I stopped weighing myself (because I didn't want to know  :D) and was shocked at how much I gained.  Almost 30 pounds in 3 years.  I was also really low energy and just blah. 

I don't eat breakfast now.  I just do a version of bulletproof coffee (1 tbsp butter, 1 tbsp coconut oil, a scoop of collagen powder and a bit of whipping cream all blended in my vitamax).  That keeps me full until lunch.

My big thing has been finding recipes that mimic real bread as that is the main thing I find myself missing.  I have been doing cloud bread for burgers which is good and then one of my friends gave me a recipe for a jalapeño cheese biscuit which doesn't even taste keto.

Maybe we should have just called the Our Hoochie Universe???

Really hoping that we can keep this going!

OMG Tamara...one of the colleges that Jacob was accepted to was Fleming! Wouldn't that have been funny??

Crazy to think that our babies are getting ready to graduate from high school!

I did Keto for a bit after Christmas and totally fell off the bandwagon...I need to get back on as I actually enjoyed it.  My only issue is I need to find some  more recipes especially for breakfast...I get super bored of eggs super fast!

Also, I wasn't as strict as I should have been so I didn't lose weight as fast as I was hoping to.

It's amazing once you start getting a bit older (not that any of us are old!) how quickly you can pack the weight on!

I don't want to talk about my keto journey on facebook, so I thought this might be a good place to have a discussion.

Anyone on here doing keto?  My husband and I started strict Keto at the end of March.  We both have been packing on the weight over the past few years and originally we decided to do this to lose weight.

I was skeptical - butter???  cream cheese?   :D , but have really bought in.  Besides the weight loss (15 lbs so far), I just feel so much better. 
 
We are for sure staying on strict keto until the end of June, but then will likely allow for some cheating in order to have a few things we miss (like sushi).

Anyone else on keto?  I'd love to share successes, stalls, recipes...

I am getting closer to my first bird leaving the nest.  Right now I don't know how I feel about it.

Howdy, neighbor! 😁
I’m taking full advantage of Sloane being home for the summer and relegating her to taxi duties if she wants to use my van...the hand me down car she was using finally died. 😂

Annika gets her licence in October.  I will totally take advantage of that!
