Wow, well done you! Its very hard to deal with health issues on top of weight so you have done an amazing job and I bet your general health will have improved too. Inspirational keep doing what you are doing and we are all here to support you.

Hi guys, doing the May challenge too. Had a few days away in Madrid and came back and weighed myself this morning to find that I had lost 3lbs. I tried to stay Keto apart from the Gin and tonics, no tonic light version so I only had a few! May 1: 84.8kgs May 6: May 13: May 20: May 27: May 31: Going away to Thailand in June…

Hi, just wanted to check in and say that I am on holiday with my daughter and today I am having to come off Keto as we are having dinner at Lua restaurant a Michelin star and no substitutes allowed !

I am from UK living in the midlands and in London ☺

Thank you all for your posts, I have been feeling better the last few days. Also been to see the Dr who has sent me to see a consultant tomorrow. All should be fine. I felt better just sharing and getting your replies.

Thanks so much for sharing, I feel better now knowing that this could be absolutely normal on Keto. I am going to see my GP tomorrow anyway just so I can make sure all is in order. Xx

Hiya, I too love this group and good to hear everyone's stories. I also went out a few times last week and thought it would be hard to make the right choices with my food and drinks but I managed it as I was feeling so good about how I looked and felt I didn't want to go back to the old ways. I went grocery shopping…

Thanks but I am straight back on it to I am straight back on it. Egg and Avacado with cheese for breakfast and feta cheese and olive salad for lunch

I am in but this month is going to be tuff as it’s my birthday on 3rd, Mother’s Day on 11th and Easter at the end of the month. Plans have been made for me so I might go off track but I will get straight back on it. I hope it won’t scupper my weight loss too much. Feb 28th - 88.1kgs March 4th March 11th March 18th March…

Thank you all for your knowledge and comments. I will keep going as I am and get my blood check up done in a month or so. Xx

Hi, I too bought Swerve but have not used it yet (damn expensive) I kicked sweetner in my coffee before starting keto and have not had a craving for anything sweet since starting keto. What do you use it for?

Thanks for the advice, I know where to adjust my order now when it comes going out. X

I would like to join the monthly challenge too. Been a week on keto and am feeling the effects already. Already have had a compliment that I am looking good. How do I get on the spreadsheet. 11/2 18/2 25/2

Hi, I have had a under active thyroid now for over 12 years. I have gained weight but i have also managed to loose weight when i am in the zone. I fluctuate with the same 5kgs up and down. It the moment i am up again so have now just come back to WLR to help me shift the weight. I am on 125mg levothyroxine and have been as…

What does nz mean?

Hi All, please do add me too as I have 10lbs to loose and could do with the motivation as well. We can do this. :)

I am totally inspired by reading all your post. Just the motivation I needed. I have 20lbs too loose and I just remind myself of all of your stories and successes and I know I can do it. Keep going fellow pear shaped beauties! ;)

Hi, I am Sharon and I have done the same thing, on and off but for some reason this time I am more determined to loose more than I have lost in the past. I have always just got to a certain point then fallen off thinking that its enough. I find the scanner on the app very helpful and it makes me log everything I eat in my…

I have also suffered with cramp, both in my toes and calf's eventually I had to go to the Dr. He gave me some Quinine tablets which do help but I also drink tonic water now in the evenings as I tend to get it more at night when going to bed as well as when I am training.

Yes i know it was a huge water loss but even so I was not expecting it to be so much of a loss. Its still encouraging and I know that next weigh in will not be so much but as long as I loose something I am fine with that. I will stick to what I have been doing and see if it works again. Thanks to you all for the…

I made changes like my portion size, gave up the daily glass of wine or two! and have been eating all the paleo diet food list. Evening meal has been a protein with a green salad or steamed veg. I have not felt hungry and if i do feel peckish i have taken a piece of fruit or berries and left the tea biscuits in the kitchen.

I always tend to calculate the calories that i eat and using the bar codes I can total accurately and the exercise calories are a bonus.

I weigh myself on Saturday Mornings, that way if I am going out for dinner on Saturday night it balances out during the week.

And thanks for the advice, I was thinking of getting a Polar transmitter anyway.

Wow, thats a lot of calories, I would be afraid to eat all the extra calories! I would feel that I am not on a diet. I am on a healthy way of eating and not on a diet but I would still feel that I would need to refrain from eating the calories I have burned off.

Yes, you are right and I wish they did do an hour class but most of the classes are for lunch time or only 30 mins. I usually do 30 mins on the treadmill then do some weights and do over an hour, today I just wanted to do something and this suited me as I cannot go gym after work today.

Oh I thought I might have burned a bit more with the way I was sweating! Thanks anyway.

All I can say is that if you have an underactive thyroid your dr shouldnt have let you leave the surgery without giving you a prescription as you cannot manage this condition without medication. Confirm your condition and then deal with what you have or not!

Oops sent by mistake. I suffer from an under active thyroid and I can tell you, you can loose weight but its harder to keep it off.
