I agree with all the recommendations. Start out not counting calories. Get used to not eating anything with sugar or bad carbs. Just eat meat, dairy and fats. Once you cut out the bad carbs you wont have bad carb cravings as bad. May take awhile but if you fill up on the meats and fats you wont be hungry to eat bad carbs.…

This is almost a year apart. But I've only been losing weight the past 3 months. Not sure if it is that noticeable.

Today I am wearing a pair of jeans my husband bought for me last Christmas. One of those pairs that were the right 'size' but the style was tight. They were too nice to get rid of and I refused to get a bigger size. They fit perfect now. I'm looking forward to fall too so I can see what new clothes I can wear.

So glad you found something that works for you.

Thanks everyone for the input. Breakfast 'beef stew' does sound like a great winter option.

Looks like a fabulous dinner and show. And you look amazing Dan. Show yourself off. Thank you for sharing your trip.

That recipe looks delicious. Thank you

Oh that's awesome. I've never thought of that. Thank you.

This just happened to me last night. It was an accident. I went out to eat and the food I ordered ended up with some breading which I had missed in the description. I also had a Long Island iced tea which I forgot had sweet and sour mix which has sugar. Within a couple hours I had a pounding headache and I went straight to…

I am 5'3 and I am shooting for 145. That is the lowest I have been in many years and I think a healthy weight for me. But it is at the low end of overweight. I am 43 years old and I am not going to hold my breath for 125. I was 25 the last time I saw that weight. But maybe once I hit 145 I will change my mind. That will be…

I completely agree with that. When I changed to this woe I change one meal at a time for a week or two before moving on to the next meal. Same thing with all the other behaviors. Right now I am working on eating when I am hungry and not by the clock. Trying to learn my hunger signals.

You all look great. I'll have to plan for next Tuesday. Lol.

Welcome all. You can add me if you would like. There is a lot of good information in the pinned bullets. It's a good place to start.

Such an amazing time for you. Enjoy your time. You are more daring than me for trying some of that food. Lol. Have fun and be safe.

Why are you trying to drink milk if you don't like it?

I log my food intake then click on the nutrition link to see how many carbs I ate.

This is total weight from my highest. I know it doesn't show on my profile.

This is totally true. It's so crazy to me. Even before this woe I always felt the need for protein in the morning.

Being 43 years old I pretty much feel I will never see 130. Was hoping for 140. But today I would be happy with 150. But hearing that you have made it that low gives me a bit of hope. Keep it up

Not sure if you read Reddit, but I came across a group called Ketogains. And it's all about people on Keto who are building mad muscle. I would recommend checking them out.

OK, now I gotta go look for this stuff.

I am 5'3 and mostly sedentary I try to stay around 1500 also. I know for me I just recently, after 2 months, started to feel not really hungry often. I also think I realize that being a little hungry isn't so bad. I'm not getting the shakes because I need my next carb fix. It's a different kind of hungry than before. It…

I am the same. I kept trying things I would read about and in the end it was not something I would normally eat and wasn't helping with weight loss. So I went back to keeping it simple.

I slowly decreased my carbs and avoided the sickness. Not sure if that would work for you. I cut out carbs one meal at a time. First snacks, then snacks and breakfast, then snacks, breakfast and dinner, etc. I think everyone has to customize a plan that works for them. The two most important things you have to stick to is…

I lost about the same amount in 7-10 days. It has tapered off since. But still about 1 lb a week which is really amazing to me. It took me 6 months prior to lose 5 lbs. I can maintain this woe for the rest of my life. Once I get to my goal I can always incorporate more carbs, but still limit them and I don't think I will…

I have been doing Keto for 2 months now. Still learning. Always learning. Feel free to add me. My diary is open. I am 43 years old and 5'3. Down about 12 lbs so far and still have another 50 to go.

This! And that's just for me. I bought the 3 dozen pack today. Hopefully will make it through the next 7 days. lol.

I try to eat about 30 grams of protein a meal myself to make sure I don't eat too little. I am 5'3 and do not exercise to give you a background.

Drink a lot of water and try taking an antacid like zantac. I found that to help a lot. I read where the cause of hunger even right after eating can be from stomach acid. Even if you don't get heartburn the acid may be low in your stomach. Just make sure that is ok with your doctor and doesn't interact with any other…

@MKEgal This is so cool. Thank you for posting. I have tried to figure out my BMI on other sites and I have never been sure if I was doing it right. Looks like I was doing it way wrong. lol.
