That's awesome!!! What does your diet consists of on a typical/regular day?

.

Hi! I seem to be having a harder time meeting my daily "fat intake" goals. Any suggestions, tips and/or advice?

I'm new to this forum/group. Hello to everyone! I'm also in keto group, but I wanted to ask what is the normal or should I say average amount of carbs for a low carb (not keto) diet? What are some of your daily carb target/goals?

I've been looking for a group such as this one. I'm an everyday wine drinker and it has definitely wrecked havoc on my weight and overall appearance. I hate it! I was drinking, at times, two bottles per night and I still pretty much do on the weekends. But during the week, it's no more than a bottle but usually 1/2 or 3rd…

How do I change the recommended targets?

Hi all - I didn't weigh in yesterday because I just started the group on Thurs. Today will be the first day that I'm getting back into exercising as I've stopped and started so many times. I really want this to be the last time that I start! I want to make fitness and eating well a daily, lifelong routine and commitment.…

Hi - you can always take a few tablespoons of coconut oil or flax seeds, a few almonds, olive oil, etc., to increase your fat intake. I find that very simple to do.

I absolutely love this quote!!! Thanks for sharing :)

Hi everyone! Wow! So inspiring to see such a thread on a fitness site. I've been looking for a group that had/have some of the same struggles as I do. I haven't started "not drinking" yet, but I surely plan on it. I've been researching and pulling out my old books to start my journey to sobriety. I love wine! I'll drink a…

How do you add friends?

I'm in too!

Thank you! Very useful and thorough information! I really need to cut back on wine too! I think I can handle the food a lot better :)

I had a spinach, 1/2 banana, flax seeds and almond milk smoothie for breakfast. Yes, bananas have carbs which is why I only used half. I'm doing the low carb / keto thingy as carbs really affect my blood sugar and makes me fat! Period! I do not cut out all carbs (which is impossible), but I try to watch my intake and…

Hi! I'm Gwen and I'm 37 yrs old with one child! I am about 30 lbs overweight (according to the guidelines). I have HBP and am prediabetic. I do not look big (my stomach and upper body is a lot larger), I'm just wayyyy out of shape. Looking back at old pics from a few years ago depressed me and brought me back here! I…

Hi all! I've been a member of fitness pal for a while now but never really engaged/used it. I really want to begin a healthier lifestyle and lose this weight. Any tips, motivation, encouragement is most definitely welcomed b/c I surely need it! So how does the group/challenge work? Do you guys share tips and recipes? Is…

Hi - I want to try keto too... I've been on and off of the low carb diet for a couple of months now but I am ready to get serious. My gut is huge! :(

I'm just starting today as well. I also had to boiled eggs...wish I had some almonds. I will be better prepared tomorrow for breakfast.

@Rufftimes How do you like it? Are you willing to share tips, advice, recipes, etc.?

Here's the link to day 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wJtQjQ4HI8 Here's another link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRlzPXHP_Jo ( 28 day program provided by BeFit) All Free on YouTube Not sure if you like pilates... but here's a link to 30 day pilates challenge! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RT5r2NR7oAA

Erin Motz has a great 28 day yoga program that is good for beginners. You can type in "28 days yoga" in YouTube and it will bring it up. It's free and full length, but only 20 minutes or so per day which is a great start for newbies. I used to purchase so many workout programs, but now YouTube is my best friend...
