My house has been Keto since 9/17. My husband dropped 10 lbs in that time and I've lost 7 lbs so far. I know that doesn't sound like a lot, but he wanted to lose 5% body fat (which he did) and I want to lose 15 lbs. total. I seriously feel like I'm cheating at life, it's so easy it's ridiculous. And I'm not even working…

All y'all can definitely add me! I'm always looking for ladies my size for support/encouragement. It's a whole different ball game when you only have a few inches and/or pounds to lose. Sometimes half a pound or half an inch lost is a MAJOR accomplishment that you have to work your butt off to achieve!!

Thanks guys for all the information. I think I'll wait to start eating. And for those of you commenting/wondering, my overnight oats consist of protein powder and greek yogurt, almond milk, berries, etc. I try to make sure I get enough protein in the morning or, like some of you said, I am absolutely DYING by lunch time.…

I've had it about a year now. I use it a lot in the winter. You can add me if you want. My email is jyankie@me.com if you want to look me up.

I'm in. Anyone please add me and we canned accountability buddies!

This year for Thanksgiving I did roasted potatoes instead of mashed potatoes (my version of mashed potatoes involves heavy cream and cream cheese...soo.....). I just quartered some red skin potatoes, tossed in a LITTLE olive oil with a mix of herbs, baked at 400 for 15 minutes on a cookie sheet. : )

I totally agree. I do the same thing!

Feel free to add me. Here's some stats: 29 y/o CW 140 GW 115-120 I started the year at 145, got down to 126 this summer, and now I'm back up again. I will take all the supportive friends I can get!

My fiance and I are at about $500 a month. That's shopping around the outside of the store (all fresh) with spices, boxed pasta, oats, etc. as exceptions. Trying to get it down a little though. I have a secret life goal of being one of those extreme coupon ladies. ;)

That's my new line of thinking ninerbuff.

I texted my fiance and said when I get home, it better be gone. I don't even want to know where it is! lol

CIGARETTES. I love being a non-smoker but holy cow, if I knew I was dying in a week, I'd buy a carton!

So here's a tidbit for y'all. Not so much a diet method, but just something to keep in mind. I had braces put on my teeth about six months ago and I lost almost 20 pounds in 4 months. It was not healthy and wasn't sustained because after a few months my teeth didn't hurt as bad and now I've gained back about six pounds. I…

Okay so this helped me out a bunch. I could never figure out how I was supposed to subsist on 1200 - 1400 calories a day (my BMR depending on whose calculator you're using). I just sort of assumed I needed to stay in that range. Sometimes this stuff confuses me, and being full of Sudafed isn't helping my comprehension…

Thanks to all of you! :) I am feeling so much better this week (well, I'm sleeping anyhow). :)

Thanks for the advice everyone. I tried Zzzquyll (sp?) last night and I slept like a rock! I was a little groggy this morning so maybe I should take it earlier.

28, no kids and will never have any. Two cats, one cattle dog and a Paint horse though! :wink:

Yep, I work at an Army Depot. :)

Hi, I've been on MFP off-and-on for years but I've never really interacted with more than a couple of my friends that use it. I would love to have some friends to motivate me, and that I could help motivate! Feel free to add me! :)
