I Made My Goal Weight

It took almost 26 months but I met my goal.  So I lost 77 pounds.  I'm going to continue with my Keto diet with some cheating.  I feel calmer on Keto but I am also taking 3 supplements that might be helping too.  They are Magnesium, L-theanine and Ashwagandha.  So I hope this gives you hope!

Congratulations on that huge weight loss. It is inspiring. You know those three supplements are good for mood control, they create more calm in the body and brain. So it is more likely the supplements and not the keto. If you want to know for sure, stop the supplements and just do keto. I find these supplements help my mood, keep me calmer, Taurine, samE (for joint pain), Ashwagandha.

Congrats. Great job! I'm proud of you!

I think the weight loss, diet, and supplements probably all help you feel better. I noticed I feel better when eating healthy especially plant based foods. I don't think I could ever go totally plant based but something like a good smoothie bowl makes a difference to me mentally and

Thanks everyone! I really had to persevere. I remember my brother telling me I looked thinner when I lost my first 5 pounds. His support has gone a long way. During the holidays, I was at my best friend's house and her cat knocked a box of leftover pie off of the counter. I cleaned it up and she said "who is this in my kitchen?" I would have never done that before. She made me feel good saying that. And thanks for all of your support!

    I'm feeling down,, and got alot on my mind right now.  I got grief going on, on top my depression and anxiety and now I got to worry about somewhere to live since I can't afford living here since my mom passed.  So many bad things have happened since my mom passed.  One thing after another it seems.  Yesterday our fence fell from a storm that hit, had to call someone to prop it up.  Thank...
