It's been 1 year since I started this journey

It's officially been 1 year now since I started on this weight loss/fitness journey. Today, I feel like I haven't come too far. Went out this a.m. (pre-dawn); it was soooo humid- like, "where's the oxygen?" because it was difficult to breathe in any! Too humid to run, I walked 2.4 mi. Feet hurt, knee hurt, and sweating like it's my first time outside. This isn't fall yet. I can't wait for it to get cooler. So, the KETO diet. Not working for me. In fact, I've gained weight! I cannot get myself into a ketogenic state, and I've been eating almost no carbs. Plus, it's so restrictive on the variety of foods you can eat. So, I'm having one of those bad days, mentally as well, because I feel like nothing seems to work. I won't whine about it here, enough said. I've got about 3 1/2 months until the race event. I hope I can do this. To follow along on my journey, read my previous post here .
