I was just researching the rules and food guidlines of keto and really want to try it. But im not 100% committed to giving up my weekend/ every second weekend drink/snack night with my hubby. He will follow the diet with me even though he doesnt need to so i dont want to completely deprive him. The thing im most scared…

I just tried to type in "instant oatmeal" on the desktop and it came up with nothing..lol

I was having issues from my phone yesturday as well! Simple stuff that I know would normally show up was not! It would bring up other stuff though. Maybe just a glitch. Or something got switched when I got my new phone saturday.

I have been doing alot of research on keto and trying to get the mind frame to just do it and cut out everything I need to. I have about 40lbs to lose! I think having people who are doing it as well will keep me accountable and motivated to stick with it! (as a girl who loves carbs and sweets and alcohol this will be very…

http://www.fitbit.com/user/773GGB Feel free to add me! I just started using mine 2 weeks ago. I work a desk job so most days im lucky to hit 5 or 6000. So dont ask me to compete if your someone who runs 5k every day or worksout 2hrs a day aha Im waiting till I get to the gym again to see if i can finally hit 10k steps!

I really think it all depends on your mentality. I use to do alternate day fasting and really didnt find it that bad. Its like you know when you wake up on fasting days you cant eat that day, and have a strong mindframe on it. With 16:8 which i was doing a few months ago, I found I was constantly watching the clock waiting…

I really want to try keto! I know I wouldnt be 100%..id still allow the odd treat either with family on the weekend or a speacial occasion, but would love to try it for a while and see how it goes. I was hesitant because i figured i would have to either constantly research what I could eat and follow a strict plan (which…

its so hard!! I buy all the healthy food..but never crave a salad in the winter. I want the warm comfort food. and weekends I alwayysss give into having some drinkings and chips or something with the hubby. I gained 20lbs after kids (40 since getting married 6ys ago) and now I keep going up and down between the same 3lbs.…

Thats awesome! I also work a desk job so I will definitely have to set that feature up!

Ive been to many doctors appointments and have never had my weight come up as part of an exam. But im 5'3 and even before my pregnancies was around 175. So he doesnt need to look hard or pinch to see im overweight. That being said.. evening during my pregnancies and gaining another 20lbs plus gestational diabetes, neither…

I have been doing this for about 3+ weeks now. I put my goal in at loosing 1.5lbs per week. And even that i find difficult as I have not got into weighing and measuring every little thing before eating it. Some days im over my cals by 100 or 2. Some days i stay right now. Never under. its frustrating and i feel like im…

Im a mom of a 2yr old and 1yr old and a picky eating husband! The supper fight is continuous. I try to plan healthy meals, suppers are not toooo bad. I try to get to bed early to get up at 5am and go to the gym before work because I know once i am home I will neverrrr get back out to do so. And the thought of fighting with…

I do only log my end of week weight. I guess I just like to see the scale to know how what I chose to eat the day before effects me, espeically if im feeling flatter or more bloated and if it did spike my weight, even if it is just temporary water weight, to try and avoid a particular food from now on.

aha very true! Like i told someone else, starting this journey in dec is a dangerous mission, but, not impossible and if anything, count cals through it all, be mindful of what you are eating, and use it as a practice month to get in the habbit of cal counting then you will be ready to jump in full force come jan first aha…

Perfect! lol I do go over my calories quite a few days (not from eating junk food or soda though), usually by around 100 cals. But weekends we normally sleep in and dont eat until around noon anyways (as appose to week days when im up between 5&6am) and if i know im going to be indulging that night will try and eat good if…

I would loveeee to lose 30lbs in 6 months..hell even 20lbs, but the reality of it is that i dont have the strength or lung capacity to do intense workouts, and my head game isnt in it 100% still because i to am still making excuses like..its the weekend, were going to a party, its a babies first steps celebration, to…

These are so motivating to read! I am on my second week and still going over my cals a bit most days, and have started working out a bit most mornings but due to weight and inactivity level do not seem to have the strength or lung capacity to burn as much as others in a session but im hoping in the next few months Ill to…

I like your style! aha

Oh girl! Im the same way! I have researched and attempted short term every diet out there, I have googled reviews or even tried mannnyy of the weight loss pill gimmicks with a smidge of hope that even if was a..placebo effect, that it would trick me into doing better so the pills would work and id quickly lose a few and it…

I just heard that cows milk has more sugar in it. And that cream is better because of the fat..or almond milk because its lower in cals/sugar..guess it all depends but..it seems like no one really cares about that aha

Yes. Like i said..I have been using it the last few days, including today as i write this post, and hate the taste of it.

I never liked cream in my coffee, it seemed to heavy for me, but havent tried it in a long time. If anything it would be 1% cows milk. I know tracking in mfp theres a decent cal dif as i put a good 3 tbs prob but..I dont know if its really going to make a difference weight wise if i am fitting it into my cals..just figured…

Ive never actually kept track🤷‍♀️ i walk to and from buses/bus stops..a bit around the office.. and just in the last week or two have gotten into going to the gym in the morning before work but cant go full out yet and seem to burn around 300cals while im there (only there 40mins)..

Lol figured. As much as i hate putting that info out there.. height is 5"4, weight is 196 (i think ive lost half a pound this week though) and my goal weight is 160.

I dont even know what you mean by "Stats" lol sorry..

I am looking to lose about 30+ lbs. Do not have any set timeframe though.

Ill add you :) Im looking for friends relatively new to this or have been doing it a while and can give support and understanding. Some take this way to serious and have me already so confused and frustrated and feeling like a failure. Steer clear of them lol

No aha I add it to water in the mornings or evening because i read it had different benefits to it but it more so helps keep you full longer.

I am not sure lol I have it set to lose 1.5lbs per week. I do go over my goal dialy but around 100cals..but..its making me super cautious of what im eating and how much.
