If you can find an MFP member named fitgoat.... He is the keto expert. Keto did not work for me. I need carbs just not as many as MFP says I need. I try to keep mine below 140 a day. Also I try to eliminate refined carbs.

Your weight loss of 4.5 pounds per month for 18 months is impressive. But I have to agree with others here questionong your accuracy. Do you weigh every single thing in grams? Do you measure liquids? Do you double check MFP calorie counts to a more reliable data base? If the answer is yes then you need to see a Dr. No one…

65.... What do I win?

First off.... Starvation mode is a myth unless you are on Biggest Loser or in a concentration camp... It isnt going to happen. Next up 8 - 8 ounce glasses of water is also a myth. If your pee is clear you are hydrated no madtter how much fluid you are drinking. I do not believe in drinking my calories so protein shakes are…

Weigh every single thing... Double check calorie counts, MFP data base is notoriusly bad. Do not measure anything in cups or when something says a medium. If possible scan the bar code. Do not trust exercise calories burned data base. If you eat back exercise calories only eat half of them. As much as possible eat single…

Now Simi Valley CA....in June moving to Buckeye AZ.

Because most men see strippers as future prostitutes. At about 28 when their looks are destroyed by drugs and alcohol a large number of strippers turn to prostitution. Plus most men would never marry a stripper. Stripping is simply a soul crushing job long term. Plus the money is just not all that great.

Coffee enemas work just as well as cleanes do, and accomplish about the same thing. Well that and listen to the post above this one.

Ask your Doctor about Contrave. This med is a mircle drug for me. I would binge eat 4 or 5 times a week. Contrave has stopped them completely. Also stopped my eating at night.

You might talk to a dietician or a professional in the field.

Read about foods that are high on the Glycemic Index. Avoiding these foods has helped me keep my BS in check. Plus it helps with weight loss.

Not asking my Dr for help years ago...

I am not sure what you are asking... Do you want to change your macros to lower the carbohydrate percentage?

You might consider seeking the help of a therapist. One helped me to discover my deep seated need to stay fat. In my case it was from childhood. I did and do the same thing you do. Only now I no longer beat myself up for it.

Before you take the permenant surgical step. Talk to your Dr about Contrave. It contains an antidepressant and a huger suppressant. This has been a godsend to me as it has both stopped my desire to binge eat and my constant hunger. It is not a miracle drug and there are serious side effects but my choices were that or…

Ok this is not going to be well accepted here on MFP... Personally I was to the point of either surgery or drugs under a Doctors Supervision. I chose the drugs. I am on Contrave and it is a godsend for me. You still need to eat at a deficit to lose but Contrave has killed my cravings. Ok let the hate begin....LOL

Yup this but giant not small.... I need the potassium.

Contrave is what finally stopped my craving bug. It is expensive but worth it.

$15. Cheapy from WM or BB&beyond. Make sure it is battery operated and has a tare button.

First you will have to make your food diary public.

Congrats. I completely agree with your statement ... Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Please understand you do not and can not defeat Diabetes. You can put it to sleep with diet changes, weight loss, and exercise. But once you have it... You never get rid of it. It can and will come roaring back sometime in the…

I get sliced beef and turkey at the deli. Take a slice of each and stack them roll up a string cheese stick.. Zero carbs 200 calories. Add a dill pickle spear on the side.

Fresh crab from Fishermans Wharf in SF then Bouldins Sour Dough Bread. In Hawaii have a true Hawaiian breakfast of Spam and white rice plate from McDonalds.

Why not throw it or give it away?

Interesting study... I think I will try it as I am a T2 diabetic, not as a weight loss supplement.

I was doing very low carb.... Less than 20 grams per day. I have recently realized that 20 is too low. So I am now going to increase carbs to 50 per day. But I will never go back to the 200 per day recommended by MFP.

My thoughts exactly...

It is spelled lose....

What is the RDA for carbs?

Hidden carb are carbs you only find when you read food labels... Such as ketchup has added sugar.
