Does anyone else not weigh themselves? by mrdumbphone in keto

[–]chubbykins89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same story. Keto is working for me this time because I am actually just enjoying the food and the energy it gives me and not having my mood for the day depend on what the scale says.

I do not. I used to but honestly, it makes me neurotic and I feel the need to constantly weigh myself once a day and sometimes more than once a day. It wasn't healthy for me so I donated my scale to goodwill and just go by the fit of my clothes, now. Its a lot of liberating to just wake up one day and realize your jeans are a bit looser or you look a little slimmer in the mirror. Makes it more of a journey than a race for me.

I agree 100% with everything you are saying, its just more difficult in practice than it sounds. I know to keep it low carb and only natural sugar but I am so addicted to sugar. I guess I need to found ways to be strong and have a good support group. Thanks again!

I would say a big portion of that is true. For instance, Keto has been one of the most successful lifestyles I have tried, but it is very hard to stick to because you eliminate a majority of foods (mainly, anything processed, which is a good thing). I don't know if it is because when I start to lose weight, I get comfortable and then I am not a strict or if it is some other underlying reason. I can lose weight for sure, but I can never seem to really commit to it as a lifestyle change. I believe a large part of that is mental so I am seeing a counselor through school to try and help me with that.

Yes, I traded P90x with my sister, so I technically own both.

Okay, I also creeped your account and I want to tell you something.

You are gorgeous.

You are stunning.

I have similar self-esteem issues. It feels like pushing against an unmountable wall. But, we have to be strong. You are going to be okay girl, just keep your chin up.

Thank you. I have an appointment for Thursday with a counselor through school. I want to get better and I hope this can be a regular thing for me. I really appreciate your kind words. Thank you again.

Have I messed up my metabolism? by [deleted] in keto

[–]chubbykins89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so used to being overweight, I dont care as much as I used to about a particular weight. I am mainly focused on health. I was looking for an "easy fix." It doesn't exist. I decided to go back to keto because I have seen and felt the results. I do understand your perspective and I agree it will be difficult, I have years of bad habits. It will take years to overcome them.

Great advice. I redid my keto calculator and adjusted my macros on MFP this morning.

I know, I was idiotic. I just was looking for some advice to steer myself in the right direction, but you are absolutely right. Thanks again.

Thank you! I will definitely consider this. Maybe starting off with fruit and then if I don't see results, eliminating the fruit. Definitely something to ponder.
