((((((Hugs)))))))) I feel your pain! I’m the same way. Just get back up again my dear. Just as we train our bodies to crave bad foods, we have to train our bodies to crave healthy foods. Look for healthier snacks (wfpb) to stock up at home. You might have to make them too. Then when you have the munchies, grab something…

Don’t be discouraged friend. We may fall down but we get back up again. Yesterday is gone, so just make today great! The reason for my yoyoing in the past is because when I would fall off the wagon (lol) I’d say oh well I messed up, I’ll quit. It’s a vicious cycle. Now when I fall off, I dust myself off, give myself a hug,…

Welcome to our newest! How is everyone doing? For me, 17lbs gone, 103 still to lose. Doing Keto and IF seems to be working but if I could be consistent with exercising I’d be losing more. I work multiple jobs as a single mom and I’m exhausted before and after work. I can’t wait until it warms up and I’ll walk to work. I…

Welcome! I was thinking the same thing. I use my cell as well and I get lost in some of the forums... lol

Oh yes!!!!! Let’s do it!!!! Someone share how they are doing.... I started new discussions on what I’m going through but briefly I went out of ketosis a few times and got discouraged.... but I’m back at it.... I’m scared to weigh myself tomorrow but I will get it done and make a plan based on if I gained or lost.... what…

@lmcgetrick man I wish I could give you a hug irl!!! You are amazing! Do you know that?? Thank you for your transparency and for sharing your story. You can and you will get to a healthy weight. Slow and steady wins the race. Set backs are only set ups for something greater. Start anew each day, not thinking about…

Thanks so much for your response.... I guess I felt guilty because those items are a no no on keto.... I just get nervous because I gain SO easily... if I just smell a slice of pizza I gain 4 pounds.... lol! I’m going from being a carb junkie to restricting my diet to 50 grams of carbs a day. Over two days my carb intake…

Thank you so much!!!!! I will do that.... I have not been doing too well on the exercising so I’m trying to be super strict on my diet..... I get down if I slip up.... at least if I’m exercising I’m burning calories but since I’m not because of my multiple jobs and being a single mom, the little time I do have goes to my…

Is it possible your plan is too restrictive? The foods you listed, in the quantities you listed, over the course of a few days, isn’t what I would call a binge, not in the clinical definition of Binge Eating Disorder. It sounds like what happens when a person has made big adjustments to the foods they are eating in an…

Omg! Thank you for sharing because we are living parallel lives! I work so hard then destroy it all by moments of weakness..... 160 is my goal weight too!!!! Oh I’m so happy for you that you broke that cycle and lost the weight!!! I’m so proud of you... you’ve inspired me!!!

Let’s post the recipes so some of us can recreate some of these delicious dishes!!!

Thank you!!!

Wow. I feel like I’m in a foreign land. 95% of my diet was carbs for so long. I don’t understand life with out them. They are in everything around me. I need help. I started keto 1/7/19 and have lost 13lbs so far but I’ve fallen off the wagon a few times. I refuse to quit but this is so hard for me. Someone please help....

Nice strategy.... I need to get there... I have a 10 year old that I don’t want to deprive... lol... that’s my story and I’m sticking to it... 😂😭😂😭

Awesome!!!!! You’re well on your way!!!

The only way to hit your goal is if you start!!! Good for you!! Welcome!

Wow awesome!!!!

Yes!!!!! Go for it!!!

what foods are you eating thats a nono on diets? there are no foods that are a no no unless you get gimmicky diets. and 50 lbs by the end of march is way too fast of weight loss which is unhealthy. Thats about 52 days from now you cannot lose almost a lb per day safely which is what would be needed to lose 50 by march…

[/quote] to lose weight you HAVE to be in a calorie deficit ,its how weight loss works for EVERY way of eating including keto. and if you use MFP to calculate what you need to eat to loses weight the deficit is included.so yes you are in a deficit.[/quote] Ok thanks for all this useful information!

I will be 45 in March too!!! It’s impossible for me to hit my total weight loss goal of 120 lbs by then (I just started my journey 1/7/19) but I’m shooting for at least 50lbs gone by my birthday (3/11)! Let’s do this!!!!

That’s awesome!! What are your weight loss goals if any?

I’m actually not on a calorie deficit. I’m using the default caloric intake based on my weight (1700) but I do find it challenging to get all those calories in due to the intermittent fasting.... but I don’t feel hungry or weak.... I feel fantastic!!! And yes I do take in a lot of water and my hair skin and nails are…

I’m doing intermittent fasting and keto! It’s so awesome! I’m not hungry and I can eat things that are usually a no no on diets... lol my actual weigh in is today I will post any more weight loss.... let’s do this!!!! At least 50lbs will be gone by my birthday (3/11)!!!!

I’m down 13+ pounds!!!!!! Asrsrgebsusgsvshshsh (that’s me screaming) Yes Lord!!!! I want 50 pounds gone by my birthday (3/11) when I turn 45..... say bye bye fat!!!!

Well I’m down 13+ pounds since Jan 7th!!!! So everyone who says we can’t do let our results speak for themselves... ha!

Good morning my beautiful fat fighters and health grabbers! I’m down 13+ pounds since Jan 7th!!!! My goal of losing 50lbs by my birthday (3/11) is looking more and more a reality.... I wasn’t supposed to weigh myself today, but just had the urge to since I’ve been doing so well with my eating plan! Please share some of…
