    Yesterday afternoon we ended up going to my in-laws after lunch. There were a bunch of desserts and snacks but I stuck to the raw veggies and a few mixed nuts. In the past I would have had way to much to eat.

    I'm at 200. This weekend was body rock bottom for me. I don't want to be the fattest person in the room anymore. My goal is 160.

    It was my youngest son's birthday today. I had a half slice of pizza and a half piece of cake. So not a great day for low carb.

    Great success for so many is good to read. I have been maintaining at just under 50 grams of carbs for the last two years in the 195-210 range as my health recovers and would like to shift my range down to 170-185 for the long haul. After getting off of most sugar (all added sugar) and all forms of all grains Oct 2014 the carb cravings started to fade after the first two weeks. While I was losing inches it was 6 weeks before the scales started going down.

    While I do not actively track what I eat it is typically 2000+ calories and I stay in a mild state of nutritional ketosis 95% of the time and never go hungry like the 40 years of yo-yoing diets that lead to 100%+ regains every time until moving to this LCHF way of eating. I walk at least 1/4 of a mile every day down and back up a steep hill unless there is ice on the road.

    A couple times I did load up on carbs twice in late 2014 but it is so not fun so I stopped doing it.

    Everyone is different with different goals so do the way that works for your goals. My main goal was pain manage and to regain my mobility.

    I am in! I just started as well. I weigh 170 and want to get to 155. I am still researching and reading. From what I can gather I should be at 75% Fat, 20 % Protein and 5% carbs.
    My plan at this time:
    Stay under 20 grams of net carbs
    Eat approx. 1400 calories a day
    Looking forward to some accountability!! Thanks everyone!

    Happy June!

    I have the same macros and same basic goals :)

    What does 50 grams look like??
