    I started lazy keto January 2017, I am down 50 lbs. And I've been stalled for a few months, seems I keep gaining & losing the same 5 lbs. I recently analyzed and figured out my macros, so I'm now not so lazy. I'm hopeful things will turn around soon. I'm thrilled at how my clothes are getting looser.

    I seem to go full force on one specific food for a long time....for decades it was chocolate. And now for the first time in my entire life, I crave bacon. I still hate the smell of bacon, and try to make it first thing in the morning and open all of my windows to air my house out. Bacon is what I've been eating everyday for....at least 6 weeks.

    Feel free to add me!!! I am a good support person.

    Hi yall.
    I am new to Keto and MFP. I need to lose 100 or more pounds. Not really sure what my weight is don't have a scale but will have on by Monday. I am keeping my carbs below 20 but it seems my calories that I need are quite high. Over 2100. I reduced that to between 1500-1700 daily. I'm trying to learn about this and it seems like I need to eat mostly fats? Does it matter what type? Bacon or Almonds?
    I guess there's a part of me that is scared this won't work. I'm on day 3 and doing ok Just a little down emotionally...
    I am trying to also learn how to not have my evening emotional eating / binge.....I would love to give and receive support.
    Thanks

    Girl, I'm right there with you. My nutritionist worked it all out, and my calorie goals were 2080.

    Here's a fun little tidbit about me:
    SW: 269.4
    CW: 247.6 (as of 8/4)
    Heigh: 5'2"
    Starting Date: June 27, 2017

    This is my 2nd day - my first day I was under 325 calories but over carbs by 15 net. Struggling to find balance. Feel free - anyone - to reach out and supply pep talks - advice - firm words of encouragement. LOL I lost 35# walking last summer but then winter hit & I didn't have the motivation anymore.... Then doc told me that I am 61.1# of body fat - now I don't even want to look at a carb or ice cream.... ug . LOL
