Keto advice please for newbie!None of my clothes fit me

Hi everyone! Newbie here

Here are my stats: Female 21 years old 5’3 160lb/72kg

So I have been on Keto for about 2 weeks now, and I haven’t seen any visible difference which I guess is to be expected. I kind of screwed up my first week I didn’t realise that an apple has 30g of carbs!

I’ve ordered Keto urine sticks to make sure I’m in Keto!

Anyway I weighed myself tonight and I was shocked that I weigh 160lb. I’m only 5’3 and I can’t believe I’m carrying so much weight. I remember being 140lb last year :( Anyway none of my clothes fit I can only really wear my workout stuff that is stretchy I don’t really have any money to buy new clothes. I just really needs some nice words right now I feel so shameful.

If anyone out their has advice for Keto and how to maximise weight loss I would really appreciate it.

After logging in my calories on MyFitnessPal I’ve had 1,102 calories today. 83g of fat 6g of carbs 75g of protein

I’ve looked at lists and eliminated all non Keto foods. One thing I’ve been doing which I’m planning to cut out is having a table spoon of olive oil in cooking. I guess I’ll just use a non stick pan.

Thank you so much in advance!

After you finish eating something really good. Remember.

It's okay to have that feeling of, "MAN! That was so good! I want more. I am already thinking of the next time I have it." That's natural. It's human nature to want to consume more of something very enjoyable. That doesn't mean you get more right then and there. That's how we all have gotten to where we are today. Overweight. Make it a routine. Have that comfort meal every other Friday instead of twice or three times in consecutive days. Have that candy bar once a week instead of every night. Enjoy your calorie dense banana split once a month. Find what works for you. You don't have to deprive yourself 100 percent of the time. You can enjoy life. Eventually when you get to your goal weight and you start loosening up the reins, you may have a higher chance of undoing everything you've done. Learn moderation now while you're working on your weight loss. It will make things much easier and you much happier.

I want you all to succeed. If you know you can't do this, then don't. Maybe you're not ready now. If you've been at this for a while and have been making progress, then you can try it. Just remember, you don't have to enjoy something to the point you're sick. There will be plenty for the next time and the time after that. They're not going to stop making it by the time you have it again. Good luck, Everyone.

Reached 70 pounds lost in half a year, but people still terrify me.

I started dieting towards the end of this year. I had been at a normal weight for most of my life until about 5 years ago when I got diagnosed with PCOS, was bedridden and depressed, and my weight spiraled out of control. Doing much better now, eating healthy, drinking lot of water and excercising at home.

I thought I was at a point with my weight loss where I would be comfortable joining a gym but I made the mistake of reading a trending post on Reddit about plus size clothing last night. You can imagine what the comments were like. Lots of vicious hatred for people who look like me. I don't want to join a gym and get mocked like the people in that comments section did. And I'm even more terrified about going on a walk or run and someone making animal noises at me. It makes me depressed that even if I lead a good lifestyle people still hate me and think I'm disgusting because I'm not attractive and thin. And that people are assuming so many horrible things about me.

How do I get over this? Has anyone else struggled with these fears?

How much time do you spend thinking about/doing/planning your weight loss/weight . related stuff?

Hi Everyone!

This is my first post. I love this forum, and I've been reading it daily for the last month. I was wondering how much time everyone spends on their weight loss...what I mean by this is things like meal prepping and gym, but also things like reading fitness and diet stuff, coming on here, fantasising about goal weights etc etc. I find myself spending evenings working out might weight loss across pounds as well as stone (I use kg), as well as recalculating my BMI every time I lose a pound and just really getting pleasure about every little .5cm and .2BMI % lost. I seem to daydream about healthier eating practices and mulling things over in my head...rethinking goal weights and just spending a lot of time thinking about all of it! But it doesn't feel obsessive or restrictive - I should probably say I'm in limbo work wise and location wise and it seems to have become a hobby. I'm anxious about maintaining my routine once this ends, but I usually just leave that as a problem for another day. So how much time does everyone spend and how do they feel about it? Does anyone else get pleasure at logging and calculating and staring for ages at their happyscale trends?!

A Milestone Date for me: Day 60, down #65

I began my journey on March 4, 2019 (62 days ago, but I have enjoyed 2 well-planned feast days) and today I'm 60 days into it. My bathroom scale says I'm down #65 from a beginning weight of #307 to #242 this morning. I'm only guessing, but I figure I have about #20 to go to hit a truly healthy weight -- no matter what the different weight/height charts might claim. It should prove to be a far more comfortable summer this year.

My plan from the beginning was simple. Two meals/day, totaling less than 1K calories, coupled with long fitness walks every day and/or night. Plenty of vegetables, some fruit, some oatmeal, eggs, tuna, etc. Zero garbage food, no faddish diets, etc.

The weight loss has been gratifying, but it's all the other changes to my body that astound me. My hair is thicker and shinier and it grows faster too. My skin is clear -- it looks like the skin of a health food store employee that I've always wondered about. My eyes are bright and clear. My fingernails grow faster. My ejaculate is far more voluminous. My hiking ability in terms of power and endurance is off the charts.

I have been working hard putting together a book of recipes and menus to help me keep the weight off -- which has proven to be far more difficult for me in the past.

I have enjoyed reading the stories here. Everyone, keep up the good work.

How to get motivated after friends told me they did not see a difference after 25 pounds lost?

I (20F) have lost 25 pounds since december. I always had a problem binging whenever I felt lonely or in a bad place. Since december, I hadnt binged once until a week ago. I am very quiet about losing weight and dieting because it is a sensitive topic for me, but I finally decided to share my accomplishment with some female friends. Their reactions were ‘we cant tell, its not visible’. I am so hurt and demotivated that it sent me straight into eating bad food and binging again. I went done only one clothing size (from a 14 to a 12) so it is indeed an insecurity of mine that the weight loss isnt visible enough. Can you guys please help me get back on track and reminding me that its worth it?

How to Make the Best Guacamole Ever

Guacamole, with its smooth, creamy texture and refreshingly delicious flavor, makes for a divine dip or sandwich spread.

And while this tasty dish serves up lots of nutrients your body needs like healthy fats and fiber, it’s ridiculously easy to overeat. And too much of a good thing can start to be not-so-good for your waist line. That’s why we’re serving up this lighter version of the classic guac recipe. It uses fat-free Greek yogurt and goes extra heavy on the veggies, which means you can eat more of this tasty treat than typical guacamole!

And while we’re pretty sure guac-aholics will love the fact that they can eat more of their favorite snack, that isn’t even the best part about this healthy guacamole recipe. The thing that makes this the best guacamole recipe ever is the addition of one surprising ingredient… pineapple! By adding this sweet tropical fruit to your guacamole, you’ll get a touch of sweetness that pairs quite nicely with the lime juice and cilantro.

Not a pineapple fan? Feel free to leave it off… the recipe is still tasty on its own. Pair it with your favorite crunchy veggies, or use a SmartCarb like whole grain crackers or whole wheat pita wedges and dip away! Here’s how to make it:

Ingredients:
3 avocados
1.5 cups plain fat-free Greek yogurt
3/4 cup tomato
2/3 cup red onion
2 Tbsp. cilantro
3 cloves minced garlic
3/4 cup pineapple
Juice from one lime

Directions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, mash avocados with back of fork.
2. Add yogurt and stir until well-mixed.
3. Add all remaining ingredients and stir to blend.

Servings:
Makes about 8 cups

Counts as:
A half cup counts as ½ PowerFuel and ½ Extra
