Traveling today for the first time in a long time. I love the freedom of not “needing” to eat before a flight. I’ve fasted thru 3 times zones this morning. I’m grabbing an iced coffee (heavy cream, no sweetener) btween flights on my connection.Won’t eat until dinner… as planned.

Best news of my whole trip… they have a Starbucks in the hotel! Yes! #icedcoffee #nosweetner #splashofheavycream #fuelfortheday

Ah…. Breakfast. And probably lunch. Maybe dinner?

Starting the week off right…. In the mountains of North Carolina, with my pup and and my iced coffee and a whole lot of quiet.

The more things change… Pre-dawn flight✅ Starbucks✅ Great Things Ahead✅

I’m about four month into being back eating ketogenically. I’m down about 40 pounds. However, I barely go on the scale anymore. I just feel better is so many ways that the weigh loss isn’t as important to me. Keto - come for the weight loss; stay for the health benefits.

Hi Kids... It’s been a minute! Still Keto...and still kicking. Since I was last here, I’ve lost… and gained… and lost… and gained. The rollercoaster? Metabolic adaptation..... Now I’m journaling my fight back to health. Ugh! Join me on the ride: 👉 losingitslowly.substack.com/p/so-how-did-i…

This just in: Metabolic Adaption SUCKS! Dropped 60 lbs (Granted… I did not take the healthiest path… got down to <600/day for months). Moved to 1600 cal/day (still keto!) and started adding weight. All of it came back. Starting again… being healthier this time.

Last time: Ate very few calories (<600/Day)... All Keto approved. Lost 60 lbs in 3.5. months. Then: Metabolic Adaption! BOOM Moved to 1600 cal/day. Still significantly under my daily energy expenditure. Gained back EVERY SINGLE POUND. Learned my lesson. Time to lose again.

Another change for this round: weigh resistance training. And, side note, I’m sore.

I lost 60 pounds fast. Not in the most healthy way. Then I gained it all back—while still eating in a deficit. Metabolic adaptation is real. This time, I’ve got a smarter plan. Read “The Plan: The Long Game After the Quick Fix” open.substack.com/pub/losingitsl…

Lost 60 lbs. Said, “I’ll just eat a little more.” Metabolism said, “I’m out.” Gained it all back. Still burning calories like a sloth in a coma. 👉 losingitslowly.substack.com

I'm reading "Why We Sleep" by Matthew Walker PhD... I had no idea that my 2 cold brews in the early AM could be affecting my sleep at night. I thought for sure the caffeine would run it's course by 9PM. Nope! So, now I'm reducing (maybe eliminating?) my caffeine intake in the AM.

I'm reading "Why We Sleep" (Matthew Walker)... I've known about sleep hygiene and the importance of sleep for good health... but, holy cow... I'm definitely making changes to get better quality and more sleep!

The hardest part of sharing this post? The truth. I’ve spent a lifetime being judged for my weight—rarely helped, often hurt. But I’m done hiding.I’m sharing the real numbers and the real story. Read it here: losingitslowly.substack.com/p/the-numbers #weightloss #metabolichealth #truthfuljourney

Just dropped a post with my actual weight and health stats. So if you’ve ever thought, “At least I’m not that guy,” …you might owe me a thank-you. 😅 Come for the numbers, stay for the awkward vulnerability: losingitslowly.substack.com/p/the-numbers #weightloss #honestAF
