The cookie dough flavor is awesome but my favorite is cookies and cream. Love it!! I'll second warming them up in the microwave.

I eat keto and would certainly offer it as a suggestion as long as you think it is something that you can truly stick with. Keto isn't some magic pill, it's simply a different way of eating that helps satiate you more easily and stave off the cravings that carbohydrates can bring. I absolutely love it and have been…

I've been ketoing for three months. Just got my own tests back and they're normal. Go ahead and add me if you'd like! My diary is open, though I tend to stick to 40g net carbs, which is a bit higher than a lot of people do on keto. For the flu, drink lots of broths. It seriously helps. The longer you stay in keto,…

Yay, congrats! :D

I highly highly recommend using the keto calculator. http://keto-calculator.ankerl.com/ It's also best to remember... hit your protein goals, stay under your carb goal, and only eat up to your fat allowance to fill yourself up. Your fat 'ratio' is not a goal, simply a marker.

Do you have a spiralizer? I love making pastas with zucchini, and I made some delicious parmesan risotto out of butternut squash.

And there are plenty of videos of people who eat low carb who are ripped and fit. So what? There is no cookie-cutter diet for everyone. Just because this girl eats tons of bananas means nothing for everyone else. Oh, and what low carb foods? You mean things that I eat regularly like spinach, asparagus, and eggs? Yes, there…

I am on the ketogenic diet, and honestly, it's been the most sustainable diet I've ever been on. It absolutely works for me, but I would never push it on anyone else... it's definitely something that is either great for you, or isn't. Also, I eat TONS of vegetables, some meats, cheeses, etc... These huge amounts of fat are…

Congrats, you look great! I'm the same height and at 210 right now, goal of 150. So awesome to get a visual on the difference. :)

Aw man, now I realize how boring mine is.

Definitely check what kind of aircraft you'll be on. Some have far smaller seats than others.

Omg you look beautiful and like a totally new person!

Did you also have the keto flu when starting out keto? Huge dietary changes are going to throw you out of whack. Give it time.

I'm just taking a random guess here... http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/of-whooshes-and-squishy-fat.html

Hi Mike, and welcome to MFP from a fellow redditor! :) This is definitely the place to find the support you are looking for. I'm sure you'll get a bunch of friend requests from this post... be sure to stay active in keeping in touch with them through updates... I know it makes me feel more accountable. The best of luck,…

DragonCon! Of course, it's nowhere near Washington, but I travel pretty far for it. Last year was my first year, and I'm going again this year. Can't imagine not making it a regular thing. The only other convention I've ever been to was Anime Expo in Los Angeles. It was fun, but I wasn't really into any of the panels that…

I've made one, and I never went through this huge process everyone is talking about. It came out FANTASTIC! Crispy on the edges, a little softer in the middle... Anyway, I found it on youtube from some Dr. Berg. Here is his recipe: Ingredients: CRUST 2 cups of grated Cauliflower 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese…

You need to find what works best for you. For me, personally, low carb is the easiest and most effective option. Whatever you do find, it has to be something that you can stick with and not give up on, so if you need carbs, eat them!

This is so amazing that you two got to do this together. Congrats! Also, I moved to the midwest and am far away from my best friend too. It's tough so I feel your pain. Thank goodness for skype!

Yay! Congrats!!

MFP does not calculate net carbs for you, so you have to subtract it yourself. I set my carb limit higher for that reason. I also hear there are plug ins you can get for your browser that will do it, but I haven't bothered.

I listen to instrumental music by Two Steps From Hell... they do a lot of stuff for theatrical trailers, so it's really epic music. It makes me feel like I'm in a movie and always makes things more fun.

Walk around naked all the time. Muzzle the neighbor's dog that never shuts up. Pick up dog poop that people leave out and throw it on their doorstep. Eat endless tubs of ice cream, cookies, and lots of pizza every single day.

You look amazing! Thank you for being an inspiration :)

Awesome job! I'm on a ketogenic diet, and I absolutely love it. Don't be discouraged, just stick with it if it works for you!

Isn't that what the cool kids do?

I'm ketoing as well and love it! There are plenty of us around here :)

You still need to eat something, just make sure it's a good choice. Crap happens, just pick yourself up and stick with it. Tomorrow is a new day, but don't blow the rest of this one.

I would be ordering a large Papa John's pizza plus one of their 8" cookies and eating more than half of all of it.

Slytherin, if there's still room! :)
