Hi! My name is Marilee and I started Keto 16 days ago. So far so good minus a few days with a terrible headache. I Started keto for blood sugar reasons. I had them under control and was doing great the beginning of the year but from March to June I gained about 20 lbs... I started all my old habits again. Trying to not let…

I had that terrible headache for five days straight. Nothing worked... no matter how much a drank and what I drank, though full salt chicken broth did make me feel a little better. I’ve been headache free for three days now so hoping it’s gone! I feel for ya!

Thanks everyone for your replies. Had some tests done today and had a long talk with my doctor and received some insight. I’ll post about it on a new thread later to hopefully help others like me!

Just hard to believe it is calories since all of that and I have eliminated over 8,000 calories a week!

I’ll try logging in again. Sad thing is I lost 50 lbs 2 years ago with ease while drinking pop with my exact same diet as now and less exercise. I don’t really try new recipes and I eat way smaller dinner than before... and gave up my high fat get home from work snack. Gained some back when started drinking alcohol so did…

Luckily Ive turned into a creature of food habit so I don’t need to log much. I eat the same thing every day from waking till dinner. Two boiled eggs and two tablespoons of salsa, three pieces of celery and a tablespoons of peanut butter, 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds. 8 cubes of chicken, and avocado, a cup of raw spinach…

Oh and it isn’t that I’m close to my goal weight or anything... I still have 59 lbs of body fat according to system.

Hello! My doc put me on Victoza just 6 days ago at .6 due to high A1c. I can't say I have the same experience as you, but then again I'm unsure what your dose is. I move up to 1.2 on Thursday so we will see how that effects me!

Yea, I just faced it! 9 pounds... Grr. I have four more trips over the next few months... Branson, Vegas, San Francisco, and Orlando, but I'm going alone most these times so that should help!

I lost 8 pounds in my first 21 days. Faster than what I thought. I just walked an extra 15 minutes and stayed honest in my entries while staying in my goal, the default one that was set by my fitness pal.

Good morning! And good job getting up and at me this early!! I say this as I lay in bed looking for more motivation! ;-)

Nice progress!! It is a lot harder to lose the further in we get! I think you found a fun way to motivate yourself! I say go for it! But you have to post your "after pic". :-). Let the countdown begin!

Thank you! Tip toe... I have some before pics I hid somewhere and I need to get a few full body ones for current after. Perhaps today. All about the cake... I have lost about 50 of the 100 I have for a goal.. Probably should lose another 30 after that but that's a future goal! Thank you all for the kind words! I'll try to…

Oh, it is closer to 50 pounds I guess. 265 to 218 since December 23.
