There are a few great threads here with success stories - I am trying to find some and bump for you. Low carb has improved the lives & health of so many people here! They are amazing.

Sounds very yummy!

Coffee with HWC is my breakfast every day. If you're not a coffee drinker, I hear it's good with tea too. And then you have something to sip on on the way to work!
-
Thanks again for the ideas everyone - I think I'll be prepared now :smile: I hadn't heard of coconut manna/butter. I'll have to keep an eye out for it!
-
Ahhh, we are not stopping for lunch & dinner, so those are going into the cooler too (eggs, olives, etc.). Cream cheese rolled up in salami sounds like an excellent addition! Those do look amazing. I think I'll add them to the list! Thanks so much! I think I need to tighten up on my carbs in the next few days to squash…
-
Ha, well, if such a thing does not exist, that's okay. I do IF too, but for the past few days, I've been crazy hungry. I don't know why. I'm just worried that might happen in the car (11-12 hr trip). Eggs & olives are already on the list - although I was worried that eggs without the extra fat of butter would make me…
-
This is one of my goals - I think someone else mentioned it elsewhere. Once I get to goal weight, when eating with other people, to very obviously add fat to things. Small pleasures!
-
Great job! Inspiring photos!
-
Great job!!!!
-
This is cracking me up so very much!!! :D
-
Ha - I never realized that! Probably because at this point I have to buy my bras online or in a specialty shop (38GG). My dream is to buy a bra that comes in more colors than black, white, and nude! :smile:

Why wouldn't you? :#

This was AMAZING. Fathead pizza crust with spinach/artichoke dip topping (plus some shrimp that I added because I love them. And I'm noticing a pizza trend in this thread! :yum:
-
That is amazing! Thank you for sharing these. You've worked so hard - it's so inspirational!
-
Blue cheese stuffed olives are amazing! (If you like blue cheese) I was not an olive person until this WOE, but now I love them. Happy little salty fat bombs!
-
Huh, so I had to Google "Petchiae" to know what you were talking about - and it turns out I have them too! I've just been noticing them in increasing numbers within the last few weeks, and I've been keto since February. I thought they were just a "getting old" thing :smile: . I guess if they are my only negative side…
-
HWC = Heavy Whipping Cream - it is amazing in coffee :smile: Can you tell your mom a white lie, if you don't want to tell her about LCHF? (Something I totally understand - it has taken me a long time to get over what people think about how I'm eating). You could tell her your stomach has been upset and you are trying some…
-
From the cartoony picture, it kind of looks like this: I put that on facebook a couple of years ago after a mystifying nature walk and found out it was a "hedge apple", "horse apple," or "osage orange."
-
Ha! I wasn't thinking of hiding the drinking at all. More pulling the super cool flask out and mixing your own drink (and also offering to share). Good luck with whatever you decide!
-
Can you be that guy with a small flask? There will probably be Diet Coke already there, I'd imagine.
-
I save bacon grease in the fridge for cooking oil, but I hadn't thought of doing that with other fats - although I guess I never accumulate a ton of others while cooking. So much bacon grease though! :smile:
-
Congratulations!!
-
Wooooo's for you both!!!
-
Thanks @wabmester! For now my goal is fat loss, but I'd rather not sacrifice the muscle I do have because of stupid mistakes :smile: . What I gleaned from reading that link was that as long as I eat enough protein, I maybe don't need to worry about timing? I hope so! I suppose I can also experiment on myself and see how I…
-
I first did LCHF when I was 16 (21 years ago - gasp!). I had amazing results and felt great, but of course I listened to all of those people who said it was way too unhealthy to eat that way my entire life. How I wish I'd been armed with the information I have now!! Does she like to read? I'd suggest Taubes "Why We Get…
-
Oh my goodness - that used to happen to me too! I was always so relieved to wake up and find out I didn't eat it. :lol:
