  • Mentally designating as not mine. I'm going to try my hardest to mentally designate in the future. If that somehow works...I'm going to make it! Thank you !!!
  • Oh, I'm happy to see I'm not the only one with BED. I often felt ashamed when I always ate more ( and faster) than my husband. I binge ate everything I loved. Pasta, cake, chocolate... It was ridiculous. Keto keeps my cravings in check also but my will power is still crap. My husband brings home pastry and junk once in a…
  • All sounds perfect. Should we start?! Oh, btw...I keep getting this error
  • Okay. Let's do this!
  • Okay then. It's settled! No water pills. I just wanted to know if the scale will go faster while taking them.
  • I see. It was just a thought. I'm usually not bloated when I eat keto so I don't really need them.
  • Current weight 178.6 lbs Fast/Feed Schedule 23/1 or One meal a day, which will be dinner. I will probably ( and usually) have around 750 calories, give or take 100. Supplements Vitamin D and Iron. Exercising I'm not sure...I might do 30 minutes on treadmill, every day. I have to see if that will impact my fast. If it makes…
  • I lost 30 lbs and 4 inch from that area under your boobs? Between the boobs and belly button :) 1 inch from the neck and half an inch from my belly.....but it feels like I lost a lot because my pants are too big now and after wearing them for 30 minutes they slide down so I have to keep pulling like a 7 year old. I'm a…
  • Losing weight is a very hard thing to do, otherwise everybody would walk around skinny. From my experience it is a journey and it takes a lot for your brain to switch into weigh loss gear. Keep trying and if you have a day where you eat a whole pack of biscuits, it's is alright....start fresh the next day, maybe by…
  • If you have Heinz dill relish and mayo and some net carbs wraps all you need is those 1 serving punches of tuna ( now they have various flavours) and make tuna salad wraps. It takes 5 minutes. Also the canned chicken breast makes great chicken salad wraps.
  • Like everybody else said already, try potassium, sodium... See if you feel any better. If you don't, stop and see your doctor. You have to be quite healthy to eat ketogenic. I first had my annual lab tests done before I embarked. If you had it done also and everything was okay, than you have To try things that everybody…
  • @professionalHobbyist feels so right to see guys excited about SALES! :) Whats your goal? 34? @Fvaisey I understand your trauma. When I had to squish in size 14 I thought it was the end of the world. Right then and there I decided that I have to get serious about my eating habits. @Mami1976D, I also seem to change sizes…
  • @CoconuttyMummy that's alright. No offense taken. I'm just not much of a cook, let alone baker.
  • I don't know what the recent events were but @Kitnthecat told me it was a carnage. She didn't really used that word but anywhoo... My name is Astharteea ( Asharteea) I'm 33 years old and I gained 80 lbs in the past 8 years due to depression and some sort of verbal abuse in the beginning of my marriage. I moved to USA in…
  • @slimzandra I am surprised to see 180 size 18. I would have thought 14 at the most. Size 10 at 140 lbs sounds more likely. And I know what you mean about being 160 lbs. I think that's when people started asking me if I'm pregnant :))))) Ahahhah. Actually start feeling fat when I get over 126. My face starts to change…
  • @Teneko You are right. Sizes do vary and also people change sizes differently and also wear different sizes at different weights. It just seems that most of us are close in numbers.
  • 1- 35 grams a day. I did have 2 peaches, 1 lbs of cherries and 1 lbs of strawberries, all in 3 different days and weeks. I'm also planing to have more cherries.
  • French fries every time I go out to eat I chose a Keto dish but I can't help not adding the French fries. Pringles and chocolate, I'm never tempted to buy them but if my husband has them in the house, I can't help it.
  • @auntstephie321 awesome cat you have! Also, it feels so good to see bones :)) and feel your abdomen moving with your hips when you walk. Can't wait to get there again. @Sunny_Bunny_ so at 143 lbs you'll be an even sexier size 8! You are so close and probably very happy.
  • @Kitnthecat My lbs and sizes are in the past 10 years, that's when I was 108 lbs and size 0 :) So those are all sizes I went through and I want to do it all over again. But I see @auntstephie321 , you and I kind of change size to the ( approximately) same amount of lbs. I'm only 5.4 in height. I usually start feeling…
  • I am one of those people that lose weight faster if I lower my calories to 750 -1000 a day and keep it at no more than 25 grams of carbs. The problem is it took me a few months while I experimented with things to see what works and what doesn't for me. In these few months I went up and down 8-10 lbs. Now since I know what…
  • What size were you at 205 lbs? (14) At 180 lbs?(12) 160 lbs?(10) 140 lbs? (8) 120 lbs? (6) 115 lbs ?(4) 110 ? (2) 108 ? (0 )
  • Ahhahaha @Kitnthecat, you made me laugh out loud. Btw of cheat days, I never plan one but I had days when I had social obligations and I couldn't help myself and had drinks and fries and what not so I went way way over carb wise. It is true... It takes a lot to lose the lbs gained. Today I had a whole chocolate, full of…
  • I couldn't have said it better! :)
  • @professionalHobbyist Yes, I also had the low carb flat out and the Mission net carb wrap. I usually have chicken or tuna salad with it. But I just wanted a pastrami and corn beef sandwich with rye bread so the wraps were not cutting it. I was also getting tired of bunless burgers and those ThinSlim buns are surprisingly…
  • @auntstephie321 , noooo! They have to stay in the freezer at all times so if you only have sandwiches and burgers once a week... You are going to have the bread for a while :) Mine last for 2 months :) My husband eats regular bread, so each bread has 16 slices and the burger buns, 8 I think.
  • I lost total of 27 lbs in 5 months but I did eat a French fry here and there. I drank some cocktails, got a small Dq blizzard, had some cherries... Overall, I keep my carbs under 30 grams and sugar is 0 g 95% of the time. Lately I also started to fast.
  • I don't even try to make bread but I ordered some hamburger buns from ThinSlim Foods and they are delicious!!!! They only have 1 carb (net) per bun. Also Great Low Carb Bread Company makes this rye and sour dough bread with 1 net carb per slice. I never get any side effect from eating it so I think they are safe. I only…
