Okay so after your post, I went and made myself eat dinner. If you feel up to it, have a look and see of thats better??? Meanwhile, Im gonna play around with my diary goal settings.

Im clueless as to how to set up my goals. Ive tried a number of times but cannot seem to get it right. And protein poisoning???? Seriously? I see diaries that are nothing but protein. And the majority of the ones that are eating just meat are posting about how they would rather die than eat a plant based diet. Im at a loss.

I also would like to add, that for those of you zero carbers who believe that veggies are poisonous and choose to live on meat alone, no judgment there-however, thats not for me.

First of all, let me say a big thanks to all the responses and information that you all have been giving. Unfortunately, a lot of the terms that are being used i.e., "TDEE" and "MACROS" are totally Greek to me. Lol. However, I have stopped looking at the total calories as my goal and more at staying under 20-30g of carbs a…

Okay, so day two (I started yesterday for real) and as I was logging my meals, I am frustrated. I have gone over my caloric intake of 1200 calories by 200 calories! AND though I am under 50g of carbs for the day, I'm thinking that in order to lose any weight, I may need to go even lower than this. But what really…

Thank you for all the helpful info. I'm gonna look for that book, too!

Canada Dry Diet tonic water has NO carbs.

Diet tonic water does exist. Canada Dry makes one and there are NO carbs in it. Sounds like Gin and tonic will be my new favorite!

Thanks so much for all the information. I have changed my diary settings.

My food diary is open to MFP friends only. I don't really care who looks at it I have nothing to hide ;) Ill change my settings so you can peruse.

I know, I'm stunned

I disagree. I have seen way too many people lose a ton of weight following a low carb diet.

You can do this! It IS a big deal. Keep up the good work!

I totally feel your pain. Its actually nice to know that I'm not the only one to struggle with this. I drink 2 glasses of merlot EVERY night. I have tried every diet known to man (without cutting out my wine habit) and NOTHING is working. I'm about to be 46, so I know this plays a part as well. But I also cheat a lot too.…

Totally agree!

I agree, you were just stating that you had success and asked if anyone else had tried it. In reading the comments from the others, I did feel that there was some rude undertones. Glad its working for you! Keep up the good work!
