I am trying Keto....fellow sugar addict here though and truly struggling :( on day 2

I have fibromyalgia and am always sleepy, achy, etc. Now the meds they have me on made me gain every bit of the weight I lost back in just three months. Trying to find a way to bounce back.

I am 5' 1/2" , goal is 110-115 pounds. If I got to 120 I would be happy too! :)

Pentatonix Christmas CD this past December ;) Other than that - it has been YEARS!

Ohh! I bet this would be great with some curry! I might have to give it a shot! :)

That was what I was thinking however when researching, looks like there are lots of veggies and fruits. I am confused by my doctors commentary on my bloodwork too because she says eat high protein, low carb but then says to look into Mediterranean Diet, which from what I can see - does not look very low carb to me. Plan of…

The quantity of veggies and sweets is unlikey and only red meat once or twice a month! I love my steak and hamburger. I try to sub out turkey meat when I can but some recipes you have to have beef for! I have food allergies to most fruits and veggies so I have to be careful how much I intake or else it flares up my sinus…

Tried. Waste of money. I think just massage in general helps but I didn't see any difference and it was over $10. I rub cocoa butter lotion on my body now at night. Not sure if it helps or just the weight loss did it, but I have a lot less cellulite.

^^^ This too. I didnt notice that your calories were set so low.

Since you asked for opinion, my personal opinion is to not avoid anything. Just stay within your daily allowance and pay attention to your macros (protein, carbs, fat, sugar, etc) to make sure you dont go over in those areas as well. That's just my opinion though. I am a firm believer in not depriving my body of anything,…

Security at Target :) applied for cashier but got offered the asset protection job instead. Best job ever! :-)

I am 5ft 1in and looking to get to ultimate goal of 110. Goal for right now is 115 but I would like to get down to 110 to allow for 5 lbs fluctuation. I am currently 121 lbs.

I have them once a week, sometimes twice a week (weekends) I dont believe in depriving yourself and by having a "day off" so to say,I find it easier for me to maintain my goal to being healthier. I also find that now, my cheat days are still better than my days before watching what I eat. Another thing for me, I still log…

^^So jealous of your dinner plans right now:love:

leftover porcupine meatballs and peas (may splurge on potatoes too, we will see if my calories allow it) :)

^^This....Couldn't have said it any better. No matter height, weight, activity level, etc. - 700 calories is not enough. MFP is a place for people to help and sounds like most people responding is concerned about you and not trying to be sarcastic or to be taken wrong, they just want you to understand this is not normal…

WTG! I hope to start it soon too, waiting to borrow dvd from friend :)

Eat back at least 1/2 of your exercise calories earned, you dont have to eat them all back. Stick with it. Are you measuring yourself? The scale isnt always the best way to track your success. If you havent already begun measuring yourself, do it once a week or month. You may be losing inches but not noticing it. It…

Looks like from your diary you are not getting enough fuel for your body. You have to eat to lose. Try small meals throughout the day to help you meet your calorie goal. Did MFP suggest your calorie intake to be that low? Also, dont rely on the scales, measurements once a week or month should give you more information than…

Do you us regular peanut butter or the better n' peanut butter?

^^^^ This is awesome! :)

Thanks for sharing! I must try this out!

I eat whatever I want, as long as I account for it and stay within my daily calorie goals (they appear to be the same range as yours!) :) I allow myself a TREAT day every weekend, sometimes the whole weekend is a treat pending parties, etc. That said, I am still losing weight even with treating myself, I just dont go…

I wish there were a way to target certain muscle groups, but jacksonpt is right. Just diet and continued exercise will help. Eventually you will lose and tone where you want. I personally want my legs looking better (a six pack would be nice too) but I always lose weight in my thighs and butt last not matter how many…

Right there with you! I got so giddy like a kid when I had to go out and buy smaller ones! I dont recall ever being size 5 in them before, even when I was more fit and trim in my earlier years. I am thankful and determined to never buy a bigger size again, they make the cutest ones in our size ;)

Mostlywater, Thank you so much for all of these recipes! I will have to print these out, these look awesome! :)

Thanks! I may try that out too. I heard banana and ice help with the flavor, I need to buy some bananas and try it out. Do you freeze your banana first?
