4 pounds away from my pre vacation weight I struggle but I will not give up

So I jumped on that bandwagon and did great. The extra weight fell off! In 1 week I lost 12 pounds. Then bites licks tastes and sips happened.... I've stalled and no longer in ketosis.... damnit..... I'm going to have to do some soul searching as to why I keep self sabotaging. Why does my will power falter? I have a feeling that it has to do with me trying to do this on my own and not relying on God. But I am struggling on how to change that. I definitely keep praying. But I cave to my temptations.

Ok so I went on vacation and completely ate and drank whatever I wanted! Including ice cream, cookies, soda, beer, pina colada ect..... I gained 15 pounds in total!!! It was the kick in the pants that I needed and I am back on that wagon. I am tracking my foods again and paying close attention to my electrolytes and water intake and taking my supplements. I struggle with consistency in all of that... but I am eating great choices. I have lost quite a few pounds already. I'd like to get back down to my 40 pounds down mark. 7 lbs to go to get back there. Then I will be after beating my ecoli weight! That will be exciting. It seems to be a cusp of mine where I look significantly better after I get around my ecoli weight. People start really commenting that I look good (its 50 pounds of weight loss) oddly enough people don't notice at much at the 40 pounds down range. I look better but they don't know why. I guess I hide my weight really well so people can't tell as easily ...
