Less carbs = more fat :bigsmile:

Thanks for the request. Hopefully someone can offer us some advice on the food diary thing!!!

Hi, yes I've decided to give it a try from this week too as I love low carb living but I really miss being able to exercise like a crazy person so I think this will be good for my needs. Not sure how I am going to work the plan into my MFP diary though yet to be honest - without changing the goals each and every day :huh:

:laugh: :laugh:

You are totally right of course. If I read all that stuff yesterday when I was in keto I would have still felt "meh" at the thought of cooking it all (even though it's minimal) but now the thought of making those things makes my mouth water!! I think I might just need to keep my carbs up to 50g so I can maintain my…

Tricky isn't it!! What would suit me is if we could just click a button to refuel when we need it....... instead of these stupid subject blurred lines of hunger...... Will see what this next week brings xx

lol - Ongoing Weight Loss, it's a stage of Atkins you move to once you have completed induction and lost a decent amount of weight. Or did you know that and are just being silly?? :laugh:

Meeeeeeeeee!! :heart: :bigsmile:

I guess the old weekend crap that I used to fill my face with, pizza, curry, mexican. I know I can get a keto fix of all of these but it requires cooking and not many of those recipes are freezable. Those which are I tend to live on during the week. What stuff do you treat yourself to on a weekend? I am quite happy with my…

Brilliant advice , these are my weekday staples but could you imagine, hubby suggested steak tonight and I was just so not fussed? Sometimes I think keto would be easier if I just lived on shakes because I completely lose interest in food! I am looking to pick my exercise up more this week so maybe the OWL approach would…

I can totally recommend the foo yung (you can get chicken, beef, prawn or mixed meat), which is basically a chinese omelette. It tastes like egg fried rice without the rice and I pour a little satay sauce over the top. Delish! It's not complete keto friendly but I think it's the best damage limitation that you will find! :)

We seem to be in the same boat!!! I also broke a little on my second weekend and mostly because of husband and son eating all the devil's food around me. The sooner you get back to it the sooner you'll get back in to K. I managed not to gain anything but I hadn't lost on my second week either which is just pathetic really.…

I am preparing to restart LCHF after a long period of trying to lose weight the conventional way. My plan is to try and incorporate paleo philosophy into my intake and eat whole and organic foods wherever possible. However, I love my cheese and there are a lot of whole foods that I can't eat unless it's drenched in…

I get bloated if I eat too many carbs and it's not because I 'upped' them it's because my body just doesn't respond well to them. Even oats and wholegrains, my middle just swells and I retain water like crazy. For me 50g to 100g of carbs daily is necessary for losing weigh. I don't subscribe to the low fat, high carb way…

I have a similiar problem. I was fairly sure I had ME but the Dr was convinced it was a depression because of my history. Lazy diagnosing if you ask me but oh well. Anyway I won't say I don't binge any more, this week I've felt completely wiped out and that made me feel low mentally and this weekend I just binged on crap.…

Modern Family Friends IT Crowd

I am thinking about deleting it because I find myself watching other people's lives and moping about how much better they have it than me. Such an unhealthy feeling I know. I see them out enjoying their slim figures, rich husbands, exciting holidays, high achieving kids...... now these feelings aren't so bad as the fact…

I quit a heavy smoking habit 3 years ago using the medication champix eventually did it for me. The problem i faced was that each unsuccessful attempt to quite i gained a stone (14lbs) and by the time i actually managed it i was 5 stone heavier. The most important thing i can advise is that you can allow your self a…

I go to slimming world because there is an element of listening to your body and tuning in to when to eat and when not to eat. I find that calorie counting leads me to think I can eat crap all day so long as I stick within my cal limit - slimming world encourages you to fill up on free (healthy ) food and only count and…

:laugh:

My diary is open and I'm always looking for new buddies :bigsmile:

Hey I'm really sorry to hear of your loss ((hugs)) Feel free to add me :)

:laugh: This!

Hiya, I am joining up to slimming world on monday. I've tried it tiwce before but just found all the cooking so time consuming! I am determined not to be a conveniance queen though and calorie counting although it is basic maths enables me to eat an awful lot of crap for my cal limit lol. I'm a bit nervous as I'm going…

My dad lives in Yorkshire does that count? :laugh: :bigsmile:

:laugh: yes I do .... I might try washing it with conditioner but my hair gets greasy really quick so I try to use as little conditioner as possible. I might just shave it all off!! :grumble: :laugh:

I have to wash my hair daily because I can't stand the smell of sweaty hair! :grumble:

me too :/ I often imagine what it feels like to die....in all sorts of horrible ways!

I work pizza and booze into my weekly eats because I know I can't live without them, or rather I can but I don't want to and this will make me (and has many times) break my diet. Today I have eaten 3000 cals but after 1 hour of zumba and 1 hour of Body Balance my net cals today are just over 2000 which is still very…

Dammit!! I read this thread and gained 7lbs :sad: :sad:
