@143tobe - Do you have an open food diary? I don't know if I'm doing a keto diet or not- I haven't read up on it, but I had a trainer that had me focus on getting a minimum of protein grams (high) and staying within a maximum of carb grams (low) each day. For me, getting that higher protein intake means I'm not as hungry and am better able to resist binges, which is great. However, I am not a huge meat lover either and often find it hard to get the protein without eating a lot of meat. I'm always looking for people that seem to have it down - and aren't totally carnivores - for ideas and ways of eating! Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Yes, my diary is open. I am far from have everything down, I just do what works for me. Please send me a friend request! That goes for anyone on our team.
I do usually eat two eggs a day. I am curious how this higher cholesterol diet will affect my blood levels, so I should probably have those checked soon. Previously, even when at a higher weight my cholesterol levels were always pretty ideal so I am actually really curious about that.

I hate the Woo's!! It should be, Woohoo! I did notice that some people in the challenges used the Woo's to be positive, so in these cases I never took offense. But in general they need to get rid of that Woo button. @mjohemme , I'm still trying to figure out what it DOES mean, lol.0 -
@gjaholy33 Take care of yourself, that's the most important thing, if that means staying in and being a hermit--so be it Besides, the most important part of the weight loss plan is DIET, you can't undo a poor diet with exercise.
@tinak33 Taking the stairs at work is impressive, you go girl!!
@ka97 I completely agree, regardless of how you do it, losing weight and keeping it off is a lifestyle change. And congrats for your amazing transformation!! That's a great accomplishment and you should be proud of yourself!!
@Calli1616 I have an open food diary and I do Keto, and while I'm not solely a "meat head" I do eat meat, and lots of green veggies, salads, avocados, etc. I think it's extremely hard to eat low carb, focus on eating an appropriate amount of protein and not eat meat, it's just hard.
I would say that if you're not intentionally doing keto, you're probably not as the point of keto is to eat low carb to the point of your body being in a constant state of ketosis (fat burning for fuel). Having said that, it is possible to be keto on accident with a low carb diet. Keto is low carb, "moderate" protein and "high" fat. I eat a higher amount of protein on my keto diet to support my muscle growth and I'm usually around the 30-35% mark and fat around the 60% mark depending on my carb intake.

Hey everyone so good to just to check in for day 4 it was awesome even though I had to stay inside I still kept to my meals and I even had my Aid go to the store and buy me some baby carrots and peanut butter so I can have something to snack on when I have those urges so I can say I'm ending this on a positive note.
Calories under
Track yes
Exercise no ( but I've been reading up on yoga for overweight people and I think that that's going to be my routine in the future since I am having problems with my knees and my back. So I purchase a book today and I've been reading all about it, yes even when it comes to exercising and changing your regimen you have to do your research)
