  • Hi AnnPT77, Unfortunately this started a few weeks ago (and a few weeks after my doctors visit), so I didn't get a chance to discuss it with them. It is a very odd place since I don't do any core focused exercises necessarily. Though I do some work bent over and moving things (like you mentioned with your friend hurting…
  • If I did, I may have done it without realizing it. I've been doing the normal amount of physical labor at work, but I wonder if I pulled something and I'm just now feeling it. It's very possible. I hope it goes away soon, sometimes it can be pretty painful.
  • Okay, got it about the food portions; I will be more careful about what I input and make sure all my calories are accurate. That could very well be one of my problems.

Most of my packaged food goes into the diary, but I can't account for home-cooked meals as far as complete accuracy but I feel like it's close. And that would make sense that…
  • Thank you for the tips and advice. I'll have to take the supplements to work in order to take them at lunch but that shouldn't be too much of an issue. I haven't noticed any night sweats or hot flashes, just generally barely able to fall asleep and stay asleep. I tried googling side effects of these supplements but…
  • Keto is when you basically reduce your diet to almost no carbs and you avoid sugar (even in fruit). You stick mainly to lean meats and veggies all day, until you're in 'ketosis', which is a fat burning mode. It's difficult, but it works
