Sooooo…I decided to join the #thiveinjuly challenge and make sure I started posting in order to be accountable. After week 1, life happened!!!! My 90 year old mother fell and broke her wrist Tuesday evening. They ended up taking her by ambulance to a trauma center almost 3 hours from our home. I thank God for this community for communicating the importance of being prepared. I packed some electrolytes, nuts and grabbed some almond pound cake I had made, just in case. I decided to fast as long as I could and to be honest it was the best thing I could have done as it kept me from eating junk. We ended up staying there almost all week, but I never faltered. We are now back home and my mom has moved in with me. She’s doing great, btw. NSV- I lost 1/2 an inch off my waist and my clothes are fitting so much better. I also lost 2 pounds, which would never have happened in the past when something so stressful happened. Btw…I listened to @VicBasmadjian on the Fabulously Keto Podcast #148 and it was GREAT! Totally worth the listen.
