you can change your macros in the goals section. just select custom, not guided, and switch your carbs to 5%, protein to 25% and your fat to 75% and then enter your calorie goal based upon your bmr. thats what ive done. there are also a few groups that are keto/lchf friendly. :) welcome.

ikr...^^ thank you all for your advice and support. im just going to eat eggs from now on hahahaha!! :) and it WAS one meal, it does suck that im still recuperating from it, however. im just going to keep on ketoing on. i love having the community on my side, it really does help to have some solidarity, after a lifetime of…

ive only been doing this for a short while. i generally need to eat less than 20 grams net carbs. :)

i checked the website and it correlated with mfp. 46 carbs for two servings of asparagus. ive eaten asparagus plenty of times, and this was a bit...shocking. no, no bread. i was understandably horrified. my jaw literally dropped. i dont know how they prepare it. they have the asparagus as a separate side. i only ate…

Sabine, i havent a clue...it was grilled asparagus and steak. it did taste a bit lemony, yet there was no sauce on it, it looked like any plain grilled asparagus. i tried to look up what they do to it, and i did not find anything. im still a bit baffled.

i read this a while ago, and it clicked, then i binged...for a month. now im back on track, a week in, and i looked this back up, so i can stay focused on reality. thank you.

i appreciate, very much, the support and encouragement. :) i will just ignore any symptoms, and pretend they arent there. :)

thank you deansdad. :) my mouth screams no no no, i want sweet creamy coffee! and there's this small niggling voice in the back of my mind that taps me on the shoulder and whispers "that *kitten* is awful for you". i think that i will set a goal for myself in regards to my usage, and go forward.

now if i can just get rid of the sugar free syrups. thus far, ive had no impact from them, yet im only a little under a week in. :)

well, in my own experience (which is not vast), my body odor gets very ammonia like. this is my third time doing this (i know, i know) and it seems fairly reliable, at least for me.

^^^i need this reminder in a few weeks, when im discouraged and feeling like giving up and stuffing cake into my cake hole. :)

hi there! im just beginning (THIS leg of the same journey) and ive read so much, so so much! i am using lite salt, and i plan on making my own special pumpkin dessert to take to the familys, and eating much ham and turkey with many veggies. :) one step at a time. one day at a time. one hour at a time.

anyone can feel free to add me as well. :)

wtf did i just read....so eat ketones wrapped in furlongs?

hi im Lori. im 5' 10" 196 lbs goal is 165lbs

im doing low carbing, not sure what to label it...probably keto. always interested in like minded friends. :)

i agree, there is always going to be critics. and mean people. :) not every person is mean, though. you look lovely.

i have a total of 25 to lose, i would love to have motivation to get my butt on the bike every day!! please add me, any and all! :)

ugh, i know how you feel. ive been doing the same thing...eating and exercising very well during the week, and 'treating' myself with food over the weekends. i just started back counting calories two weeks ago, i was doing low carb for two months, and i ended up back at square one, i had just maintained the weight loss…

thank you for sharing your success! :) Congrats!

i just put my numbers in, it seems like its approximately the same as all the other ones out there. :) it takes tweaking to get it 100% for yourself as an individual. :)

i log my calories before i eat, in the morning, over coffee. :) that way i can tweak it as needed. :)

i tried to add as well...deactivated...

i just simply walk around.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! i read it too....
