Wish I could! Thanks for the info.

Thanks. I'll try that one next.

I distinctly remember joining TOPS in my 20s after my first kid. I wore a size 16 pants and weighed 169. Now I'm at 175 and wear a size 12-14. American sizes haves definitely gotten bigger over the years with the numbers staying the same.

Hers a funny NSV I just realized today, probably for the first time ever my drivers license has a higher weight than what I actually weigh. Ten pounds more. 🤣

Started Keto Oct 1 Beginning weight 180.3 Nov 1- 177.1 Sunday 11/04- 175.6. Body fat 43.9% Sunday 11/11- 175.3 Sunday 11/18 Sunday 11/25 Down a little this week. I feel smaller. Clothes are getting too loose. Had to get a ring sizes for my wedding ring.

Hahaha. I'll have to watch out for that! Ive noticed a couple pairs of pants have gotten mysteriously longer in the legs. I guess the dryer has started growing things instead if shrinking them.

I'll give those a try. For my spaghetti sauce, I usually use zucchini zoodles, green beans or cauliflower rice as a base. Spaghetti would be a real treat.

I thought there's very little evidence that cholesterol levels are linked to heart disease (or at least increased mortality rates.)

There are keto cracker recipes on YouTube. Flackers.

Thanks for the tip on pizza crust. I shop at Sprouts but hadn't seen that. I've been considering ordering pizza and just peeling off the cheese and toppings and eating. Lol

I'm looking to buy a ring guard today. Mine hasn't flown off yet but I'm worried that it could.

4 pounds since Monday? That is not slow! Wow.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately I just don't like tea without some kind of creamer and figured I'd rather have real cream than all the artificial ingredients, soybean oil etc in creamers. I didn't get hungry until after I ate lunch (break fast?) at noon. But this only seemed to be a problem the first day I tried…

DrKenDBerry on YouTube has a video on less expensive keto tips. If your main motivation is weight loss, you don't necessarily have to go the super clean route of organic, grass fed etc. Yes, it might be the best option but if you can't afford it, it's better to do a less perfect option than keep eating the standard…

I'm just learning this stuff but I think if your total carbs for the day are good, it should be OK.

Third day of not eating until noon on Saturday and I found I really was satisfied quickly when eating. I lost a couple pounds since starting IF so I'm going to continue probably 6 days a week.

I'll keep experimenting with it. Yesterday didn't eat until noon again. I didn't notice that I was more hungry than usual the rest of the day like I was the first time.

New info to me.

My strategy for Halloween used to be to buy only candy I don't like and wouldn't be tempted to eat (gummies, sour etc.) This year my mom is living with us and she always has a stash of chocolate. So I bought chocolate bars I knew she liked and the leftovers are hers. I was slightly tempted to eat a Kit Kat, but I had some…

I mix things up a bit because I get bored easily but my breakfast is usually eggs and sausage. I cook dinners for husband and my mom. I just adjust my dinner to be KETO. Like last night I made fried fish. I did family's first using wheat flour, then I wiped out the pan and fried my fish using almond flour. They had rolls…

In general, I think easier than normal bruising can be a sign of not enough vitamin K. Dark leafy greens should help.

Second week staying basically the same. Total loss for Oct is 4# and…

I'm leaving tomorrow for a few days away. Taking some keto friendly snacks but I shouldn't have any trouble with restaurant eating. Most places have keto friendly options.

Thanksgiving we are going out to dinner. I've decided if the mashed potatoes or stuffing look really good (doubtful with restaurant versions), I might have a couple bites. If other people have pie, maybe steal a bite. I really don't want to reverse my progress.

The week before I started Keto, I stopped eating sweets and sugar. I didn't have any Keto flu symptoms.

Recipe: mix in greased large mug or small bowl: 1 T oil or melted butter, 1egg, 3T almond flour, 1/2 t. Baking powder. Mix well with fork and microwave 90 seconds. Cut in half for 2 slices bread. (I toasted mine lightly in toaster to brown. )
