Can I Vent?
Ok so I got into an accident early last month. Was told to halt all physical activity(suffered a back and hip injury) until I started Physical Therapy. During that down time I gained about 7 lbs(went from 183 back up to 190

Low Carb Dining Out
One of the many great things about low carb is that there are so many options when it comes to dining out. I wanted to start a thread for places and tips when eating out. Feel free to add any places that you know of that have low carb options. Hardee's - only because I'm eating one right now, but they have a Low Carb thick…

Daily Anxiety Attacks
I've been having terrible anxiety attacks since the first of the year. I decided to go vegan and cut out sugar, alcohol, and cut back on bread. Could this be a symptom of withdrawal? Before I was eating candy and drinking daily. I'm ashamed to say, but I was drinking almost a bottle of liquor or wine almost everyday for 4…

Anxiety and Fitbit
So I log in and my steps and calories burned for today update. 4,764 steps taken and 693 CALORIES BURNED! I'm thinking to myself there's no way that can be right. I'm a (newly licensed) hairstylist and I'm on my feet at the salon all day. I understand the step count because I'm running around, but I'm iffy about the…

Only eating twice a day
I work in an industry where I rarely get to eat at work. I try to get a good breakfast and a green smoothie in before work but I don't end up eating anything else until I get home(6-8 hours later). I don't pig out once I get home tho. Will this effect my weight loss? Will I stop losing by eating like this?

Sugar NOT effecting my weight loss?
I have a confession. Well it's more of a fun fact. For the past 8 years I've worked at a CANDY STORE! Half of that time has been part time since it's a seasonal job but 8 years nonetheless. During that time I've manage to lose and gain weight, during the season and off season. A perk of the job is that we can eat whatever…

I have NO ENERGY!!!!
Idk what's going on but ever since I've started Keto I've had literally no energy! I'm relying on energy drinks(Spike specifically because it's 0 carbs) and B12 shots just to get out of bed. I used to workout 5-6 times a week but I barely get 2 days in a week now. All I do, unless I'm at work or meal planning, is SLEEP! Do…

Looking for support so I don't fail...again
Every time I start a new weight loss regime I always end up falling off. I don't want to fail this time! I never really had support or anyone to push me in my weight loss journey when I hit a low point or wanted to cheat on my diet. I've had more people tell me to go ahead and have that donut, or 1 slice of cake won't…

How high can I go and still hit ketosis?
I did a Keto Calculator earlier this week and it said that my recommended daily carbs should be 25g. I just finished lunch and I'm at 34g. My carb % is still kinda low at 17% but on a day like today how high can I go without extending how long it will take me to hit Ketosis?
