Yeah I am still here....
And I am going well.
Had a good long talk with some friends of mine, both have been doing Lazy Keto for nearly 12 months. One of those friends has lost over 20 kilo's and she has a lot of medical conditions that has hampered her progress.
Anyways after a bit of research and feeling very apprehensive I started this way of eating on the 16th January. So far so good. I thought I would really struggle with the lack of bread...but so far I haven't even craved it.
Saw my Dr and she approves and said it would help me with my diverticulitis. I sure know it has helped me with bloating and a lot of my aches and pains in my legs have gone.
Best of all, I have lost 5 kilo so far. Long may these kilo's keep coming off!!
I really needed help...just before I started this the scales were heading higher and higher, clothes were straining at the seams, I was miserable and hating myself and just couldn't stop the never ending emotional eating.
Time out was much needed. Looking after grandies a couple of nights a week (sometimes 4 nights in a row) does make me a little weary. William is now a real talk a mile a minute 5 year old (he never shuts up!!) and Summer is just starting to get mobile 10 month old.
Every second weekend I have Shawn's girls (15 years and 12 years) to give their foster mother some respite. They get their noses into their phones/tablets so don't get a lot of too much out of them. Have to prise them away from them so get outside and get some fresh air.
I may have to have the little ones a bit more often....depends on Kylee and Garry.
Kylee has kicked Garry out....he is not to return. Once a cheater, always a cheater...but this time Kylee caught him out red handed.
He has the kids 2 night a week on his days off...Kylee will never deny him that, but thankfully she has rid of him once and for all!!
Yay! I am so glad that you have found something that is working for you!!! I have thought about going more that route...bread is my vice (one of them) and I also know bread is my issue sometimes with losing weight...too many carbs and I don’t lose!!!
ReplyDeleteYour grandkids are gorgeous... I can't believe William is 5 already!
ReplyDeleteI came here from Mary Fran's blog. I know a few people following a keto diet, and they are doing very well. I have never seen the Keto It Simple that you shared, so thank you!
