I am too cking in. 19 down feeling fab. but a little baffled that I have not lost any inches anywhere. What is up with that? My youngest Baby Graduates from high school this weekend so my two oldest girls and two of my five sisters are here. Lot of eating. Pray for me. I have looked a head at the rest. we are eating at, so…

Ok wow that make way more sense, I can be so silly. I don't know whats wrong with me sometimes! ; )

elize7 I am sure you can do this, not to worry. You know I have always wondered people say all the time it gets harder to lose weight when you are closer to your goal weight, how does your body know what your goal weight is? I could never understand that statement. I am praying for you this week.

I am not a morning person myself, so most of the time I will either have green tea or broth with 2 tbsp. of coconut oil or butter. it keeps me going till around 3.

I am not new to MFP but I am new to Keto and I love it! I am never turning back. I started Keto on April 8 and as of today have lost 17 lbs. I am 50 5'3" cw 155, gw 135-130. who knows. Please add me I would love to be friends

I have totally fell off the wagon this week and today was the worst. For some reason and if anyone knows why please tell me. I have been craving subs and Gin...... It's crazy. and I want to do so good these next to weeks cause my sisters are coming down from Maine to visit and I really wanted to be 150 or as close to as…

ok thanks ladies, that helps!

I almost died when I first saw the carbs. because peppers are my favorite. I love all colors red, orange, purple, yellow. small, big, hot or sweet. I have even plant six plants in my garden. I have learn to fit them in every day. Along with tomatos and sweet onions. It's so funny the thing you never thought would have…

Like others I have had trouble losing weight. I am just fifty and in March started LCHF/Keto and that has change my life. I have dropped 17lbs. and I feel fabulous. I am never going back to the way I ate before. Everything is so much clearer to me now, and I know I should but I have not really started any exercising plan…

5 lbs a week, a month? what is the goal?

Oh my goodness there are two different people in those photo's. What a fabulous job you have done, you are a role model to me. I am a amazed at what you have achieve. I pray I can do just as well. Good for you!!!!! :)

of course I would and that is what I am trying for. Before I stated Keto was pretty much the same eating habit but without the carbs. I would have no breakfast or lunch, and dinner was a good ol' meat and potato girl with salad and veggies or a nice pasta dish with some protein thrown in along with a salad. always a salad…

Oh and Knit , I love your new Photo!!!!! Thanks everyone!!!!

I'm sorry I must have mislead you all. I do eat healthy foods. The pepperoni was the only processed food in my home. My problem is not eating health it is eating enough. Most days I do IF, I will not eat until around 3-4 not intentional I am just not hungry. Sat for example my boyfriend and I went to the golden corral for…

I struggle to get to 1000 most times I am between 650 and 800 a day unless I drink bpc all day. I just cant seem to get in my calories in. I did discover pepperoni this week but it is so processed. I really don't do fat bomb cause sweets are not my thing. I am working every day to get more calories, but I have never been a…

If you are interested to do keto when you start your # need to look more like %5 carbs 75 % fat and 20 % protein. this may be a wee bit hard for you to start at first if you are a big carb eater. but this is how you will get into ketosis faster, and get keto adapted easier. you could start out with the 50 grams. of carbs…

Good for you! After day three I had lost a few lbs as well and found it wicked easy too. The funny thing for me is I was eating more on the egg fast then I do on keto. It was all so strange to me. God luck and keep going!

actually people with diabetes have to be careful with keto because to get into ketosis you have to bring your carbs down to only 20 grams. and that is way to low for a diabetic. people well above 50 grams. They do have to watch their carbs, so the keto diet may not be right for them. they should always ask their doctor…

I have been on keto for a month and half, I have lost 15 lbs. and have consistently 2 lbs. every week. I feel so much better, I have so much more energy, I do not crave carbs. I am never really hungry. When I started I was a wee bit scared Cause I love pasta and potato's. But now I don't miss them at all. If you go on line…

Really because it's white?

What is the WOE?

So I did the three day eggs fast and I must say I liked it! I did not have to think what I was gonna eat and I love eggs. But I only lost 3 lbs. my thought is because my carbs were already under 10 grams a day. I did not like all that fat at all, it seem not to make me sick but my outer body felt greasy. I couldn't stand…

Have you ever done it?

Carsonheim, your sweet for answering thank you. I get it now!

Good morning Knit, Thank for the advice I have another question and i'm sorry if I am over powering you guys with questions this is all so new to me. This week I gained back two lbs. could it be because I had taco's one night and then the wrap yesterday. I also have been getting in more calories now so i'm sure if that did…

Ok you guys I'm cking in and I think I may be venting a wee bit about me personally. I have had a *kitten* day. I pissed of one of my friends by telling him he offended me last night. He has not called all day. My baby girl was gonna come hang out but after a 3 hour AP exam she was tired and she just want to hang out on…

When I first started I did not get the flu, I think it was because I drank a crazy amount of water, sometimes I did get and still do get head rushes and when that happens I just sit down with a nice warm cup of broth with a wee bit of butter. This has been the best thing that has happened to me. I am a crazy internet girl…

Well I am cking in from the weekend and I feel like such a failure. I was doing so good except for not getting all my calories, but I was staying on keto really well. Then the weekend came and my man brought home for dinner a cooked rotisserie chicken, gravy and stuffing mix and a half gallon of ice cream. I wanna say at…

so you guys I have a cooking question, I am trying! I did say trying so please don't hold me to it if I fail. A new veggie a week. this week it is Brussel sprouts. It has taken me all week to to bring them to my counter. I hate cooked veggies. I did taste them raw and they are not bad so I may add them to may salad. But I…

There is a Keto group here and there is lots of info on the Keto Diet. Along with research on the web about it. It is a very good and healthy way of life, I love it
