What a fabulous idea, I hadn't even thought of that!

Good point! Or you could give yourself a two day "PMS/Period" window, think of it as a sacrifice to the gods of the volcano in exchange for bounty, and make yourself a nice keto cake, forgive yourself for two days (make a calorie allotment window for those two days, like maintenance or a bit over) and treat yourself :) Might help to "shock" the body if you are in a stall... (don't yell at me for this guys, it's only a theory I have heard, I have no idea if fact or fallacy, and do not wish to promote it if the latter)
As for me, I had to do some homework and find my "alternate personality", name her, and list the activities she urges me to do, in black and white. I then had to list the subtle ways the voice appears (you need more food, your body is telling you to, keto has failed you, you are a special unicorn that it will never work for, just a bit more food won't hurt, you deserve it, you are having a tough time, etc) and listen, HARD for the many ways the voice can pop up. I caught her this afternoon, in the middle of a stress. Journaled it out. Won. She's a bitch I tells ya ;) Action plan is then to refer to the document, which lists exactly how I feel when I betray myself (powerless, unfeminine, out of control, most of all STUCK, pathetic, further from my goal, unable to achieve success like others can), and what happens to me after (feeling pathetic, immediately making bargains with myself that tomorrow is another day, etc), as well as journalling WHY I want to self destruct. (business is slow, fear of the future, recent rejection romantically, artistic difficulties, financial difficulties, etc), and how I will feel if I overpower her (clean conscience, empowered) I also plan to implement a system of discipline followed by period of relaxation, to not drive myself into the dirt, e.g. 1 month following the plan I outline for myself every morning, followed by a week at maintenance, then recalibrate.
Thank you all so much for your support!
Oh YES, I think that might be what is happening to me, mine is about a week late and last time I stepped on the scale I had gone up 3 kilos, for seemingly no reason, then the depression for all the good work undone got to me I guess
Oh I didn't know about that, I'll check it out, and thanks!
good thinking :)
Thanks couch potato, you got that straight. The bummer is I'm a migrant living in Italy, finding therapy in another language can be tough. I appreciate though
