Amazing story, congratulations!

What a fantastic transformation, Felix! Congratulations on changing -- and saving -- your life!!

Great work! I also follow keto and IF (16/8) and I love it! I'm never hungry, and I could easily do OMAD as well. Its amazing how the body adapts.

I'm 100% with you in all your beliefs about marriage. My husband and I were married at 23 and 22 respectively, and are parents of 5 children, coming up on our 22nd anniversary this summer. I love my husband, he loves me, and we will be married until we die. But my primary love language is also Words of Affirmation, and it…

I love the Ross no sugar added bars. Our Walmart sells then in the diabetic section of their pharmacy (Canada). Only 1 carb for the dark chocolate, and it's delish! 3 carbs for the mint chocolate (the only 2 I've tried).

I'm not convinced that's because of the breech. I experienced the same thing for several consecutive days a few months ago, and when I searched the forums, it looked like that was not the first time it had happened.

I had four miscarriages in total -- #1 at 5 weeks, then became pregnant again within about 6 weeks #2 at 12 weeks, then became pregnant again within about 2 months Had babies #1, 2, and 3 over the next 4 years, then #3 at 8 weeks, waited a few months, #4 at 15 weeks (although ultrasound determined baby stopped growing at 7…

Not sure why the quotation marks, but at various times over the years they have eaten steady diets of corn, or layer feed, or free range, and so far it hasn't seemed to affect the peeling.

Sorry, but as a chicken farmer, I very strongly dispute this. There is absolutely no question that the fresher our eggs, the harder they are to peel.

I have tried all the flavours and didn't really care for any of them, nor did my kids, to be honest, and they're not fussy eaters. I found them very icy and not creamy, not really ice-creamy enough. But the Chapman's No Sugar Added lactose-free free stuff I mentioned a while ago is fantastic, totally creamy. It's low carb…

@GoBlue1981 Could you please remove me from the challenge? I have enjoyed my time here (down 17.6 pounds since I joined) but I'm dealing with some issues at home regarding privacy/public posting, so I'm going to bow out. Thanks! :)

@MarieLoms It looks like that is a Canadian gym chain and not very big (only two in all of Ontario) so I wouldn't be surprised if there's not a lot of feedback here. But it looks good to me, FWIW. :)

Oh, and I am also not going to go back to bed "just for a quick snooze" (read: turns into half the morning) when the kids leave for school at 7:00am. I will use that time instead to do my devotions and get on the treadmill...

As a Protestant Christian, I have never observed Lent, as it is not a part of our religious traditions. However, I just did some reading up about it and I think it would serve me well to make both a physical and a spiritual commitment in commemoration of Christ's sacrifice. So for Lent, I will commit to spending one hour…

Well, today I logged 37,107 steps, but that's an exception just because I was determined to take the lead and win a Fitbit challenge, so I was on my treadmill for hours today. :p I usually average 15,000/day. My Fitbit was set to a goal of 10,000/day when I got it in September, I upped it to 12,000/day in December, and…

Have you tried the Leslie Sansone walking videos for an intro to more activity? She has several 1 mile videos on YouTube that you could try out.

Had a fantastic day downhill skiing with the kids today, packed all my own keto food and picked up a burger (no bun) from McDonalds on the way home for dinner. What a change from previous ski days -- it feels great!!

@gatorbob353 Yes, as long as you have posted your weigh-ins and haven't requested to be removed.
