I've always said that if I ever find my belly button again is get it pierced! I know it's there, it's just over shadowed by my muffin top! Lol, the day will come!

It's Thirsty Thursday!! What is your favorite go to drink while doing a LC diet? I have two favorites... My BPC well blended! The other is water flavored with a grape sf packet and half a scoop of unflavored Isopure. The latter is like a grape creamsicle! Yummy!! I'm challenging everyone to up their water today! Don't…

I'd love to join a gym but there aren't any close to where I live. I would also have to try to squeeze it into my daily schedule. So for me it's just easier walking around my neighborhood which is convenient since each road is a mile apart! I'm using apps and videos at home too. It's hard when you have your kids all the…

Thanks guys. I'm pushing on and really hoping I can get the same results as those of you with fibro.

Morning everyone! It's Work-Out Wednesday !! Thanks for the birthday wishes! I survived the day and no cake! Actually my day was busy I never had a chance for any treats! So my workouts are generally the same. Walking, yoga, sometimes I throw in something to spice up my week. Today I'm going to add in one that I haven't…

Big Mac salad for me! Leftover burger from last night on bed of lettuce with homemade special sauce!! Yummy!

How awesome is that!?! I added her to Instagram to follow. That truly is inspirational!

Good morning everyone!! It's a Terrific Tuesday! I'm so happy everyone in jumping in on this thread! We are all in the same boat here. We may follow LC slightly differently and have all kinds of reasons for being here but I am overjoyed on how we all are supportive to each other and willing to offer that hand up when we…

Every morning I go out and sit on my steps with my first cup of coffee and enjoy the (not always so quiet) calmness of pre dawn. This morning I couldn't figure o why my butt hurt then I realized it's my bones on the cement! I am finally starting to lose some of that cushion!! Haha!

I didn't do a full yoga session last night. I was suffering with terrible pain in my left hip and my right lower leg was complaining too much! (Some days my body just protests) I did, however, roll out my mat and did some yoga stretches! Child's pose, happy baby (modified one legged kinda), cat and cow, and corpse. I…

Onederland!! That's so awesome to be so close! Make yourself a vision list of before and afters. Things that have improved or are better for where you are now and before you started this WOE. When you get discouraged look at it and add another thing to it. To keep yourself motivated.

Yoga was done last night however I forgot to log it! Grumble, grumble.

It's a Marvelous Monday!! For those of us worker bees the first day of the work week. Let's keep our chat going!! What was your camel straw moment that made you decide to finally lose weight? Who or what is your motivation? My camel straw was knowing my health was deteriorating. This itself should have been my straw but it…

@KetoGirl83 apparently I misread this morning when I saw a response in the thread. My apologies!!

It was for you @KetoGirl83

Catching up.... I'm a country girl! Hate the city. I don't like the crowds, the traffic, the noise.... I could go on! I'm fine to visit or go there for things but I just can ever live there again. I grew up an hour away from Boston. I used to be an avid gamer. LARP, Tabletop, computer... Actually it was Everquest followed…

@Shadowmf023 ha! I love your question!! I'd say an ant. Does that count? Often overlooked and sometimes thought of as a pest (I have a big personality) but I am capable of carrying a heavy load and can do some really amazing things!

@PamamaJane Your home sounds wonderful!! I'd love to have a place like that!! Isn't it amazing how life throws curveballs like that? Glad you found a person to make you happy!! I'm on the fence. I am not ever going to look for a late again. When the time is right they will find me. Nuff said. I friend people who have a…

I lost my post! :'( @kathrout1973 I had written this long post in response and my phone cut out on me! Stress is a huge factor for me to keep in consideration. It's why I like the spoon theory so much. Every day you wake up with so many spoons to use throughout the day. You use them for stressful times or things that take…

@KetoGirl83 do you meal plan ahead of time? Maybe that could help you reach your macros and help you not trigger the yucks from eating high carb foods?

My friends daughter picked up this challenge over a year ago. To watch her transformation has been inspiring to say the least! I'm loving this so far, and find myself looking forward to my sessions!

I didn't know that about sugar alcohols!! So you subtract half the amount?

Can I join in on weekly stats? I need the accountability!!

I'm so early in on the plan I'm doing all I can to prevent the accidental cheats right now. I've been doing research on Keto diets and I happened across one that's cycling your carb levels. Going strict no carbs then slowly upping the amount then dropping back to Zero again. I'm keeping a note on that for later but I know…

I'm still trying to figure out how the macros work. So currently in the process of learning and doing! Lol

Last nights yoga session went great! I even did animal yoga with my class during work. My daughter was watching tv while I did my session. Rolled out my mat put my headphones on so I don't hear extra noise that will distract me. My daughter kept walking around me "mom! What are you doing!" By the time I get to corpse pose…

Things I keep on hand to control snack attacks in the evening: Pork rinds- for a crunchy salty snack (bbq is the only flavor I can tolerate) Sugar free jello- put some heavy cream on top! Yummy! Lc cheesecake- better than ice cream in my opinion

Sleep. My weekends are usually when I get the most. During the week I'm extremely lucky to get 6.
