Nuts flour has carbs. Just not a whole lot.

I don't have a gallbladder. Haven't had one in 10 years. This diet has actually STOPPED the diarrhea. I was told by doctors to stay away from fats, and I did. Had stomach issues the entire 10 years. Go on keto and poof.. gone. Hate the constipation though..

Both, because sometimes our bodies just need more. Other days, not as much. As long as we aim for under maintanence every day and TRY to hit the deficient we prefer, it should all equal out in the end.

Welcome. Nothing wrong with using tools. But lots of people gain it back + some a few years after the surgery because they never learned to control their eating. They used the tool then abused it. Use that opportunity to create good habits instead of trust that it's a permanent fix like some have made the mistake in doing.…

I love all creatures. My sons cat, Nix brought us the brown. He was fine and released with no injuries. And I met the pretty copper head just off my driveway. He was obviously getting his tan on so I snapped some pics and let him be. Texted my sister in law and told her to just keep the kids inside until he left. My…

So far you are doing great. That's a little over 1100 so far. It's a good clean start. For something low calorie to help with hunger at non-meal times, try eggs.. or eggs on salad. One large egg is 72c. Lettuce is.. negligible. 20c In two cups. You can boil three eggs, chop it...add some mustard and a tsp of mayo.. salt…

You have people terrified by technology and want someone to do it for them, confused and cautious about technology and need step by step instructions so they don't mess it up, and those that bravely dive in and are, "Ooohhh! Let's see what this does!" I thought weight loss was starvation. Nothing but salad and water. No…

Don't worry about the day to day mess ups. Look at your whole week. If you have a bad day, try to salvage it over the next couple of days. Find out what your maintanence calories are. Judge off of that. Don't consider having that many calories as a loss. It's your "starting point".. you begin each race at the starting…

Don't punish yourself. People go around in circles because they punish themselves for a slip up. Find out what your maintanence is. 1900? 2100? 2300?.. Now look at a .5lb loss. 1lb loss. 1.5lb loss. And finally the 2lb loss. Count your day a win if you eat just under maintanence with the determination to try harder the…

Food is NOT allowed in my car! Ugh! I hate sticky!

Low carb helps. I'm hypothyroid and it has significantly helped my fatigue and brain fog.

Yeah, edema.. no way you ate THAT much above maintanence! I don't even think that's possible!

True. I'm happy with any loss, and I count no loss but no gain either a stale mate. If I gain, I look for reasons why. Walked 3 miles? Muscles hurt like crazy? Check my diary to be on the safe side.. everything looks good there so has to be inflamed muscles and water weight. I look for reasons to be happy.

Almost every morning. Sometimes it's the only way to ensure I get all my fats in.

I moved from Leadville co, (10k feet) to the east coast to live by the sea. When I was in co I walked EVERYWHERE nearly everyday. I didn't own a car so I would walk miles to shop and push the groceries home in my sons stroller, or walk to the park.. church.. friends homes... doctors.. sons school. When I moved here, the…

Set activity level to sedentary, adjust how much a week you want to lose.. 1lb? 1.5lbs? 2lbs? and just log your exercise. Then only eat back half your calories.. Cause it always overestimates burn. Do you HAVE to eat them back? No. But if you are eating 1000xalories a day and burn 800.. you will eventually get so weak you…

They should really read up on what our ancestors ate before convenience became a thing. Fruit was rare. Fruit has a season. Fruit wasn't easy grab and go from a farmers market.

You'd have to eat the whole container of spice to make it "post" worthy. 100g (the entire Ms. Dash bottle) of basil is only 22 calories. Brown sugar is NOT a spice. It's a sugar. If you are talking sugar, count every serving size. If you are talking SPICE, most are listed as 0-1 calorie per serving. Basil is 1c per…

Keto isn't considered a fad diet. It's a commitment to a lifestyle change. And the minority's of ppl who have tried did see a reduction in hunger. It's just that the majority also considered it too restrictive and quit before reaping real mind changing benefits. It isn't for everyone. It isn't necessary to lose weight.…

Lol. There are people who don't know where there canned foods come from. There are people who can't tell the difference between different species of animals or insects. Had a lady on FB post a pic of a carpet beetle and asked if it was a roach!

I was constantly feeling sick (hypothyroid, no gall bladder, ibs, pretty sure pre-diabetic, and yeast issues, skin issues..) I never heard of keto until my client (I sit pets) told me enthusiastically about it. I was skeptical abdnit still took a week for me say "F it, what can it hurt?".. That and I'm from the "low fat"…

I taught my kids to read and google by 3 and 4 so I never had to answer their parade of dumb questions.

Blinks.. uhh duh? My sil peels everything too :confounded: ... I try to tell her you can eat fruit peels (well, most) and that the vitamins and nutrients are more dense in the peeling, but she wasn't raised that way. I think it's the difference between those who were raised in a more natural environment and confuddled…

Yeah.. me neither. He ate my front porch.. he ate some chairs.. but I kinda like him. He opens the front door himself so I can be lazy when he needs to go out!

Sue him. Tell him you didn't order his services and someone else's scalar imaging of their nutrients went into your body and completely screwed up your carefully plotted out diet.

That's what mine is but he hides when he sees the leash! He wants to walk "independently." Once on it, he's fine. Just groans and whines and "flops" on his side when he thinks he is done. Then I drag him for a bit until he gives up and stands back up.

My brother was telling his wife and me the same thing if we "slipped".. Then he would get mad that we still lost weight even slipping up. I tried to explain deficients and weekly goals and over on breakfast doesn't mean over for dinner and that it's based on calories, not food types. He didn't get it at ALL. Maybe your…

Honey I shrunk the.. macronutrients?

Mini goal 1: Be thrilled if you even SLIGHTLY under maintanence cause that is still weight lost. Mini goal 2: Be thrilled if you are still in a deficient even if you go over your carbs. Baby steps. Mini goal 3: If over deficient, aim for a weekly deficient. Mini goal 4: Save up for Christmas. Mini goal 5: walk the dog.…
