So I’ve been making pretty good progress up until mid of this week, I “gained” around 2kg (4lbs) and I was pretty surprised. I checked the calendar and yep, it’s about that time of the month.

So today I woke up extremely grumpy and exhausted, drank some coffee which didn’t fix it, still dragged myself to workout, died at the workout, got back home, and listened to my colleague talk endlessly.

I made some delicious keto protein pancakes (2 eggs, acacia fibre, 100% dark cocoa powder, protein powder, coconut milk) for lunch, which helped my mood somewhat, then I said, fuck it, and I went shopping.

When I came back home I made keto friendly egg bites for dinner which my husband loved, but I somehow was still hungry and kind of ravenous and still annoyed and grumpy. So I ate a protein bar, which was too many carbs. Sigh. Anyway, I’ll try again tomorrow.

Someone please pray for me my period actually starts soon so my mood improves and this whole water retention bs is gonna go away. What’s mentally exhausting is I don’t know for sure it’s water retention unless and until my period actually arrives.

To all the women and ladyfolk out there, how did your body adapt to keto and a calorie deficit in terms of menstruation? I’m in need of some wisdom or even just kind words please. I think I’m gonna cry. 😢

Hey fellow dance enthusiasts!👋

I’m f29, 168cm tall and would like to find a reliable lead partner for salsa classes, workshops and parties. I’m not a complete beginner but haven’t danced in a long time. I technically don’t care if you’re a man or a woman, as long as you’re comfortable leading. :)

Would be nice to find a dance partner who is as passionate about salsa as me :)

I’d love to hear from you via DM!

PS: I also speak German, not looking for a boyfriend, and not interested in bachata.
