  • I'm sorry to hear your troubles yet inspired by your attitude to get healthier! I have not suffered from anemia. However, I did just notice tonight that the chicken hearts I used with our ground beef for taco salad was very high in iron. Sounds gross, I know.

  • My fiancée and I are on day 8 of living the ketogenic lifestyle. He did it with success over a year ago, before we met and he was working out 6 days a week.

  • I would look into Paleo & Ketogenic diets. My fiancée and I did Paleo for 3 months then went off the wagon for about a month. Now we are doing Ketogenic to lose the weight. I did tons of research and still do and find these ways of eating fascinating. They go against popular mainstream thoughts on food & eating yet the…

  • Hi all! My fiancée and I have just started strict keto this week. We are doing well and love the app to help us get a grip on what we are eating and percentages of fat:protein:carbs. I also love that we are able to change the percentages to suit each of us individually. I am hoping to lose 30lbs, I don't have a set date, I…
