Why was my photo edited to look like I posted something inappropriate when I did not? I'm wearing a bathing suit! I don't like at all that this implies as if I posted something that goes against Terms of Service. There is nothing sexual or pornographic at all about this photo.

Make sure you're eating ENOUGH. If you're eating very little and working out, you likely don't have enough fuel.

Can't recommend enough that people get a personal trainer! Seriously ladies, lift heavy weights! I promise you will not look like a man! The more muscle you have, the faster your metabolism and because muscle is more compact than fat, you will look leaner even if your weight is a little higher. I started 4 years ago at 133…

There is nothing wrong with cheating every now and again, however I find it best to look at just a cheat meal, vs a whole day or even a weekend. Once you get closer to your goal you can get away with that, but for now too many cheats will just derail all your hard work. You need to decide whether that tray of brownies is…

More than likely it's not. How tall are you and what do you weigh now? While it's very tempting to lose weight by eating barely anything, it's really not healthy in the long run.

The truth is probably somewhere between the 2. Treadmills (and other such machines) are not accurate when determining the amount of calories you actually burned.

Great job! Super cool tats too :D

I will likely still workout on Thanksgiving and maybe do some extra cardio, but other than that I'll just pretend that MFP and food logging doesn't exist that day :wink:

I have zero interest in quitting gaming. It is addictive, I wholeheartedly agree with that, which is likely why I've played WoW since Vanilla (almost 13 years). Finding the time to workout is not my issue at all, I have plenty of time and a flexible work schedule.

Alooohaa! I lived in Hawaii (on O'ahu) for 6 years. Miss it every day.

I know you've gotten lots of great advice, but I wanted to throw my hat in the ring. I just read this article this past week. Check out this girl's progress. She is not bulky and is in the best shape of her life. She looks incredible. http://www.cosmopolitan.com/health-fitness/news/a61925/kelsey-wells-scale-instagram-post/

Still WoW. I love Legion.

I have never eaten low fat though, even before switching to LCHF, fat is not something I ever took into account. I've been eating LCHF for more than a year religiously. They haven't confirmed the presence of gallstones yet, that test is tomorrow. It appears that I am have a gallbladder attack though. I have blood and…

I have been going since March and have lost a total of 16 lbs. Originally I wanted to lose 25 but have started maintenance now instead. I've been maintaining at the same weight (with minor fluctuations) since probably August or September.

I've lost 11 lbs since March. Feels slow but I wasn't overly overweight to begin with. I'd like to lose about 10 more.

You just have to stick to your guns and not give in. Much easier said than done I know. You have to decide "Are you worth it?" The answer is "YES!".

People fail with low carb when they get to their goal weight and go back to eating the way they were before. This is true of almost any "diet". If you're going to change the way you eat, it has to be a permanent solution and become a lifestyle. Incorporate exercise and you're gold :smiley: Personally I love low carb. My…

Wow I obviously need more coffee. I meant to post this in the main forum LOL

I just sent a request too. I'm Elke Hinze.

As long as the ketostix show SOMETHING you know you're still in Ketosis. It's kind of like being pregnant, you either are or you aren't. No such thing as a little bit pregnant you know?

Hey shai74, Sometimes when men have a lot of stressors in their life they just don't feel very sexy or "in the mood". I know it seems ridiculous since society pounds it into our brains that they want it all the time, but it just isn't the case. I completely understand, because I've been there with regards to the…

I do squats as part of my regular lifting routine. So nice for the booty!

I know that with Atkins they recommend adding carbs back slowly, in like 5-10 gram increments until you no longer gain nor lose.

Women who are diagnosed with gestational diabetes are often placed on a low carb diet during pregnancy. As long as you ensure you're getting the proper nutrients (take your prenatals!) you'll be fine :D Congratulations!

I like the Breyer's low carb ice cream. I've had the vanilla and it's pretty good! I've been ordering from Netrition.com and buying Great Low Carb Bread company products. They make excellent buns, bagels and pizza crusts.

It wouldn't work on an external device because the script works by modifying the content in the browser window.

You can find some great products on netrition.com too.

I wouldn't pay attention to her. You know what works for you, so just stick to your guns and keep at it. I personally haven't experienced this but I've seen it happen to friends and to my husband. People just get worried because they don't know the benefit of LC living.
