@2lisagibbs That sounds delicious...I love Chinese food! I actually just bought some mushrooms for a stir fry I want to try and make this weekend.

Do my fat macros look off? Like what? Sorry that must sound dumb. I do a lot of cooking with coconut oil and butter, but was told to cut down on cheese and nuts by other Keto'ers. So I'm kinda lost. They said that's why I hadn't lost any weight, that I was overconsuming and not realizing it. Which might have been true. I'm…

Yeah, definitely. That's why I bought a bag of pre-boiled, shelled eggs. I know it sounds crazy but I'm awful at anything involving eggs-boiling, scrambling, omelettes, etc. I just wanted something I can grab and go. I also got these mini pickles I totally forgot about that I could probably bring for a snack! I usually do…

Hmm. Maybe I should bump it to a happy medium between 20 and 30, like 25? and see how that works?

I agree, it is. I'm working mega overtime right now (12 days straight at the moment) so I literally have no time to cook. I used to do bulk meals and will start again at the beginning of the next month when I have time. (we had 3 people quit where I work so I had to pick up days, but next month we'll get more so things…

I had it set to 17g because I couldn't find a 20g. That's what the ketocalculator had me put it at. So it says 17, but I always add up to 20. Do you think that's too low, even? I really am curious because I keep getting told to keep it 20g or under. Now I'm wondering. I have a big social event in 6 months and I'm trying to…

no? i don't know? short people

I'm not sure. He said it would check everything--so unless you need a special tests for those, I would assume so. Wasn't aware excess iron could cause that, too. I just hope we find out it's something other than be me being lazy. :/ because that's pretty much what I've been told my entire life.

I'm in the same boat! Bridesmade in October. Looking like a whale. Need to get ready.

Do yourself a favor and invest in a good pair of shoes/non carpeted area. I hurt myself every single time I did her 30 day shred because I was wearing crappy old shoes and on carpet.

Hi, I'm interested! I haven't started logging my food yet but I check in at least twice a day (I'm usually on several times a day/night, though, and easy to reach), so my accountability is pretty good. My goal is 45-50lb, but it may change to 55-60 later on.

I would like to start working out every day..it would probably help me out a lot. Unfortunately I don't have the energy right now. I work nights and just woke up from 4 hours of sleep because I have housework to do today, on my one day off. Sigh. I do know I'm depressed, but between my fiance's meds and mine, we just…

Hiya! 45-50lb to lose, here. Maybe more, if I decide to change my goal later on. What's your approach going to be?

Did you do it healthily? Because even when I was counting calories and doing cardio 2-3 times a day I didn't even lose that much. Just asking.

I will be, in the next couple years. We're planning to start trying 2018-2019. I want to get to my goal weight and maintain until then. I'm so sorry you're having so much trouble. I wish you the best in your life.

Hiya! I'm 4ft9 looking to lose about 40-45lb by August. Similar goals and stats! Let's be friends :D

Tonight we're having keto chciken fried rice ! Turned out great. Not very pretty though

Guten tag and salam alaykom! Great to meet you. I have about 40-50lb to lose, so would love to be friends with you! Also, I lived in Germany for a couple years as a child! Whereabouts are you? :) I'll add you if you want!

Hiya. Popping in because honestly I completely forgot to lol. But I have an update, so yay. I startedbat 184.4 and yesterday I was 180.4 Just got home from work, so I won't weigh in until this afternoon. I wonder if I can be 5-6lb down by January 1st.

I've found that since ditching regular and switching to diet, I can't even finish a 20oz anymore without feeling like "...eh..what's the point? It's not that great." I prefer the 7oz cans, if I even ever drink one anymore.

Not really. For our midnight shift Christmas party, we had a big salad, White Castle, BBQ chicken (passed on that--don't know how much sugar was in the sauce) and pumpkin pie. I brought a hefty omelette in my lunch bag, filled with diced ham, onion and cheese, for later. So for the "Christmas party" I had 2 bunless white…

I couldn't think of anything when I read the title...then I remembered last night at work someone offered to order pizza. I almost said "eh, screw it, it's a holiday" but then I was like WAIT WAIT WAIT. This is why I'm fat. No thanks lol I'll just eat some bunless White Castle burgers.

I've been afraid of becoming diabetic (4'9'' 184lb) so I do have a glucose meter lying around. I actually had it because my dog was diabetic but after she passed I kept it. I used to check fairly often, but not anymore. Never had a doctor warn me I was even close to developing diabetes. On my days off I don't drink much…

You're probably really tired of hearing this...I definitely was...but I've been following low carb/keto for 18? days now, and after the first week and a half I was having 1/3 of the cravings I used to. The first week was the hardest. I LOVE Totino's Party Pizzas, and can eat an entire microwave pizza to myself. It's all I…

I don't have any of those conditions, as far as I know. I mean, I haven't had a check up in a while, but I'm only 26 and it's not like my urine is clear all the time, or dark all the time. I haven't had any red flags pop up so besides my weight, I feel like I'm fairly healthy. You make a good point, though. I'm not going…

Parmesean cheese ! Heard good things about arrowroot but haven't used it

Go pick yourself up some jugs of water. Use those. When they get easy, fill them with sand. Go Strongman style and start flipping tires on your back yard lol. Use your own body weight. Get a kettleball or pick up a set of weights at the store. I dunno lol.

No, was just interested in learning more about it. The starving and alcoholic risk factor was also news to me. We all meet different people in the weight loss world, so it only stands to reason that we'll eventually meet someone with an ED or an alcoholic, and maybe now armed with this knowledge we can help educate them.
