Total weight loss: 31 1/2 pounds The day started well when I put on last year’s bathing suit. It used to be tight, but no longer! In fact, it’s a bit loose. I am feeling really good about the keto plan. It’s not quick, but it is the absolute best plan I have been on […]
Today’s weight loss: 1/2 pound Total weight loss: 31 1/2 pounds Not thrilled, but still happy to be maintaining and losing size. I decided to have a cheat meal today and, hopefully, kick the weight loss up a notch. Yesterday was Friday. I had a yogurt for breakfast and almonds for snack. Rick came by […]
Total weight loss: 26.5 pounds. Next weigh-in: Saturday, April 21st I measured myself this morning. I’ve lost 2 inches in the bust and hips, 2 and 1/2 in the waist. I’ll take it! Yesterday morning after weigh-in, I threw on my one size smaller jeans, and we hit the local diner. I ate a cheddar […]
Total weight loss: 27.5 pounds Next weigh-in: Saturday, April 14th Yesterday continued my vacation week. We had more construction work to do, and we decided to try another new restaurant.

Our first shipment of the new engineering textbook we’ve been working on for more than a year was due. As it happens, the shipment didn’t come in on time; however, lunch went on as planned. I ate a […]
Today’s weight loss: 3 pounds Total weight loss in 7 weeks: 17 pounds (woot!) I had been assuming that today’s weigh-in would not go well. Not because I went off, or went over carb count, but because the past few weigh-ins have been so disappointing. I know my clothes are looser, and I have lots […]
Weight loss: 14 pounds Next weigh-in: Saturday, March 3rd Day 50 and I’m still going strong. I’ve had a couple of disappointments on the scale, but the clothes keep getting looser. And–with Rick’s help–this has been fairly easy. The recipes that create mock food items, like spaghetti squash and cauliflower mashed potatoes, make me feel […]
There is nothing I love more than pasta. Fortunately, the keto plan has left me satisfied, and I’ve had few real cravings for breads, pastas, and sweets. However, there are some meals that just NEED pasta to be complete. For Cincinnati chili, I have been using spaghetti squash as a base in place of, well, […]
