  • What you did sounds like a low carb diet. Getting rid of refined carbs is an excellent way to lose weight. It's not unhealthy but you may also want to include more working out in your routine. And also look into low carb diets for more details like Atkins, primal, or palelo.
  • Wheres the chocolate in the recipe?
  • Totally agree! I have the same mindset!
  • I am a big girl too and gave delt with those same issues. I have a large personality, and I know that is sometimes hard foe people to approach me. I do tend to be the intiator of most conversations with guys but that's just for flirting and free drinks at the bar. I don't believe that I would ever start a relationship with…
  • How many calories are you taking in if your fast ends in the middle of the day. Are you trying to get all of your daily calories in or are you just eating whatever keeps you full? I never tend to be hungry after my fasting.
  • So I did an 18 hour fast today and the issue that I have is that I can not even get close to my calorie intake during my eating time?? Is that bad. I only had 400 calories today. I'm not hungry and I don't like forcing myself to eat when I'm not hungry.
  • Just started reading primal blueprint because it combines low carb with IF
  • Went to the gym last night and this morning. So yay for me but I'm sore, it's a good pain though. I have been going well with this diet. Staying under 20 grams of carbs and I can even enjoy some hooters wings. I've learned that the key to success is to always be prepared. So I try to have my meals planed out for at least a…
  • So this morning i was too tired to wake up and go to the gym. its a mental thing! i will go tonight after work then i will definitely force myself to wake up tomorrow! i have no choice i cant get lazy m=now i just started!
  • it is good that you are increasing your protein but also try to lower your carbs. you are hungry because your sugar level are crashing. if you try to fix that it may help.
  • just recently heard about Intermittent Fasting and am really considering doing it along with my Atkins. Im only afraid that i will not be able to make it because i have tried cleanses and fasts before and found that i was always hungry. how do you get over the hunger??
  • Has anyone tried intermittent fasting I'm looking at information and I'm thinking about coupling it up with Atkins.
  • My addiction to cabs is why I decided to follow a low carb lifestyle. When I first started I weighed 202 and went down to 187 in a month with only a little bit of working out. I am now 190 and I have an 8 week goal of 25 pounds and an ultimate goale of 50 pounds. Hoping to hit that before the year is over. I plan on…
  • You've been doing well. Keep it up
  • Didn't do weights today but I that's only cause I was outside all day building playgrounds for kids. All that hammering, moving wood, and drilling has made me feel like I was lifting elephants all day.
  • Stronger smelling urine is a sign that you are in ketosis. Your breath is also suppose to smell fruity or something( obviosly ive never spelt it on my breath lol) So it's a good thing. Just remember to continue to drink lots of water!
  • Yay I've finally won something! Lol So my challenge for everyone this week is to add variety into your workouts. I challenge everyone to do some weight training this week. If you've already started to then add some reps, weights, or find a new routine. If you've never done it before. Start off with 5 to 10 pound dumbbells…
  • After logging for a few monthes I realized that I had the same issues. I was ALWAYS way over my carb and sugar allowance. When I started researching I came across Atkins. Which is a carb controlled way of eating. I actually went and bought the book and read cover to cover. It explains our bodies addiction to carbs and how…
  • I try to stay at 20 g of carbs as well. It definately keeps me in ketosis. And the amount of carbs that a person needs to get into ketosis depends on the person. Make sure to drink lots of water as well. It helps to avoid any kidney stones from braking down the amount of protein that you will be eating. Good luck. And keep…
  • i have been on a similar weightloss of no carbs. it is amazing how the weigh just starts to melt off when you hit ketosis! you wont be hungry as much and you will loss cravings. i still count calories but some dont, its pretty easy for me to stay within my allotted calorie count because im not so hungry. Good luck on this…

  • For lunch I tend to plan my meals ahead. I will just make and pre packaged them in the fridge on Sunday nights. I have done tuna lettuce wraps with sugar free jello as dessert. Or chicken ceasar salads. I have also made a big batch of hot bufflo wings and put blue cheese on the side and have it with a small salad. This…
  • Sorry for the repetition computer was acting up.
  • So I went out for my friends graduation and I drunk 3 shots of vodka. I know that I shouldn't be having LQ while in the induction phase but vodka has no carbs so do you think it will knock me out of ketosis??
