Checking In
Just wanted to pop by and say hello to everyone and let you know I haven't jumped ship. I just needed a break from the interwebz. I have been reading some books I needed to return to the library and working on my genealogy stuff. Then there is house work, regular work and cooking. Feeling very productive. Food is going…

Tell Me About Your Goals For The New Year
So as I was journaling today, I wrote down that I need to get my goals down on paper, what I would like to achieve in the next year. Then I made goals just for January. I don't do New Year's resolutions. I like the word goals better. I will list mine. I kept it to 5 for the year. Simple goals that will yield big results, I…

I Made IT! Totally OT of LCHF
So this has entirely nothing to do with our WOE or anything food related other than I may upchuck my snack of guac and cheese "crackers". I am somewhere in between scared, excited, nervous and shocked. As a lot of you frequent posters(especially on the late night workers posts) know on here, I am a paramedic. My lieutenant…

Craving Fat???
So as it is quickly approaching that dreaded TOM, I have been waiting for those horrible sweet cravings to rear their ugly heads. They are either really tardy or aren't going to show up at all.

First, belt notches, I have one hole left before I am going to have to buy a smaller belt. I have managed to go down two holes since Christmas and the last two are extras I have drilled in…

Anyone know anything about monk fruit?
So after a discussion on another post here about alternatives to diet soda I thought I'd give the Zevia a try if I came across it. I found it and decided on the Dr Zevia (it's not bad but no Dr Pepper) flavor since I am a Diet Dr Pepper fanatic. On the ingredients I noticed monk fruit extract. A little of Dr Google and I…

Need Help From The Ladies Out There
Or the men if you have some knowledge regarding women issues and migraines. I have been low carb since beginning of November. I have had migraines since I was 12 (I'm 42 now so many years and much knowledge in dealing) and they were controlled and down to 1/month as opposed to 2-3/week. Not as bad as migraines that I used…

New Here
Just saying Hi to everyone. Been doing low carb for about 6 weeks now and things are going well for me. No complaints at all. Decided to join to get some food ideas since my food has gotten a little boring and I wanted to kick it up a little bit. Also everyone IRL thinks I am weird because of the way I eat although I did…

New to Group. Need friends.
Hi all, new to the group and looking for some online friends for support and motivation. I have around 60+ lbs to lose. I get going really well, hit a plateau (or insert some other excuse here) and give up for a few months or until I gain back what I lost and my pants get tight again. Repeat. This has been going on since…
