Accountability partner(s)
 

Hi. I'm back on the board after losing 35 pounds last year and gaining it back after some stuff happened and I emotionally ate. I'm currently about 300 pounds.

I started doing the Leslie Sansone walk at home videos last year. I started at 1/2 mile and got up to 3 miles with HIIT training. I found some vids on YouTube for free. I liked them enough that I bought a couple. I need to get back into doing those.

Having an accountability partner sounds like a great idea.

I have no idea how to even do low carb. I just started cutting out known culprits a little at a time, like soda, sugar, chips, etc, eating more fruits/veggies, and drinking more water.

I have those walk away the pounds on vhs and forgot all about them! Thanks
For reminding me! I tried to use my exercise bike for a s long as I could and can only do like 10 minutes at a time before being in pain and feeling awful. Those and my treadmill sound like a plan.

Do you use any social media or would this forum be easier for you?
I have a link to the dr b food list (it's not up to date but gives a good idea)
I steadily lose minimum of half a pound a day following this diet, sometimes 1 whole pound. Average is 28lbs/month. Most people will say this is too rapid, but that's the point in the morbidly obses category and why I see my doctor frequently. Everything gets slowly reintroduced and taught proper portions etc

I love it, when I can stick to it. Carbs, gluten and dairy make me feel like garbage I cheat lately, so I hope that helps me stick to it.

What's your plan look like?

I told you what I do. I just cut stuff out a little at a time. I've not been active a lot lately. I should start those walking vids again. Not a fan of social media.

I should probably check out the low carb dieting. I thought I remembered seeing a website with recipes and stuff for ketosis and staying in that state. I think it was this one, or something similar.

Sorry, I should've been more specific.
I meant like weigh ins. I was going to the clinic
3x a week for weigh ins and they test urine for
ketosis. I have strips, so I'm testing and weighing
the same days as I was, and I was wanting
to post the same with my accountability partner(s).

As well as like how often excersing and such..
(Which I see from your latest post now lol)
Right now, I'm just trying to do what I can and work
up to an hour a day.

Bernstein is super strict. But I hear if you keep under 50 net carbs a day, you can stay in ketosis... i don't have enough posts to post a link yet. But I'll look at yours, thanks!

I'm looking at that site you listed. My word that's a lot of stuff in there.

It's quite the list. And that's not even updated!

I like to keep it simple.
It says 2 servings from every category, but they told me to use 3 because how high my weight is.

My days go as follows:
3 servings of lean protein (3.5oz) 4 hours apart
16oz of veggies, spread out however I wish
10oz of fruit, spread out how I wish
3 bread servings (1 serving is 1/2 slice of bread or 13 goldfish)
Min 64oz of water a day
2 cups of diet pop or coffee or tea max
4 Splenda max

There are restrictions to which fruit and veggies can be had.
It's easy after the first 3 days. I'm never hungry. My problem is just being tempted by what's in the house for my kids. Peanutbutter is a big weakness. And the few times I go out, and people are having pizza and such...
I have binging tendencies when I do cheat, so I'm looking into a
clinic for that in my area.

Monday, Wednesday & Friday
I weigh myself first thing in the am and inject myself with b6 & b12 (my doctor showed me how and gave me a prescription) and test urine.
And daily multivitamin and vitamin d supplement.

When I was doing it at the clinic I never exercised and still
lost at least 28lbs a month, every month. I'm hoping exercise will just help the flab, and overall feeling.
