Yes, because I have other health concerns where a keto diet is helpful. For general weight loss...sure, if you like it, but it's not the only/best way to do it.

I don't take specific "cheat days" but occasionally yeah I have a crappy meal, or know I'm going to be out and enjoying myself. I log what I can those days, but I'm not going to sit and stress over a restaurant meal if I can't figure it out. It's one day, and I get back on track the next day.

I was in a bad car accident a year ago, which halted all exercise. Got depressed and inactive...finally changing things for the better. While I didn’t gain TOO much weight, I am so very out of shape now.

Meat, fish, eggs. I LOVE pork rinds.

Freed tenderloin and a harvest pumpkin salad....my dinner tonight and it's about 350ish

I don't have a lot of them, but often do pork rinds instead of chips. Satisfyingly crunchy, no carb and high protein!

I had gastric bypass a year and a half ago...feel free to add me!

Daily, but I record an official weight once per week. BUT is information doesn't freak me out or make me anxious if it fluctuates...that's the key.

It's normal...I had to do severely low carb for two weeks for a medical reason and I felt awful for the first couple days. I found drinking lots of broth helped. Salt and magnesium will be your friend.

That's a choice you have to make...BUT as adorned vegetarian myself I can say that jumping from no meat to a steak sub night give you some intestinal distress to put it mildly.

I weigh daily but I log it here once a week.

Definitely not a "quick fix." I had gastric bypass on March 19th.

Love love love them! PiYo and Insanity are my favorites, although I just started Combat. I am a beachbody coach, so I'm trying to make my way through them all!

Heart rate monitor.

If itfits, go ahead. I just personally choose not to...it kinda grosses me out.

It's a bit too high in sugar for my liking, so I get the reduced sugar variety. Really though, I don't think it makes a huge difference with how little one normally uses.

Nobody says anything...and I'd probably freak out if they did. Leave me and my food choices alone.

Ugh there has to be more than just garlic in that. And I think your mouth/dining partner would hate you if you ate that much garlic at a restaurant.

I just got the program, but haven't started yet!

Genepro. Completely flavorless! Also, if you have a Vitamin Shoppe around you, they have sample sizes of almost everything there. Get a bunch of single servings and see what you like.

Squats all day, erryday!

Genepro. 98 cals, 30g protein. A lot of whey hurts my stomach and this seems to work.

Multi, b12 and calcium as reccomended by my doc. If all goes well at my next blood test, I'll be off the b12.

I use a heart rate monitor for this reason. I find mfp grossly overestimated exercise calories.

This is something to discuss with your doctor. Everyone is different! I had RNY gastric bypass in March and I'm down about 60.

Every morning....but it doesn't mess with my head if the number fluctuates. It keeps me on track.

Running outside, treadmill if I HAVE to....stepper bores me to tears in about 2 minutes.

Maybe 5 mins if I hit every light? I'm lucky in that a beautiful new gym with fantastic equipment recently opened right down the road!

I weigh to help myself learn proper portion sizes. I never had an issue with eating healthy, just with eating too much. Weighing helps to keep me on track and not overindulge even if it's a healthy food.

I like Optimum Amino Energy. I workout at 430 am and seriously can't drag myself out of bed more than 10 minutes before I have to leave my house. I work until 1030 pm so I'm just TIRED. It does the trick.
