It’s been just over two weeks since I went on the keto diet and made the necessary lifestyle changes in order to lose weight. The first couple days were hard and all the extra cravings for the crappy food I ate before or hard to bare. But I kept pushing I kept trying and I made it a solid two weeks sticking to the diet and doing good. This weekend I was home and didn’t have quite the control for Less carbs however I still did better than when I is driving over the road and eating fast food twice a day.
When I started my keto Journey on Friday August 14th, I weighed somewhere between 260 and 265. Upon weigh-in this morning, I found those numbers went down. I’m proud to say that I’m down to 251.2 lbs.
I have a lot of work to go to get to my target weight of 175 but I am proud of myself and am committed to the Long Haul. Also in good news, my wife has lost 8 Pounds! Way to go Emily!
This weekend was a very busy weekend with John and his cousins at two separate cow shows where John got his first ribbons. At the same time Emily and I were busy making several health and beauty products for our business which is now licensed and official! We must have made at least a hundred tubes of chapstick, several containers worth of bath salts, new bath bombs, and not to mention all the hours spent building the new website.
On September 1st our business will be officially rebranded with a new website new store new logos and everything. It’s going to be a grand re-opening so if you follow me on Facebook, make sure you also follow Bee Of The Earth (formerly Harmonious Goat) on Facebook as well. On top of all of that stuff, my son started preschool today! It was hard for me to let him go, but he was so excited.
Well I think that’s enough rambling for now. I know this isn’t a formal post with any structure or anything, but just a quick update on my life and how things are going. Thanks for reading my friends I hope you all have a wonderful week and I’ll see you next time.
