Great to see you take the plunge @Elf70! You have had a great start! I know how much you love your desserts, so giving those up is true commitment

The really hard part about Vegas (and any travel) for me is the places they sneak in sugars where they don't belong. But, I always just do the best I can with a few little splurges here and there. I think it helps to plan ahead, and you usually plan some of your meals ahead so that should be really helpful.

The one thing I will caution you about the fruit is that it has way more carbs than seems fair. Depending on what it is, it could throw you out of ketosis pretty quickly, and then the hungry horrors will show up. Once those take over, it is really hard to stay on track. But, it is also so damn healthy and good that it might be worth it to you. It's always a dilemma for me.

I bet you are feeling better since starting, too. That was one of the things that made this an easy choice to me. Getting rid of the toxins and inflammation makes a world of difference. On previous weight loss attempts, I always ended up hungry, cranky, weak and miserable, but on Keto I started to feel better in a very short time. That makes all the difference and is the main reason I keep plodding along.

I'm really looking forward to seeing you!
