Take progress pics!
I do not feel much different, or even see it in the mirror. But when I put 2 pictures beside eachother, I see major differences! And I've only lost 14lbs so far. I feel like I might need skin removal, because of how my skin is going down further. But still going to keep going! Mildly embarrassing pics but I'm so happy!

Anyone sticking to strict keto?
I'm at 8 days on keto. I don't have absolutely any sugar or breads etc, obviously. But I don't allow myself nuts or any fruit either. I don't like them anyways, so I figure why bother. Oh and I allow myself one coffee with heavy cream and sweetener a day. I don't even drink my favourite thing anymore, diet coke. Anyone…

For anyone who needs to exercise, but doesn't want to leave the house.
I highly recommend these walking videos on YouTube. I have a baby and it's either extremely hot, or raining outside. I have dropped a lot of weight since starting these. https://youtu.be/njeZ29umqVE

Anyone have kids? How do you feed them?
I have a 7 month old and I'm sitting here feeding him Gerber puffs. They're peach and they smell amazing btw. But I'm at a loss of what to do with food. His dad doesn't follow this WOE at all. And I feel now that sugar is basically poison. But I don't want him to never have treats. What do you do, or would you do?

Atkins bars?
So someone bought me Atkins bars so I wouldn't "feel left out" on Easter... I must say the cheesecake and mini eggs were a bit difficult to pass up. But anyway, I have had one a day now, there's 5 of them. Are they the reason I'm up 4lbs now? I am not over in calories or anything. Hmm.. I thought I could have something…

I had a whoosh!
I know you guys have probably seen me bitching on here the last few weeks. But I finally lost some weight on the scale! 4lbs. My mom insisted I try chia seeds and idk if that's what did it, but something happened at least. Thanks for all your advice and support everyone. I'm at 255 now, down 20lbs from March 4th. I like to…

Question about resetting.
So I've been stuck at the same weight for almost a month. It's really annoying me because I'm sticking to this very strictly. Anyways, I read online and some people suggested a reset, or refeed? I don't want to eat stuff that will make me feel like crap or make me gain water weight. So should I just make today a day that I…

Relying on melatonin
The past couple weeks I've had to take melatonin to fall asleep. Is this diet related? Has anyone else had trouble sleeping at night?

How long do your stalls last?
I've been stalled since week 3, and I'm almost on weeks 6 now. I always eat 1200 to 1300 calories a day, which is a bit more than a 1000 calorie deficit. I'm not hungry for any more than that. And I am almost always under 15 carbs a day. I track meticulously, and I am bouncing around the same 2lbs this whole time. I drink…

Broke the stall!
I lost nothing and went up and down with the same 2lbs for 2ish weeks so I decided to try a fat fast (in my case it was 83% fat and 1000 calories). Well lo and behold, I'm down 2lbs. Going back to my regular stuff now, might gain it back... But I just wanted to see a 5 instead of 6 ;) Do you guys fat fast? Or any other…

Need help
Okay so I'm 25 years old, and I have hashimoto's disease, for reference. I've been on keto since March 4th and I lost 15lbs, yay! But for the past week I've not budged on the scale. And my clothes don't feel any different. I've heard having thyroid problems can hinder weight, but I am following this to the letter. I'm…

Ladies period talk, men can come if they really want lol
So my periods were always super wonky. I could go up to 6 months without one regularly. I don't have PCOS or other uterine problems. I do have hashimoto's. I never went to the doctors, stupidly, because I kind of knew it was because of my weight and they would just bark at me to get off my *kitten*. Well I'm almost 1 month…

Do you eat sausages? And nuts and berries?
I haven't been grocery shopping in a while, but i found some sausages. I scanned the barcode and it said 6 carbs for 2? What is in these things? I ate them anyways because I was starving. Really high fat though so I can eat some chicken and salad later. And I don't really like fruit or nuts but what amount can you eat? If…

1/10th of the way there!
I've been doing this since March 4th, and I even had a slight bump in the road (apple fritters at the market). Not even worth it! Well I've lost 10 lbs now. And I feel better than ever. As someone with hashimoto's disease... And a 6 month old, energy is hard to come by. I feel so stable now. And my stomach doesn't hurt…

Hungry feeling before weight loss..
Been on keto for a few weeks now, lost 8lbs in the first 2 weeks. Nothing since. I haven't had a hunger pang since a few days after I started. I'm having huge ones now. I read online that you should ignore it and eat when the feeling subsides? Because the body is about to drop a couple lbs. Anyone know about this.?

Very anxious about all this... Venting
I've been on keto almost 2 weeks. Very strict, I don't allow anything besides low carb veggies, meat, eggs, cheese. I weighed myself and I'm down 5 lbs. I feel it should have been more, considering how heavy I am. I am 5'6 and 270 lbs now. I have hashimoto's disease and I feel like if I even look at cake I gain 5lbs, but…

Cheat meals?
I've only been doing keto for 2 weeks now. But I'm going to a market that I haven't been to in years. They have delicious carbs everywhere. Basically I'm wondering how bad it would screw me over to eat an apple fritter. Lol. I won't be going back for years likely and I do want to have exception days for special occasions.…

Hello! I'm new here. I started keto a week ago.
I'm 6 months postpartum and I want to lose 100lbs. I've been on keto for a week, and I don't have a scale so I have no idea how it's going. I feel less boosted though. I can't figure out how to make my macros default for every day on this app. When I go to a different day it's set back to the apps default, which is…
