  • Mine is the same, or was today! I thought I was getting a UTI, but hoping it's just the KETO smell!!
  • Awesome job!!! and Ignore the expressions? They're great! :smiley:
  • Thing I ate on LCHF: I miss fruit! Also being in college it's really difficult to stay on track while everyone around you is ordering pizza, takeout, etc. So it's a bit of a bummer trying to stay social whenever they have parties or something. Oh, and when we do go out, I'll order something KETO friendly, like a burger,…
  • Great job! I know the struggle! I just finished my sophomore year of college. I went in my freshman year promising myself I was going to stay healthy and maintain a fitness routine(I had just lost 30 pounds through my senior year and was getting happy with my body). Freshman year, and dorm life turned into constant pizza…
  • Well, today did not go as planned. At all. I binged on sugar free candy, thank you TOM. Good news, there is not more candy. Bad news, I ate it alllll. It's only been a bad 2 days so tomorrow I'm getting back on track. Ugh. Stressful few days.
  • Yes!! Got off track today and been feeling icky. I'm probably just going to have fried and scrambled eggs for the duration though. Trying to make it simple and get back in the routine! :) Good luck everyone!
  • Just wanting to say I absolutely love your profile picture and username. Garrus is <3. Anyway, I've found that simply losing weight helps a lot with cellulite. Creams, and rubs aren't going to get rid of it. I It definitely takes time, and weight lifting helps so much! A few years ago when I had lost weight and was weight…
  • I've been craving milk! I really don't even like milk, so it's really confusing me. :o
  • Wow. I can't believe someone would give such a rude comment. I wish I could have seen the OPs original post but it's not showing anymore. This is suppose to be a site of encouragement! Most people on this site have low self esteem and self confidence, and rude comments are not welcomed. I've been on this site for a while…
  • Definitely take into consideration how long you've been sticking with your calorie goal. If it's just been a couple or days, or even weeks, then you need to give it a little more time. If after a few more weeks nothing changes, make sure you are weighing/measuring everything. Calories add up. Measure condiments, drinks,…
  • I've heard about it and don't really know what to do to raise sodium. I'm guessing regular table salt isn't the solution? Also, I know it is recommended to take Magnesium supplement, and I've tried some about a year ago, but the pills are just so huge that I couldn't keep taking them. Any recommendations?
  • I have that problem. I've been trying to start eating LCHF for a couple of weeks, and by day 4 or so I get nauseous and eat carbs because I feel that's the only thing that helps. I really don't know what to do. If you find a solution, please let me know!
  • Bad. I did bad. :( Now dealing with cravings and was very lightheaded and shaky today. I am trying to get back on track today.
  • I've had similar issues. These past few days I haven't had a lot of fat or protein like I'm trying to get, but when I do get a lot of fat or protein I will wake up around 5 am with a nauseous feeling that takes a while to go away. I'm hoping when my body gets used to the higher fat and protein intake, then it will go away.
  • I've considered an IUD. I've never met with a gyno but I plan on doing so within a month and discussing it with them. Hopefully will have some insight on what will be best. :)
  • Thanks everyone! Getting back on track now, and definitely lowering the carb count. MY body just does not like them, apparently. For the itchy face, I'm guessing it was the milk I had. Milk makes me break out, but this is the first time my face has itched. Maybe I have a lactose intolerance that I never realized? That's…
  • I just turned 19 yesterday.(: in college and really struggling with low carb, or diet in general.
  • I've been on Mononessa since March and it made me really bloated. It increased my appetite and of course I gained, and started college, so more gaining. I do believe it causes difficulty in me to actually lose the weight though. I'm strictly watching my food intake now and tracking my macros, and no weight loss. Mononessa…
  • I really want to, but I'm kind of scared of my doctor. She will not listen to anything I say. I gave her all of the symptoms from the beginning, and she told me, it's just how your body is. You're always going to be like this. I don't agree with that, since a little over a year ago I felt amazing.
  • I'm not pregnant. Definite. :) But, this has been going on for about a year now. Last year around April I started losing weight, and lost it at a great rate, and then one day, my stomach started hurting, I was weak and I couldn't lose weight very easily at all. It was all minor, and spiraled from there. It got continually…
  • Well I've heard from others that you need to get a full thyroid panel, not just TSH. T3, T4, reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies, or something like that? auto something? I dont really know... I just, I've been so weak, and have had awful digestive problems. I get really lightheaded a lot, and have trouble swallowing…
  • A couple of months ago I got 4 cysts at one time, but they kind of dissapeared after a month or so, i had to drain one. I don't know if I have this or not, but it worried me. Lol. I've never even heard of this.
  • Amazing job!!! :)
  • Freshman this fall! I would really love some other friends. Lol. I don't know how college is going to affect me with foods. Kind of worried.
  • I have trouble getting past 10... Goodness. I couldn't imagine 80.
  • Okay, 1700. And I've just heard you need to lose an extra 5 pounds than your goal weight, because then you'll gain those back and be at your goal weight. For such a low weight that may be difficult though. If you haven't seen any changes in your measurements and you don't gain anymore weight, I wouldn't worry though. :)
  • I've heard once you reach maintenance you gain back about 5 pounds of some type of sugar. That's why normally in the first week or 2 you lose a good 5 pounds super quick. I wish I could remember the post I saw lol. Hopefully someone else will reply that knows what they're talking about, because I have no idea. I mean, I…
  • So, you should lift before you run? I used to hear running was better before lifting. Or, does it really not matter?
  • I wouldn't mind my butt being bigger, must do more squats♥ Hips: 37, thighs: 23-24. I would looove for my thighs to shrink though...
  • I started it a month ago, and gained 5 pounds, but that's just water weight. :) I have an increased appetitte, but I'm keeping it under contol, or, starting to. :) I let it take over a few days, but that's just my fault.
