Starting Keto on 1/2. Looking forward to it!

MONEY! My friend and I started a weight loss contest last summer and we have been doing them 10 weeks at a time since then. I would like to think without it, I would still be and stay as healthy as I am, but I probably wouldn't. So e just keep doing them over and over again. Every time, new people join, old people drop…

I do a LOT of what I call "garbage salads" where I put leftovers in the salad. The favorite for everyone who has tried it is the Avocado Salad. I crumble about 3 slices of Turkey baconin to a salad with romaine, spinach and some carrots, celery, zucchini and cucumber. Then I chop the salad, mash an avocado and mix the…

I am 5'8". Highest weight was 274, current weight is 234. The smallest I have ever been was 160 and I looked gaunt! I am thinking 170 will look good on my frame. I do a combo of low cal plus working out to keep muscle mass. I think I have a large frame.

I would definitely start the change now when you see him. Try eating in instead of eating out. Cook together so you both know what the other likes. DH is a heavier guy and I am doing my best to stay on my diet. I have a diverse palate, DH only likes meat and potatoes and sometimes will force himself to eat veggies. So I do…

I started to lose weight right away, but didn't truly notice a difference until I started exercising. Then it really started to come off. About 2-3 pounds a week. After 8 or 9 weeks I was in a smaller jeans size. That was my BEST accomplishment to date.

Everyone will tell you that 1200 should be your minimum. And if you eat only that plus workout, you will go under. I use the app on my phone most days and it helps because it tells you your net (calories-exercise) If you search the topic you will see an overwhelming response to eating no less than 1200 calories.

I do know that a one pound loss is good. And yes, it was a loss (sorry for the confusion). I did weigh in this morning and am down 3, so it was all water weight. I think i went under 1200 once or twice in the last 2 weeks not realizing I needed to eat back some of my WO calories. But I know now that I am doing higher…

Your profile pic put it all into perspective! Thank you. :)

I went to carnival last week and made the mistake of going hungry! I had a sausage and peper sandwich, but no matter what I went in knowing I was going to have fried oreos. I LOVE those things! You can total your walking calories for the day and have a small cheat.

I pack a bag with me. I would also grab some items once I get there as well. dont think it rude or intrusive if you provide your own food. I had a bad weekend on labor day and afterwards I thought; NOT WORTH IT!!! Too hard to recover. My fav snacks are mini rice cakes, special K crackers, celery and carrot sticks, yogurt,…

Congrats!!!! Hoping to post similar pics next year :)

Congrats!!!!!! You look amazing!!!!!

I get the thin sliced chicken from BJ's and marinate it in Lawrys lemon n pepper and grill it. I can eat that all week. Over a salad, with veggies, on a sand which, in a taco. Very versatile. Sometimes I get crazy and use the teriyaki.

We all have those days. I had cake and pizza as it was my triplets first birthday. After they went to bedi did Zumba to make myself feel better. But haven't worked out in 4 days due to DH and all 4 kids being sick. Best thing to do is forgive yourself and start a good day tomorrow. Have a great day.

I wear a bra and a tight sports bra/tank over it.

Hi, just joined 2 weeks ago myself and LOVING this app! Of course scanning bar codes is my fav! I "usually" plan my meals for the day and find it fairly easy to stick to the calorie count. I am 37yo and have fluctuated more times than I would like and am back at my heaviest. Looking to get to a healthy weight to be a good…
