My mini goal is to be able to not have to walk up and down the stairs one at a time.

Not trying to be dumb, but what do you weigh - meat portions? Do you count calories, too? I have been following keto for a month and although I track macros, I don't weigh and measure and don't count calories.

What is bumping?

I have 80 lbs. to lose as well. I have been eating keto for a month now and it is going well. I eat clean and am usually until 15 or 10 carbs. I know I have lost weight, I just don't know how much. I don't/won't weigh myself because I detest the scale. Some days I think I have lost a lot, other days don't feel like as…

I can't do the scale for that reason. I don't want to. I weighed myself on the day I started but don't foresee me weighing myself any time soon. I detest the scale. It is a total mind eff and so destructive. I can tell how I'm doing by how my clothes fit and how I look. I feel so much better not thinking about how much I…

Screw them; :D you look like you are at a good weight and buff. Are these people overweight?

I agree! I detest the scale and think it is so destructive - at least it is to me. Either you think you're not doing well enough, or you've done so well you can eat something you normally wouldn't/shouldn't. Someone said "the scale is a lyin' liar that lies," and I agree! I weighed myself on the day I started, but I…

Fabulous; good for you!!! I don't weigh myself either. The scale is a total mind effer.

Your transformation is amazing. I got a lot of tips from your post.

Grrlll; good for you! Amazing transformation! You look fabulous and fit! So inspirational. (Your little boy is darling!)

Good for you!!! You look great!

Good for you; I bet you feel great!

My stomach doesn't stick out farther than my breasts.

Geezers definitely rock (I am 60)! Great thread. My goal is to lose 80 lbs. I started 2.5 weeks ago and it is going very well. I am really pleased with keto and feel it has been a deliverance for me from the obsession with food and dieting, plus it works. There is no deprivation and the food is delicious. In addition to…

I would like to lose 80 lbs. I have been on this 2.5 weeks and it is going great. Cravings gone, no problem not eating in between meals, feel great, etc. I have lost a significant amount of weight in my belly. I don't know the numbers because I will not weigh myself. Weighed in on the day I started, but that is it. The…

P.S. You look great already at 193.

Hi, my goal weight is 150, however, I think I look very nice when I get to 180 or below. I don't have any pictures.

P.S. I weighed myself when I started to get a starting weight, but since then I haven't been on the scale and don't intend to for many months. I detest the scale. It is really a horrible thing, and somehow works against you whether you drop weight or gain it. You either think you can afford a little cheat, or you are…

Thanks everyone. Great ideas. I'm so afraid of doing this "wrong" that I am having trouble getting started.

P.S. How do you request/add friends?

80 lbs. and afraid of getting started. Love to hear people's stories and walk the journey together. Please add me. How many calories are you all allowing yourselves per day?

Hi, I'm new, too, and haven't started yet. Still reading through everything and gearing up, I guess, although probably more paralyzed by inaction more than anything. Don't want to be a debbie downer, but I am scared that I'm not going to be able to do this or that I won't be able to stay on it. I'm sure everyone else has…
