Is anyone interested in adding me and being weight loss lchf friends? My diary is open, although I eat mostly the same foods.

And also, don't go back more than two weeks in my diary... Lol I didn't log accurately then. To be fair, not too accurate now either but I am logging everything. :lol:

    My diary is public, but feel free to shoot me a friend request anyway. My diet is on a slow, constant evolution, so there's no telling what kind of weirdness you'll see over the past month. Prior to that though, it had been about three years since I logged anything.

    That's okay I only started 2 weeks ago. Well, actually three, but I messed up the first one by binging on carbs. Lol now I'm back into it. :lol:

    I'm wanting to stop logging as well, but damn I'm scared of it. Lol. I don't trust myself that much. But hopefully when I'm fully fat-adapted I will be able to rely on my hunger cues.

    That's exactly why I stopped - I was just eating breakfast / lunch / dinner regardless of hunger, just habit!! I've always struggled with thinking about what my next meal will be - I'm still very much a work in progress but now I feel confident that I've got the hang of my macro's I am trying to work on the hunger cues thing!! Having to fill in the diary was just another 3 meals a day conformity thing so I've let it go just now while I get my head round it. Just another barrier to get through!!

    Sending requests! Anybody feel free to add me. I log everything bc it's working for me to really keep me on track and it's become a habit to eat something and then track it. I don't find it forces me to eat beyond my hunger, but I does sway what I eat based on my macro ratio, which to me is a good thing.

    I'd love some LCHF friends! I am back to MFP and trying this. So far so good- I'm down about 4lbs since last Monday. I have a question about calories- how much do you suggest I set mine for? Here's my stats:
    SW: 213
    CW: 208.6
    5'5" 45 years old
    I already reset my macros but trying to do this within 1200 cals is super frustrating and leaves me hungry. Do I forget calories for awhile until ketosis kicks in? Do most people add back their excercise cals? I feel like such a Newb!! Any help is greatly appreciated! My diary is open- I'd love friends, feedback- whatevs!

    Definitely eat back half of your exercise calories, since you are already eating the lowest amount for health.

    Or, as you said, forget calories for a while until you are in ketosis and just eat until satisfied (note - SATISFIED, not stuffed). After that period you can go back to counting if you stopped losing weight, or if you still are losing, why tweak it when it ain't broken? :wink:

    I'm happy to have more Keto/LCHF friends. I've been at this for just over a year and just passed 60 pounds down this week. Happy to add any more friends and offer any encouragement that I can.

    I'd love some LCHF friends too! Here's my stats:
    SW: 193
    CW: 172.8
    5'7" 39 years old
    I'm at 1600 calories but lately I feel like its too many. At the end of the day, I need to get the fat down. I'm a daily food logger and great motivator.
