http://moneysavinglisa.com/gluten-free-coconut-macaroons/ I am trying to eat gluten free for health reasons, and I am starting to add gluten free recipes on my blog on Fridays. The one above is the first from last Friday. Later today I will add another dessert like recipe. I am going to update the post to add nutrition…

I do love me some cheesecake, but I know I can make it low carb. The hardest would be pizza. I just love pizza and can seriously eat it at any meal.

I've done Atkins in the past, and I do eat LC but it isn't towards a specific plan - but Atkins would be the closest. Also, when I first did Atkins YEARS ago, I didn't have a problem gaining weight back after I went back to a moderate/high carb diet. BUT I also worked out 5 times a week, and still watched my portions. I…

I'm really into Isopure whether it be chocolate or any other flavor. You can stir it with a spin and it dissolves, and has no carbs or sugar at all. I use chocolate and mango peach and they are delicious. They are cheaper on amazon. Here's one you can check out:…

When starting low carb, I always seem to start off with fatigue until a few days getting back into things. However, I do notice that if I work out (even if making myself) it seems to make the fatigue go away faster than without exercise. I don't know why.. I've always assumed maybe the exercise helped push me into ketosis…

I have dated some guys that weren't fit and even really not all attractive but what attracts me to a guy is there personality and humor. Hell I bet you could look like Golem and if you got the personality and humor - I'd date ya.

Thanks for the reply! These are some of the things I'm looking for, and yes I'm def looking for pictures! The more info the better. I have to work on the site, but I'm hoping to have it up and running soon. Name: Age: Location: Starting Weight: Current Weight: Diet Followed: (example: reduced calorie diet, low carb diet,…

What you ever tried this without whey? Or what kind of whey do you use? I wasn't sure if it was just like the protein whey that you used? I was thinking about making this for my boyfriend.

1 cup unsweetened Almond Milk 1 serving frozen strawberries 2 servings Mango/Peach Isopure Whey Protein 1 tbsp flax seed oil 2 tbsp extra virgin coconut oil (for a tropical taste.. very good to add when you're sick!) Put all in the blender and blend. :) This has the added benefit of flax oil and coconut oil. To reduce…

For myself. I'd say 50% vanity reasons, and 50% health. Plus, I'd be a bonus for my BF lol!

Years ago when I lost 30lbs, what worked for me towards the end was keeping carbs under 100 grams a day, fiber at 25 grams and tried not to have much sugar.. BUT I'd typically end my day with a serving of chocolate peanut butter ice cream topped with Fiber One :) The Fiber One made it crunchy which I liked, and slowed down…

A few things got me motivated. 1) I'm at my highest weight ever and dress size 2) I can't fit in any of my clothes 3) All of a sudden I have back pains and heart burn all the time, which are things I never had before 4) Sick of hiding in baggy pjs and hoodies 5) I miss feeling pretty, confident in how I look when I wear…

I'm with ya! My last year in the army, I gained 40lbs within 6 months and then it didn't help that I took the shot and that added another 20lbs!! A total of 60lbs gained in less than 8 months. No here I am with no clothes that fit, I feel like crap all the time, and I have problems like back pain and heart burn that I'm…

I haven't lost much weight yet, but I know from past experience losing weight that my bra size went down A LOT. When I started gaining weight, I was a 36B. I'm now almost D but I want to lose the weight! Hard to keep buying bras with weight gain LOL.

I ditto the Pure Protein bars! Low sugar and low in carbs. A perfect combo for me!

There could be a ton of reasons why, but it sounds like muscle gain. My body does the same thing.. lose for a few weeks, and then gain. But that's only if I workout as well. I can't complain though, I always end up losing a TON of inches before a new WHOOSH of weight loss happens. When I get stuck like that, I try a few…

Years ago, low carb had helped me wittle down to about 130lbs from 160lbs. I had switched to a higher carb diet after, not for any reason other than I was a teenager and I was able to obtain after the loss. Have you tried JUDDD? It's not low carb, but you could alternate your carbs also. Should be enough to bump up your…

thanks!

Thanks! I actually heard of someone while I was fulltime getting kicked home right at the MOB station, which is where they go before they leave country, because of his bodyfat.

I'm eating low carb, but I just joined. I highly recommend researching into coconut oil, and even reading books by Dr. Mercola or Gary Taubes. You can google them also. I would even suggest reading Wheat Belly. I'm a big fan of nutrition, and believe a lot of the hoopla out there is based on flawed or old science. My…
