Hi RDillon. This evening is the first time I’ve posted. I’ve lost 42 pounds and have 22 more to go. I’m starting a 3 day fast tomorrow? I’m going to use bone broth and have ox tails in the crock pot.

Hi! Would enjoy some Keto buddies as well. I feel like my regular friend are finding me annoying with all my Keto talk :blush:

Hi rdillon and porkbelly. I believe I am Bella1. My friends are tired of my keto talk as well. But I’ve been trying to bounce ideas off of them. I think instead I have burned them out . I am preparing my bone broth to start a 3 day fast tomorrow. I’m hoping I can “talk about the experience” with you guys…rdillon. …wow 96 pounds! That is an incredible achievement and shows extreme dedication. How long have you been Keto? Pork belly (great name) what’s your story?

i hear ya bellybella… i feel like my friends are like dam another keto post lol. i like to take pictures and talk about keto. it keeps me interested and motivated. one of my poor friends had a keto journey page and she said she wanted me to post to it to keep her active and i did. but it has become one sided. her page is all my posts so ive cut back :frowning:

talkin with people just helps keep me motivated

I have been on keto since last year june and slowly losing my weight. I currently weigh 224lbs and I weighed 320lbs before I started. I might go to 195 the lowest.

The weight loss is impressive. The journey into keto has been extremely enlightening. In my exuberance to share my new found knowledge of Keto, healthy fats,…etc…my family groans. I can see them sharing eye contact. It makes me laugh a bit…I get it…but I’ve got to be “all in this”to stay motivated.

I don’t know about iMessage…my kids though do.

I decided to do a slight fast beginning today but our times may be different. I usually do 24hrs but my max is 30hrs.

By doing the 3 day fast looking for the benefits of autophagy. Just the thought of my own cells cleaning away debris in the body is motivating to me AND the quick weight loss from fasting.

I won’t be in the gym until wednesday so I started today and hope to end on wednesday.

You just described this entire forum, that’s what it’s here for. Much more efficient and helpful than any single or multiple contacts. Have a question, ask it and get multiple answers typically pretty quickly. I’m the 12th person to reply to you in the hour after your original post. Not gonna pull that off with iMessage buddies! Utilize the forum for what it’s good at… we’re here to help.

I am downloading cronometer for the first time because I want to move away from fitnesspal

#16

I started with using MFP, but they kept screwing up my macros, so on the advice of someone on this board, I switched to Carb Manager. Have not used Cronometer.

#17

This! :point_up:

Don’t believe you could find a better forum.

(Richard Dillon) #18

How much do you pay for carb manager?

#19

It’s free.
