Great story, thanks for the share. I too have started my keto journey, slowly easing into the low carb high fat way of life, have been tracking using MFP and understand this "new" way of getting control. Unfortunately diagnosed with IBS-c and this is one way hopefully i can help my body process better so i feel better. Any…

one piece of sprouted whole grain toast, 1 tbsp. homemade quacamole topped with a whole egg fried in homemade salsa, serve with 1 litre of lemon water.....slices of banana or strawberry beside it.....can't get enough of this combination...

hey there, my thyroid was checked last year when I has having all those problems, thanks for thinking of that though....actually it was my constant pain that my dr did all those tests and discovered I needed surgery, very thankful for that.... how tall are you? what works for you? do you feel hungry all the time?

thank you so much for the support, again being new to getting my life organized finally I guess i'm impatient.....

actually I asked that question when I first began, she is in university and often uses us as her test projects for her papers about nutrition, I posed my frustrations to her yesterday as well (my rant of help) and she wants me to track for 2 weeks as well to see where the food issues are, again she wants me to focus on…

shocking! thanks for your help, I will keep trucking along....

I know exactly how you feel, keep going, it took this long to put the weight on, won't be easy to get rid of, i'm buying a scale shortly as well, shocking the overages in calories you can't see. my body aches everyday from weight training, my feet hurt from all the walking, this is a good community to work with, they are…

yes correct, I have found out that any more than a few tablespoons of milk adds to the mystery, bloat and gassy forsure, I drink almond milk now and have no issues, I try to stay away from bread unless its sprouted whole grain and loaded with fiber

no I am not saying that, currently I struggle to meet those calories as I don't feel hungry most of the time, didn't mean to be disrespectful to you guys, i'm just trying to figure out how to get results faster.....

because my trainer keeps telling me not to track or step on scale I feel like i'm in the middle being pulled, she says only eat nutrient rich foods eat when your hungry and five meals a day, that's not working, I need to loose more and faster, I don't have any issue working out or eating healthy I just need help getting…

I have moved from 190 after surgery to 181, I want to be at 160

thanks so much :)

thanks for all the posts guys, so if I get this right, I am to weight my food, eat less but don't eat so little I put myself into starvation mode, this is not easy, so should I be hungry all the time then? maybe just water and veggies and protein for a month and see what happens, i'm sorry i'm loosing faith in this…

my DR has never told me to loose weight, its that i'm not comfortable with rolls around midsection and it affects my confidence level, for three years prior to the surgery I dealt with the pain etc, now that is all fixed and I need to get back to myself, at 160lbs I would be back to myself, that is what I strive for. I am…

yes I log it as a snack! lol and yes homemade was the closest I could find in mfp to my own creation

I forgot to mention that I have lost beginning jan 30th chest 42 41.5 waist 36.5 34.75 bbutton 37 3/4 35.75 hips 43.5 42 glutes 44.25 43 3/4 thights 23.5 23 biceps 12.5 11.5

so I need to measure and eat less then?

correct, I use measuring cups to measure, I don't generally eat back calories as weight training isn't really measured in mfp, but the HIIT is, depends on the day, I try and mix it up a bit, I made my diary public...I appreciate your help!!!

Hi there, i'm 5"11 and not small boned, my goal is set for 150, purely for BMI to be at the midpoint of my healthly BMI, purely as a goal, i've been doing MFP for 4 weeks now, and i've lost 5 pds....it seems the weight really takes its time to come off, i started at 181, which was still healthy bmi but certainly heading…
