Health / Re: Shed Weight Easily On Keto by runsaway: 5:21pm On May 29, 2018 |
So I have been on Keto for one week now and I must confess that it works. One of the reasons why it works is that it gives your body the right tool to addresses underlying insulin resistance issues that lead to weight gain. Merely recusing my portion while still feeding my body carbs did not work as I was still feeding the body wrong and not helping it reverse insulin resitiance and use ketones for energy. Going to the gym also did not work as i was gainign muscle under my fat and just becoming bulkier, Besides, rigorous workouts make me extra hungry/famished and I end up feeding it wrongly with too many carbs aand eating more calories that i burnt at the gym. An interesting journey so far. My result? I am able to wear my pregnancy clothes again. After my first baby, i bought some UK size 14 clothes to refresh my wardrobe, I was, however, unable to fit into them after baby number 2. I had become a size 16. Between yesterday and today, I have been able to wear 2 of those clothes again. A size 14 skirt to work yesterday and a stretched size 12 jeans today. The size 16 short I bought after baby number are starting to fall and now need a belt to stay up. So what have I been eating for the last week? Breakfast -Olive Oil vinegarette -Eggs -Sausages -Mincemeat -Coffee Lunch -Pepper soup -Vegetable soup -Okra Asepo Soup -Fried meat and Fish Snacks/Dinner - Skin Crackers/Rind (Pomo Crakers) - Flaxseed Crackers - Cumcumber - Boiled and roasted peanuts - Coconut - Diet Coke(Trying to stop this) I still miss the biscuit and cakes; I am going to experiment using coconut flour over the coming days to find a palatable low card biscuit/cookie that works for me. My exercise comes from walking - I love to walk so i try to get about 7,000 steps every day but nothing forced if there is no opportunity. The Diet alone seems to be working. Next MileStones Fit into clothes i had before baby number 1 - Goal date is the end of the second week in June Fit into clothes i had before marriage Figure out how to maintain a low-carb, high-fat lifestyle so I never gain the weight back If you are thinking of embarking on this Keto lifestyle, yesterday was the best time to start; today is the next best day to start. It really works! |

I started keto 5 days ago and I must say Keto is Bae I am on day 5 and i can see results already. The first few days of keto results in water weight loss. I know that is probably what I have going on but it is encouraging none the less. Check my post for more on my weight loss journey and my keto recipes. Who wants to come along and do this with me?

kindklemz:Thank you so much for this post. I am tired of Nigerians putting unnecessary pressure on couples and their weddings. If your wedding day is the happiest of your life you might as well commit suicide right afterwards. Your wedding day is surely a happy day but should be the beginning of even better days ahead. All you need for a wedding is for the husband , wife , official and 2 witnesses to show up. Parents and family are welcomed to share our joy too. Anything after that is optional and should not require couples to go into debt to keep up with the Joneses. Meanwhile unrealistic expectations such as these and money issues are some of root cause of divorce. |

Praise God. Little princess came yesterday afternoon through scheduled induction with epidural @ 39w4d weighting in at 3.3 kg. B.S. not dramatic as induction to birth was 4 hrs and had my epidural topped up to the end including during pushing and episiotomy stitch (can't come and kill myself). The only thing dramatic about it was trying to get to the hospital in time for my appointment through traffic- VI traffic has been crazy this week. Baby breast and bottle feeding already. vigil has started. 48 Likes |

Abiagirl777 Sorry to ask but pls are you sure it is malaria; somwtime pregnancy symptoms can mimic other things. Pls test before treating. Can't you try seeing a GP if your obgyn can't see you yet Don't know of the drug to use cause I have not treated malaria in pregnancy before; just placed on preventive medication (paludrine). 2 Likes |

People will wear jacket and scarf in the office and me I will still be asking tea girl to bring me a full cup of ice block that I want to drink cold water. Same thing with first pregnancy too.

Iomoge2, don't fret over the baby's weight gain and vajj tearing yet Around 500g is normal (give or take a few grams) so 700g is not too bad yet. Were you on bed rest after your fall? Just watch over the next 2 weeks to see how it goes and ensure the hospital also watches for signs of GD. Just catching up on your diary, didn't know you had one. It is well with you. @chili89, congratulations and God bless your baby... Pls come and share your bs soon. 1 Like |

zaynie: I totally agree with you on expressing displeasure, But I also tried to look at it from the angle of being an 'offender'. I hope if I ever offend on this thread that I will receive forgiveness and hopefully 'forgetfulness' from you all. That is what I struggle most with personally - hoping others forget so I can move on. To your second point, people cc you because they value your opinion but I know it also put some pressure on you to be available and to answer... Pele, that is the burden of all wise men. Hopefully your new job will still give time to drop in once in a while and share of your experience and knowledge. Lastly, Pls forgive all real or imagined shades. I would hate for this thread to stall after just joining 4 Likes |

Amhappy: Hmmm...... This is a tough one Dear, just my opinion below..... Well not really an opinion ..... You have to handle this situation with wisdom. I know it will be hard to labour at work and then bring your earnings home to feed a full grown man especially when you also have to borrow to meet other needs. I have however witnessed or been in similar situations and came to the personal conclusion that it is a /my service to God.... Do you mind if we ask - does your guest work? Does he help out dh at home with the 'manly' chores at least? Do you get along well? Is it just the financial situation causing the rift or there are other things you have not mentioned? Pls lets have more details if available . I do agree with the mama who said you should pass a bulk of the burden of the loan repayment to your husband; pls work out with him how he can help pay back the debt even if it is 20k per month. That will provide you some relief and pacify your mum a bit.... 2 Likes |

Just my opinion below..... An exodus of this thread is unnecessary. How many of us resign from work because of one-off office politics or confrontations? Kindly be magnanimous enough to ignore the happenings of the last few days so that people can distance themselves from real or imagined faults and thus come to forgive themselves and others.... With these few points I hope I have been able to confuse and not convince you to please move on to other topics and give people time to ' heal' How about we all do something interesting tomorrow like posting our funniest pregnancy stories (pregnancy brain) or something like that....
