Still chugging & chipping away….

I am not the type to give up but I can honestly say something has been going on with my motivation and incapacity to keto this past January.

I want to but really blame it on Christmas as I really didn’t go off plan too much during December although I also struggled then too., but I

Maybe I have been getting Keto lazy…

What I really mean by that is that I now know how to hop in & out of keto fairly quickly and seem to have allowed myself a cheat a week as a reward, but fact is…Im not a puppy, I’m only cheating my health.

I have paid for that too of course. My weight had staggered up 5lbs down 3lbs up 2 down 4 all darn month, of course. Despite this I have still lost  a total of 8lbs, adding that to my teenie tiny weight loss in December totaling 11lbs in two months. Sad and not too  .

But I can do better!

Tragic would be gaining in my books…which again is a likely a flaw in my thinking!

This month I vowed to stay Keto …to myself I take this oath!!

and then last night an evil teenager left a bag of chocolate covered almonds on the table .

Sometimes I cant even stop myself, especially when dealing with chocolate..my weakness!

I quickly pooped a small handful of those delicious mounds of happiness into my watering mouth stopping at 4 ( and only because they were my sons or his girlfriends)..soooo damned good!

I read he back of the bag as I chomped down in pure heavenly bliss. I really couldn’t determine how many carbs were in the 4 I munched on however the bag stated in 23 carbs 1/4c .. unfair and definitely ambiguous.

Still in my heart of hearts, I know I went over those 20 carbs a day I allocated as my limit to stay in keto. Im still okay with that as I see my weight has dipped down at least another 3lbs already this week. I would hate for that to go up again…so hate that..but it is what it is!

So to date Im now down 82 lbs…still pretty frigging awesome for 9 months if LCHF :)..sadly it should be 90…opr more ..but Im pretty happy considering before Keto I could get 10lbs off.

Till next time…wish me courage & sensibility please!!!
