  • Working out makes me feel better than not working out. Although I do think weight lifting hinders my loss. I'm probably losing inches but I'm more concerned with the number on the scale. I have started jogging and the weight comes off quicker when I do that. I have a lot of fat and I know some people can lose weight…
  • Try going keto. If you want to talk message me.
  • I know how you feel. My husbands trying to gain weight. He's eating 3000 calories while I'm over here with my 1200. Right now he eats whatever he wants at work. He knows that's when it won't bother me and he supports me enough to do that for me. I just had to tell him it's kind of like someone with a drinking problem. You…
  • I'm trying to eat more but it's hard since I'm not hungry. I actually forced myself to eat dinner last night.
  • Besides weight gain I love keto. I don't feel sluggish at all. You know how the saying goes different strokes for different folks. Keto definitely isn't for everyone. Honestly 2 weeks isn't enough time to know if it's for you though. I'd at least give it a month.
  • Ive been at this steady for about two months. It used to be a struggle to get out of the house some days. One day I decided to try something crazy and go low carb. My life has been changed. I know this will sound silly but I haven't been depressed and I've even stopped smoking without trying I just don't crave it anymore.…
  • What's your workout like? I wasn't losing like I wanted to and kicked my workouts into high gear and managed to lose a pound a day. I also stopped using any low cal sweeteners. Im not sure if that's something you use a lot of but if you do maybe try cutting that out? I just have to keep reminding myself any loss is better…
  • My first keto period was horrible. It was almost enough to make me quick the whole thing. I made it through. I had heavy bleeding and cravings like crazy. Well just had my second keto period and I had light bleeding and it only lasted about three days. No cravings and no crazy mood swings like I usually have. Hopefully it…
  • I had a fun size pack of peanut m&ms won't lie they were great but that was enough for me. I never was a sweet eater but I love nuts and chocolate.
  • I know people won't agree with this but it's what's working for me. I try to keep my calories under a certain amount I know technically I can have 1400 but I limit myself to 1200 and if I feel I need a treat I'll go up to the 1400 and not feel bad about it. You'll notice your not very hungry. I usually skip breakfast now…
  • Ahh definitely didn't mean what I said in a rude way. I'm glad you told me!!!
  • Thanks Deaddad101 I fixed it and it had more carbs than I'd like to have consumed but hey still better than what I used to eat. I'll definitely start paying attention more to that.
  • Oh my first keto period sucked. The cravings were horrible and I caved. One thing that helps me are coco almonds. For a serving it's 4 carbs and they are so good. I try to look at them as my little candy treat.
  • 5'2 219 pounds. I'm not sure what my goal is.
  • Okay I'm 5'2 207 pounds. I wake up and walk withy son we do an hr and I burn about 300 calories from that. I go to the gym at night and do the elliptical for 2 hours. That's where all my calorie burn comes from. I do lift weights but nothing major. I thought I was eating a good diet. I snack of fruit and sometimes yogurt.
  • I don't have a heart rate monitor I just go off what the machine says I burned. I've been drinking a meal replacement shake in the morning and having salad for lunch and I'll have spinach broccoli and some meat for dinner. The meat is weighed out. I don't weigh the veggies.
  • I'm 5'1 I weighted in this morning at 207. I'm not sure what my goal weight is but I assume 130 would do for me. I would love to have more friends to keep me motivated and I'd like to help motivate anyone who may need it. Feel free to add me.
  • I love PF. I had a membership at LA Fitness and the last time I worked out there I left crying because a couple of guys thought it was okay to make fun of me because I wasn't sure what I was doing and I'm fat. It made me never want to visit the gym again. I now workout at PF and I have no problems and if I see someone…
