I am still kicking it with keto! I haven't fallen off the face of the earth either. Just focusing on my knew lifestyle.
I am not going to lie... there's times when I CRAVE one thing or another, but I haven't CAVED!
I don't miss bread or pizza or fried chicken, BUT I do miss POTATOES! French fries, fried potatoes, bake potatoes, potato salad, mash potatoes.... did I mention I miss POTATOES?
Today, I wanted a tortilla. Everyday I do miss something, but then I forget and that craving thought disappears from my mind.
My knee pain is at a 1... 1 being hardly any pain. I remember at the beginning I was really hurting. Getting up from my seat caused me pain. I would limp from point A to point B. I seemed to only complain about my knee on a daily basis.
I got rid of my favorite pair of jeans. I wanted to cry when I wore them one last time and knew I would no longer be able to wear them, unless I would find myself mooning the world.
My weight loss is has been slow, but it is moving down!!! 19 pounds exactly!!!! I wanted to quit at one point. I got so frustrated with my weight stall. I had to go back and remember my keto basics. My youngest sister has been on keto since February and she is one pound away from losing 50-freaking-pounds!!! I am so proud of her.
Until later....

Happy Mother's Day
Happy Mother's Day!
Being a mother is hard work. No one ever tells you the melt downs that come with being a mom. If you didn't know, they do happen. The advice I can share, is things get worse before they get better, BUT THEY DO GET BETTER!
Everyday can feel like it's dragging balls or time insists to push me over the edge of anxiety, but sometimes like today, I can feel a bit calm and relax.
I didn't lose a pound this week, but that's ok. I won't freak out or give up. (Not in me.)
Here's some positive news... my knee is almost "pain-free"... I kid you not! So close, but still crossing these fingers of mine! I also notice my pants are starting to feel loose around my thighs and bottom. Not that I ever had much of a butt.
Is it too soon that I may feel just a bit more confident? Perhaps... just a smidge at least.
On Thursday, my daughter had a end of year band concert for school. Now let me explain this part about me... for the most part I attend the majority of her performances... big cheerleader for Annaleigh, but when I find out about an event or performance I literally get anxiety, anxious, and I-don't-wannas, until the end. This time I arrived home. I got myself presentable, even a little bit of mascara and lipstick. Dropped her off early and attended her performance without getting any of those moods/emotions. I didn't dread the event. I was able to enjoy the concert.
Today I did have a cheat meal. It was keto until the corn tortillas, 3 to be exact and I was miserable afterwards. Choices have consequences. I should know this by now.
Until later.
