16: Breakfast was Donut Shop coffee and Nut Pod creamer. Yum! I’m back in the 150’s this morning when I weighed in this morning. It’s amazing how up and down my weight is and I do tend to weigh more frequently than I should. I know. I should put that bitch scale away. Anyone else a chronic weigher? But I’m a numbers nerd. I like my graphs and charts. I like setting goals and making progress toward them. But one thing that my weight loss has almost never been is a straight line down. Even when I found ketosis for the first time and was doing more of a PSMF (that ultimately was too restrictive and didn’t allow for exercise…and I lost muscle) I still went up and down. I have PCOS a “delightful” syndrome of stupidly out of balance hormones and a body that fights with me. But… Consistently over time I can lose weight and ketosis/low carb has been the tool to get me there. What I’m doing now is sustainable. Once I’m at my goal (although I don’t quite have a specific number/weight/measurement…I’ll know when I’m there) I will continue this WOE with a little more wiggle room. What I won’t do is go back to the “Standard American Diet” that got me where I was. And y’all the graph doesn’t show me back in college when I was insulin resistant and up to 225lbs on my little 5’2 frame. I didn’t even get that heavy the day before I delivered my son. It’s tough to make good choices over and over and not see that scale drop every day. Like Pavlov’s dogs stepping on that scale we expect to get rewarded with a lower number especially when we’ve been “really good.” But many times we are let down or disappointed. But don’t give up. Consistency over time. Give your body time. #ketokricky #keto #ketoaf #ketosis #ketofam #ketodiet #ketogenicdiet #ketones #ketolove #diet #ketolifestyle #ketoweightloss #ketoforweightloss #pcos #pcosweightloss #weightloss #weightlossjourney #ificanyoucan #betterthanyesterday #fitness #fitnessmotivation #mildmess #dontgiveup #itfitsinmymacros #iifiym #intermittentfasting #IF #dietmotivation #weightlossmotivation

How Does a Low Carb Diet Affect Cognitive Function? | Ketones are the byproducts of metabolized fatty acids found in many of the foods people eat when on a low carb diet plan, including avocados, almonds, eggs, and fish.  The brain responds to the drop in glucose by running up to 70% on ketone bodies. The brain runs much more efficiently on ketones than on glucose alone.

Lets Have a #realtalk from the eyes of Smam. Just like any other girl it seems Im constantly searching for a way to maintain a healthy weight. I dont say lose weight because that gives the idea I want a diet. Im not looking to go to extremes and restrict myself and live an unhappy life. I -am- looking for a healthy way to live for ME in which I can create my own #balance . So how does one go about this? The fitness and health industry has so many options one Google search can send your head reeling with information and if youre like me then you go eat a snickers and say #fuckit I think the general consensus with most lifestyle choices is that you need a caloric deficit i.e. have your body intake less calories then your body requires to maintain its current weight or lose weight. Whether youre counting macros calories carbs… the result of the way youre eating with any of these is most likely a caloric deficit. The key to any of these is making sure you are able to sustain the way of...

Good thing that a keto diet allows for things like cream cheese and bacon. After a brief hiatus (where did the past week go?) I’ve returned. Last weekend was a long weekend in Canada so I was out of service camping for most of my time off. I was so proud of myself for how in control I was of my snacking… yes there were a few handfuls of chips a graham cracker rice crispy square or two and many beers consumed but I normally would have used camping as an excuse to totally derail myself (especially since I’d been in a bit of a plateau). But instead I planned ahead and brought parsnip chips veggies and dip and avoided carbs for the most part go me huge accomplishment. So naturally once we were home and most of the temptations were gone… I ordered pizza and stuffed my face with McDonald’s and demolished half a Costco sized bag of munchies over the period of two days sigh The important thing is that I’m back. I gained 6 pounds since before camping but I’ve been really good with my eating a...
