I am to some things and not to others. Fruits, like honeydew melon and berries seem to produce either no reaction, or nothing visible at least. I can have dark chocolate with or without mint with no problems as long as it's a small piece. Haven't tried anything larger than 6 grams because I haven't wanted it. I can also…

^ That, but decaf and hot

I started keto during the winter and it was so much easier! Salame and cheese, or soups, hot tea and coffee, roasts, crockpot dishes. Of course that was in January, after the holidays. So this year I have to find alternate low carb dishes to make with those holiday dinners. But that said, berries, melons, fruit in general…

I love playing with this website, just wish it had an option to say "don't shrink the hips or shoulders more!" I'm an hourglass and am done losing weight in those areas, they're bony and have no fat covering any longer. It's really just my thighs and backside that will change now.

Scales are a-holes. I weigh daily, but I have a love for trend lines(biology major) and treat my body like my lab. Ditch it for awhile, then come back to it. Put the thing in a closet somewhere, with off season clothes in storage, whatever. Hormones and everything else play a role, they are also stupid and annoying.

I candle fairly regularly, one flock of hens who like to hide their eggs sometimes, and I've never found anything that I would have discarded an egg for. Blood clots have to be at least half the size of a dime to show on candling from my experience.

I don't add to my total number, but I move them around if I'm going to be doing strength training/ranch work. I find having a few (8-12g) helps me not bonk around hour 2. But I don't add any for cardio based workouts. I do however make sure to put a dash of salt in my coffee or have a salted egg if I'm going to be really…

Drat. ;)

I second this. Maintaining muscle requires using the muscle. And IF, being intermittent, doesn't require a decrease in calories consumed. If you want to keep your current schedule for fast feed there are plenty of super delicious super high calorie dishes that you could try.

About how much butter and almond meal did you use? I have that exact pie pan! I'm starting the hunt for "holiday" recipes, particularly for desserts. No one will bat an eye if I don't have potatoes and we have broccoli instead of corn, but they will harangue me for not having dessert on a holiday.

I wonder if this would work with a jello sugar free pudding mix. I have a box of sugar free pistachio in the cupboard that I was just going to make into standard pudding with whole fairlife milk. But maybe something like 1 small(4 serving) box of pudding 1 8oz brick of cream cheese, room temp 1 cup of HWC, or whole lc…

I wish there was a way to sort the order of how things appear in the newsfeed. Instead of chronological(strictly) you should be able to say "non-automatic updates receive priority at the top" or something. I know I've missed things because everything is chronological. I also wish the "so and so posted a new blog post:name…

I hear you, it can be so frustrating to try to find deli meats that aren't loaded down with sugar. All I want them to do is slice up a roast/turkey/ham into really thin slices! I don't want anything added to it, not salt, sugar, water, none of that.

My doctor and associated nutritionist are the leaders in the field of a very understudied condition, so pioneering the diet for it. [/quote] This is the phrase that I'd have a problem with. Are they more concerned about pioneering their diet for the condition, or about your overall health. You endured it once and it didn't…

If I am logging something like swimming, I'll use runtastic on the swimming setting. I use mapmyride connected to my jawbone(doesn't play nice with runtastic) for bike rides.

Other people noticed at around 12 pounds, but I didn't see much until 20 pounds or so. Like others I still don't LOVE what i see in the mirror, but I like it a lot more than before. If only spot reducing was a thing. My waist is small enough, I'd love it if those last ten pounds all came off my thighs and butt/hips.

OMG YESSSSSSSSS

I was no where near keto/lc a year ago. I stumbled into this on my own, then found out that the same nutritionist neglected to tell me I should be low carb(perhaps scared of me doing it better without her?), just super restricted my foods. I've been keto/lc for around 6-7 months and my condition is generally better, with…

I've never seen this before! Thanks for the laugh.

I remember starfruit being allowed(where in the world I was supposed to get it I don't know). And chicken broth, if homemade and including none of the chicken itself. Eta: She told me to "tough out" the fatigue, and that I'd eat the only allowed foods if I ever wanted to get better

I budget for 'higher' carb days, but I stay well in ketosis under 50 grams based on how I feel and the smell of my breathe(hello there acetone). So I have one or two days per month where I get close to 50 because of oatmeal and berries :) but I never really kick myself out with a cheat day.

They have a bacon flavor concentrate, and butter. I could see this being very dangerous.... ;)

https://img1.etsystatic.com/003/1/5873598/il_fullxfull.380290207_7sk8.jpg I'd love to find something like this. It works well for those of us who have some more hip/thigh/butt. But I don't know if I'll really be going out for samhain, or staying in with family.

The medical community loves to do studies, they love studies that confirm what they already "know to be true", studies that show other things are called outliers until the tide changes.

I just joined today, but down to my lowest weight yet this morning. 137.9

I probably won't use videos, as I put together my own routines. But I'll lurk in here and offer encouragement/ask for it if needed.

I'm in. I'd like to lose 10 lbs by then, which would put me at goal weight or a little below. And I'll be dressing up as...something. Probably a classy witch.

Buying cute, age appropriate things! I'm in my late teens, but I've always dressed in "older" clothes because the cute teen/early 20s clothes never looked good on me. Soon I will look good in leggings!

This. Particularly since you list 2 weeks as the time period. In my case I notice the natural but evil voodoo fluctuations much more if I'm on lower calories. Maybe it makes the fluctuations more pronounced, maybe I'm just watching more closely, but they definitely get more annoying.
