Go riding..

New friends welcome, the more support the better!

Our stats are very close, feel free to add me too :)

Is eating Mediterranean style considered clean?

Ready to do this! Is there a spreadsheet? I started at 205 and currently at 194. Its been a very slow process for me since I have no control on the weekends. I'm ready to commit, but I have another block in a couple weeks (headed to Hawaii) Well, I would still like to be at 175 by the first of the year. Big goal for me!

Yep

yes

Flavored Vodka with Sobee water (same flavor as the vodka) or mix it up. Make sure to use the zero calorie Sobee.. At least you are getting in your water at the same time~

I weigh every day same time, naked but only log a loss. If I gain, I don't want a bunch of cudo's for weight loss that I already lost, so I make sure I stay the same until I lose again.

No, I wasn't referring to you, but thanks for all the info, good to know!

Ok, just figured out the quote thing before I saw your post. However, it would take a lot for me to ever report someone. I was trying to make light of the reply, not being mean spirited. Obviously there are a lot of snarky comments here...

Lol, you're right, I think I just was! (two above)

I'm no expert, but any time you cut out certain amounts or different kinds of foods you will end up losing faster. When you quit carbs your body goes into ketosis and then it goes directly to burning fat. I hear a lot people say their cholesterol and blood pressure get better. I've been trying it for 3 weeks and did OK…

Yams are very orange in color inside and make a great sweet potato casserole ironically.. The sweet potato inside looks just like a regular potato coloring, maybe a tad darker. I use yams at thanksgiving, etc. I use sweet potatoes and throw one or two in my potato salad and always get so many compliments because the hint…

Average size is acceptable, but no oral.. oh heck no~

I tried to do this once and just ended up drinking Vodka with Sobee water instead.. Now i just try to drink a lot less which works for me, but i still think the weight would come off faster if i didn't drink at all. Oh well, there could be worse things! Maybe I'll try the challenge. All you folks are a lot like me, friend…

I started over again too.. Not the first or second, but many times. I feel this may be different this time, but time will tell. I have never been successful, at least you know you can do this!

Finally, an interesting thread! Add me if you like~

I set my carbs at 10% which give me 30, but I try to stay closer to 20 or under. My protein and fat are at an even 45%. I keep my calories at 1200 which is low, but I always go over, and make up for it with exercise! It's all about what makes you feel comfortable.

I got a good laugh when I read someone eating mayo right out of the jar.. I love mayo and the thought still gags me, lol! This weekend was very difficult for me. You would think the first week would be the easiest, but I did the unthinkable and drank wine out and had champagne on Sunday. Ugh.. I didn't eat any bad food at…

Feel free to add me, I have 70 to lose (big picture) no pun intended. Just rejoined Monday

What is Keto? Does it have to do with keto sticks? (Atkins?)

feel free to add me, or I'll just add you to make it more easy on ya~ I like making new friends too since I just rejoined this week. We can help each other!

I never knew about the counting net carbs thing.. I always just counted total carbs and I always end up at 30. I'm only 4 days in for Atkins even though I originally joined mfp years ago. Decided to try again, then got motivated to do Atkins by my cousin. I cant weight, oops, I mean wait to weigh in on Monday and see my…

What does "following" mean or do?
