i have been doing LCHF x 4 weeks. initially started at 194lbs, now at 188lbs. i have not had any loss on the scale x 2.5 weeks. I exercise moderately x 30 mins (alternating biking to work and weight lifting) 3-4x/wk. I feel like i have lost belly fat but now seem kind of stalled. Sticking with it as it has eliminated a lot…

Have you considered kombucha? Has high acid content, tastes better than ACV and is probiotic. Some but very little carbs if just drinking small aperitif type amounts. Can culture at home to reduce the carb concentration by culturing longer. It has helped by upper GI (and lower GI) issues a lot

I just started LCHF this week, down 4 lbs - most likely water weight. Prior to this, I have been on Paleo (but moderate carb) for years. In the last 8 months, I have fallen off the wagon due to a hip fracture (unrelated, crappy vitamin D production in Canada). I am 194 lbs, goal weight 145 lbs. I try to plot most days if…

can't stomach the sweeteners in the protein powders and have not found one I like, so make my protein pancakes with cottage cheese in the blender instead. Definitely not dry...

same as above, but also chickpeas/beans, venison, shrimp (frozen and cooked)

ABSOLUTELY! I have had abdominal pain since I was 5years old. I had an upper GI scope x 2, followed paleo diet x years and eliminated coffee, wine, etc... What helped? Stopping coffee, and drinking kefir and being grain free. But I ditched coffee and grain prior and it only helped a bit. The kefir was like magic. If…

daily, it keeps me on track. I don't stress if it goes up after a bad day of eating, it just reminds me of why I need to get back on track the next day

pre-logging calories just prior to a meal helps me from going overboard with the calories.

I am perhaps a bit higher in the carb range. I eat about 55% fat, 25-30% protein, 15-20% carbs, +/- 5%. I eat paleo, low carb/grain free and count calories, at -500cal/day from my maintenance to have a 1lb/wk weight loss (as I am over weight). I eat back my exercise calories but am conservative with their measurements. I…

I think a sports physio is a good idea, thanks. Considering walking is causing pain if more than about 15 mins, I worry about rowing. Even biking hurts a bit. Apparently my stress fracture is an "unstable" type due to its location. I am an MD, but not an ortho, and the mechanics of it all are a bit more complex than the…

I run in north/central Canada. My cut off to run outside is -15 C (have no idea what that is in F), but it is cold. I wear wool base pants and top, with a wicking running sweater, heavy fleeced running pants, another fleece sweater, my reflective running jacket, my ski face mask (head and face and forehead, only see the…
