Thank goodness for _________ on this way of eating (WOE)...
Shirataki noodles! (AKA Miracle Noodles). I love, love, love noodles in all their glorious forms but being so carb-laden I had to avoid them. But since Shirataki noodles are almost entirely carb-free, I can once again enjoy making keto-versions of some of my fave dishes again! What food are you glad you discovered on this…

Things you say when you lead a Keto lifestyle...
Just wanted to spread some sunshine and thought "Hey- what are the funny things people say when they're eating keto?" I'll start: (at home) "We need to go and get more heavy cream and bacon!!! There's only 1 carton of cream and we're down to 3 packs of bacon- let's move!!!" and go :)

What's your activity or exercise?
Hi All, just thought I'd post something so we can all get to know each other a bit better :) So what's your exercise? (or if you don't/can't exercise, what's your go-to activity?) Why do you love it so? I'll start: I love running! (which is curious bc I'm heavy so it's like watching an asthmatic ox clopping along! :smiley:…

Eat Any Calories Back
Hi All, Happy Sunday! So I am about 2 weeks in to eating keto and am wondering for those who exercise while on keto, do you eat any of your calories back? Or are you going by the keto calculators where you input your average daily activity so you don't have to fuss about calculating what to eat back? For those who are…

It makes you just a little "ragey" when you hear...
- People say that I'm going to have a heart attack eating like this (even though I'm dropping lbs and inches) - People say that they're working towards a healthy lifestyle and then they bring out the low-fat high-carb options - the resident diabetic in the office go on and on and about how she's been struggling with her…

Weekly Weigh Ins??
Hi everyone, just wanted to know if anyone is interested in participating in a weekly weigh in? I was thinking of posting it under the announcements on Monday and closing it Friday (to accommodate people who weigh in at various days during the week); every week a new announcement would go up to keep track of what we've…

What are your fave keto staples in the kitchen?
Mine are bacon and eggs; I can have them together, separate , they're easy to cook and best of when combined correctly they make deviled eggs with nice bacony filling! In fact I will be making some deviled eggs today so I have meals for tomorrow! How about you? What keeps your kitchen locked, stocked and appropriately keto?

What will be your "Goliath" today?
Not sure if anyone else is facing this with summertime but the fair has arrived in town. Normally I skip it bc the fair is nothing but a money grab ($15 just to walk the grounds?!?!) But my nephew really wanted to go with my dad and I so we are lacing up and going to the fair where my role will be to watch them have fun…

Training- enough time to prep for my 1st marathon?
|Hi All, Happy Tuesday! Here's the scenario: I run at least 3x a week (3-4 miles on average), I trained for and ran a 1/2 marathon this past April 2015 and loved feeling so accomplished so now I'm thinking of aiming for a full marathon (also there are no other halfs coming up in my area until May of 2016) So if I take on…

Happily Starting Fresh
Hi All, So I just came back from a fabulous honeymoon in Europe and wouldn't you know it, eating schnitzel, potatoes, cheese, every baked item we could, twice-daily croissants, sweets galore and drinking ALL the beer in sight for 3 weeks has led to some slight weight gain... :) (15 pounds to be exact) Also, just prior to…

New and looking for friends!
Hi All, I'm new to MFP, I am a runner (training for my first half marathon this April!), and am easing myself into eating clean (with some hints of paleo, though I don't consider myself a truly paleo eater- curse you non-fermented dairy that gives me such trouble!!) and would love some new MFP friends for support :) Happy…

New to MFP- looking for friends
Hi Everyone, I'm new to MFP and am looking for some friends. Here's a bit about me: - I LOVE to run; unfortunately I currently fall in the category of heavy runner bc I was waaaay overestimating my calories burned and eating even more back. (but have since done the math properly and now feel like I actually have an idea of…
