I meant to say Levo not Levi lol silly autocorrect! It's generic levothyroxine. Are you in the uk too?

I don't think we can get spaghetti squash here so I can't answer your question I'm afraid. Is it high in fibre? Does the fibre take a huge portion of the carb figure? The main thing is stay below 20g net carbs to start with

Don't forget to take your fibre numbers away from your carbs, that will give you a net carb figure. I don't worry too much about % either I'm just focusing on eating less than 20g net carbs per day to get into ketosis and I guess once I get more experienced I can tweek my stats :)

Thank you! And well done to you too! We can do it! I will defo add u and we can help each other along!

My gp won't give me t3 or ndt but I'm hoping the endo will once I'm referred. I'm on Levi at the min.

i even look forward to planning my meals now too! hehe

weighed in this morning, ive lost another 2 lbs! why have i never done this before! haha

I will have to look into where I can get these done locally as I would prefer to have an accurate measurement

I have noticed that I am finding it much easier to stay in a calorie deficit on the keto woe because I'm not snacking and don't feel hungry until meal time. I am missing chocolate though, specifically minstrels

ive been using the scales at the gym. its a stand on one with hand grips. i know they are not completely accurate, but if i use the same machine each time im hoping with the consistency i will get an idea of bf losses

I'm really pleased with the food choices on the keto diet. Im doing 20g net carbs, moderate protein and high fat and after only 2 days I've lost 3lbs! I'm sure it is just water but it is still encouraging. My body fat last Monday was 30.9% so I will do it again on Monday coming to see if it has changed for the better!

Wow thanks guys! Some really great links!

i love the foods that you can eat on keto too, it looks so delicious and as you say, i feel fuller for longer so im not consuming as many calories which will obviously help with weightloss too. this is only day 2 so i will report my losses/gains. hopefully losses though! haha ☺☺ just want to say i do an ave 12000 steps per…

Wow! Hope you get sorted too! It seems like a lot of people have experienced this X

They have talked about a mobile heart monitor so maybe I can suggest that too thank you x

thank you guys, i am actually on prozac and have been for years. maybe it could be related to my meds. i had another episode last night which was worrying, I wasn't even moving I was sat on the sofa playing on my tablet! it is bizzare, i'm just hoping my bloods will reveal some answers xx

thank you! i have 4 dogs so i can fit nice long walks in to my routine

I took tablets that were not for human consumption to kick start my weight loss.. Nearly killed me! :( don't do it, no matter how depressed you get. Positive support from people on here helped me to get a healthy mindset! Never felt better!! Thank you mfp peeps you probably saved my life! X

lol I didn't realise you couldn't get them out there! Maybe I should move to the USA???

silly but honest

Hi Squishy, I have been following atkins for a while and have felt healthier for it. I have been eating whole foods instead of processed mixed foods, but I am unsure if it worked which is why I decided to come onto MFP to see if I could look a little closer at my diet. I know my diary looks bad because it just happened at…

I was substituting milk with cream as I was trying the low carb diet.

I just wanted to say that I agree with everyone who has slated me for eating the crappy foods, and yes you are right, I did make the cake myself and as I am the only one in the household who liked the beetroot choc cake, I felt obliged to eat it all then start again once it had all gone, but you are right and I realised…

Wow! Thank you for your support xx

Those are pics taken this month on our 10 year anniversary evening out. The dress hides a multitude of sins lol It really is my stomach where I have excess fat and I feel uncomfortable in my own skin. I don't need to loose a great deal, just need to get rid of my belly :)

This is very sweet and I applaud you for being so supportive to your wife. You are lucky to have each other x

Accepted :) Thanks x

I will try this, however once I start eating chocolate, I can't stop! I am fine if I abstain.

Haha :laugh: you have really made me smile with the "you are bigger than thepieces of chocolate" bit. I think will use that as a mantra from now on. Thank you that was really helpful and positive xx

Thank you x
