Mine warns me if I end with 1198 calories.

That seems odd. I would go in and manually change the calorie goal. 790 isn't enough..especially not for an active person

Cauliflower crust? I don't eat flour either and have had success with cauliflower. I'll have to try your recipe with just cheese!

Hey, we have about the same goal! I'm shooting for 25lbs down by mid July. Give yourself a 20-25% deficit. Exercise. Eat back about half of those exercise calories. Weigh and measure your food to ensure you are eating what you think you are. Anything too fast isn't good for your body. If you want to see some fast results…

Loss from cutting carbs is loss from water weight (shown by a significant drop in the beginning) and a calorie deficit due to a lower calorie intake by replacing the high carb high calorie foods with lower carb lower calorie options. Barring a medical condition, you don't have to go low carb to lose weight. I'm eating a…

Ketosis breaks down fat to create energy and is muscle sparing. She wouldn't be in ketosis with the amount of carbs/calories she's eating.

You definitely need to seek professional guidance for your problem. :( The way you are eating now isn't good for you. Have you tried fats? Olive oil, hemp oil, butter, coconut oil..are all oils that can be added to vegetables and coconut oil can be added to tea or made into a little chocolate with cocao powder and Stevia…

What?

From a quick glance, I think there are a lot of inaccuracies within your logging. I recommend going to see a dietician. The quality of your diet is lacking..to say the least. You're not eating enough according to what's logged. The types of foods you do eat are not ideal for someone who has PCOS.

Why is someone's personal preference for food insulting? I find talking about people behind their backs to be more insulting.

umm..about a 7 minute drive if i have to sit at the red light. :)

my fitness pal. how old are you?

hahaha. thats what i thought it was too. i like keeping my plated food separated. unless its meant to be blended or soup..it shouldn't touch. i eat very low carb and my significant other and 3 year old do not. i will usually make the same thing for everyone (meat and vegetable) plus an extra higher carb side dish for them.…

...it was?

thats interesting

i don't weigh every day..but i do weigh fairly often. the fluctuations do not bother me..so i don't see it as a problem

huh? im glad you found something that works for you where weight loss is concerned..but your explanation for why it is working is completely wrong. your body isn't going to store fat if you don't eat every two hours. your body will store fat if you eat more calories than you are burning.

i would see a dietician again and have them give you a plan to follow. a few things worth mentioning: -when you do eat carbs it is important to pair them with fats and proteins. -lowering your carb intake is not a magical weight loss trick. for the most part, doing so will result in a deficit you didnt have before (because…

oh..seriously? haha. nothing.

yeah. don't go by that.

are you taking any medication or did you just have a few high blood glucose readings resulting in the pre-diabetic diagnosis? i would ask the doctor who told you you were pre-diabetic for a referral to a dietician. if you are taking medication, don't go low carb unless you are being monitored. you don't need to lower your…

i don't think people are joking around about eating meat because they are selfish and don't care about the environment.. they're probably doing it because its asinine to suggest that eating less meat is going to help with climate change. there are larger contributing factors to be addressed.

no red!! the red number is very disheartening!!! when i was in high school, teachers weren't allowed to use red pens anymore to correct tests and homework. it was too damaging to the children.

ketogenic combined with calorie counting. its the only thing thats worked for me.

coffee in the morning. when I've had three mugs of that i switch to herbal (usually peppermint) tea or water. i sometimes have another mug of coffee at night and add coconut oil or heavy cream, depending on my macros.

the comments after news articles blow my mind...

if you can, i would try to eat beforehand, bring something, or wait. my SO's mother told me last minute that they were having pizza, cake, and ice cream Monday night. I can not eat those things so I had some tuna before we went over, drank water while there, and filled in the rest of my calories after we got home.

I would probably die. So, I'm against it.

I don't know how to flirt. I only know how to joke and be sarcastic. I do have one friend who flirts too much with me. He takes it too far and it makes me uncomfortable. I feel that it's disrespectful to act a certain way around someone who is in a known marriage /relationship.
