Are you doing KETO? I read the 1st few months are hell; skin blemishes, hair loss, and shark week. It all passes. Your hormones are trying to fix themselves. You'll be ok. :-) 

Ha I first read and was wth is Tom lol 😂 

Yea, I had to google; I didn't know either. I just call it the curse. 

Good morning 😀 feeling a little better about things today. Only went up .4 lbs so I'll take it lol having a nummy breakfast of stir fry veggies, chilie tomatoes & macadamia nuts, in scrambled eggs with butter. Granite City for dinner so scouting out that menu now too. I love it that "everybody" posts their menus nutritional data. @pissingmeoff I know what ketosis is and how it works, but whether I'm doing keto, I don't know. I'm doing Atkins and have been in ketosis 😉 I don't use ketostix, but when my hunger goes away I know I'm there.  

:) I went through menopause 3 years ago so when I experienced a menstrual cycle again I went through some fear and trembling that something was terribly wrong. That same day (thankfully!) I read a clip in a magazine about hormones being reset by higher fat, an article by Dr. Ron Rosedale. So not happy to have started things up that I felt pretty good at being over, but also glad for a better understanding of how our hormones play in our life. Happy New year! :) 

@Becca That's very encouraging, although of course, my hope is that TOM never comes to visit again 😉 lol Happy New Year 🎊
