deep fried twinkies............(salivating)

i do intermittent fasting so i do not eat after dinner at night, and fast all the way until after my work-out the following day (18 hours) - before i work-out, i use BPI sports grape BCAA mixed with water. HTH :smile:

^^ agree we use these same flours, ... we don't even have rice or oats in our house much anymore. when you stop eating carbs, you don't need much sweetener to make things taste sweet :smile:

my daughter & both sons have celiac, so we don't do wheat in our house anyway, but husband and i do LCHF diet, so it's rare for us to have carbs in the house. i honestly don't think it really helps with weight loss unless you are counting calories. (that's how it is for me, anyway...) hope you feel better soon. avoiding…

favorite flavor sugar-free instant pudding mix + 1 cup HWC = whip & freeze for a bit. just like ice cream!

yes, i did a trial run and started-in full force on saturday 22nd. today is day 3 for me. i had 2 g/net carbs on day 1 and 6 g/net carbs yesterday. i am starting with a 12 day fast of <1O g/net carbs/day. you can friend me if you like. :flowerforyou:

i take methyl versions of B vitamins and vitamin D as cholecalciferol

i do 18:6 with only 6 hours of feasting, 12:OO noon - 6:OO p.m.

i weigh every morning and log every morning. some days i'm up, some down. i love using the MFP app to look at the trend calculator, it has a line graph of all my weights since i started and it shows everything.

i did it and i lost some, but i can't remember how much, and i also gained it back. it was VERY hard on my digestive system.

i agree with this. and what i have been doing is every saturday, i drink a coke. i used to drink 1-2 per day, and i miss them, but knowing i can have one every saturday makes the weekdays easier. also set yourself up with a reward. such as, for every 10 lbs, you get a new pair of shoes, or a new lipstick, or a new work-out…

that looks great and is close to home :smile:

think of things that are naturally gluten-free, such as nuts, seeds, rice, corn, fruit, veggies. i picked-up a bag of pre-washed and cut green beans the other day with a huge label on the front "GLUTEN FREE" *smh*

starting day 1 on monday. hubby on board, even though he has no weight to lose and is a hottie :smile: friend me if you like i'm 2DUNNY female from Houston :flowerforyou:

wow did not know this one. TFS!

thank you - just had checked last month and mine is fine, but i am on 5000iU/day supplement. good advice!!

hello all - i am 46, in menopause, hysterectomy 4 years ago. my normal weight is 125, i am 5'7". my last pregnancy was just horrible, i was 42, baby had 2 chromosomal abnormalities and died in utero at 2nd trimester. had a D&E and then hysterectomy. my weight starting creeping up and i went from 125 to 200lbs. i have spent…

bananas are good. so are nuts and seeds. or a pint of ice cream :#

OH, i only saw that he lost 5 lbs. i must have miscalculated or misread. i didn't see 263, i only saw the weights he entered on the dates listed, which is 5 lbs. from 7th to 21st. i wasn't commiserating, i just know how it feels to try really hard and not see the results you want.

this makes alot of sense. thank you.

i am the same way. it's coming off sooooooooooooo slowly this time around. i lost 60 lbs in 2012 and it took right at a year. now i have been at this for a year this time around, and i have only lost 24 lbs in the entire year. it's maddening. keep up the good work. sorry it takes so long. :'(

i was wondering about that. sounds counter-intuitive to add-in calories.

i agree about food scale. i couldn't live without mine. i measure EVERYTHING. i even weigh my milk!!

20 lbs is a great number - i still have over 50 left to go! you can do it!!! my thoughts: i eat between 1200-1400 cal a day depending on my exercise amounts, the more i exercise the more i eat. i go to the gym for weight lifting twice per week. i do a HIIT routine 7 days a week. i do elliptical machine 5 days a week. (i…

i think the only way to freeze fat is to go to the northern-most parts of alaska during winter. pretty sure my fat would freeze there! ;)

i was 200 lbs, and i have lost about 24 so far. it took at least 10 before i could see anything. these past 10, i don't notice a difference at all.

i am the same way. i go to QUA in las vegas once a year. their water tastes MUCH better than mine! ;)

it's funny, when i was really little (back in the 1970's) my church always had baby showers and other functions. there was always some type of punch, but also a big clear jug of water with cucumber, lemon, etc. it's not new, but probably just a swinging trend that came back around. :smile:

i LIKE the sound of that! :p
