  • That's pretty cool! I have always done the same thing in the past, fill my plate. Today for lunch I had a salad with 1 boneless porkchop that I cut up with a little shredded cheese, olive oil. It was really good, I have to say I was surprised. I'm still feeling a little hungry, but not overly so to where I feel like I need…

  • Hey Kaytlyn! I actually just moved over to Gretna, right outside of New Orleans. I am originally from New Orleans so its good to be back home! I joined my fitness pal about a year ago, and fell off the diet so now I'm back again giving it another go! I work out at planet fitness and I just started the couch to 5k program…

  • Yeah, I pick up my Grammy every Sunday from assisted living and cook Sunday supper for her, but being we live in New Orleans, she loves southern food...which can be tons of carbs.

  • I think that is the only part that confuses me so far. In my mind, although I'm getting rid of a lot of carbs, if its high fat, wouldn't I just gain weight anyway? I adjusted my goals on here to stay at 15g carbs a day. I didn't make it yesterday so today is offically day one of keto!

  • Hi! I just started c25k and I finished week one day 2. New at all this, so it would be great to make some friends doing this to. Feel free to add me if you like, maybe we can keep each other motivated! :)
  • Wow, thank you for that info! I went ahead and adjusted my goals on here like it said and I have some work to do as I'm already -8 carbs just from breakfast and lunch. I'm surprised to see cereal and whole grains on the not list, just because I had always heard in the past that whole grains were good for you and healthy…

  • I just use the free app. I just finished my second day of couch to 5k. The first day was a bit tough, but day two was easier. I also signed up with gympact to keep me motivated. I'm only in week 2 so we shall see!
  • Thanks girls! I'll check that out! :)
