i think CICO is bunk personally. Google it...MFPers like to slam on anyone worrying about what they eat 'it's CICO' 'why are you worrying about that' if it fits your calories eat it.....etc. If you are eating what you are eating and struggling, maybe what you are eating matters too?

went out to scotty's brewhouse yesterday and enjoyed a small bison burger without the bun with blue cheese cajun spices and mustard and mayo. side of steamed broccoli. delicious. I'm on week 3 9 pounds gone out of 25 goal.

you want to post in this group http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/394-low-carber-daily-forum-the-lcd-group

podcasts...keto talk, 2 keto dutes, keto for women... google i your friend. do a keto calculator to determine your macros. change the percentages of carbs proteins and fats under goals. Enjoy.

I'm on week 3 of keto. I do the pee sticks because I read in the beginning they let you know that you are producing ketones but as I get more into it, I'll have to move up to breath or blood. Anyway, I am exhausted at night...like it's 730 and I would love to go to bed. I normally go to bed 1030 or so but it's been…

I've spent 4 years gaining and losing this 20 pounds that appeared on me. I understand. You have to do something that doesn't feel like a diet. You have to satisfy yourself. You have to eat good healthy fats on keto to be satisfied. Log it on something like MFP so you can see what works and what doesn't. I've been hungry a…

i have the script it shows net carbs column and then it shows % net carbs % fat % protein next to each meal totals and daily total. note MFP doesn't care about net carbs and will still show carbs as over if you are over. I just ignore the red if my net are good.

may i suggest a keto diet?

would love more friends too. started keto 8/1/17. determined.

1st weigh in. SW 8/1/17 167 CW 8/9/17 159 Goal Weight 145 [maybe 140 final] will do measurements 9/1/17

I'm on week 2 of keto!! It's an adjustment but I am not craving crap like I normally do on a diet. Feel free to friend me. Diary also open. I tend to eat same things...looking to branch out in the next few weeks and try some recipes...

As s newbie some of these are frightening. I have no desire to do some of this. Yikes. But highly entertaining.

I'm 5'2" and on 1200 calories. It's not much.

this looks good...i think i'll give it a shot this week...mmmm https://www.ketoconnect.net/recipe/best-keto-bread/

darn ezekial is 12 net g fiber... per slice

i personally love ezekial bread and if it will fit with the macros heaven...my fave breakfast is 1 toasted ezekial bread 1/2 avocado and 1 egg fried....i'l have to see the macros on it...maybe that could be a sunday treat or something...

Keto here. Just started. Lunch today lettuce wraps w ground beef shredded cheddar and Lil bit salsa.

I do a boot camp type class weights and cardio mixed. It's great. Also keto diet. Hard but working. Late 40s 22-27 lbs to lose 5'2" Trish

I put 1 calorie in for amount burned. I figure if I have a day when I need to eat more and I've exercised I can change amount burned.

it's been tough but i feel great...day 6...pre planning the day is really helping. thanks so much.

I'm doing .8 I think based on one of the calculators floating around... thanks. I've made it 4 days! woo hoo....

duh that was easy...just click the arrows. thanks again.

thanks. i also discovered the 'database' to look up the macros to figure out on paper too. but planning it out will be easier. awesome.

I was fit in my 30s doing the high protein thing but I've tried and failed multiple times since so thought I'd try to do more fat to feel fuller. Today was really tough as I wasn't full. So I need to tweek my meals better for tomorrow.

thanks for all the great tips from a newbie [day 3]. I made bulletproof coffee on day 1 early afternoon when I normally binge [1 T kerrygold 1 T coconut oil and 1 T heavy cream]...it sustained me until dinner. So now that's my go to afternoon delight. ;O) I appreciate all the salt tips because I feel so weird doing it but…

thank you sunny. i know i have enough fat on my body so i wasn't sure but i wanted to keep hunger at bay? i am drinking a mug of broth right now but didn't enter it. i did enjoy the BPC today...didn't think i'd like it. but it was nice. i'm a little concerned to be so low calorie wise because i don't want body to go into…

Anyone?

i've always been of the thought that calories matter. don't they? today is my day 1 and didn't quite make it to 1200 so I need to tweek a bit tomorrow. don't want body to think it's starving right? good luck.

Great job.

I'm 1200 also but doing the keto diet...I've done 2 calculators and 1 says 1149 and the other 1129 or something. what's up with that? I just put 1200 as my goal. I just put 0 calories for workouts. But I'm on day 1 this time around [ugh...].
