  • Its weigh day tomorrow and i cannot see myself losing anything. I feel all bloated and fat and i dont know why. Ive not gone over my calories at all and most days been way under. Im dreading tomorrow.
  • you husband does not deserve you. That is a horrible thing to say to the person he loves. Dont let him crush your spirit, you are making a change to better your own health and that is a fantastic thing. You can do whatever you set your mind to. Its about what makes you happy and how you feel about yourself. Beauty is in…
  • Ive just ordered a android tablet and a fitness tracker watch. I think this will help me loads and encourage me to walk more. Going on MFP on my laptop is a hassle at times.
  • @KeriA and @RavenStCloud i hope you manage to keep you and your families safe. Its so worrying now.
  • Thanks for that. I added a coffee with cream this morning and loved it so i feel a bit better by adding that in. Im just not going to worry about getting everything in. It does annoy me though when ive added everything on my food diary for the day and it comes up with the warning that im not eating enough.
  • i turned 40 in october. my start weight last week (i started the week before but too scared to weigh myself) i was 238lb i am now 231lb im only 5ft 4" and i have never been this big in my life, even when 9 months pregnant. This is a new way of life for me and i will have to stick with it for life too. My first goal is to…
  • im at the end of week 2 but wasnt brave enough to get on the scales until last week. Ive lost 6 pounds this week and its the first time in my life (other than my 3 children being born) that im actually proud of myself. I wish i would have weighed myself from the start now. @cherys well done and keep up the good work <3
  • That shows the amazing progress you have made. Well done you!!! I know being large i find it really hard and expensive to buy large size clothes. Im sure if you donated them to a charity shop you would be really helping out others who may be struggling. I spend my life in charity shops looking for something flattering that…
  • Ive just got weighed and im so so happy. Ive lost 6 pounds. I really wish i would have weighed myself the first week i started keto now. It would of been motivating to see the big loss of weight the 1st week even though its mostly water. I had my doubts through the week that the diet would work with me putting so much fat…
  • ive been struggling with the 3 meals a day and started missing breakfast and now im not wanting my lunch either. I was worried about not losing weight because im only eating dinner. After reading this thread i believe its called intermittent fasting. I cant possible fit the about of fat and calories im supposed to have…
  • ive been the hospital today. I had a anterior and posterior repair for prolapses of bladder and bowel last october and they have only just sent for me. I should have had a 6-8 wk check up. Ive gone today knowing the operation wasnt a success with the posterior repair but the surgeon told me not only has that not worked but…
  • ive just ordered a dumbell set that arrives tomorrow. I have not done much exercise yet so any amount will help better than doing none. im just scared of hurting the next day because im in pain most days with fibromyalgia.
  • ive only been on keto a bit longer than a week. Ive never been this big in my whole life (237) even after having my 3 kids i wasnt this big after birth or even 9 months pregnant. My fibromyalgia has had a lot to do with the weight gain because i have not been as active. Plus i have a husband who is a feeder. Whenever he…

  • thanks. I have to weigh tomorrow for the spreadsheet but i know there wont be a change. Next week though i should see a loss.
  • i think everyone struggles at some point. the main thing is you know where you have gone wrong in the past and you know your weaknesses. Thats a great tip about recording things before you eat them. It also gives you time to notice what you are going to eat and maybe change your mind and you may then decide to not eat the…
  • finally been brave enough to weigh myself and added myself to the spreadsheet. This is a fantastic idea and it will work great to keep me accountable. A big thanks to whoever did this.
  • thanks for the warm welcome everyone. Well i took the plunge and got weighed and heres the damage. 17 st 238 lb Im also from the uk and prefer stones and pounds lol..
  • hi ive just joined. i started keto on monday and ive not weighed myself yet. im dreading it. I am very obese and needing to lose this weight. I have a lot of weight to lose so i am in it for the long haul. I will need some encouragement some days and a kick up the backside others. I know im late for this month but by…
  • im with you. Im similar to you. 5ft 4 and morbidly obese but dont feel it. I dont know how to add or anything yet, so if you know how, you can add me. I need a good kick up the backside sometimes lol..
  • im also just starting out. just turned 40 and have fibromyalgia and am morbidly obese too. I am trying the keto diet so will be a different diet than you probably, but i still need motivation and accountability when i feel like giving in. Its hard dieting when you are the only person in the household that is doing it. Good…
  • im trying it for the first time today too. just finding my way round the app and adding todays meals felt great.
