You're not alone

Yep love it great for pizza and wraps or cut up and toasted for chips with hummus or goat cheese

I've been using vitamin world precision engineered, taste is good and its always on sale

Thank you

:( my little old lady passed away on the 8th it's been really hard. I was gonna post some pics of here but looking at this thread made me cry. I'm doing better now though so when I can get on the site and figure out what pics to share we'll load ya up ;)

I bet this has always happened but I didn't notice because I was always over eating

Oh no I hope I didn't jinx you lol

I'm 5'6". Thank you. I just did the most recent pic a week ago and was amazed, I'm slightly obsessed with it lol. I can't tell you how disappointed I was with that first pic, I had already lost so much weight and my body still didn't look how I wanted. That's when I started to realize the number on the scale didn't show…

Thank you all maybe it is hormonal my cycle is due to start end of this week. The scale hasn't changed at all so that's good. Will see how this week goes. Hopefully my muscles are loving these extra calories lately.

@xjessicaxrx those were diet and some light cardio, in the first pic I had already lost 30 lbs with diet only and the after was some running and yoga added in. I edited the post with my current pic which is now after lifting and trx. Without these pictures I would've given up because the scale wasn't moving so why bother.

I was stuck at the same weight forever, in both of these pics I weighed the same but there is clearly a difference in my size. I now weigh 3 lbs less than both of those pics

I take magnesium glycinate 400mg daily or stops me from getting muscle spasms in my neck and shoulders. Make sure you're taking a firm that well absorbed. I also soak in epsom salt after workouts that leave me really sore, not sure if it's the hot water or the salts that help but it does. Additionally if I have an area…

Have you taken photos to compare? The scale only shows one measure of change but doesn't always reflect what your body is doing.

If I were you I'd eat more. I started a 6 week boot camp class 3 months ago, during that I followed the one trainers meal plan ended up around 1000-1200 cals a day with some major calorie burns from working out so I was at a major deficit. I lost 8 lbs (4 of which happened the first week, water) and 3% body fat. I then…

If I drink soda I go for cherry coke zero it's perfection! But whatever happened to Dr Pepper 10 that stuff was really good can't find it now.

I so want to try this, the only location in my area that has it is 40 minutes from my house :( I've learned to love black coffee, usually get an iced Americano when I go to sbux but most often just make it at home. I used to always have it sweetened with cream but I don't like drinking calories anymore.

Just eat a very low carb diet, your body will make ketones for free.

It's only been this week that I've had the increased hunger, I don't worry about weight fluctuations in that short a time period so I don't know if I'm eating over maintenance yet. I assume I'm not, at least not over a long stretch of time. I just don't really like feeling so hungry. I used to always feel like that and…

No I'm not anymore. 147 5'6" my goal was 140 but I'm not concerned with that anymore I do however want to get my bf% lower. I went from 29.6% to 24.3% which I'm pleased with but would like it to keep going down. I guess I'm just not used to having a goal like that, and eating more or being so hungry in the past would lead…

First pic is after losing 30 lbs with diet alone and after pic is since working with a trainer lifting weights and trx. I thought when the first picture was taken that I was going to be so happy with how I looked after losing 30 lbs but I didn't realize how much weight I carried in my upper back. I was really disappointed…

Had to sneak in here to steal an old before photo of me for a new comparison, old phone died and can't access the before pics :( so i also decided to bump this thread, seeing everyone's old pics has me wondering where they are at now. i know panda is still crushing it, but doesn't check in as much as before, i'd love to…

They look delicious regardless lol

I bought some cheddar cheese powder and sour cream and onion powder at an Amish market in PA a couple months ago, they are sooooo good. I used them on roasted cauliflower and broccoli.

Can you give us an idea of what kinds of things your talking about? I had a pantry full of rice, potatoes, oats etc. I am not keto but am low carb, though today is a bad example lol. But I like to stay around 100 g of carbs a day and if you are measuring you can easily fit in a serving of rice, pasta, etc, maybe not all…

I think most lchf people are aware of this. Many when they say they don't "count calories" literally mean they don't log/track/count the actual calories because they are naturally satiated by the foods they are eating thus eat less without having to force a deficit, it just happens therefore they don't need to "count…

I hope you like them, I thought they were really good, thinking of ordering some for myself as well

Lolololol so lucky I can only order from their catalog lol

Oh bummer :( I know they sell them at vitamin world, if you have one there. They are a new product so may not be everywhere yet. The taste is much better than the other quest bars, texture is great too.

Good news, the bar didn't cause any gi distress like a lot of the artificial sweetener stuff does. I don't monitor my bg regularly but I might try one again and see how it affects it just out of curiosity.

I was guided here by one of the main forum mods way back when, I want ready at the point then someone from the group found me a few months later, sadly she got banned from the forums a while back :( Funny thing I'm not even very low carb most of the time anymore but this group is like family even if it has changed a ton in…
