Someone who hasn't seen me since February of 2014 had to do a double take when they saw me today in the supermarket! They couldn't believe how much weight I have lost. Makes you feel good.

Just about every morning.

People who have done LCHF for a while used to tell just to keep my carbs below 50 grams a day and not worry about calories. That worked for a while, I lost 40 pounds and then I had a very long plateau. Now I keep my calories at 1200 a day in order to keep losing weight. I still need to lose another 90 pounds. I'm convinced…

It's an absolutely gorgeous, sunny day in Kansas, with an expected high of only 73 degrees. And I'm smoking two 8 pound pork shoulders with apple wood. I predict pulled pork in my immediate future! B)

I picked up the nickname moon growing up in Philly. Originally it was "moondoggie" which I got from a character in one of those 60's beach movies. But I grew tired of being called "dog" for short, so I shortened it to moon instead. One wild and crazy night at college, I gave myself and all of my friends Roman names. Mine…

I have enjoyed kombucha for years and started making my own in 2008. But when I began eating low carb, I was concerned about the carb content from all the sugar used in the fermenting process. People say that the sugar is eaten up by the scoby but I wasn't so sure, so I haven't had any kombucha for quite some time. I do…

I was born and raised in Philly. Spent 30 years working in Christian radio all over the United States. Currently I pastor a church in Abilene, KS (home of President Eisenhower). Thank God the weather is about to change. Should be in the 70's starting tomorrow.

Way to go Danno! Welcome to the club!

I can binge on nuts and cheese. Too much of a good thing is still too much!

Thanks @newmeadow for the link that shows how to make lard and cracklins. I will definitely try that. I live in a small Kansas town but the local supermarket will save pork fat for you, if you just ask for it.

Thanks wheatlessgirl66!

Thanks for the support and encouragement everybody! Here's a pic taken after today's workout.

My highest weight was 380. I weighed 284 at the end of 2014. Today I weigh 263 but don't have any current pics.

Feel free to add me.

Bone-in Ribeye or Bone-in Porterhouse

@FIT_Goat : Thanks for the props Goat. @Bebe6740 : I still track my food but not religiously. My daily goals are 2000 calories, 70% fat, 25% protein, 5% carbohydrates.

Thanks for the link. I will look for them next time I'm at Whole Foods.

Started Atkins in 2008 at 380, lost 40 pounds. Restarted July 2014 on keto and now I weigh 271.

Check out The Blue Moose. There are several locations in the Kansas City area. They have some low carb options on the menu. I actually like going to Logan's and getting their 20 ounce bone in Ribeye steak. They also have a bone in Porterhouse steak. You can't go wrong with steak.

You can add me too.

I stalled for 4 months until I dropped my carbs to less than 20 grams daily. Since then I have lost 15 pounds.

I gave up sugar last year and this year I gave up AS and stevia. No longer do I have a sweet tooth!

Nuts are my kryptonite. I have a hard time eating just one serving, so I don't eat them often.
