I "dirty fast", I am naturally not a breakfast eater so it is no problem for me to skip it. I do drink an energy drink in the morning, normally a Bang, or I will have coffee with a little half and half. Normally I will eat lunch sometime around 12:30 or 1:00. I do not eat keto, which normally accompanies IF.

I would love some accountability friends! I have about 65 pounds to lose. I definitely do better when I have people holding me accountable and offering support.

Popcorn or a few pretzels and hummus are my go to salty snacks.

A common misconception among most people, even those who do keto, is that its all about the fat, all the bacon, all the eggs, all the butter, but that's not true, at least not for a healthy sustainable way of eating. Non-starchy vegetables should be a big focus of eating keto and should be where your 20 carbs (or however…

@Everyonelies I can't say for certain that keto is helping specific problems, yet. I will say though, that overall I feel better, I have more energy and I don't have the midday slumps I used to.

I follow a "dirty" Keto way of eating, as in I am not a label/ingredients Nazi (I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and it is the way of eating my doctor recommends for me), you will find that most people here are not very supportive of the keto way of eating for weight loss only purposes.

Were your migraines hormone related? While your body is adapting to the keto way of eating, it can cause changes and fluctuations in your hormones. I am not a doctor and if you are concerned check with them, but it sounds like your body is just working on regulating itself. I have experienced something similar when…

I'm mom to a 5 year old, and doing Keto, most of my old MFP friends have quit so feel free to add me!

I try to keep myself below 40 net carbs.

Thanks! Posted starting weight!

True, cyber viruses are probably easier and less messy to cure than the real life kind..

1300...err maybe 1100. That guy up there is probably right.

The parsley, evoo, lemon juice, salt and pepper you could probably mix, it's just a dressing, and even portion out the serving size in advance if you really want. Open the tuna and slice the tomato and mix daily.

As far as calories go, you would figure out the total calories in the amount of milk you are using, then weigh your final product, the difference would be the amount of whey that was removed. A cup of whey, weighs approximately 8.84 ounces and one cup of whey is 59 calories. So you would multiply the difference by 59 and…

I am working through the March calendar from the website. I am liking her so far.

I am 31, and live in Texas. I am hoping to lose 60 pounds total, I am down about 13.

I am planning to start day 1 either tonight or tomorrow night.

I also have PCOS, I have struggled with it since I was 18 (I am 31 now), it took me 7 years of trying with the help of a fertility doctor to get my daughter. I recently met with a nutritionist who advised me to go on a low carb diet. I know that low carb is not for everyone and she did not suggest something as extreme as…

I have pcos and insulin resistance. I stick to 60 or less (normally less) carbs a day per doctor/nutritionist orders.

Good for you. And for the record, I might be inclined to agree that perhaps he was flirting if not for the way he followed up after your reaction. If he was embarrassed, or felt awkward, he would have just walked away or said "nevermind", but the sensitive comment leads me to believe he is just a jerk wad.

I keep my carbs in the 40-60 range. feel free to send me a friends request I have quite a few recipes, haven't tried them all yet.

My daughter is named Emma after a grandmother but we joke that she was really named after Emma Watson since my husband and I are huge Harry Potter fans. We joke (ok, half joke) that if we have son we will name him Thomas after Tom Felton.

We must all face the choice between what is right and what is easy. You're not hungry, you're bored. Drink some water and learn the difference. Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right. Six months from now you will have wish you would have started today. If you're sick of starting over stop quitting.…

Every day, first thing in the morning, but I only log on Fridays gain or loss.

For sure a neti pot, but make sure you use bottled water, you don't want anything eating your brain, you're doing a mud run not a zombie run.

Research has shown that pcos can be hereditary. I really would recommend a lower carb diet, although I don't think the "don't eat carbs" advice is very sound. I would definitely cut out all white breads, pastas, crackers, potatoes, bananas, pineapple, refined sugars, choose whole grains if you are going to have grains lots…

I'm in Bryan/College Station.

I was diagnosed with PCOS 12 years ago. Some recent blood work scared me into taking this losing weight getting healthy thing seriously. I am by no means an expert but I have or am currently dealing with every awful aspect of pcos from infertility, to miscarriage, to being over weight, insulin resistance, etc, etc, etc,…
