I'm still plugging along the Keto path. I think. I can't say that I am really losing all that much, but it seems more downward than upwards and that's a positive thing because I was only upwards. I've still avoided bread, popcorn, potatoes, pasta and the like. I did mess up a little bit on a recent trip my husband and I took where I had some corn tortilla chips with salsa. That was a bit of guilt, but I don't think it hurt too much and overall I have been very much vigilant about my food choices. Probably my biggest failing has been nuts and cheese. Nuts in particular. Also beef jerky. But, I allow it anyway and figure it's just the choice I make that is somewhat better than the heavy carb things I was eating before. I started around 193 in March, and here at the end of April I am around 180. I'd still like to be comfortably into the 170's before my 18 month doctor appointment on May 29th. I still think it's doable. I wish it was more than doable and I could lose another 10 pounds by then, but realistically I don't think that's going to happen.
My son and his family have moved in with us temporarily and this is only the 3rd or 4th day they have been here, but I do find that I am not as apt to snack in the evening because they are here. I have been eating my dinner as planned and then not going back to rummage around the fridge or pantry. Since that is my danger time, it's got to be a positive thing. I guess time will tell if that continues or not. But for now, I think its good.
