hello all- i started low carb/keto before thanksgiving and have been off & on all through the holidays i am 40 year old mother of 4(12, 4, 3, 1) and feel great doing this way of eating my highest weight not pregnant is 206 i am down to my last 20 lbs or so to get to 145- and finding it tough to get back on track since the…

i second that with the scale- i am over what it tells me so i hid it - I FEEL soo much better now then i used to...

*cheers* And the crowd goes wild-... Thank you!!!!!

are you getting unrefined or refined coconut oil i found that the refined doesnt have the flavor of coconut like the unrefined has

WTG !!! cant wait to hear what your numbers are for your blood work

^^^^^ Agreed- i weighed myself before thanksgiving because between carbs & TOM i knew i would go up- finally today i went back below weight beofre thanksgiving LOL KCKO !!! every day every bite-

Congratulations !!!

maybe a recipe stickie for web sites or favorites- ??? just a thought

oh my FABULOUS !!!! keep on eating butter girl- lookin good !!

if we cant get control of this group- i say we have 1 of 2 options 1- stay here or just start a new one & divert all traffic from here to there ?? no pref either way

1/2 cup coconut oil(unrefined gives that nice coconut flavor) 1/4 cup butter( i personally like the salted) 4 tbs nut butter(i use almond butter) 4 tbs cocoa unsweetened 1 pk splenda- more or less to taste i use a 2 cup measuring cup- microwave to melt- stir- pour into molds- & freeze be warned they are good LOLOL

i have only been at this a lil over 2 weeks scale went up this week but did a BF & that was down 3% so dont worry too much about what the number on the scale says {{hugs}}

mmm yummmy

I agree that you need to gain weight in a pregnancy to have healthy baby etc... but that being said i am over weight/obese and have NEVER made an 8 lb baby 5 & 6 lbs always i think my heaviest baby was almost 7 lbs now that being said- they are all perfectly healthy 11 yrs, 3, 2 & 4 mo LOL i have never watched my weight in…

Yea i have used it in past pregnancies as well- GREAT STUFF !!

i had started an 8 week fitness blender work out series that i just finished- i am currently only 7 weeks but this my 5th pregnancy from what i have figured out- i am not going to start anything new- so going to redo this 8 week series from the beginning, and really listen to my body- just dont over do it-

HUMMUS !!!- great with pretzels, cucumbers carrots- anything or just some raw veggies with a set amount of dressing on the side thats what i do during the day -(SAHM) i am a snacker or plan your junk- measure it out and bring it with you

i am waiting as well to go public- i always wait till 2nd trimester * as far as your cramps you are feeling- is there any particular exercise that brings them on- i find certain ones i just dont do because i just dont feel comfy doing them- listen to your body !! *feel free to friend me

yesterday i felt like crap- today not so bad so i got my work out in before the nausea rears its ugly head again i just get soo tired sooo much quicker and easier now- is it just me ??
