  • @cwolfman13 ah I gotcha! That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for explaining it. I'm thinking I should add in more carbs than what I have been or just play around with my diet until I find a way that works for me.
  • @shell1005 no need to get sassy. I genuinely didn't know. That's why it was a question. I was simply confused and now I am not. Thank you :smile:
  • After I asked the question I researched and found that because men have more muscle man than us women they lose about 20 more calories than women by doing nothing. If a man was to restrict the same amount of calories and and did the same thing as a woman he would lose more weight.
  • @cwolfman13 do you think it's because you're a male? I only ask this because I've notice the way women and men lose weight are differently. Men require more calories than women right? So wouldn't restricting your carbs do more harm than good solely because you're a man? If that's ignorant of me I'm sorry - I'm genuinely…
  • @nvmomketo wow, very informative. I really appreciated that. I think I have a fear of intaking too much sodium.

  • I've been on Keto for roughly two weeks and I feel like the pounds are melting off. I don't feel hungry as often but like I stated above, I have been getting a lot of headaches and I could literally nap all day. Are you experiencing any of that? Also, do you measure your BF from a scale? I used to use the aria scale for…
  • Wow, I've been extra tired lately and have been experiencing a lot of headaches and migraines. I thought it was just because of the time change but maybe it is because of my strict low carb diet.
  • I get what you mean. For me, I find it interesting to know how each diet affected different people. Some people experience bloating from going Keto where as I haven't. This is meant to be fun, and informative. I by no means want to bash the way someone is reaching their goals! :blush:
  • Awe that's pretty cool! I work at a preschool!
  • Yeah that's true! I by no means want to force my friends to eat like a bunny, or hide delicious foods from me. I guess my frustrations come from the fact that I haven't reached a point in MY journey where I have self control. It's something that I am strongly working on and I'm sure I'll get better with in time. :smile:
  • I would love friends! I'm from Texas!
