Those both sound good.....I was looking for something like A1, but I'll try someing else that's tasty ...... I might just try it w/o steak sauce.....I've gone this long w/o it

No more cankles !!!! I can see a difference between my ankles and calves.....

It takes me about 20lbs to drop a size. I think height and how you carry your weight makes a difference.

I went through the the same symptoms and learned that a lot of electrolytes flushed from the body while following a low carb life style. I found that out by other low carbers. I began taking a potassium supplement, magnesium supplement, and I try to drink a cup of broth a day. It worked, when I miss the broth a few days in…

@professionalHobbyist....... I agree, the closer I get the harder it gets too. I still look for carb count over calories when making food choices, and I eat until I'm full. A couple weeks ago I was hungry all the time, and was nervous about overdoing the calories, but at the end of that week I saw a good loss. So I let my…

I've lost 88.5 lbs since November 2014. I started off following the SAD for the first 3 months then switched to LCHF. I try to exercise 5 times a week for 60 minutes, mixing cardio and strength training.

So far I try to stay under 20g of net carbs, I don't worry as much about calories, I eat until I'm satisfied, then I stop.

I usually just put in it my coffee, but I have cooked with it too. I made coconut shrimp, using unsweetened coconut flakes, and pan fried them in coconut oil. I've also fried chicken in it, using almond flour to coat the chicken. Both came out pretty good.

Hello, I'm Jessica! I stay below 20 gr of net carbs a day. I do my best to stick to high fat, moderate protein and low carb. I followed a low cal diet Nov-Feb, and in Feb decided to go low carb after a plateau. I'm still learning as I go. I'm down 88.5 lbs and counting!! Can't wait to get to 100lbs!! I'm making myself wait…

@glossbones ....lol, I was thinking that, but didn't want to post it.......

@DittoDan ...your welcome! Hope you like them!!!

I drink grey goes vodka with diet sprite. I add sugar free green apple or watermelon packs sometimes for a little extra flavor. I've stayed in ketosis and lost weight while drinking. I do count the calories of the liquor because in e end calories still count (loosely).

@wabmester, thanks for the input, I was just curious .....

I'm able to go a couple sizes down on my lab coat for work, and a lot of my patients are complementing me on my loss.

A++ for effort!!

Same here! I love seasoning salts, probably a little too much before going keto....some of my favs are garlic salt, MSG, miracle blend made in Michigan, kick'n chicken by Weber a few from Grill mates....

Mmm....looks delicious....great gift!

What a noticeable difference in such a short time!!! Great Job!!!!!!! Amazing!!

Thanks.....so far today I haven't been as hungry as I've been the past 2 days, BPC when I first woke up, then bacon and eggs for breakfast....

I'm going to give up liquor for the month of June. I usually have a drink or two on the weekends, but I'm really trying to reach a very important goal, and since drinking slows down burning fat until all the liquor is burned off, I'm thinking giving it up may speed up the progress .

Lol....thanks, I'm going to try to eat to I'm full for a few days, then check the scale to make sure I'm not over doing it.

@sweetteadrinker2 ...... I'm definitely moving, I'm a registered nurse at a dialysis clinic, so I'm going from one end of the unit to the other for about 12 hrs, I get to sit on my break, and at the end of the day when I chart....

My appetite was so under control, I don't know what happened....

Hello!! Feel free to add me:)

@AreteAndWhimsy ....thanks for the info, I'm relieved to her other people loosing weight are experiencing the same issue. I've been trying to ignore the itch, I thought if I scratched I would end up with more stretch marks, but 2 days ago it go so bad I had to give in.....

@jumanajane.... I'm also itchy there too!! Mines are totally deflated:( My upper arms itch as well. @kuranda10, I'm getting all my fat, I over did the fat yesterday, but I drink a BPC every morning to make sure I reach my fat goal.....

Yes!!! They are brutal, with me, I started getting them in my calves, but I've also gotten them in my toes and forearms. Afterwards they are is sore for a while.....nothing like waking up in the middle of the night with your calf muscle locked!!!

Also usually we want to avoid sodium, but with low carb we need to increase our sodium intake due to depletion....I would say google it and you will find a lot of info..... R

I wonder what causes it?
