Hi Everyone, It’s been a very long time since I posted on here, I think since January. I had a really rough winter getting cold after cold and then hit with a flu in January. I went off my diet during that last flu and have had such a hard time getting back on. I’m approaching my one year (Aug 7) without much in the way of…

https://m.nutritionix.com/kfc/menu/premium/ KFC has nutrition info on their website. I looked it up and the grilled chicken is zero carbs and a side order of green beans has 4 carbs and 2 fibre so 2 net carbs.

I’m in!

Hi, I’m Jenn. Joining this challenge for the first time. I’ve been off and on my diet the last six months. Really hoping this challenge provides the motivation I need to get back on track and stick to it!

I doubled the recipe last night except I kept it to 3/4 cup coconut milk and 1/2 cup of water. With my ingredients it worked out to under 450 calories and was a cereal bowl full. I ate half and found it enough. It seems like a small amount of ingredients but the chia seeds expand over night making it thick. I had my…

I know you're not keen on the fautmeal but I really like this one. I find it a pretty decent portion. 1 Tbsp unsweetened coconut 1 Tbsp Chia seeds 1 Tbsp ground flax 1 Tbsp hemp hearts 3/4 cup coconut milk 1/2 tsp vanilla 2 tsp sweetener (or to taste) cinnamon (optional) I mix it together the night before and leave it in…

When I first started I only paid attention to carbs and aimed for 20 or less of net carbs (carbs minus fibre). I tracked everything I ate but did not worry about the calories for the first 3 - 4 weeks and still lost weight each week. By then I was adapted to eating this way and didn't have much hunger and was naturally…

I'm just getting back to eating keto too, started last Thursday. I'm 43, 5'4", 204lbs and also want to lose about 50lbs. I've added you all as friends. Let's do this!

I’m in! I joined the January challenge then got sick (Again!) and went wildly off-diet and gained a couple pounds. Struggling to eat healthy but restarted on Monday and hoping to stick with it this month.

At first I didn’t worry about the other macros, just aimed to stay at or below my net carbs. After a couple months I could see my daily average total carbs and set my macros using that average number.

I made flax mug muffins to take to work for breakfast last week - 9g fibre each. 1 tsp melted butter or oil 1/4 cup flax meal 1/8 tsp baking powder 1/2 - 1 Tbsp splenda (or sweetener of choice) 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1 large egg Mix all ingredients together in coffee mug. Microwave for 1 minute. Turn out of mug. Allow to cool. I…

My go to lunches are: Chicken caesar salad Taco salad leftovers from dinner cheese and pepperoni or salami Chili (pre-make a big batch and freeze in portions)

Really hoping I can stick with this for an entire year!

Hi @ceecee3113, if you are looking for people who eat low carb/keto I recommend joining this the low carb group http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/394-low-carber-daily-forum-the-lcd-group. You'll be able to get lots of information and advice there.

Congratulations on the engagement @AccountableAmber! So many life events that can make this harder but that is why it is important to look at it as a change in our way of eating, be kind to ourselves when we have a bad day, week, month of eating and get back to it each time. You will do it! And now you will have your…

Hi Everyone, Sorry I haven't posted on here for so long. I had pneumonia and just couldn't stand to eat my usual low carb food and then gave into all the Christmas treats which I don't normally do. So in the last month I managed to gain 8lbs, getting back up to just shy of 200lbs (199.4). Ugh, disappointing. Even during…

Alright, so I have not been eating healthy the last month and gained 8lbs back! I don't normally go so crazy over Christmas but this year I ate so many sweets. Time to get serious again.

I saved this challenge in my favourites and totally thought I posted when it started but can't find my posting so must not have. I was sick with pneumonia and then went cookie crazy over Christmas and have gained 8lbs (hoping some of that is water weight), so definitely time to get back to eating healthy! Hoping its okay…
