1.4 lb down today. 1 lb per day in the last 6 so very pleased and excited to break 220..soon. After 4 days & change I broke my fast. I have no regrets. Life throws what it throws at us & we adjust as we need to, right? I ran headlong into many unforeseen complications with...well think of Driving Miss Daisy meeting Mommy Dearest which has left my tank of balance, calm & giving pretty empty this week. I also started a journey to look into what constitutes a disability claim..with mixed emotions. I LIKE to work. At the very least part time..but I keep running into the wall of applying for jobs I don't have the experience for or am physically not able to do. Nothing seems to affect my mood negatively more than applying for jobs. Hopeful when I apply...the depression that follows when I feel rejection at not even getting a response. I try to remind myself that its nothing personal..its just the way things are in this electronic submission world these days..but I can't help but relive those feelings of it taking 5 years to get the last job I had. I'm almost 59 and if it were to take another 5 years, god knows where I'll be at physically. Anyhow..one step at a time..and weight loss is a big step for me. And important mentally for me to have this big thing in my destiny that I can take control of in this crazy world!
Back to weight. I just realized I'm exactly 40lb down from April 2nd..exactly 7 weeks from the day I started my fasting & proper eating lifestyle journey. Pretty wild when I think about it.
Lastly..a new recipe I made last night (I try to find a new one at least 3x per week. Unfortunately I'm still finding I have ingredients I have to buy for the cupboard but no regrets as I see it simply giving me more options. So today its keto mongolian beef:

The only modification I made was used Swerve for the sweetener, I didn't have red chili flakes and I added toasted sesame seeds. I'll just eat 2 servings as a meal itself, but you can make the cauliflower "rice" as it talks about if desired. I did sample a little before I froze it & its delicious!!!
