  • I am well aware of magnesium I was on it for years! I am someone that really hates taking pills when my number of pills get too high I will stop taking all of them. I know this from looking back into the past :smile: it is what I do every time.i don't do it on purpose. I was anemic so that was a high priority. My iron…
  • I had this for years!! I had custom orthotics for years and wore the contraption to bed and rolled by foot over a frozen waterbottle and suffered for years. I'd been taped every two days for 6 weeks. It flared up bad in 2010 after a half marathon and I went to a new podiatrist and he uses an ultrasound machine and lazer on…
  • I don't have experience but I was feeling g the same way. My goal was to have a routine by the time the pool closed a s I want to do it at home. I was so overwhelmed by all of the routines I started with two exercises this week two days ago. Today I will add one new one and I write it down in a book . I did the same for…

  • I have tried pizza, cake, English muffins and they were all gross. I made pancakes with coconut flour eggs cream and nuts and they were ok but I wouldn't make them again. I have opted for naturally gluten free as I can't find anything g that is gluten and sugar free that is even ok.
  • I put mine into mfp and it seems crazy high I log it and I don't eat my exercise calories...well not on purpose so I don't worry too much.
  • I find coconut flour so grainy we like almond though
  • I had that for two months after cutting out refined sugar and flour and going low carb. I felt so sick and weak and having been pregnant twice it felt just like it but I was t. As soon as I ate my first few bites it went away but was hard to eat cause I felt sick. It eventually went away for me. I found out I was low iron…
  • I weigh most days but not everyday. I do nt feel ruled by it though. I tend to have an up before a down and my overall trend is down at the end of the month so I know that even though the little spike ups happen at the end of the month I'm down. I don't worry about the ups. I weigh and check where I was a month ago and…

  • Lol mine are the icecream sandwiches taste so much better in mice shape. The dvc party has free icecream and chips but I'm not worried I can have one ice cream and be OK ....moderation! Just.cant.go.crazy.!
  • I am dvc also been going for years but never looked at low carb before. I ate my weight in mice shaped foods lol We are doing the dvc party one night and the Halloween another so those two will be great to make my big meal at home before we go. I will look up fuddruckers we usually have a car. I think that's a good plan to…

  • That I could loose 37 pounds and go from sz 20 (tight) jeans to 16 comfortable and people don't notice or comment.

  • Well I had the cake at my dad's birthday but I'm OK with that. Family had burgers and potatoe and Mac salad..my mom's potatoe is my favorite and I had a hamburger salad so totally stayed on plan and I ate no potatoe or Mac salad. I had prepped a bowl of fruit for instead of cake. My mom made poppyseed cake which she hasn't…

  • I'm a total lightweight lol just doing the resistance weights in the pool....but am so sore I found that having a hot Epson salt bath Immediately after the exercise helps so much. When I have it hours later it isn't neerly as effective for me.
  • Good for you for pulling it back and getting back on track. I've been having too many carbs...I logged them. Calories are under but I just feel off tract. I was exhausted last night and had a half kitten exercise session. Today I'm back to it! I think I'm feeling g sluggish from too many carbs. My numbers are about the…

  • I personally am IR so no REFINEF carbs for me so do me it would be a cheat. But I eat fruit and higher carb fruit as a treat if it fits in and don't consider that a treat. But that is me!! For you it is what works for you and if that works yay for you :) if you can have that and stop there good for you!! For me it would…

He has been great I…
