Been Keto/Low Carb since July 2017. NOTHING else worked. Down 52 pounds so far, NEVER hungry and I get to eat a TON of delicous fatty food. Stick with it...it does get easier after you break the addiction to carbs.

I just started the LCHF diet as well but I've been battling for a while to lose weight and have tracked and tried many things. I haven't been as dedicated in the past to posting on here but I'm willing to give this another try so if you want to friend me I'll try to help :-)

Lost another 1.6 pounds! Thanks for the suggestions everyone but especially kirstenb13 I really had to think about this one but when I made the choice to adjust the calorie intake that ended up being exactly what it was. I assumed that anyone taking in around 1200 to 1500 would naturally continually lose weight since that…

When I said I track 95% of everything I eat I didn't mean everyday. I track 100% all day everyday of anything I eat and drink and I track it the moment I eat/drink it so I don't forget. The other 5% is only if I can't find anything comparable to what I have eaten on rare or special occasion (cheat meals, birthdays,…

When everything came to a halt I had reached my halfway point. I'm 5'6", 45 yrs old, started at 202 and am sitting at 175. My goal is 145. Just last week I adjusted from 1200 calories a day to 1100 and I'm trying to stay as close to that as possible without going over. I track 95% of everything I eat, good or bad because…

Starting slow and hope to build back up to where I used to be. Shooting for 30 miles this month so hoping to average a mile a day.

No, I lowered from 1200 to 1100.

UPDATE: I started measuring better instead of eyeballing, dropped my calories 100 a day, quit eating back too many exercise points and finally lost a pound. Thanks for your help and insights and for the reality check. We can see better once the pride glasses are removed from our eyes.

I believe you measured on the "His Diet" side which is correct for my husband. My oatmeal is 1/2 cup, the greens are only one or the other, not both, I do 12 ounces of protein a day (4oz x 3) and only 1/2 cup brown rice OR 4oz red potato twice a day (I swapped my 9am meal for snack of grapefruit instead to help with…

I think a few of those days were when we were out of town and my husband drug me somewhere that I had a hard time finding the correct calories for what I ate BUT I always try to still make lighter choices wherever we go and never just throw my hands up and say, "What the heck!" ;-) I am extremely cautious and try to…

Thank you everyone! I have just lowered by daily calorie goal to 1100 to see if I can get anything different to happen. I do measure and weigh everything but the diet I'm on called for specific measurements, which I do. For example my potato's are red only and I'm allowed 4 ounces but my brown rice is half a cup. Also, my…

I am living this very same thing right now! I just dropped my calories by 100 to 1100 a day and I am going to make an effort to not eat back at least half of my exercise calories burned, possibly none of them. I started at 202 and have lost 26 since September and bounce between 178 and 176. The last 2 pounds are my on…

I wear a misfit on my wrist and it is synced to My Fitness Pal so the numbers it comes up with are between the two of them. The Misfit is similar to the Fitbit in that, I wear it at all times and it tracks my activity and my steps. It will give me points based on certain activity levels. It tracks walking, running,…

I am weighing only the protein. I eat 4oz of protein 3 times a day. I use cups to measure my oatmeal, broccoli, egg whites, etc.

Attached is the basic diet my husband and I started on September 9th. I started at a weight of 202 and I'm down to 194 and he started at 320 and is now 306. It works. I also wear a Misfit Shine that tracks my movement and automatically adds my exercise calories back into my daily allowance. I have accepted that I didn't…
