I don't even weigh myself during this time. I knowI gain six pounds each time, I ignore it and it goes away after a few days.

Firstly the Keto diet is stupid, it's not realistic and nobody can maintain it. Our bodies only use carbs, fats and protein for energy so why deplete an energy source, especially after a baby. You will gain when you go off it. I hope your not nursing and dieting. You just had a baby and no doctor is going to recommend the…

Every week or two

Height weight body frame chart....

Try elliptical machine at gym, and spinning class at local gym.

I take MegaFoods women one daily--it has everything you need

Self control, in fact without it weight loss and healthy lifestyle will never happen. I had this same problem, it's an addiction. I just had to stop, tell myself to stop and I did. It was hard for the first three weeks, but after that it got easier and now I am seven weeks in and don't even think about it. I had to change…

Stop micromanaging him, your going to make the experience suck for him. Let him do his own thing and you do you. Your job should be support, encourage and help, not looking for ways to be right or looking for ways for him to do what you want. We are not here to help you argue your points. I hate HATE HATE when my husband…

That is the default numbers. I changed mine to reflect more protein, less carbs....

Even if it did work you could not maintain it--binge eating leads to more excuses and more binge days. That is just my experience. This was one of my thought processes before I chose to do things the healthy way. I fought myself, bargained with myself over binge days and at the end it was just a stumbling block. You can…

I limit my alcohol to two glasses of wine at the end of the month just one evening and no more. Alcohol is notorious for sabotaging diets and a huge stumbling block for foodies. If drinking is what made you lose control of eating in the first place, avoid it until you get a better handle on your diet.....when binge eating…

I love the idea of an accountability group-im following too

Your body is amazing it is a celebration mark! Most everyone has them

I have lost 16 pounds in seven weeks and I drink two diet pepsi's a day-I do not feel any different and they are my rewards to myself and I can enjoy them guilt free. I do monitor my sodium intake, so if I have met my sodium intake for the day I will skip them, but it isn't very often I do that. I do not find my hunger…

Excellent job!!!! You look great

I don't eat back my extra exercise calories because I'm really over weight and have a lot to lose. I've lost 14 pounds in 6 weeks so far on 1200 calories and light/moderate daily exercise.

Here is exactly how it will go. 1. You will try it and love it because your dropping weight 2. Depending on your will power, you will fight your body over not getting enough calories 3. You give in and just cheat once 4. You see the scale go up by almost 6 pounds get discouraged and binge eat and then you weigh more then…

I lose two pounds every week, I weigh my food. If you aren't losing it's probably because your miscounting how many calories your consuming. I highly suggest weighing food until you get an idea of serving size, not all foods on here are accurate. I would check carbs, if that's all your filling up on your body will retain…

For me breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It sets the tone for the rest of the day. When we sleep, our bodies are working hard at recovering and restoring and the time frame from bed to morning is a bit of a fast, or so I think. Coffee masks our bodies natural signals to tell if we are hungry, it is a natural…

That happens to me too, I drink water and started doing yoga. This may sound silly and I don't know if this is true, but I think learning to be a little hungry is healthy, I journaled my hunger journey and started getting to the bottom of why I was over eating. Now that I am comfortable being hungry I don't binge eat, I…

Yes, if you burn 3200 calories you will lose a pound and so and and so on. Cutting carbs means nothing, you will not lose pounds any faster...our bodies need the right amount of carbs, protein, and lipids for energy....making your body go into a type of starvation mode, robbing it of an energy source is not my cup of tea.…

Restricting your carbs so low can never last to begin with ( just my opinion) Carbs bind with water, so if it was restricted you were likely just losing water to begin with depending on how many total calories you were getting. When you go on to eat normal you gain all the water weight back. That is why I always tell…

I think if you youtube news cast staff pooped herself on live tv, you will get why people tell you to stay away. No joke and she had on white pants. Sadly, she was on live tv. Anyone remember that??

Metabolism is impacted by many things, hormones, thyroid issues, different medical problems and poor nutrition. If you have eaten like crap for many years, I think it greatly impacts your metabolism. Your body is always trying to create balance and adapt. But if nothing else is physically wrong with you, your young enough…

Well, we have our grandparents generation who still go to the gym. I find it is only them who are wearing it. When you are 80+at the gym....hell you deserve to wear whatever you want! Lol I smell more guys body odor then anything or what about the obnoxious lifting dudes trying to impress people by dropping the weights so…

This happened to me too, I am also on a 1200 calorie diet. The scale went up in water weight by 4 pounds, but at the end of the week I still had lost my two pounds I was looking for. It takes a lot of work to gain a pound and takes a lot of work to lose a pound. 1900 calories means nothing if you have been sticking to a…

Stop working out so hard on the work week, make your weekends your work out days. I take a two hour nap every day to catch up on my sleep, but I have a new baby. I make it mandentory to have rest times I think it is just as important as work out times. I found that binged when watching tv, so I cut out tv and would start…

I've been on 1200 calorie and lost ten pounds in 5 weeks. I had to educate myself on healthier fooods, cut out carb snacking and weigh all food until it comes like second nature....I eat in moderation and meal plan out my meals for the day. I include exercise daily. My thoughts are, if I can't master self control then no…

I just posted about this! Great read I am dieting and had two cheat days.....so drinking wTer will help flush out that extra water weight it sounds like, right?

Omg I didn't realize!! I thought eating them back would make me maintain!!! Thanks for the info
