I've been given a v large turkey frozen. Trouble is it won't fit in the bottom drawer of my fridge freezer. It will if I remove the drawer. Is this ok to do does anyone know?

After a post last night when I told that strangely breaded youngs fish fillets don't spike me. Yet a fish finger will. I thought it would be fun to start a thread to ask what foods that you would expect a spike somehow doesn't..... Ie some people can get away with battered fish from the...

I've now been on lchf and had such sucess. Lost 2 stone ...stayed in ketosis the whole time..felt great too! My question is this. As I'm still in ketosis but don't want to lose any more..quite hard as I'm lighter than I want to be now..and if I raise my protein my bgs go up. Likewise obviously...

Ok friends I'm going to do a week on this. As per @Brunnaria advice got really posh coffee to try and stop the spaced out feeling..so I've just made it and properly with butter and coconut oil and frothed it up and put it in a warmed thermos...I have to say no oily taste at all. Just creamy and...

Amyone know how many carbs in a sachet? I'm having trouble working it out? It can't be 20g ? Surely. Must mean 2g. I've got a stinky cold n sore throat

Anybody got any nice ideas what I can do with a celeriac please?

I'm 7 weeks into lcfh. I'm loving how it makes me feel. But so much more important is watching my bg readings come down. Only 7 weeks ago I was measuring in the teens and stupidly blaming a course of steriods to help a relapse with my MS ( multiple sclerosis). Yes they didn't help but it was...

Wow. Look at You Magazine today in the mail on Sunday. Beautiful photos and recipes all low carb. Just lovely

I'm a bit unsure here. When a recipe calls for almond flour. Is this just like the ground almonds on sale?

I read on here that lchf means limiting your protein to approz 1g per 1kg body weight. So a 6 oz steak is approx 48g. If someone weighed 80kg then needs no more than 80g a day. So I guess what I'm asking is this is easily done by say 2 eggs for breakfast. Say a very small amount of tuna or...

I noticed a big sign in the window of my local chippy saying they now do gluten free batter ..made up fresh when you order...would this be low carb does anyone know? I presume its made with a gluten free flour of some sort

You guys are going to get sick of my questions... I'm averaging 35 carbs a day..initially lost weight in first week. Finally got firmly in ketosis and staying there after lowering my protein and increasing healthy fats. Mfp has me at 1200 cals give or take....imagine my dismay when I got on...

I've seen a number of posted pics from an app not mfp that shows say. A portion of sliced peppers on a plate for a certain amount of carbs. It looks great...does anyone know which app it is please ?

I've just got my slow cookpot out today and I've made Bernsteins beef green pepper and mushroom stew...it was really nice...and so low in carbs I'm a bit new to slow cooking. Would some of you lovely people post some of your favourite recipes for us to try now the cold weather is coming...

Well my new bible Dr.Bernstein days this. 1cup of mixed green salad with one tiny slice of onion and one slice of tomato has 6 g of carbs.....this has shocked me...no wonder I'm slipping in and out of ketosis :( was eating small portions of above ground grown veg with my moderate potions of...

The sheer joy at the stix going quite dark pink has been offset by being told that this could be due to the fact I'm not drinking enough. 2 and a half litres of plain water a day though. Is the dark colour because I've only in the last few days gone into ketosis. Been lchf for a week and a...

Please can anyone tell me how to read members previous posts from the phone app? I've tried everything. I'm a bit of a techno nerd

After a tip from a low carber friend who swears she can tolerate arborio rice I've made a risotto mixed peppers and mushroom. I started off with butter and at the end of cooking time stirred a dollop of cream cheese and a godly handful of cheese...tested before eating at 5.8. And two hours later...

Hi. Has anybody had any experience with this? Its a horrible feeling whilst in bed at night of constantly having to move your legs and can go on for hours and keep you awake..not a pain as such but you literally have to move your legs..

Another question please. I'm back on the forum after a six month awol (head in sand) and into day 3 of low carbing. Can anyone tell me roughly how long it takes to go into ketosis?...I've cut carbs very low to start with. Mainly from veggies. Thanks
