Keto WritingsYikes y’all, I’ve been struggling with binge eating and it’s hard to admit, but I hope that others can relate to this as well! Emotionally it’s been a combo of burnout/sad/happy/sexually frustrated/numb for the past month. Basically all of August was a whirlwind of emotions and although I’ve been having incredible workouts (which i’ll write […]
For the record, I have a love/hate relationship with emotions, I wish I could turn them off but they are also a part of who I am. Believe it or not I’m learning to love myself and even like myself! what a concept, self love. There is a huge benefit to leaning into my emotions, […]
Well hi! Long story short, the past few weeks have been extremely difficult for me mentally. My mental health is important so here are some things that have helped me recover from a depressive episode or whatever it’s called: I could probably write a bit on the last bullet point, but I feel better when […]
The past 3-4 months have been heavy emotionally at times, I will often wake up sad like that is the expectation. News is heavy, life is heavy, and meanwhile I’m being triggered into emotional trauma and it’s all very heavy. But the past week I’ve reconnected with God and it’s been refreshing. He’s given me […]
So i’m kind of in maintenance mode, I’ve hit my first goal weight, and I feel good. I’m currently under 300 pounds and sitting pretty at around 295ish and I’m enjoying adding some carbs and treats. I’ve been eating too many treats lol, it’s been fun though but my tummy hurts too often to keep […]
Over the past several weeks I’ve noticed more and more people gravitate towards me, at random even! What does it all mean? Especially the last week, I was in line at a gas station when someone started complimenting my tattoos and I look back and he’s got this awesome neck tattoo so we got to […]
The first week of April I picked up my son from school and he was sick, he got over it pretty quickly (thank God). Then I got sick, i’m unsure the source but over the next 10 days I lost my taste, smell, and a little bit of my hearing (this is where it got […]
I stopped taking creatine, my reasoning was that I felt it was hindering my weight loss and the positive effects weren’t enough to outweigh that (yes this is a joke). There are other factors and i’ll definitely use up the powder at some point, it’ll just likely be revisited during a bulk. I use the […]
For my 34th birthday, I flew to New York City just for fun and had an eventful and fun weekend filled with laughter and FOOD. I didn’t eat keto but I had some NY staples: pizza, bagels, street food, etc. So much amazing food and the culture in NYC is just dynamite, always moving. I […]
In regards to diet only, i’ve been eating too many carbs in the name of “self care!” I’ve still been killing it at the fitness planet. I am not concerned however because, well, I’m tired of feeling like shit physically lol. Massive carb intakes make my bones ache! This is a good reminder that waves […]
