Hey y'all. I haven't been as active around here because I've been busy. But I've been keeping on keeping on.
Started mid-December. The first 12 came off hard and fast. The next 8 were pretty quick too. The next 6 were slower. My story is not unique. This is how weight loss and the keto journey goes. The last two weeks the scale barely budged and then this morning I had my first "whoosh" since the initial water swoosh - three pounds evaporated seemingly literally over night. That puts me at 26 lbs and halfway to my goal. I'm feeling really, really good. My energy is high, my appetite is low, and I love digging around in my closet for old clothes that are suddenly new again. (Also, having a same sex partner who is thinner than me....I get to dig around in her wardrobe too...her badass red leather motorcycle jacket fits me now...)
I have realized that even if I never lost another lb, I am okay at my weight right now. I feel comfortable in my skin again. I am happy to look in the mirror again, to see pictures of myself. For health reasons, I am going to continue on my course to get the second 26 lbs off, but I won't stress when the scale doesn't budge for weeks. I'll get there when I get there. If I put on my wedding dress in October and I am two lbs lighter than I am now, that's okay.
My story is not special or unique and similar has been posted here many, many times before. Thank you all for letting me share mine too.
R/keto regulars will recognize my pics, as I posted the first two a month or so ago. I've updated with a pic from today. FYI NSFW I'M MOSTLY NEKKID.
That is all. KCKO.
