My mistake, sorry!

I am not a big dairy person so I can not add that to things. Egg, cheese and butter is as far as I will go with dairy.

Ok so crazy today I have started putting butter and coconut oil in my tea it's gonna take some getting use to but i'm gonna do it. I also went to out to lunch for the first time in 6 weeks with a friend of mine.... all I seemed to want to eat was a big fat steak so I did!!!! Yay for me!!! But I am so scared about going…

You guys are great and are keeping me going. I just feel like a five month pregnant woman my weight is all in my belly. I have notice my ring size is changing... LOL.

So here is another question for ya'll. I have been doing Keto for a month now and I am down 14 lbs. but when I measure myself I am not losing inches..... what's up with that? Also funny story today... I went to the Dr. last week to get blood work done and talk about my diet since my kidney's are a little off. My Dr. did…

Oh ok that sounds good. I was not doing that I was only sometimes having to adjust 10-15 grams.

That was my other question you guys..... I know what happens when you go over on your protein but what happens when you go over on your fat?

Hello Miss Christine_72! I do have a scale and I do measuring and i'm doing it correctly as far as I know. I have started added butter to my coffee which is really strange for me, so that I can add more cal. I have never been one to eat a lot of fat or cal. I use to drink a lot of diet pepsi. But that has gone out of my…

tell me how I am not hungry!

I'm 162 and want to get down to around 135. I am not eating 800 cause I want to, I'm just not hungry.

I am cut out my wine and it made a huge difference. I am only doing 15 carb. So see how it goes with no wine first. I set my macros at 66% f 5% carbs and the protein and it's working for me. My cals. are at 1200

Thanks you guys. I went to Atkins and put in what I have been eating and my net carbs are way under. So I can eat way more veggies!!!!!YAY for Maggie!!!!! ; ) Happy girl. Thanks for all the help, you guys are great!

When I record a half a red pepper that is 5 carbs. That is a third of what I can eat all day. Same with cucumbers. yikes....... so if I eat them together there sure isn't enough for supper. ; (

Does MFP count net carbs. if not how do I do it?

I understand what it like to be heavy when your use to being thinner. two years ago I was 130 today I am 160 as much as I was 9 months pregnant yikes!!!! So I get it. I don't see anything wrong with your goal. I'm doing the something. I'm at 1200 but I am doing low carb high fat and it seems to be working. I can barely get…

I would love to know all your tips and advice! please share!

I don't understand, like what kinds of food?

Thanks ya'll , this has been a lot of help. I am use to farmers market and fresh fish and meat markets. I will just learn to do better. I only have 75$ a month to spend so it has been challenging. But thanks for all the help. I'll keep you posted. ; )
