OMG!!!! My start stats are nearly identical to yours. My jaw dropped! I have had this nagging in my head that I need to do more strength training and then I read all 22 pages of your story! WOW!!!! What an inspiration!!!

You've gotten great advice! A couple of other things to throw in there. I need to CHEW. BP Coffee and various shakes just don't stay with me very long. Even soups made with cheese and cream. I know many swear by BP Coffee but it doesn't work well for me. I fill fuller when I eat and chew my calories rather than drink them.…

You could be same weight but have a higher percentage of fat as compared to last yesr

I love mine. It has really encouraged me to do more movement throughout the day not just my "exercise time". I park further away from grocery store. I take my dog for more walks. I will go outside and pull a few weeds or pick up a few sticks.

Valerie - I am IR and PCOS too. I also have Hypothyroid thrown in for extra fun. :-) I'm in a similar boat. I feel like I'm in the minority here, but I have no desire to do 20g/day Keto. I don't think that is sustainable FOR ME. I've been doing anywhere from 30-60 carbs per day but don't panic if I'm up to 75 occasionally…

SW: 200 (June) Last week: 192.6 CW: 190.2 (can't wait to kiss the 190's goodbye!!) GW #1: 150 GW #2: 135??? At first I was a little deflated reading this thread realizing I'm losing slower than most others. But I stopped myself. I am real proud of myself. I'm really happy with my new WOE. I failed so many times losing…

Almost every day. It motivates me! I usually only record my weight every few days

No, I'm not a psychopath. :-)

I finally had to block a FB friend who sells Plexus who goes on and on about how its changed her life when IRL all she does is complain about her allergies and insomnia and a myriad of other health problems.

I love mine! I have the Fitbit Alta which is by far the best looking Fitbit out there. I adore it. I have drastically increased not only my "exercise " but my overall daily movement. I really think it's that movement throughout the day that helps every aspect of my life - weight, mood, sleep, productivity, etc

Yum!!! I'm trying the cereal soon!!!!

Most low carb people do carbs - fiber to get net carbs. There is a LCHF group... http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/394-low-carber-daily-forum-the-lcd-group

@FIT_Goat That is AMAZING!!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to share! That would be an answer to prayer. My husband's started as a child and they MAJORLY impact his (and our!) day to day life. I know Keto helps epileptics and migraines and epilepsy have strong relationship. The anti-seisure meds my husband tried…

That's AWESOME!!!!

I have the Fitbit Alta (the newest one). It was underestimating my distance so I increased my stride length and now it is quite accurate. I think for me the calories are quite accurate. I am losing steadily while sometimes eating a lot but staying in calorie range. I think the best thing for me it has encouraged me to…

I remember I tried Primal/Paleo a while back and this was the biggest thing I missed. I could live without the pasta and toast. It was being able to swing through Little Caesar's and voila my family was fed and happy for $10. It was sticking a Stouffer's lasagna in the oven and it being ready when we got in from the ball…

I am pro LCHF but in this instance... my knee-jerk reaction is to say no. LCHF is a restrictive diet by its nature. I would be worried about putting someone who has an eating disorder on a diet with strict guidelines. That's just my honest, gut feeling.
-
Somewhat off topic but I made the Fathead Pizza yesterday - it was SO FREAKING GOOD!!!! Now I KNOW I can stick with this WOE. Just wanted to throw that out there if there are any lurkers.
-
There have been plenty of studies indicating that cholesterol and dietary fat do not negatively impact heart health. our father may have been eating fatty meats but I bet he was also eating at least a piece of toast or pizza crust or a hamburger bun. High fat - high carb IS a recipe for heart disease. I think you will be…

That is awesome!!! I'm hoping my weight loss will also encourage him. He's loving the food I'm cooking for dinner. He will need to change his lunch and snacks.

I also finally tried to Cloud Bread and it lived up to the hype! There are a million variations but this is the one I followed... http://www.food.com/recipe/carb-free-cloud-bread-411501

Lite Salt tastes just like regular salt but it is half sodium and half potassium. Previous poster is right that potassium pills are a drop in the bucket if you are truly deficient.
-
Funny! I just made these for first time today too. It was OK. I accidentally put too much salt in mine and it tasted way too salty. I look forward to trying different variations of this recipe.

Chicken in a Lemon Cream Sauce; Broccoli roasted with EVOO. I might have even licked the plate.

LOVE my Alta!!! It has really motivated me to add more "lifestyle" exercise/steps to my life and those are habits that I can use FOREVER!

I just logged the 1/2 a TEASPOON of honey I used. 9 carbs!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
