NO BREAD. When I order a sandwich, I just tell them no bread. But if I have to go eat at a fast food place, they don't always "understand" that. So I order the sandwich (or biscuit) and IMMEDIATLEY take it off the bread and throw the bread away so there is no temptation to eat it. If possible, I also substitute any…

That is absolutely amazing!!! Thank you for being an inspiration to us!! So glad that you found happiness within yourself and you had someone to push you and encourage you!

I don't do any of the baking either. I try to keep it simple with meats, veggies, coconut oil and WATER. We had bratwursts last night for supper. I took a raw cabbage leaf and put mustard on it and wrapped it around my bratwurst. It was SO GOOD, no bun needed anymore! :)

This was great! Love the references that you included. YES carbs make me crave more carbs and that gets me nowhere. I have PCOS and it's a never ending cycle. Very depressing. Thank you so much for writing this!!

Starting KETO. Have about 80 pounds (give or take) that I would love to lose. Still trying to learn about this. My doctor wants me to limit my carbs, so that's what I am doing. Feel free to add me :)

Going back to low carbing after not doing anything the past 4 months. Need to get my butt in gear, any support is appreciated! :)

Added the flax and it was great :)

Sounds great!

Sounds really great, thanks!! Do you think the crust would stick together better if you added 2tbsp of ground flax?

I googled health food stores and seriously found one that is 10 minutes away! Thanks again!!

Duh! I haven't even thought to look there. There is one that's probably an hour away, but definitely worth going there to take a look. Thanks!!! :)

Still can't find them at my local grocery store. I live in North Carolina. Does anyone know where I could find them? Would love to try this!

I would love to be 199 by the end of the year :)

I agree, sugar is sugar. I thought it would be ok to eat all the fruit I wanted since it was natural. Boy was I WRONG. Actually made me really sick. I have a sugar problem, so I eat very little fruit. If I do eat any all I stick to blueberries, apples, blackberries, or peaches.

THIS!

Haha

It sounds like you were bored. You have to be a stronger person. If those feelings come again, think about what the end result would be. Would a moment of satisfaction really be worth destroying what you have with someone that you love and loves you back? Just remember that every time that you have a desire for something…

Well definitely have to steal yours!! These are all my faves! lol Along with: bananas beer brisket brussel sprouts bagel bites beef jerky BLT bratwurst brown rice bugles

NC girl here and southern all the way :) Lived in Tennessee for a little over a year (BTW they did NOT have sweet tea at most places), and moved back to NC.

Sounds great! Thanks!

Calories 1179 Carbs 10% (30g) Protein 60% (180g) Fat 30% (40g) I have PCOS also, so it makes it more difficult. But I have found that is is the best approach for me.

Good ideas! bump!

Yes! I am feeling exactly like that. I'm getting so frustrated and stressed over everything. I just went to the doctor on the 10th, and he changed my meds. But it still feels pointless. I have discussed with him going to see a dietician, but just not sure about it. I've noticed that when I do low carb, it helps to lose or…

Holy cow, these recipes sound great! Making me hungry for lunch now. Bump for later. My favorite has always been a hearty vegetable beef (ground turkey) soup.

Thank you for all the advice. I will definitely bring these things up when I'm talking to him. Sometimes I wonder if I've not been completely diagnosed. Like its more than only PCOS that's causing so many problems. Thanks yall for listening and giving encouragement. @abied82 I appreciate the prayers. It means so much.

I'm sure my body does need a "reset". I'm just not sure if its going to be a permanent fix. I've had this happen several times before. One time it was so bad that I became severely anemic and had to have a blood transfusion. (3 units of blood) I definitely am becoming depressed. The weight loss has become more difficult. I…

You look great! How low is your daily Net carbs? I'm trying to do low carb also. Any advice on what has worked the best?

These sound great

I have the same goals too :) Feel free to add me if you want.
