Since I've adopted this WOE and started adding collagen to my morning coffee, I have regrown those toenails. The damaged toenails are back to…

  • In the pinned discussions is a topic called "Start Here - Lowcarb/Keto Launchpad". If you go there, there are links to sites that will let you enhance your MFP to show net carbs. This works for your computer but not so much your phone.

  • Gum. It never occurred to me that sugar free gum could have carbs. I chew it on and off all day while I'm at work because it helps me stay alert and I didn't think I needed to track it because it was sugar free. I am positive it has thrown me off my carb counts big time. Now I log it.

  • One of the things that I love most about LCHF is getting to eat delicious food. SlimFast makes me sad but if it is a tool you would find useful, this journey is yours.
