ruled.me is the one that was recommended and that I just started using after ALOT of research. And, from what I've learned, it's net carbs. Hope that helps.

Hi all! So glad to have found this group!! I just started keto this week. I had transitioned to lowering my carbs over the past few weeks. So, far I'm feeling fine...just trying to research pinterest and the internet for ideas, meal plans, and recipes to keep me on track. Also, been on Instagram a lot following people who…

I'm freshly back on MFP today, so hello all. :smile: I wanted to echo what Kristykris31 said as I relate to it a lot. I have hinted at my BED with my mother, commenting about my unhealthy relationship with food but I think she doesn't realize the scope (and in her defense, I haven't given enough information to truly…

Today I am proud of myself for getting my meals prepped and for restarting C25k so that I can begin incorporating running again.

Hi there. Been on/off again MFP member for years. Lost the chunk of my weight back in 2012. But have been consistently putting weight back on since 2013. I am still active with workouts and moderately consistent there. But, because I binge, and when I binge I binge over days- I cannot lose weight. I am here to gain some…

March 3 Me: 2 Binge: 1

Hi there. I've been on MFP for years, recognizing slightly but not quite understanding my disordered eating. I had joined this group a few months back but have not been motivated to address the issue. However, I am here today hoping to find the strength to do just that. I am a roller coaster and right now, I am on the slow…

March 1st Me: 0 The Binge: 1 Probably one of the worst binges to date. Glad I found this today to (hopefully) help me set out on a healthier path.

We've been chatting for quite a while now. ... ;) so please don't hesitate to express whatever feelings/thoughts you have! Negative, positive, indifferent, unknown. It's what we've kept this board going based on! The ability to discuss whatever pops in/up!! From weight to diets to workouts to life!! MFP will be here. I…

S90 in this weather seems like a fantastic idea! How are you feeling? The morning workouts look great! We are in the deep freeze again here. Such weird weather, or I'm just old and notice it more now. It was cold enough our gas lines froze on Monday. Super weird. May stick with home workout tonight because sheesh on the…

I am praying you get good news soon. And I am glad the retrieval went well. I imagine it does put you on your butt! Good for you for listening to your body and taking some time!! Definitely high protein. I need to get the shakes back in the rotation because it's easy, but ugh. LoL. I am on a 3 good days/1 iffy rotation it…

I would have won the competition had I made it to it. :-( my numbers (assuming I didn't flop) would have beat the top female. Darn it. We ended up back in the ER with Tarren getting strep 4 days after getting of Tamiflu. Needless to say I need to stock up on Lysol. I am back in the gym though, trying to build my numbers…

I am not back to the gym and no names have been taken. >:) I caught the bug and have been completely out of commission until today. Hopefully today will be my first day back into the gym since Friday before we went away. No, I take that back, I went this Saturday but it was more of a I showed up tried to lift, was out of…

I hope Josie is all better. Tarren caught the flu somehow. He came down with it after we got back this weekend. He's on the mend but those fevers are scary when they won't break. How are you feeling? No gym for last four days between being away all weekend and tarrens flu I haven't been able to go. Tonight I'm just too…

Haha. i love those doctor's orders. Definitely make it something delicious and get it in! Good luck with the injections, sounds like he's been repeating the only walking comment which means he must have your number! :) It's only two weeks in the scheme of things so relax, follow the recommendations, and enjoy that…

I finally found the forum! I had to search with your username. Ugh, why is it so difficult for me? I hauled our tree out the day after new years, we only have the one real one and one baby one. However, it is now just laying on the side porch. So....let's call it mild progress!! Did you find the food journal entries you…

I made it to the gym last night...it was close though! ;-)

My email to you about it was 10/2012. I love the search function in email. I use it all the time at work since I save everything, it's so much easier to locate things with a few key words!! I've been tracking on My Macros Plus, trying to see if I like it. I don't think I do. It was suggested to me since it's all grams and…

New Years was awesome, besides Dan having to work all night. We spent it with my mom end 92 year old grandma doing fun activities like crafts and board games. Eating way too much food of course! Then this weekend was Christmas at my grandmas so more excuses to eat, I'm out of excuses now though. Lol. The kids are back in…

And now I'll have to posts since I hit some wrong button and posted already. LoL. Christmas was nice. Too short, I wanna go back. :smile: Ate too much. Said I ate too much, and then ate some more!! Hit the gym this morning with my Monday motivation. I'll let you know if I still have it by Wednesday! Kids are off until the…

So I'm only 11 days late to the party. Seriously been terrible for the last what...2 months? Not cool miss thang not cool. I should probably be more active and motivated soon!! :smile:

Amen to that statement! No more gain would be fabulous. I hope thus new plan brings some good news. And, I am very sorry yo hear about the weekend. You have been doing a great job of staying on course with the workouts throughout the past weeks. Great job. I finished day 3 of couch 2 5k. Doing that 3z a week be gore my…

So I'm way behind the eight ball. This lack of motivation is carrying me through the last few weeks, even when I get a good day or two in- I slide right back. Plus having to search for the discussion (trivial, I know) frustrates me. I liked simple MFP. Lol. I'm still way up, I'm still trying to get the motivation to push…

I struggle trying to find our thread every darn time. It's frustrating!!!! Dan had to work a double yesterday, and he's on for Christmas. :-( so that stinks but other than that things are good. I'm still studying for this test, which keeps me up late at night so my AM workouts are up/down. But getting 90% of them in. My…

And then I went MIA! :neutral_face: opps! Well, hmmm. Answers are a step and I definitely can see where you are at with the limitations of the option. It's a lot to think about. Hopefully, you can talk about everything as a family to see where to go from here. Maybe AFTER the big party and once you are feeling better. You…

So today was Back and Bi. But of course I also started with Squats. Because I love them. Because they are my favorite. And because so long as I get to squat, I pretty much will show up for whatever workout. :p Yesterday I had the day off. I did eat out but had a salad and small pasta dish from applebees. Stayed off the…

I can see what you are saying about the workouts. And honestly, the fact is you are working out, you are being consistent. So I think that carries more weight than anything. Being healthy. That's a giant commitment whether it's Strong Lifts, youtube.com, or Insanity. You definitely have a lot on your plate so never sell…

Mourning Strong Lifts 5x5 today. :'( With the weights going up and my deficit going down, I'm at a point where I have to put in a pin in the program for now. If Dan could be with me to spot me, I could potentially keep going. But, I already notice a different after 2 days with squats this morning. I'm going to keep the…

Yep, TOM and halloween candy do not go hand in hand. I asked Tarren to hide his, but he thought I meant from Dad so he hid it in front of me. And then said, ha! he'll never get my candy! :D It was too funny. Monday was a good day, Tuesday was an 'eh' day. Today is yet to be seen. My nerves are bad with this whole…

My weekend was not good. I did plyos Saturday but that is the only successful thing MFP wise I accomplished. House wise we did move our 'toy closet' into the spare room so that the kids have easier access to the toys. Plus it gives the electrician more room to work with. My weight is up 13lbs from my 'normal range' - some…
