hi there i'm in Darlington :)
-
My eczema is significantly better since low carbing :)
-
I'm 9lb up from 3 weeks ago - i'm hoping some of that is water retention! I normally low carb but have eaten loads of carbs over Xmas so hopefully i'll lose that fairly quickly now i'm back on track :)
-
Wow thanks for this! I've been using H&B - now checking out the online suppliers! :)
-
I'm a bit further away - Darlington - but feel free to add me!! :)
-
Not doing keto but I am low carbing - I started on Atkins & have upped my carbs a bit since then but still keep to 50g or less per day.
-
I tried this tonight & made fab cauliflower fried 'rice'. It's brilliant & works really well. Thanks
-
Thanks for the keto calculator that's really useful - i've adjusted my macros & will see how it goes. I know what you mean shar140 about adding back the carbs - I may not add back bread it is indigestible for me! I make my lunch the night before as well but i'm the only one doing low carb in my household so I cook for…

Thanks everyone that's helpful. I have ketostix but always find them a bit variable - they have always been a fairly pale colour for me even when I was on induction with Atkins so eating less than 20g carbs a day, so I don't entirely trust them!! I will play around with the macros & see if I keep losing weight I think.…

DivaSlimsDown - Wow that's awesome! How inspirational, well done!

I've just had this for breakfast & it is lovely! Hope it keeps me full all morning! :)

Hi there I'm also a low-carber. I'm 45 and have about 70-80lb to lose. I weigh in usually Mondays but don't always weigh in every week - perhaps I should! I've yo-yo dieted all my life & this is going to be the last time i'm taking it off - life style change time!! Happy to be friends if you want any body else! :)
-
My story is similar - i've been a yo-yo dieter all my life. I lost 77lb 12 years ago then met my partner, moved in & put it all back on again! I am above 200lb now and this time it's the last time i'm doing this! Lifestyle change this time :) I have no real tips for you - I have found it hard but am totally committed this…

Originally from Kent, been in Darlington for the past 12 years :)

Wow fantastic! Well done. Very inspirational, thanks!
-
Me too - i'm over 200lb! I'm low carbing which is working well for me. Happy to be friends! :)
-
request sent :)
-
Wow you look fantastic!! Congratulations! :)
-
I didn't get married til I was 34 & had my son at 39! Was overweight way before I met my husband!! :)
-
You look fantastic! Congratulations and well done! :)
-
I'm doing Atkins too. Find it difficult at times but it's definitely working :)
-
Yes I'm doing low carb. It works really well. Previously I ate lots of carbs - rice, pasta, bread, potatoes were a staple part of my diet. I thought i'd never be able to cut them out. But I am feeling healthier and less tired on the low carb diet - so although it is still difficult as my carb cravings have not vanished, I…

Hi I have one son aged 5. I want to be able to run around with him and improve my current medical problems. I have about 84lb to lose & would be happy to be mummy friends! :smile:
-
Wow that's fantastic! Well done and good luck with your remaining weight loss. I have about 5 or 6 stone to lose (not sure where the end will be just yet!) and have just started on MFP. I'm a lifelong yo yo dieter! I did Slimming World and lost 5 stone about 10 years ago & really liked the plan. At the moment i'm on a…

20lb is fantastic! Well done :)
-
Hi there I'm 44 & just starting to lose weight (again!) after a lifetime of yo yo dieting. Good luck & maybe we can motivate each other!! :) I have 84lb to lose
-
Thanks Marianne Yo-yo dieting is the story of my life! But this is it!! After going through this I am NOT doing it again! :) Thanks for the inspiration. It's going OK at the moment but i'm starving - all the time - it's the mental battle that's the hardest. I'm told that once my body goes into ketosis I won't feel so…

Hi there I am on a medically supervised VLCD - it is only day 3. It's really hard isn't it - I feel like i'm starving? I can't really offer any helpful advice, only to say I have medical problems & am 44 - my grim determination to sort my problems out is getting me through at the moment & sheer will power - which I didn't…
