Linda -
I agree with HIM - and I don't think you have anything to worry about. You are recognizing the behaviors and can plan for future situations. Fwiw - sounds like a great get together and you did really well!
Your Faire sounds great too!
Lol - I've been dieting so long / off and on my whole life I've passed most fair foods - except funnel cakes
and I really don't like those...but 2/3 years ago, I tried a deep fried oreo. Insane...
NSV - went to the thrift store - all size 10 slacks for work
& a SIZE
8 pair of jeans! A little snug & some muffin top, but zipped & wearable! Amazing!!!! Also got a couple M blouses - had to put one back b/c of my shoulders - fit through the waist but no give up top.
So, the more I keep looking around, the more I am coming to the realization & I am 95% positive I've knocked myself out of ketosis
*sigh* I am sticking to the lower carb scale of veggies / products for a couple days and power back through the keto-flu (yuk!)
I saw some hard core IP'ers saying that a 4th packet will knock you out of ketosis :??: but extra packets are encouraged if you exercise...?
I am also making peace with this slow down in WL.
Linda - I want to put the scale away so bad, but then I think about the fact that if I hadn't weighed yesterday, today's weight would have disappointed me even more...
That said, still haven't seen "healthy" BMI weight yet (155) - bouncing the same 2 pounds still (156 - 158)
A thought I've had that is giving me a measure of peace & patience with this though is that I've never been below this weight in my adult (18) life...and truthfully, probably since I was 8 / 9 years old...30 years of my life +155.
I am starting to feel like my body is holding onto everything it can for dear life. It doesn't know any better...I am down to a point where I am getting rid of fat / fluff that has been there for 30 YEARS!!!! Of course it isn't just going to go away without a fight.
I also wonder about having gotten so large at such an early age and if my body just thinks 15X is where it's supposed to be...and
if this is the case, what, if anything, can I do to reset this...? I even wonder if issues like this have been looked into...
