  • From what I understand to much protein can prevent ketosis and reduce fat loss. If you want to eat 1700 cal that will end up as a lot of protein. If possible at least eat the more fatty cuts of meat and a lot of cheeses are low in carbohydrates if you enjoy dairy.
  • I recently had a wisdom tooth out and sugar free snow pudding with flavour of choice and low carb creme brulee are pretty good. Those are sweet options though. I had avocado and cottage cheese, though you could use cream cheese for less carbs.
  • It really depends on the person. If I have to many carbs I do bloat up and get tired but that was the case for me before I even went low carb. It is usually gone for me in about three days and doesn't really kick in for a couple of hours after. Except for one time at an indian restaurant I don't know what was in the food…
  • Have still only made it to 103.5kg, have actually gone up but it is "that time" so not to worried. Will stick with it and see how I go, have a couple of week before the end of the month.
  • To me you ratio's seem fine. Looks very similar to the range that the keto calculator gave me. It really depends on the person, you just need to notice it for yourself if it works for you. Some body's are more sensitive. I'm lucky, I can eat 50g sometimes more of carbs and stay in ketosis, others go over 20g and it's no…
  • I want to get under a 100kg, but barring that I want to get under 102kg because that will mean I'm finally halfway to my goal weight.
  • I'm getting a fair bit of walking in and want to keep that up. Also I would like to start riding, horses and bikes. :) Lifting weights would also be good. Looking for work at the moment and I'm applying for anything that I think might keep me on my feet for a bit longer each day.
  • I have used the cauliflower rice in sushi rolls and found that while not the same as rice quite tasty.
  • I used to find that I had pretty much unbearable pain when I exercised, much more than seemed right for the amount. A trainer I talked to said to try BCAA's, the amino acids. I was a bit doubtful as I had been eating extra protien already but found they made a huge difference for me. It could be worth a try if the other…
  • I'm in, looking forward to kickstarting my weight loss again. Have been fluffing around and realised that if I hit 102kg, I'll be at the halfway mark.
  • I'm joining in, I'll weigh in on Saturday to get started though as my scales are playing up.
  • Real Name: Laura Height: 5' 7" HW: 308 CW: 282 GW: 150 Location- Australia Age: 27 Sex: F Back again after I got distracted by life. A big part of my plan is to up my protein while watching my calories, but I have set myself to do 40% protein, 30% carbs and 30% fat. I have found for me that as long as I keep my protein…

  • My weigh in is - 268.6 lb Start of this I was 269 lb so only a tiny result weight wise, but my body fat percentage has gone down a little so that's good.

  • I've been here before and thought that this is an awsome thread, just updating to let you know that I've been inspired by this to start the C25K so that I can at least manage to run that far before they get me. In the meantime I'll have to up my weight lifting so that I can at least hit them with something heavy.
  • I would really love to join in. My current weight is 269lbs.

  • This is a bit of a problem that I have had and still do have a bit of (fear of attention). This time around rather than give in to my fears I'm trying to focus on my own health and how good I feel when I'm lighter. I used to hide behind my weight and use it as an excuse but I'm trying to focus on losing weight for me and…
