I would like to be a part of this! thanks!

Awesome and a great motivator for me!

Would love to join this group. I'm just getting back to my plan- I really need to up my exercise. I have a fitbit which really motivates me. feel free to add me as a friend. I do best when I post on my wall and get responses from my fitness pal Pals!

Thanks for posing your question. I am hoping to get pregnant soon and everyone's feedback has been helpful. Congratulations. :)

How did everyone's week go? I lost 7 lbs! (though I know some of that is water weight...) was 200, now 193!!! YAY. Onto week two ! :) Hope everyone is doing well!

Fantastic Loss!

Hey everyone! I hope to check in often. I'm going to need support. Please friend me (and let me know where you found me) if you want an extra one... :) I try to write on my wall often. I have done low carb under 50 net, in the past and it works for me. But the last 6 months or so I have been "cheating" and not really…

I need to get serious myself. I know Atkins/low carb works best for me and it reduces cravings. I want to get this weight off too! :)

I follow lower carb (under 50 net), but definitely need the support to stay on track. Always looking for encouraging friends (and I encourage back) so let me know if you are interested in being pals!

Trader Joe's Original Tahini-Free hummus. They have other flavors too!

This was delicious! Thank you so much for sharing. I used about 1/2c of Swerve instead of the stevia. YUM!

thankyou!

Thanks! I'm going to try this one. I love that website/blog.

Congrats on your successes! I love following lower carb (50 net) works for me and I believe I can eat this way long term.

great topic! I also like to add avocado or cream cheese to add a little fat.

Great list! thanks for sharing.

Great idea! I'm 39 5'7 SW 205 CW 183 GW 150 If we are twins, Please include a message with the request. Thanks!

Thanks Tracey! great macros too!

I try to get my fiber 'naturally' such as above, but if not, I use VitaFusion Fiber Well (sugar free) Gummies. 5 grams of fiber and 5 carbs= 0 net, per 2 gummies. 10 calories. They taste good too. :)

Me too :) Love to have some more active friends.

This is very helpful information for me to hear, my weight loss has dropped off to about 1 lb a week! Sorry I can't offer advice but I appreciate everyone's input!

I've been doing Turbofire dvds on my own schedule based on what time I have to do them, would love other friends to help motivate me- Count me in!

I love making ice cream with it! See: http://www.thenourishinggourmet.com/2012/07/homemade-coconut-milk-ice-cream-recipes.html

Great ideas! Thanks everyone. I always do a turkey breast in the crockpot for Christmas. Easy!

Looks like you started in the right place! I love MFP and love my friends here! MFP friends make all the difference! I'll send you a request. :)

I have really enjoyed having the option of a MIM. I make mine with Swerve Sweetener and just started adding a 1/2 scoop of Whey protein- I love this version- much less "flax" tasting _more carbs, but more protein too! Also, I sometimes add 1/4c of Blueberries or 1/2 chopped apple. Thanks to everyone who shared their ideas…

Thank you for sharing! I look forward to trying some of these!

Great thread to start... I don't have any recipes, but I need some! thanks!

You can also not use almond flour and just increase the swerve to 1 c. the original recipe, calls for 1 c. sugar, so I switched it out with 1 c. Swerve, but it was too sweet with Swerve. Also, Swerve is considered a sugar alcohol, so the carbs are not counted (doesn't make sense to me, but was told this.) Just wanted to…

Here we go! We can do this! :) Next Monday is my birthday so we'll see, but I'm in the right mindset! I guess I'm a little nervous, I've not yet posted my weight like this... My weight: 10/24- 175.8 10/31- 11/7- 11/14- 11/21- 11/28- 12/5- 12/12 - 12/19-
