Keto Carbs
Hi there! I have recently started Keto - my start weight was at 213.1 and instantly lost 8 lbs of bloat (within the first 2 days) and the scale hasn't budged at all. I am eating around 1500 calories a day, tracking everything, and am just wondering if I have my macros calculated wrong? I am at 10% carbs, 60% fat, and 30%…

Effecting my relationship
I have gained 30 pounds since I started dating my boyfriend last year. Both of us became extremely comfortable with one another, and basically let go of ourselves. I have been in and out of being committed to my weight loss, and want to get going again because it's really taking a toll on our relationship. I don't feel…

my nose BLEW UP
So, I have gained a mass amount of weight over the past 2-3 years... and when I say mass, I mean 60 pounds. It's weird because I was looking at pictures on my facebook, and jeez did my nose get HUGE! Did something similar to this happen to anyone else when they gained weight? I'm back to working on myself, but I want this…

That wonderful feeling...
Two weeks ago I stepped on the scale, looked at myself in the mirror, and realized it was MY time for change. I haven't looked back since. I have strayed from complex carbs, soda, processed foods.. basically all the crap I used to put in my body. I wake up Monday-Friday at 4:30am to get my day started and to be at the gym…

Quit smoking AND trying to lose weight?
I recently decided that my health was far more important than a cigarette. So, I'm on day 3 without a single drag. It may not sound like much to those of you who are non-smokers, but to me... it's a huge step in the right direction. The problem I'm having is that I'm on Nicoderm CQ (patches) and for some reason I feel…

How accurate do you think gym equipment is?
I have been logging my calories burned solely based off of what the equipment at my gym tells me. How accurate do you really think those machines are? I input my weight, height, and age and ALWAYS keep my hands on the heart rate monitor to try and get the most accurate reading. What do you think? Should I reduce the amount…

Living with an unhealthy eater
So, I have been trying to change my lifestyle for the past 4 months now and it seems nearly impossible. I work in an office for 8 hours a day (which the only physical activity I get at work is walking to and from the printer... pathetic, I know) I bring healthy lunches, and eat a healthy breakfast every morning, but when I…

But, I love beer!
I have been SO incredibly motivated during the week. I work out, eat healthy, and stick to my routine. But when the weekend comes around, I tend to get side tracked and I gain ALL of the weight I lost that week. I go out with my friends on the weekends and drink but I shouldn't gain ALL my weight back, should I? I mean, we…

Need to lose weight fast!
I know, I know. It took time to put on the weight, and it will take time to get it off. But I'm going to my home town, Phoenix, in April and I really would like to lose 20 pounds by then without doing it the unhealthy way. Any suggestions?!
