Good News for Me

So a week or two ago I mentioned I was going to try the Keto diet. I had been on a medication that made me gain 25 pounds, and I was having a very hard time getting it off. In addition, I wanted to lose more like 40 pounds instead of just 25. And now I lost 7 pounds! I'm thrilled. I definitely stay full longer, and have a lot more energy. I hope to be at my goal by Christmas, as I want to be realistic. Do you have any updates?

That's great about your success! The last couple of migraine meds I've tried have made me lose weight. At first that was great, but then I realized I didn't want to keep losing. Everything tasted horrible. It's getting better now, so I hope I can stay where I am and not gain any back.

@AmbiePam Yes, the strange thing was that regular food made me almost throw up, but sweets were okay. I wish it had been the other way around!

That is really good. I know Keto is effective but it seemed to make my BP rise so I had to give it up. I was thinking I might do just one day a week...as it might help with that days calories. Doing OK though...Had to roll up the jeans I used to wear last year and they are comfortable now instead of tight around the waist...small win. That is great about your weight loss though.

That is really wonderful, you are on a great start and I am sure that you will reach your goal by Christmas. I am on a weight loss journey, mine is slow and steady and as long as the number on the scale is getting smaller and my clothes getting bigger, I am pleased.
