What kinds of positive effects have you experienced from being on keto?
Hi, I just started keto last Tuesday and I am honestly loving it so far, this diet has been so doable and I don't feel deprived at all! Since I am new though, I'm not sure what other positive effects I could possibly experience and would love to hear from others! So far I've experienced my eczema clearing up a bit…

Fasting to correct autoimmune diseases??
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2016/03/12/fasting-for-three-days-can-regenerate-entire-immune-system-study/ As for someone who suffers from severe eczema and alopecia areata (progressed to universalis last year) since a child I'm always trying to find a way to help heal it since visiting numerous doctors have never…

Open diary, active & motivational friends needed
Hello everyone, after a year completely away from this site, I've unfortunately gained quite a bit back. I've lost nearly 40 lbs in the past, but slowly gained it all back so it's time to focus and get back on track. A little about myself: My name is Brenna, but you can call me Bre :smile: I'm a 26 year old girl, turning…

Shelf life of cooked chicken?
Hi, I just wanted to get some opinions on the shelf life of cooked chicken. I have 6 chicken breasts that I kind of want to prepare all in one go so that I won't have to do it every night for dinner, I would eat one of them tonight so they'd technically only be refrigerated for 5 days until I eat all of them. I read…

Favorite high calorie meal/snack?
I'm having my first weekend coming up where I am going to log, a little nervous about how difficult this might be but I already pre-logged something I know that I will be getting. S'mores cheesecake from the cheesecake factory that comes in at a whopping 1,490 calories which is 70 calories over my calorie intake goal for…

Measure food before or after it's cooked?
So I bought myself a food scale that I'm really starting to love, but yesterday I measured a sweet potato (170g raw) and then out of curiosity, I measured it again after being baked in the microwave and it ended up weighing less. (122g cooked, if I remember correctly on both measurements) Tonight I am making ground turkey…

3 Weeks in, already hit a plateau?
I started working out on June 6th, using only the elliptical for 40 mins from Tuesday to Friday, but the following Monday I started adding circuit training to the mix. Within the first week of just using the elliptical I dropped 4lbs, but for the last two weeks I've hit a plateau. I've been working out Mon-Fri, elliptical…

Gluten Free?
It's interesting, I've been almost entirely gluten free for two weeks and my eczema is almost completely gone. I also suffer from alopecia universalis and asthma, both auto immune and seeing if those start to subside as well. I wasn't 100% perfect, I did have some gluten on the weekends and actually ended up paying dearly…

Fighting depression & trying to get back on track
I lost 30 lbs last year but gained it all back, (5'3" female, currently 179lbs) depression hit because of health issues, especially alopecia universalis (I'm a bald girl) causing more body issues, and other personal issues. I think depression has got to be one of the toughest things that keeps people from sticking with it,…

Enough cals or protein, first time lifter?

Snacks you thought would be DISGUSTING, but ended up loving
I found out that I guess only rice cakes can make cardboard tastes really good when they just sprinkle a little cheese on it. I also HATED cottage cheese as a kid but now trying it again as an adult, I could eat it out of the container lol

Marry One Food, Divorce For Another
If you had to marry one food, the one that you love the most, but might be wanting to divorce for another, what would your choice be? I think I'd want to marry buffalo chicken but then end up divorcing for raspberry filled chocolate because let's be real here, sometimes that sweet tooth is the strongest craving you'll ever…

Terrible Package Delivery Stories
So I ordered a gaming computer for myself for Christmas from Best Buy, which wasn't supposed to be delivered until Dec 6. Both the monitor and tower came today while nobody was home, it was unsigned for, left outside in the front in it's original box (no extra protection) for everyone to see. Guess I'll find out later…

BBQ Cookout Etiquette??
Wanted an opinion from others-- So a friend of mine hosts a big BBQ every year for 30+ people that will be tomorrow and he requested people bring side dishes. There are two people that I talked to on separate occasions and it kind of blew my mind when they said that if they brought a side dish to share, if there were any…

Friends in 20's???

Food for thought...
It's been said that if you ever saw an exact clone of yourself in public, you wouldn't recognize that it was you. They say you view yourself differently from how others see you... makes me question if I look at myself way bigger than I actually am and for some reason take an odd comfort in that but either way, fully loving…

Would you allow phones during a dinner date?
Whether it's a first date or a long term relationship Me personally, I find it to be rude to be checking Facebook when you're trying have conversation and be with someone when the other person is more focused on connecting with anyone besides you. Not something that I'm actually dealing with myself, more or less interested…
