Hey there. My husband and I are also trying keto right now.

Anyway, thanks for the good advice those of you who gave it. This post is now frustrating me, because I came for help, not to be called a liar or criticized. So have a good day everyone.

Because one gets scared of the fact that they are diabetic. I started monitoring my bloodsugar four times a day, and figuring out what was making my bloodsugar spike, then I cut those things out of my diet. Since then, I have been trying to replace what I was normally eating (mostly a lot of pasta, I was a pastaholic) with…

I assure you that I am telling the truth. But thanks for doubting me, I guess? From the looks of your rock hard abs in your profile picture, I'm guessing you don't understand how fast weight can come off of a very overweight person.

She was assigned to me through my general practitioner, and is a nutritionist at our local hospital.

My husband and I would always order 1 large pizza each. And you should see me go crazy at a chinese buffet!

The Little Mermaid is my all time favorite, especially Ursula! I really love Frozen, too. And Beauty and the Beast!

Thanks for the advice! I will bring it up with my councilor next time I see her. She never mentioned eating under 1000 calories, it just seems most days with the choices that I've been making, that I am not quite making to that total. I've been kind of concerned, but it feels like I'm eating plenty, so it is confusing to…

I was told to eat low fat by my diabetic councilor because I am also quite a bit overweight. Perhaps I'm overdoing it on the low fat. (I haven't been tracking on my fitness pal every day, but on another site)

I love having their veggie chopped salads!

Nutrisystem is a convenience I don't mind paying for. It may not be teaching me anything, but sometimes you need to step away from being dangerously obese, however you can.

Very inspiring! Your starting height, weight, and age are close to mine, so this gives me real hope.

Some part of me feels that since I have cancer this dieting is all worthless and just making me unhappy.

Give me a full on mountain man beard. I love it!

Wood glue would probably work, Gorilla Glue would be great.

I'll guess at the portions on everything, and record it as exactly as possible... but not until after I've gone home.

Some great ideas for people that use microwaves! :) I'm not sure why, but microwaves have always scared me, so I never use them.

But the world goes into a barter system and money is useless. I wish for 20/20 vision.

Kind of! I bought some sandwiches at a county fair, then went off a few steps and came back because I thought I didn't get my change. But I was holding the bill I thought I had paid with in my hand. I was super embarassed. Have you ever swallowed something without chewing it that should have been chewed?

Yep! Have you ever had a romantic walk... in a corn field?

Good job! Way to keep at it!!

My ex husband and a (female) friend kicked me out of our shared apartment when I was living in Alaska, over 4000 miles from anyone I knew. I had no car, spent my first night in Walmart's bathroom sleeping. It was the best thing that ever happened to me, crawling my way back into a motel, then a boarding house, then an…

An entire large pizza is no problem as well.

Ate in one sitting: 8 McDonald's cheeseburgers, 6 McChickens, and a large fries.

More times than I care to count. Have you ever used a portable generator?

I managed to not drink until the day before my first wedding, 19 years old. I had half a bottle of wine while I was making little packets of birdseed to throw like rice. I didn't realize anything was different until I tried to stand up, then felt dizzy. I'd spent most of my teenage years vehemently preaching against…
