i freeze mine overnight in a small tupperware, then move them to the refrigerator (coldest spot in the back) - that way they are SO CREAMY, instead of really hard like from freezer.

yes i do eat meat & cheese, but i also eat very healthy greens & veggies & fruits. this diet has NOT stopped me from eating healthy, in fact, i would dare say that i eat healthier than i did before. instead of a pop-tart, yogurt, cereal and fat-free milk, i now eat meat, eggs, cheese, fruits, veggies, etc. as a sample of…

just my opinion here but if your carb set is that high, you will probably not see good results as compared to going lower. i know it sounds hard, but try raising your fat % and lowering your carb % just a tweak.

try this keto-calculator.ankerl.com

thanks, i will look into that. so transfat from a donuts & corndogs would be the ones to avoid??

[quote/] For me, the "secret" was probably a combination of my doc recommending statins /quote] When you say that your doc recommending you to do statins, did you then research it on Google, find out it was bad and in that search ~ one website led to another and you found out about Low Carb? (forgive me if I missed…

^^ this ^^ growing up, my mother did cook balanced meals, but EVERY MEAL had bread or crackers. TONS of rice and cereal; we would even have cereal & toast for dinner sometimes. and we avoided fat at all costs. it is still very difficult for me to wrap my head around eating fat when it was pounded into me to be "fat free"…

my cholesterol is VERY high (my total is over 400 as well as my triglycerides) my dr put me on statins. i was on them for one week. i thought i was going to have a heart attack one night, my chest & head hurt so bad. i was vomiting literally all night. the next morning, i told my husband, SOMETHING has to change. i can't…

i made the most amazing strawberry cheesecake fat bombs that taste better than any ice cream i've ever had. don't miss sweets at all! :p

thank you so much. you have no idea how much your advice means. i will try to keep it equally spaced. yesterday was a really good day. trying to copy that every day. ha

here are my grams for the days since i started tracking: 99 124 130 150 86 165 I am not diabetic, but very close. My A1C is high. Yes, I have insulin resistant PCOS. I am 5' 7" and weigh 173. I have no clue of my body fat %

^^^ i agree with above. i do NET CARBS as well ^^^

i was terrified, too. my entire life, all i've heard is avoid fats. i am doing <25g/carbs per day and I have lost 5 pounds since Friday. so far, so good on my end. good luck with your loss :)

that sounds good, TFS :)

well, it's not BBQ sauce, but if you like sauces in general, Frank's Red Hot (tastes like buffalo sauce) has zero carbs :)

this reminds me of a fat bomb i made. i entered everything precisely in MFP recipe area. it came up as "0" carbs. i planned to eat 3 one day, entered into MFP, and there was "1" under carb. apparently it's trace carbs, not true zero, and if you eat enough, it will add up. :)

thanks for the link, i just put-in to join as well :)

i used to be an intermittent faster and only ate for 6 consecutive hours per day. during that timeframe, i would eat all 1200 of my calories (or 1400 depending on if i was lifting weights) since then, i have gained a significant amount of weight, and my blood sugar & A1C are through the roof, along with my cholesterol. my…

wow i love the charm bracelet idea. my incentive is that when i lose all my weight (60 lbs) i am going to put on my wedding dress (from 23 years ago) and have wedding portraits made. i never had any "real" professional portraits of just myself in my gown, so this will be an awesome way to be able to pamper myself. day at…

i used to do 18:6 and LOVED It. but i tried again recently (had stopped for a while, long story) and it was very difficult for me. i am now as close to diabetes as i can get without actually being diabetic, so i think my blood sugar levels need to regulate before i can do it again. my goal is to be back to 18:6 by the end…

that sounds great, i will join. i am so bad about drinking soda, and my A1C is high, so i was told to quit. will happily join! hooray! :)
