I log over on cronometer, which gives a more accurate breakdown of micros. Today I'm at 3530mg, which is 136% of the RDA of potassium, for my stats, (and I still have some extra calories to play with, so this number may go up). I can give you a breakdown of what I'm eating today, if you're interested. But, lots of veggies,…

This.

I drink 3-4 cups a day and haven't had any issues with it. I add a packet of splenda and then half&half to it.

I second this-my first though when reading the OP was strep. Most Med Centers can check for that (as well as pneumonia), and can give prescriptions/necessary treatment if needed. My family's gone in for both and its cost us under $200 out of pocket with no insurance factored in (we have a high deductible HSA so pay out of…

I've been experimenting with lower carb for a few days and not even getting keto low, (I'm anywhere from 40-75ish net carbs a day), I've been experiencing some pretty intense appetite reduction, to the point where I have to be intentional about making sure I'm eating. The whole things been a bit surreal! So, one may not…

I could have posted almost identical pictures about a week ago, except I called it being bloated. I'm in maintenance and am already a healthy weight/BMI, so it was driving me nuts :p To try and fix it I'm currently experimenting with different foods/carb ratios. This is just for me personally-but by cutting my carbs down…

Weight loss happens when you're at the correct calorie deficit for your weight loss goals, not because of any specific macros ratio. WW works because it's a very low calorie plan, though many people have reported stalled/gained weight on the new WW plan, most likely due to 0 points food list that now has over 200 entries.…

A great success op! I'm down to one can of diet soda a day, at lunch time, and I have a goal to eliminate that yet this year (at the beginning of the year I was drinking 4+ cans a day). I'm saving a lot of money by reducing my intake :)

I normalized prediabetic glucose numbers by losing the excess weight I had (around 50lbs). That alone was enough to correct the issue.

Cronometer is free, it's similar to MFP in that it offers a premium option but net carbs option is part of the free plan. They also have a very detailed breakdown of micros, which is also included in their free plan. For some of us it just makes things a bit easier/saves time to be able to see our net carbs at a glance.

I'd love to join in :) Name: zeejane How long in maintenance: 6 years Goal maintenance range: 130lbs-135lbs Current weight: 134.4lbs Current goal: continuing to research and experiment with a lower carb woe (transitioning from a high carb, mostly plant based diet) Recent success: lost the winter weight gain I was…

Yep, that's what I use when I'm spot checking my net carbs. The only downside is the free option doesn't allow you to break meals up into sections (breakfast, lunch etc).

Hey everyone-I wish MFP had the pause account option like FB has, I needed to take a break from MFP so I had to delete my whole account, sigh. After experimenting with DASH for several months I've decided to go in a different direction. While I've enjoyed this way of eating, I started having some serious bloating issues,…
