Been a while since I’ve done keto, any helpful tips?

Okay, so I went on keto with my mom 2 years ago and lost 9 pounds in less than a month. I felt cleaner and just better about myself. It was easier to do because me and my mom could watch over each other and make sure neither of us were tempted to cheat. Now I live with my sister(I can’t even get that train started) and there is no way I can rely on her to help me stay on track. She never sticks to healthy food for long, constantly looking for excuses to eat junk.(he doctor told her she needed to start eating more fatty foods for health and she bought hot chips and junk food) she can do whatever she wants but it’s also hard for me because she keeps that food in the house. I’m trying to start because I just feel unhealthy and i want to eat better. I can’t afford anything too expensive or time consuming. For now I just bought keto bread and eggs, but the bread smells and tastes like dog food and I get sick of eggs so fast. Everything I find that might be keto friendly is just expensive or tastes nasty.. I remember this being so much easier after the second week but I can’t even get to that. I feel like I’m starving at work so I end up eating cup ramen since it’s small and only like 47 carbs, but I’m limiting myself to 25 a day so I can’t keep doing that. Anything that is easy to meal prep or a grab and go for breakfast and lunch, I don’t mind cooking when I get home from work for dinner.. dude this has been stressing me out so much because it’s been so hard to start without support. Maybe I’m just weak and need someone there to help me stay on track.. it doesn’t help that I’ve also been trying to start light work outs.. I just need someone guidance here

Which college should I apply to?

Guys I might actually be screwed.. Graduating with a beautiful 1.8 gpa and a 19 on my ACT. Then college.. I did two semesters, and it basically went down the drain because that was around the time I moved out and lost my car, only friend, but gained a stalker and months of being scared and anxious. So basically, I did terrible in high school, worse in college, and now after a break and cleaning up my life, I’m ready to go back and finally be a good student again. But the problem is who would even take me? I have a full time 9-5 job, I also get government benefits for going to school. So tuition exemption and a month stipend. I refuse to quit my job because it was my big break. I’m trying to find something in state(Louisiana) so that my benefits apply, but also something that would even accept me with my academic past. Hopefully fully online and I don’t have to miss any work either.. please someone help me. Btw I went to SOLACC, so if I go back I’d either have to do a semester without my benefits(which I don’t know if I can even afford) OR I’d have to put in an appeal.. I don’t doubt an appeal would work but it takes a while and I’m looking for something to start soon if I can.

For some background, in the past 5 years, I’ve been stressed out of my mind. When I was 14, my brother moved his girlfriend into our house, they had an extremely toxic relationship that affected everyone in the house. I spent most of my time in my room and even developed ticks. Right when she was going to get kicked out, she wound up pregnant. 6 months after my nephew was born, the split and it’s been 4 years and we’re still dealing with her with court. I basically became a full time babysitter the second I got home from school. Both of my uncles died, I lost most of my friends, and became extremely depressed although I never told anyone. I even developed body image issues because of comments that 24yr made to my face and behind my back. I moved out at 17 with my only friend and started college.. she moved out a month later and left me alone, got a new job and one of the men who worked there ended up stalking me for months and my managers hardly did anything.. lost my car twice, ended up moving in with my sister who relied heavily on me to cover basically both our bills because she didn’t want to keep a job(pretty sure that’s why she asked me to move in) because of this, I barely stayed present in hs. Worst part is, I was a really good student before all of this. I did well in all of my classes, teachers loved me, and I had a lot of friends. I never even dated because I wanted to focus on school.

Does Capella accept VA Benefits?

Specificity chapter 35 and title 29… I don’t think I could afford to go if they don’t accept these benefits.. I’m fine with switching between flex and guided paths but I need to know before I fully enroll because the woman I am speaking to hardly knows anything.
