  1. Thank you so much for speaking the truth. I needed that. Now that old man winter is on his way out, I'll be looking forward to riding bike and walking. I will keep in touch, and keep you posted. Thank you also for taking the time to reply to this. I can and will do this! Any recipes would be great! Thanks again.
  2. I have increased my protein, brought all my levels up (eg) Vitamins b12, Iron, etc...I'm so ready to get back out, but in single digit numbers, no thanks...snacking a bit more...good days, bad days....I need some suggestions!
  3. I have been on biotin for almost two months now, they told me to start on 1000 mg, I started taking 5000 and I still am losing so much hair every day. Also, I had my surgery in June and I'm only down 37 lbs... Sheesh...
  4. Can you share with me what you eat most days. I should be down lots, lot more. I hate it!
  5. I regret doing this because of my hair loss, and I haven't lost a lot of weight. Could lack of iron cause hair loss. I uped my dose of biotin to 5000, and I'm still losing "lots" of hair!
  6. How many milligrams did you get 1000,5000 or 7500? I know now it was because of low protein!
  7. How much have you lost? That's great! Any suggestions would help!
  8. There is a vodka called Titos, it's hand made,and has no sugar! It's very good with diet cranberry, which has only 3 carbs.....be careful, very addictive.
  9. I'm losing so much hair, were you losing your hair? I had the surgery almost six months ago and I'm only down 32 lbs.... Not too happy! Any suggestions from anyone would be great!
  10. That's right, it's the choices that we make. My Drs nurse told me to quit getting on the scales. She said everyone else is different. A gain here and there could be water, muscle, etc....I would rather lose a bit slower so my skin doesn't sag, and I keep looking for better ways to make low carb, low fat, low calorie, but she said the calories aren't a big deal if it's high protein, good protein not anything high in fat...I love soup...so I try to have low sodium, low fat, low carb, and if I'm hungry, I can go back for more....I'm making a chili right now with deer meat, and veggies fresh from the garden...even the tomato sause...so I know what goes into it....no sugar either....I hope it turns out good...smells good...LOL...

    Another reason urine smells is because of a lot of Protein, that is why we have to drink lots of Water....ketones makes it do that!!!
  12. I love all the ingredients that you have there. I grew all kinds of peppers this summer. Also, I do an egg drop Soup with low sodium, and add that stuff in it except the fish...thanks for sharing....
  13. I have been in the same boat. Maybe eating wrong stuff, and too much sliders. It's been almost a month stall for me. Ugh, I'm very frustrated also. Any support, or advice would be welcomed! Good luck to all!
