Been keto 2.5 years. Your motivation is that it gets better and better as your body becomes fat adapted. Six months in is the peak.

That just means you only had 5ish lbs of water weight to lose... keep it up and don’t stop counting calories. Aim for a 500cal deficit each day if you want to lose a consistent lb/week (3500 calories in a lb of fat)

Trying to have faith but my recent cycle netted 16 eggs, 8 fertilized and only 2 made it to day 5 for testing. There were 3 others that just didn’t mature. This is my third cycle and I’ve been pretty positive up until today. It’s especially hard to get this news in the middle of a work day. Just tired, still bloated and not feeling all that hopeful as we enter this LONG wait until we get the results next week. I hate feeling like this knowing my chances are getting slimmer by the day.
