So what exactly is Keto?

I'm new too but I was told the nutrition chart should be about 5% carbs 30% protein and 65% fats. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks everyone!! Very helpful!!!

Thank you!

I do believe that I did forget to add some of the oils and butter that I cooked with yesterday, I will make sure I add them from now on :) I am drinking over 64 oz. of water a day.

Also on low carb, should I be counting calories to make sure that I'm within the 1,200 that I'm allowed for the day?

I have been adding butter, extra virgin olive oil to everything that I cook. Are these the fats I should be having? I think I might have forgotten to add them to the diary. So easily I would have gotten to my 1,200 calorie intake for the day. Everything else OK?

Thank you!

Good advise! Tnx

Also took me 6 months to lose 25 :)

what is zig zag?

I'm 5'7 and have a goal weight of 143.

Thanks, it feels better to have running shoes on, so looks like I'll keep them on even in the house and forget my workout for the day. So discouraging...

I see...so there is nothing they can do for it. I just need to relax on the workouts for awhile.

Can you tell me what they did to help the stress facture?? brace? rest?

Thanks for everyone's advice, I really appreciate it. :ohwell:

I was afraid the the elliptical was the reasoning...I have worked out on a treadmill as well before and never had an issue. Not very happy, it is the only machine I have at home....

Could working out cause a fracture of some kind?? crazy....

The pain is right under my ankle area on the inside (top of foot) if that makes sense. I live in FL and wear flip flops everyday, but this started after I was working out on elliptical. I really hope this isn't serious! For once in my life I have a workout routine and am LOVING it!

I have this same issue. Until recently (looking at a friend's wedding pictures) I didn't realize that I had let myself go. I knew I wasn't 125 lbs like I was, but didn't have a clue what I actually looked like having gained 40 lbs. I have 3 small children and "somehow" those lbs. just kept creeping up on me :) ha! I saw…
