A week Off

 This week has been interesting, to say the least. I'm in "That time of the month" so all i want to do eat chocolate, which this days i can do if I make it myself  to keep it keto and Gluten Free . Also i did some solo parenting for about 5 days, OMG, my heart goes out to single moms how do they do it , i cant even imagine , well i kind of do , my husband had to travel for a family emergency and i stayed home with our 3 year old son , lets just say all i did for 5 days was baby seat, to be honest i also realize I'm the disciplinarian in my household he does everything i say as soon as i say it and its totally different when daddy is home. In other news my weight stayed the same this week 185 , is totally normal because of the week. Next week i want to try something different , i will write it down to make myself accountable , i will do the 5:2 only will have carbs on the 500 calories days and zero carbs the rest of the week and give myself a day off (still keto ) will report back to give my thoughts on how i feel . see you next week .

keto while life gets crazy

This is my week 2 of starting "my own version of keto "it has been good i started doing something more similar as the 5:2 diet , to be honest i hate to count calories or macros , but sometimes it has to be done in order to reach a particular goal , the  way it works 2 times a week i only eat 500 calories i try to eat this calories in one sitting that way im fasting the rest of the day , the 1st week i did this i felt like because i was eating so little for 2 days  I felt like I could eat everything in sight the other days  (keto food of course ) but this next week has been pretty good I don't feel deprive and i still eat a high fat low carb diet .
It has been a particularly hard week because we had an emergency in the family and sometimes when things get hard or life through you a curb ball is so easy to eat for comfort , or at least that's what i used to do , that's why keto has been so life changing for me , food is fuel and i feel so empowered, it dosen't matter what its happening around me i can't let myself down, my goals have become a priority to me and this is my lifestyle now im not in a "diet" anymore this is the way i eat , i don't eat grains not because i cant , but because they cause my skin to flair up , and makes my stomach hurt , i don't eat sugar not because i cant , but because i don't need it, it  has no nutritional value , and because i love my body and i don't want to hurt it , isn't that what love is ? and yes life can be unsuspected but why take it out in our bodies by eating bad food .

Who I’m I

My name is Jenny I wanted to star this blog the way everyone else does , I have always struggled with my weigh , have always been overweight and i have a problem with food Ect. ...., but instead i tell you I’m a stay at home mom that needs a hobby and since i have so much going thru my head this days, I want to talk about it , and soon i will be moving to another state,  which means I’ll have no one to talk to about my excitement about keto as a lifestyle and what it has done for me .
I have been on every diet there is , as many,  or being honest probably all of you have done as well , and nothing works , is the reality that we all have we try and it doesn’t work , we stop eating fat, we star counting calories , we drink soup for a week and we always loose some weight at the beginning but then, it all comes back and it brings an extra 10-20 pounds just to annoy us . But about 5-6 months ago i discover keto i absolutely though it was crazy 80% of fat a day  ? Who is going to believe this ? Actually i did . I started and have not stopped since for the 1st time in my life i can say i have change my eating habits , i have learned to listen to my body , to know when I’m hungry vs when I’m thirsty i actually crave veggies as crazy as it sounds , i have follow some of the keto rules and have made some of my own . I’m by no means an expert and I’m going thru the process still i have lost 32 pounds and still want to loose some more , this is the reason I’m writing this blog just to make myself accountable for what i still want to accomplish ,and why not maybe help others in the process . I hope this is the beginning of a fun journey.
