 Goodness! I haven’t posted for two years! Wow! So, what’s my status? When I review my historical posts, it is clear that I have been focussed on dieting instead of the real problem: binge eating. However, over that last two years, I believe I have started focussing on controling the binging–and I think it’s working. …

Sadly, back to keto as of this morning. For a variety of reasons, I just couldn’t hack a diet including carbs. And Voom (?) wanted me to include ‘treats’ in my diet, hah, which is how a 1/2 cup container of Haagan Dazs ice cream turned into five and all five got eaten the first …

Re-examining those macros today raised the possibility of insufficient protein. This is what I’ve been doing: But checking out various calculators made it clear that I’m not getting enough protein.But then I ran into a very interesting site–Kiss My Keto–that tells me I’m not on a plateau just because my weight loss is slowing down. …
