Thanks everyone!! I am not keto (yet) but haven't had any major carbs since January. I'm going to wait and see what we decide. The steak sounds lovely too. Hahah. I love me a big hunk of meat!! Suppose I do decide to have sushi, I should expect a gain on the scale for the next week or so?
-
Thanks!! I keep hearing you can eat too little calories too. So is there some magic deficit or you just need to find what works for you?
-
My only advice is take it one meal at a time. Make the best choice you can :) If you slip up, don't throw away the rest of the day or the week.
-
Thanks everyone. I will have to do a little more research on them. I am under with my calories most days.

<3 this post!

@iamundrcnstruction That was me at the beginning, until I found the group. I was going to post about how excited I was when I started low carb, but then started reading some other low carb threads and never posted. I replied to that crazy thread about joining this group, but that's it. I wont post on the regular boards.…

Oh man that thread is just crazy. I get angry at 2 of the posters in particular (angry to myself, not actually posting) and tell myself I am not looking at it again, then an hour later I am back on there. All I know, is that its working for me right now, I feel amazing and I am gonna keep going!

x3 or whatever its at now. I stopped reading the comments after this post. I have been doing low carb for over a month now and it has made a HUGE difference for me. I am type 2 diabetic and overweight (obvs) and I have lost 10lbs and my seriously uncontrolled blood sugar is almost in the normal zone. I cut out Potatoes,…

@crystalsan726 I am in the same boat as you. New to being Type 2 and new to Low carb. We can learn together!!

WOW! All these are so amazing! Way to go everyone! So inspiring! I was doing and feeling really well, my pants were fitting loser and I actually got into a smaller size after only 2 weeks. But then I decided to go into a store called "Suzy Sheer" and got really depressed. LOL Their XL wouldn't even be wide enough to fit my…

Awesome everyone! Thanks! Not eating breakfast or just having coffee are not options for me as I need to take my diabetic medication with food in the morning, and I need to eat to avoid having a low. Im going to take a peek at the posted recipes! Thanks again!
-
Thanks everyone!! ITCPHOTOG I would love the recipe!!

I am only 2 weeks in from cutting carbs and when I talk to people about it I hear these things constantly "how do you survive?!" - they act like I am totally deprived and miserable. NO! I am eating MORE now than I used to, my energy levels are way up and my blood sugar (I am type 2 diabetic) are finally in the normal zone.…

Thanks! I just got a fresh head today so maybe I will give this a go! Especially because I forgot to look for pork rinds!
-
Thanks for all the info!!!!
-
Hahaha. That's an interesting perk! Still glad I don't have a stash tho! I will look for some! Thanks
-
Thank you GaleHawkins! I am not counting carbs or anything really right now, just not eating the "obvious" ones. Im pretty clueless when it comes to counting carbs. I am kind of relying on MFP food diary to give me an idea of the foods that have more carbs and where I can cut back further. I know, especially because I am…

Ok great! Thank you! So for the jillian michaels I would put in 30 minutes of circuit training?
