day. One big bowl is enough for a day for me. Also makes it very budget friendly having a big batch of premade food and makes it easy when your lazy!

Taken out for a late lunch/ early dinner for mothers day.
I didn’t eat this

Or this

Or any other pudding on the menu.
I did have a look but all high sugar and it’s just not worth rocking the boat. I just doing so well.
I didn’t even have a spoonful of the icecream S left.
Not bad for a self confessed carb-aholic
