Calorie counting is one of the best ways to lose weight. Keto is very restrictive with what you can eat if you do strict keto. You still have to have a calorie amount for the day if doing macros, you need to know the grams amount for each macro. So you may not be checking everything for calories but the calories in total…

I've done Keto and it I not what most expect. The first week you'll lose water but then you need to be in ketosis and stay in it for at least a month or more before you become fat adapted. It's an extremely hard thing to follow if you was wanting to be fat adapted. Reality is much less appealing when you know the truth and…

I thought it was Hormones changing from having 2 pregnancies as they've got much worse after each one. Horrible cravings for either sweet stuff or Fat. I noticed my hormones have got worse this last year since turning 40. My bad joints are now being affected. Thankfully after wonder if it could be Menopause related I found…

Never believe an amount like that if you're using a machine telling you a very different number. If you get a device that has HRM in it you won't have to wonder which is correct. You're more likely to over eat if you add mfps dodgy amount. Make your own exercise in your mfp and put in the time and calories from the machine…

I'm allergic to Gluten. Spirit vinegar causes itching, Modified starches causes burning and swelling and the list goes on and on. You can add me. I did keto for abit and felt much better,I was eating to many things that caused my blood sugars to crash and spike. I haven't had that happen since June now. I'm now doing low…

Only one day won't hurt. The worst that will happen is you'll even out everything and not lose anything this week. Don't weigh yourself till about 4 days time though otherwise you'll see that day on the scale. When you weigh yourself (unless you have a condition like thyroid) you see 2 to 3 days earlier on the scale.

Are you able to exercise. It doesn't have to be anything overly strenuous, just a light walk or something that you like that if you're not already.

Hi you can add me, I seriously need some new people to keep me going on here right now. My newsfeed has become boring recently.

I'm looking for new people too, Mfp has become boring just recently.

I've sent a message. I'm bored with my lack of newsfeed and only diary or days logged from others. I removed several completely inactive people but it looks like I need more new people now.

You need to go to the goal, press on the Macros and it should show you the grams for each macro. I'm doing low carb and was doing Keto so I had to learn how to use the macros on here.

Have you tried Cloud bread, I love it. I made Almond cream cheese pancakes. I know these won't be new to people who's been doing this for a while but I enjoy them. I've made courgette stuffed with fish,olive oil fried mushrooms and cheese. Pesto chicken. I've found endless recipes on Pinterest and some sites with…

I've been doing it just a week and a half now. I'm eating between 20 and 40g carbs and the first thing I noticed was no bloating. I'm always getting bloat after drinking or eating. I haven't had any apart from a bit of female bloat but normally I would look pregnant at this point of the month and this time I don't. I'm…

Definitely. I've had to change the way I do thing to lose weight. In my teens and 20s if I want weight off I just cut back on food and it came off. I had no internet then, just library books for guidance or and way to trace how many calories I used during an exercise. But I didn't need to exercise at that age. But after 2…

The problem is that trying to eat different or less and tracking everything makes you think about food ALL the time so you can go a bit food crazy some times with it on your mind non stop. After so long I see I have calories leftover in the diary and you just find yourself thinking you can eat more because there's calories…

It just helps you poo. I don't believe the bacteria lives to get to gut as I've found the cheap stuff without bacteria works too. It's because it soluble fibre from the apples. I have it in my food and occasionally drink a pint of water with 2tbsp of ACV with a straw. It's never curves my hunger. I find all the things that…

I've removed myself from several challenge threads on here after I went a bit crazy and lost it last weekend. I'm no longer weighing weekly. Just as I feel I want. I just can't do it anymore. It's been the most stressful years and all over stupid weight. I've never had a year where it's been so hard to get weight off. It…

Can you remove me from October please. I need to get away from the scales.
