Usually 1 small slice of pizza is like 300 calories so I find that incredibly inaccurate. It depends what is on it and how much bread honestly.

My last week was a little messy. "Gained" 3 pounds since switching from Keto to moderate carbs, but not letting that discourage me since I'm still down about 8 pounds since the start of the year! :)

Happy Monday! Week 2 has begun! I have my day all planned out and prelogged in my diary and I'm ready to go! This week I hope to lose at least 2 to 3 pounds - but I'll definitely be happy if I lose more! My calorie goal is 1,650 Carbs = 186 Fat = 64 Protein= 83 Let's do this!

Day 7 and still losing weight off keto, but slower. I know it's been like 2 days. I still eat what some would say is low to moderate carbs. Yesterday I finished at 87 carbs and a little over 1600 calories for the day. How have you guys been doing?
-
I studied 2 books but one was really just recipes. This is the main one I used As of yesterday, I've decided true keto wasn't for me but I'd still like to make more keto meals as a means to help me keep a moderate carb diet.
-
I had eggs, bacon, and toast yesterday cause the keto just wasn't working for me. But I think the habits I gained the last 4 days definitely will. :smiley:

I 'gave up' keto last night. I'm still eating low carbish but trying to do more of the intuitive eating thing. While I wasn't usually hungry on keto, and I enjoyed the lack of cravings, it just wasn't right for me. It also made me super anxious all the time and then I couldn't tell what symptoms were from the keto or the…

I've lost 12 pounds since January 1st and 9 since starting keto. I think I started a little too strict since I wasn't feeling very well yesterday morning, but today I feel great! I do still feel a bit bloated but I think that's just from me being so heavy and having everything kind of droop down now that it's burning off,…
-
That is all very well said. Today I increased my carbs and feel great! I'd like to eventually settle on moderate carbs so that I can get the best variety.

Welcome to the group!

Day Five! I've increased my macros a bit so I'll still be following keto, but more like 30 to 35 carbs per day. I just scientifically can't bring myself to drink salt water as some others have suggested in other threads, but I like the electrolyte drinks. My Atkins shake I drink in the morning does have some, and I've been…

What exactly is the correct manner? I'm focusing on eating healthy and have a calorie deficit.
-
Don't mind the taco bell sauce pacjet on my table from last week lol
-
We had home made burgers, I made homemade fries for my husband but I had cucumber tomato salad and some cottage cheese.
-
I thought that drinking water with salt could potential kill you. It dehydrates you because water in your body will move from areas with less salt to areas with higher salt. Also, the diet already adds so much salt becuase of the meat and dairy. The further I get into this, the more I was to modify to make it more like a…

The more the day goes on I think it was due to me taking supplements on an empty stomach. The rest of the day I've felt pretty good. I really don't want to give up so soon. I figure if I feel like that again tomorrow, I'll come up with a new game plan.
-
My challenge is fitting high fats into low carb. I set my goals to what my hand calculated BMR and TDEE is. I don't purposefully choose low fat food, and I've never really been one to buy into the low fat hype. I'm lactose intolerant, so milk wise I usually choose nut milk, skim or 1% but other than that I usually choose…
-
I know, I'm just hoping that once I transition back, I'll have formed good habits of just choosing healthy foods without thinking too much about it.
-
You go girl!
-
He's 14 months old. I tried it that way for over a year :/ and this really does get rid of my cravings. That's why I don't want to give up just yet
-
Day four started off to a rocky start but now I'm feeling pretty great. I hope everyone else is doing well and feeling good. I wish we had more of a community feel here in this group :/
-
I'm feeling much better, normal and clearer now. Some people have suggested to me that it might have been from taking zinc on an empty stomach. I'd like to continue my keto plan (since it does work to completely get rid of my cravings for me) for at least a month and then transition slowly to eating more balanced again.…

I'm 5 foot 4 and currently 259. Started the year at 268.8. I usually have around 20 to 24 net carbs a day but only like 1200 calories naturally. I just don't know how to get more calories eating low carb.
-
I know. I'm just having lots of trouble with just maintaining a deficit since my baby and an added perk of keto is no cravings. I wanted to try to do it at least a month then slowly add healthy carbs back in until I'm eventually eating healthy out of habit rather than feeling deprived if that makes sense.
-
I finally tried my keto smoothie!!! I got a little crazy with it, so I won't make it often, but it was pretty good! 1 cup Cashew Almond milk = 2 carbs 1 Avocado (Next time, I'll only use 1/2) = 3 net carbs 2 scoops Organic Protein Powder = 2 net carbs 1 tbps (16g) Peanut Butter = 2.5 net carbs 1 packet stevia/erythritol…

Day three! Just woke up and so far I feel pretty good, just tired. I weighed in at 260.4 today so that means I've lost 5 pounds since starting and 8.4 since the new year. Hopefully I can keep this momentum going for a while, especially once I start burning fat. Let's so this!
-
Day Two!!!! I woke up this morning with a headache and feeling achey all over - not sure if it's the keto or from bad sleep. I had a LOT of really strange dreams last night. How do you guys feel today?
-
I had a romaine salad with chipotle garlic baked chicken, grape tomatos, mozzarella cheese, 1/2 an avocado and Jalapeno ranch dressing.
