Hi guys, Can anyone from that group message me so I can find out why I was kicked from the facebook group? If I offended anyone I appologise but I'd been a member for a long time and helped alot of people and was kicked with no communication whatsoever.

Cholesterol Question
Okay, so I've been Keto for 2 years now. I'm female, 32kg less than I was at my heaviest (still 19kg overweight). At least I'm overweight now and not obese. In this time I've had a few blood tests for other unrelated issues, and they have all come back perfect, except for one thing. The last two times (mid last year, and a…

Ugh ... so much hassle.
So, I've been Keto for about 2 years. I've read everything there is to read, tried everything there is to try over that time. My diet is clean, I don't do bars, artificial sweeteners, fake baked goods, dairy (other than butter), I drink my damn water, I take my magnesium/potassium, I've dropped my calories from 1900 (where…

The little things ...
My lovely husband bought home a little terracotta pot of artichoke, parmesan and chilli dip from the shops for me. He said "you can eat it, I checked the label". Bless him, I've taught him to read carbs per 100g :) He was right, I can eat it, and it's delish. 40 cals and 0.7g carbs per 30g serving. I ended up halving an…

So hungry now, how do people do it.
So I've dropped my calories from 1900 a day to 1550 a day. 70% fat, 24% protein and 5% carbs. Not eating any artificial stuff, drinking water, blah blah. You'd think I'd be losing a bit more weight (more than 22lbs in 8 months). I'm not. I weigh exactly the same as I did 3 weeks ago. And I'm so hungry all the time now.…

"Ladies only" discussion, help appreciated
I've done some research on Keto and menstruation and all of the literature I've found has mentioned "irregular periods" as in less, not more. Keto can be like starvation in women, upsetting hormones and causing a reduction or even complete stop in menstrual bleeding. There is an argument that some women require more carbs…

Sausages
We eat sausages often enough, those nice ones like the italian beef sausages that the butcher makes which he assures me have no fillers in them (they look like they're all meat). I also read labels on everything before I eat it and put it into my diary. This week I grabbed some "Lean Beef Gluten Free Italian Chipolatas"…

Keto becoming really restrictive
Okay, I've done Keto for most of last year, and then since February this year. I've done all the reading, I'd consider myself a seasoned veteran. However lately my diet has become incredibly restrictive. Mainly because I am not losing weight. I was previously losing weight on 1900 calories (I'm still 97kg so I'm not close…

Problems with heat Keto related?
Let me just preface by saying I've ridden horses for 30+ years, rain hail or shine, including in the middle of summer and never had a problem with the heat. Yesterday morning was moderately hot, 31 degrees (88F). We rode for our normal hour and a half. I was hotter than usual pretty much the whole time. By the time we got…

Elliptical Trainer - General Question
I use this thing sometimes when I can't get outside to exercise. My question is, does it matter if I do say 3 x 10 minutes throughout the day or one 30 minute session? Is there any negatives or positives to either or does it work out the same?

Other Groups
Why are they all so angry? I joined the FitBit group, because, well, I have a FitBit. But it seems to be the same thing as the main forums, everyone is so angry and critical of anyone who posts. If you dare mention a failing of the FitBit then you're doing it wrong or expecting too much. If you mention you're not losing…

Dinner
Last night I had some chicken breasts (they've been cheap lately) and I didn't know what to do with them (we eat them often). I found a packet of Masterfoods Carbonara Recipe Base in the cupboard (AUS - designed for making pasta) and was surprised to see it only had 3g of carbs per serve and only like 80 cals for the whole…

Looking for Recipe - Dinner - to be reheated
I'm going to my Dad's on Sunday, it's his birthday. He normally makes food for us, and it's normally something with bread or pasta. He does like low carb food though, just can't really sustain it on his budget. He's also diabetic. And he knows I eat low carb. So ... I'm looking for something really good I can cook the day…

Fitbit Charge HR
Does anyone have one of these? What do you think of it? Does it sync easily with MFP? I GOT RID OF MY Jawbone UP after months of trying to get it to sync with no luck.

Fitbit Charge HR
Who uses one of these? Pros/cons? Do they sync effectively with MFP? I got rid of my Jawbone UP because it wouldn't sync no matter what I tried.

Cheeseburger Pie
I am making this for dinner tonight. My non-keto OH demanded it when he saw the recipe. In fact he said "why aren't you in the kitchen making that RIGHT NOW (at 11pm lol).

Are you actually hungry or is it something else?
Right, so, I did Keto for most of last year. Stuff happened this year, but I'm finally back eating keto again. It works for me in regards to losing weight, but I could NEVER get to that spot others talk about where they are simply not hungry or don't feel like eating. I'm on about 1800 cals, and I count every single one of…

Any of you long term Keto people want to be my MFP friend?
So, I have exactly 0 MFP friends, my home page is lonely. About me: I live in South Australia. I'm 40, I have a partner and between us we have a few kids (none of whom live at home) and a 2yo grandchild. I'm a pretty experienced Ketoer. I have a horse. And beautiful tropical fish. I work in an office. I have a sarcastic…

Where did my post go?
I posted the other day "is it hunger, or something else" in relation to taking an antacid etc. The post is gone. If I click on "My Discussions" I have 0 discussions. Where is my POST. On another note, this morning I forgot to take my Magnesium/Heart Burn Pill/Voltaren and now I have a headache, I'm starving hungry and my…

Anyone in the US want to mail me some Moon Cheese?
I've seen this stuff pop up on my Facebook Keto feed more than once and it makes me sad. I NEED DIS ... and you can't buy it in Australia. :(
