A quick post. Read here about eating cinnamon for sugar craving
http://cinnamonvogue.com/blog/6-reasons-why-cinnamon-can-kill-your-sugar-cravings/
I have actually read about this. I used to do it all the time while I was eat High Carb Low Fat, and it never worked (gee, I wonder why? Lol) Might have to add some.
I've toyed with the idea that it might be because of lady time, but my cycle is so all over the place (still adapting to keto) that I'm never sure when's what. I have experienced a common symptom I always have around that time, which is constipation. Which is why I thought it a possibility.
I guess if it is hormones, it just caught me off guard. I usually need to be very vigilant and mindful to not overeat at that time. Le sigh.0 -

I've used it and it worked for me. I do high protein low carb moderate to low fat
I guess it depends on the macros maybe, high carb lead to spike in the blood sugar.0 -

Im not a super active poster, but wanted to let you know Im here and working on it! Hit the iron last night after 2 WEEKS off...damn labor day! Feeling good today. Focusing on my diet!

Ladies. Your posts and the way you support each other is AMAZING
Thank you for making this thread very friendly and supportive.
It's Wednesday which is a weigh in day for some of you. You don't need to post anything but write down your weight and take body measurements on a paper to compare in the future.
Sometimes the scale doesn't move but you've lost size so having both written down would be good for those days.

Hi! I'd like to join the group if there's room.1

I have got 40lb to lose. I am doing keto at 70% fat, 25% protein and 5% carbs. I have been slacking off with my portion control so the weight is not coming off as it should. I want to zero in on that; log everything and weigh my food instead of eye-balling my serving sizes. I hope joining this thread will help me stay focused and motivated. Working out is not a big deal for me. I do weight training (I love to lift), HIITs, and I bike in the morning 2-3 a week (not a morning person); a total of at least an hour 6 days a week.
My daily goal is 140g fat, 113g of protein, and 23g of carbs. I drink 100oz of water. I will report my daily totals later today.
Thanks for welcoming me into the group!3 -

Sorry to hear that. Injuries can have a very demorilizing effect especially if they prevent you from doing what you love. I have been dealing with the same thing for over a year. I am too stubborn (or stupid) to go see a doctor so I've been avoiding things that cause pain.
I hope physio starts working for you.0 -
I had an exemplary day today. I stayed on point with calories and macros. I had an awesome 3lb loss weigh in, and lifted heavy (for me). First time did a 100lb deadlift. Overall a good day. Hope you ladies had a good day as well4

I love that there was no stress eating today. 4 months ago I'd have eaten a weeks worth of calories today...and all carbs lol!
they should have a gym at hospitals for people waiting for family to get out of surgery!!
I can't wait to weigh Saturday! thanks for starting this thread moonkat it totally remotivated me!
I'm very happy to hear you're motivated by this thread, you made my day
How's your daughter doing?
Yes they should have a gym at the hospital for everyone starting with doctors and nurses. And remove the fast food and chocolate vendors from the hospital.
daughter is in a lot of pain...we ended up staying over as they kept her on morphine
in 8 weeks she starts pt to bend her knee. I'm so happy we are home!!!

Why wouldn't you go see a doctor? Specially you do weight training.
I've seen a physio. chiro and last Monday an RMT, which I might book another session if the pain didn't go.
You have to take good care of yourself 0 -
