Good Morning my fellow FS'ers
I have been quite MIA over the past couple of months, I still very much have the desire to get into a healthier and lighter state of living, however, it has been really tough with being a stay home mom of 4 while in graduate school with only 6 months remaining. I am trying to maintain a low carb, moderate protein, high-fat eating plan, yet most times throwing together dinner at the last minute has somewhat derailed me. In the last 2 weeks, I have gotten out my slow-cooker and put together a few tasty meals that cook while I am tending to school and assisting my kids with their various needs.
The last ten days have been brutal the air quality has been very unhealthy to hazardous and just being inside my own home I've had breathing issues. Nothing compared to those who have lost everything both in the north and the south of California but it has derailed my exercise quite a bit. Also, with Halloween, the kids have a bag of candy a piece and we have a bowl left of what I bought for trick or treaters and you guessed it my little hands have been overindulging!
So, I am re-committing to get back on my LCHF nutrition plan by throwing out the extra candy, drank a bullet-proof coffee this morning and going to look for an LCHF meal to cook for dinner for myself. This Keto type eating is so tough there is so much conflicting information out there, however, I have located a couple of books with some fairly simple recipes so I am jumping back in with both feet.
I just want to stay fairly stabilized through the holiday season (Thanksgiving, Christmas & New Years) so that I am not feeling total destruction. I do not believe in perfection just the striving towards consistency. I hope all of you have a happy, and safe holiday season with lots of love and laughter throughout!
One really BIG positive through all this struggling is that I have maintained my weight loss up to this point and for that, I am really grateful.
Peace to all,
Lisa

So I have been experimenting with my eating journey, I went completely off LCHF eating plan over the holiday weekend except for Monday I was back on. First, off the bloated, gassy feeling, I have when I eat carbs and especially carbs that are sweet ugh... Feels like you are hung over! So I am excited that this plan works so well for me I do NOT follow a strict ketogenic plan I follow what works for me usually after all week being strict I let up a little on the weekends and then last meal Sunday night is right back on low carbs. I feel so much better and alert and want to go work out as opposed to not. What I have come to understand is that I accept that while living and enjoying life it has and will continue to take time to remove the weight that I had accumulated over 14 years. Once I accepted that fact the rest has been more of a learning to be more compassionate towards myself and positive self-talk.
This is an awesome website and I truly appreciate all of you who share your journey whether once a day, a week or a month it counts because you never know who may be needing your specific story to help propel them forward or be kinder to themselves. Wishing everyone a fabulous day!

I am down 3 lbs in two weeks with a few hiccups along the way and of course loads of stress with being in a masters program and running a household with 2 teen and 2 tweens! Lol But I cherish every moment because in the blink of an eye they are no longer asking to be tucked in or for a bedtime story so I will take every interruption and just make sure that I get in a 30-minute brisk walk once a day! I love my life and can't imagine it any other way, I follow my eating plan and exercise in conjunction with my busy school and home life this way when I'm in maintenance mode in the near future if I miss a workout here or there I know I will be okay because I am not overdoing exercise or eating now. The weight loss is definitely slower than when I started out but I am okay with that - that is real life in all its chaoticness. I hope everyone is having a fabulous Friday and has a wonderful weekend planned!! See what I did there fabulous Friday, wonderful weekend.. Anyway, talk to you all soon!

Hello All my FS Cohorts
Well I have been on vacation the last 15 days and was not able to eat too well on the road in a hotel room but I did my best and I went through the Savage race I signed up for and that was a humbling experience. I am looking forward to normalcy and eating the way I want and preparing my foods my way. This upcoming two weeks is going to show a big drop in numbers. Hope all have been doing good on their journey.

Good Morning Everyone!!
Going to be another brutally hot day in Sunny California! So I am still trying to figure out this whole Low carb/Mediterranean eating plan. I do not really have cravings for candy, cake, and to my surprise, I have lost the craving for salty crunchy!! (chips) YAY!!
My progress is slower than what I have experienced through friends being on Keto of some type but... I have lost a ton of inches and gone down in clothes size! I am getting a bit discouraged but not because I'm hungry or feel deprived in any way just really due to impatience really. I love eating high but healthy fatty stuff! I do miss fruit however and I am tweaking some things in my eating plan to incorporate some treats with fruit.
My biggest struggle to be honest is coming up with meals to eat for dinner! I was terrified to eat boiled eggs for the first week or so because my father passed due to heart disease in his early 60's and I do not want to push that envelope, I have young tween and newly teen children that I need to be here for.
With all the conflicting information out there it is hard to know what to follow and what not to - I personally LOVE bulletproof coffee! then I go workout and then come back and have egg salad for breakfast scooped up on some chicharrones. I do not want to eat meat at every meal but if I do I usually have chicken or tuna, sometimes beef or pork, currently I seen this guy online who offered a free series on Ketosis eating and I am taking that and hope it works.
If any of you out there have or currently are eating low carb, high fat and know of resources I can utilize to plan meals I would greatly appreciate that!
Hope everyone has a great day
