Spiralling Down but KCKO

I have been working through some hard times of late. Not for me, but hard times for my loved ones and that really hits me hard. There has been injury, death, and behavioral changes in those around me. I am still working towards my goals and staying as positive as possible, but watching others struggle and feeling their pain is almost worse than going through the pain myself.

I'm not losing sight of my goals, but I am definitely been pushing the boundaries of keto. Yesterday, Valentine's day, is no exception. I ate all keto friendly things, but my calories were insane and I know I went over the twenty total limit I usually stick too. It was a great day to celebrate and enjoy my time with my husband, but now after the fun and high of the enjoyment I'm waking up today feeling sad and defeated.

I feel like February is always an emotional rollercoaster for me. Each year no matter the circumstances I go into a deep funk and really have a hard time functioning. I don't know why exactly. I wish I did. Something in my subconscious or maybe just winter and the lack of sun taking its toll. I'm not sure, but I'm determined today to find something positive and good to say to everyone I come in contact with. I'm back on track and trying to get back to myself.

“Proud but never satisfied.” Reaching a goal just means it’s time to set another one. There is nothing wrong with wanting more from yourself

Saw her when I watched Christian Guzman on YouTube. I am not anywhere near fit and have no muscles to show, but as I move in the right direction I am looking forward to toning this time on keto. In the past I mainly just focused on the food and losing, but honestly I think I'll like the results so much more if I work on toning and building what muscle I can.

Been marathoning his videos all day while I have been working in the house. It's been great background and I actually did a workout while I was watching.

No progress is too small!

A pound here and there can make a big difference in the long run, especially on keto. It's amazing how much your body can change and reshape without the scale moving. Sometimes the numbers get me down but then my pants for looser or I see more definition somewhere that wasn't before. It makes me remember that numbers really don't show much or motivate in the long run. I still like to know, but I don't want to focus on it. Non scale victories matter more in the long run.

Configuring MyFitnessPal for Keto Success

MyFitnessPal is a great resource for tracking and monitoring Caloric Intake. This article describes the steps necessary to configure MFP for keto success.

This only works for a desktop version, but still good to have installed.
