No longer on a keto diet, but still welcoming friend requests

Thanks guys. I'll keep you posted. The only benifit of being sick is that I'm losing weight haha. I've basically tuenued into intermittent fasting with an ensure during the day and then nothing until dinner at night and again repeat. And I have to premedicate for dinner which doesn't always work and it's a small meal, so…

And Dasher you were right last week was week four, my mistake, this week is week five.

To my group, you guys are wonderful. I unfortunately have to stop dieting right now with my health but would love for you guys to continue if you want and if someone would like to step up to keep things orderly that is fine with me. I happily will check in to see the great progress you all do and know if you set your mind…

Thanks for the support I'll look into other shakes although so far the others I've tried as you said don't taste good at all. And thanks for the recipe. Also, reminder for everyone today is Friday so it's the day to enter weekly log ins. At this point I should not have to fill the excel sheet for you, you should know the…

Alright my turn to need a little support. As you all know I was in the hospital the other week. I've been having problems eating which has led to the dreaded ensures. I forgot how many carbs they have. I only need one a day to help supplement or a smoothie that my dad would make, which would have just as many carbs, but…

I closed membership last week but if the group does not mind I am okay with letting you in if you can scroll up a little and find the excel link that allows you to join for the weekly log ins (we log and use excel for various things so that the thread can be used for conversation and our weekly log ins Wong get lost). Then…

That is so sweet of you and best of luck with your procedure!

Congrats guys we officially have our group! Entry is now closed! Just by the conversation here (which is what I would love to keep the forum for and why I created the excel sheet so our entries don't get lost in conversation) it seems like we are off to a great start of getting to know each other and share ideas. I really…

carbs will be different for different people so good question. I'll clarify it on sheet but to be safe let's count it how you track and in parentheses put it the other way as well. However it will go in the number for how you track. As for the pizzas, I don't know those, but being gluten free, I've tried all sorts. I…

Congrats for getting in the final day. Make sure you are on the excel sheet. If you need help making a spot for you just send me a pm and I'll set you up your own spot for tracking :smile: Welcome and I hope you enjoy our little (although grown so not so little a anymore) group! We track every Friday and the goal is to be…

I think at this point all who have committed have found there way to the excel sheet, but if you have not, this is the last chance. The last link I gave was accidentally a view only link. This link will allow you to edit as well. _______________________LINK BELOW_______________________…

In the meantime I added a food section. It should be self explanatory but you can start adding foods that a zero calories, 1-5, and 6-10 so we have some good low carb ideas, and there is a code to put at the end of it if it is a snack, breakfast, lunch, dinner, or if it's multiple meals, you can put all the letters that…

At this point I have accepted the request to everyone who has emailed me. I am extending through the weekend since a couple people seemed to have trouble. You have two ways to get it. By tomorrow morning send me an acceptable email here and I will add it and if that does not work I will send a link which should allow for…

I love doing wings, the perfect Keto meal with some blue cheese and I love a little spice :)

Great question. I used to love a glass of wine but then stopped for two reasons. One was meds and the other is unless it's a meal I don't drink calories because then I feel guilty eating too, as if I'm having too much so it's one or other for me. But that is my personal take and probably a little messed up lol

Also if it's an email thats compatible with Google documents that would help as the excel sheet is in Google docs, thank you.

You were not ignored, a couple messages did not go through for some reason. Can you try messaging it again. Don't worry that it's Friday, you are still in the group. That message was for people not taking any action. Glad to have you!

All who have asked for permission to the excel should have it as this point. @jbandsb2 I still am trying to get a message from you here on mfp but don't see one so not sure what's happening. If you click the link that lets you just edit there is an option on top to ask to make edits on excel so you can try that too,…

If you have access to the spread sheet please put this up there on Friday (unless it's Friday for you) as Friday is check-in day. Otherwise this week is the last one to either pm me an email and I'll grant you access, or else go to the view only link I sent and from there request access. Those without access and posting to…

I just accepted your friend request. Missed that was there. That may have somehow been the problem. Do you mind sending it once more now that we are friends? Otherwise I'll give you step by step excel

@cindy4557 Not too late if you can make tomorrow's weigh in. We had a rough start so just getting in the grove and the challenge or more "support and motivation" as I like to see it, goes until the end of December so plenty of time left. I just need an email from you which you can pm to me so that I can grant you access to…

I think you should have access. It gave me a message saying there is no google drive associated with hotmail so you will have access once you sign in, not sure what that means. Any difficulties let me know, otherwise you are set for tomorrow's entry! Best of luck and can't wait to start working more with you :) Also sorry…

Strange, I don't see your message anywhere. Can you either send it again or ask through excel for permission to edit? Thanks and sorry it never went through!

Hey guys! So here is the deal :) I'm out of the hospital and am going to update the spreadsheet tomorrow! Sadly half of you still have not provided me an email so that you could edit the excel yourself and input your data as well as share to the other categories. With things being crazy I have been extremely lenient in…

We welcome unique diets and schedules so don't ever worry about feeling different in this group based on your hours :)

Late response but I took hour advice and ifs working. I no longer eat ice cream, rather bought molds to make my own out of plain Greek yogurt mixed with stevia and various healthy and good for me ingredients to keep it from getting boring. I learned the things I really crave it's best not to remove them completely, rather…

Best of luck with your reset. Hopefully you didn't go crazy over and it shouldn't be too hard. I have found if I stay met 75 of lower it is easier to reset to reset to 50 or lower and o think next week I am switching to 40 net carbs as 50, even with meds is easy to reaxh/,once I'm ar school Half the week it helps too…

Very impressive that you net 20, I am in awe of you lol. Once again welcome to the group and I hope you find what you are looking for. We are all here to support each other and make each other laugh or lend a shoulder plus add advice although never medical as I don't believe unless you are a doctor or a nutritionist you…

I will need you to send me an email address of yours so I can grant you access to edit and all should work. It unfortunately will have to wait until I am out of the hospital but you can post here this week and I will take care of it and next week we will have it set in place for everyone. I apologize to all for the bumpy…
