thank you all. Yes I have liver disease so worried about that. May just have to stick to low carb instead of keto.

thank you all.

wondering about intermittent fasting, how many hours is the minimum fast to enter state of ketosis?

thanks all- I think I mostly struggling with healthy recipes and choices that the entire family will enjoy. I also find to stick to my calorie count my portion sizes have to but cut quite significantly and therefore I feel hungry so I think I need to add more protein and cut out carbs? I've been trying different things but…

thanks, need to add more protein less carbs and definitely more veggies. I bought a food scale so that should help..

You are an inspiration!! :)

I need to lose 40lbs - count me in :)

thank you that sounds good, small changes instead of doing it all at once...I want to sign up for something at the community center maybe yoga which I've never tried before...:) take care

Hi there: I can so relate...I have three kids, work full time...it just feels like everything is about everyone else...not about me and even if I try to do something for myself I feel guilty...which I am trying to change. This is another attempt for me too, I've been off track again for while, i have about 50lbs to lose…

I know how you feel, I was doing pretty good before Christmas..but not so great since. I log my food but not as diligently as I used to and I just feel blah...everyday I tell myself its a new day, but somehow I always go over my calories. I just keep trying and I am here reading etc hoping that this will help me. Take care…

Thank you all: I will definitely look into this some more, I am the cook in the house so I guess the family will have to try what I make as long as I make something yummy. I think the biggest challenge will be the kids. We all definitely need more fruits and veggies..but what would I put in kids lunch bags? It will be a…

Thank you - I really have to add more exercise and skip or really try for just a tiny try of the sweet stuff...I think I am addicted to chocolate and cake...lol Thank you all

you guys have no idea how motivating this is....I will set up my alarm clock at 5:00am 3 times a week and just do it.... I think I have to invest in a dvd...probalby not ready for insanity but maybe jillian michaels.. Thank you all so much. P.S does walking in a grocery store for 30 minutes count ;) I just came back from…

Thank you all so very much. Very good ideas....I thought getting up at 5:30am was early..;) Wow...I really have to dedicate 20 minutes a day early in the morning to do a dvd or something. I will also try walking 10 min at lunch..I only get 30 minutes and often don't take an acutal break just eat at my desk so I can pick up…

oh my gosh now that is dedication...:)

Hi We eat dinner around 6:00 and then I have a small snack around 8 or 8:30. I read somewhere not eating after 6 will help greatly with weight loss but i am just starting out and starving by evening..maybe i will be able to cut it out eventually.

thats great!

that is a great accomplishment!

hi current weight is 86.5kg which i think is roughly 190lbs and ugw is 150lbs or 69kg

i can so relate....not sure why its so hard...but i think reaching for the protein instead may help?

i have opened my diary...your input appreciated

i changed my target to .5lbs per week...at least for now....thanks

i know...some days can be a real challenge

you are right...i just need to do it!

thank you all so very much, very very helpful. I think i just need to keep making the changes and sticking to them. I am embarrased to open up my diary cause i am not eating 1200lbs...much more than that and my choices have not been great...but i would like your input so i will open it up...maybe that will help me stay on…

thanks so much! yes i need all the support i can get. I will try and be supportive as well. I only started recording all the food for the past 3 days and i think just finding the foods that i eat can be a challenge sometimes. i will keep doing it because it shows me how much i really eat and how much i should be eating.…

thanks so much for your reply. I'm a little lost here i couldn't even find my own post lol I don't eat too much junk and don't drink soda but i love my bread and buns and noodles and coffee with milk and ofcourse chcolate and i think that is whats keeping me back. I will definitely try harder to do the portion control as i…
