Hair Loss and Collagen
I’ve been on keto for about 7 months and my hair has really started to fall out, every time I shower there’s a good amount of hair sitting on the drain when I’m through. It’s gotten to the point that I’ve really noticed my hair thinning out. I like my thick hair, and as vain as it may sound, I’m getting married later this…

YouTube and Online Resources for Weight Lifting
I’ve had a gym membership and have been consistently going to several months. I really enjoy group fitness classes and try to make it to at least one a week, but with my work schedule and the class schedules, it’s next to impossible. Also, I’m not a fan of cardio, I get so bored.. So a typical day at the gym for me is:…

Traveling Keto
I’m out of town all weekend for a wedding and I’m a little nervous. I’m trying my best to stay on plan—I’ve decided I’m only going to be strict on carbs this weekend, but allow myself to go over on calories if need be. Everyone other time I’ve been trying to lose weight, when I go on a trip, I just eat whatever I want. Not…

Ketone Test Strips
So despite the controversy about whether or not to use ketone test strips... I decided to pick some up while I was at Walmart tonight. It was really a curiosity thing. I started Keto about 3 weeks ago and never got “Keto flu” or feel like I have any signs of ketosis. I’ve been really good about tracking and staying within…

Does MFP count total or net carbs
The title says it all. I’m not sure if I should just look at my carb count on MFP, or if I should open up the more in-depth nutrition information and subtract fiber. I’m sure this info is on here somewhere, but my searches aren’t coming up with it. Thank you!

Easing myself in to it, having a hard time with protein
So I would eventually like to go full Keto, but have eaten so many carbs in the past, I decided to ease myself in to it. I’m currently trying to eat about 12% carbs (which comes out to 44g). I’ve had a hard time staying at/under 44g and I’m not eating any obvious carbs such as sugar, bread, pasta, etc. On top of that, I’m…

4th time’s the charm?
I’m 25 years old, here for about the 4th time (😔). I work night shift as a nurse, so i have a unique schedule/lifestyle. It’s hard to say no to those late night food runs. I have about 125 pounds to lose. I’m getting married, so now I have good motivation. I’ll have to go wedding dress shopping in about 6 months (pushing…

New Here.... Again
This isn't my first time on MFP, I've been here a couple times. This last time I lost 45 pounds, but fell off the wagon and gained 30 back. But here I am, back on the wagon and determined to stay this time. My friends are always motivating and great, so if you're looking for more friends, add me! Anyone who is going to…
