Congrats!

I love my Alta too! Band is VERY easy to change. I like how small it is yet has great features like screen, call/text preview, silent alarms and reminders. Doesn't have HR or stairs - but I didn't need those. Mine has definitely encouraged me to walk more and park further away from store, etc.

SW: 200 (June 2016) Last weigh in was 2 weeks ago bc I was on vacation last week: 190.2 Today: 187.2 (down 3 in two weeks INCLUDING vacation!!!) GW #1: 150 GW #2: 135???

@LolaDeeDaisy23 What is oat fiber??

I'm surprised by the peanut butter comments. I get more when weighing

I'm going to try the Keto buns. They showed up on my fb newsfeed this morning and I didn't even click on page. They looked so heavy and dense. Glad to hear they are good. I close card on your link and they have rave review!!

Today is taco salad - taco meat on top of bed of cabbage (I like the crunch that cabbage has and the added vitamins), salsa, sour cream. I'm out avocados :-(

Hi! I am 39 too - wow there are a lot of us! I have 4 stair step boys (ages 13, 12, 10, almost 9). I love the outdoors. I am a SAHM. I was always a little "thicker/fluffier" than my friends growing up but not bad a all. I gained more weight after I got married and began working. I was also diagnosed with PCOS. Once I…

That's awesome! Stick to it!!! You can do this!!!

I just read this article this weekend... http://chriskresser.com/when-your-“normal”-blood-sugar-isn’t-normal-part-2/ In it he talks about lc diets. There is also another link within it to a blog called Hyperlipid. Both talk about it. I've noticed a few higher for me FBG but my daytime and post meal numbers are great.…

Google it. There are TONS of recipes. My favorite low carb websites... ruled.me alldayidreamaboutfood peaceloveandlowcarb ditchthecarbs ibreatheimhungry

Cauliflower, broccoli, I've had a taco salad for the past several days for lunch - I started putting my taco meat on a bed of cabbage - it has more fiber than lettuce and more crunch. Drink lots of water. Chia seeds are also good - in smoothies or sprinkled on salad. There are several "bread" and waffle recipes that call…

OK y'all seriously rock!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!

I FORGOT to eat lunch today!!! I thought those skinny b!tches that "claim" to forget to eat were just lying (and they may be), but I am just so dang satisfied with this WOE. It is so nice!!!! I was out running errands and happened to look at the clock and couldn't believe it was 2:00!

I have read the book and agree it is VERY vague. I don't like the constantly eating thing bc that means I'm constantly hungry. If you are wanting to lower your carbs, lower them and replace with fat. It will keep you full longer. I do LCHF but you don't have to go to that extreme - just ease your ratios a little at a time…

I LOVE my Fitbit!!!

yay!!! I love mine! What color did you get?

The fats containers are tiny. I never hit 30% fat.

I would suggest really reading up on keto/LCHF and see if its really something you think you can do. It's not for everyone. Don't do it JUST to lose the weight. If you lose 30# and go right back to eating chips ahoy and little ceasars the weight WILL come back. That's the same for any WOE whether it's CICO, WW, vegan,…

I don't do the meal plan. I tried it last year but I really need something lower carb due to health issues and it is way too low fat to satiate me. But the workouts are good. I can almost always muster up the motivation for 30 minutes. I like the way most moves combine multiple muscle groups so I feel like I pack a lot in…

I like 10c-70f-20p.

Bacon Wrapped Pork Loin Loaded Faux Tatoes (cauliflower) Crispy Roasted broccoli (no matter how much I make - it's never enough) (((Corn muffins for my family)))

I eat all of my Fitbit calories and I'm losing steadily. I feel like MFP's exercise estimates are REALLY high

I like the Mexican places like Chipotle where you can get a bowl - no rice or beans. Steak Big caesar salad with protein (no croutons) Several places we like have bacon wrapped shrimp as an appetizer. I get that as my meal with a side salad.

I'm having trouble to. All of my food is going to Fitbit. MFP saying I have 3k steps. I have 9k steps. Grrrr

I clicked on link and it said no longer available. I searched on FB and saw a recipe that was cooked in crockpot. Is that how you cooked yours?

Change happens when the pain of staying the same exceeds that of making a change.

Nope. I have the alta. It's very small - that's why I love it. Actually it feels weird now when I take it off

I LOVE it!!! I've been using it for a while. There was an option where you could use the new one before it was officially released. LOVE IT!!!

I like them! I use them for PB&J. I love the fathead pizza even more. I'm not crazy about the cream cheese pancakes.
