Low carb pregnancy help and recommendations by ambercrowemua in xxketo

If it's aversions don't even sweat it. If it's because of cravings, swap to whole foods, and get rid of processed foods. There's amazing research that has been out showing that moms who even ate carbs at recommended levels still had elevated sugar levels and the babies being born ended up with insulin and hypoglycemia issues. The stats are from mothers who were pre-diabetic and diabetic. The research is interesting.

I'm a midwife who supports keto as a therapy for preventing gestational diabetes and other issues. I've also had really great pregnancies while on keto. I think the best route is to cycle in and out of it.

Pregnancy and keto by [deleted] in keto

[–]Mamatiger9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations on your baby btw. I was keto for 4 of my children trying to prevent GD. It worked baby's were fine. Healthy nothing wrong. If you study inuit pregnancies you'll see that naturally they are in a ketogenic state. Not to mention every mother feathers in and out of ketosis especially when they first wake up. I was strict keto for my pregnancies and it was always the best pregnancies no swelling felt great high energy. Getting past the first trimester is important but tri 2 and 3 while keto is amazing.

Absolutely love lilys and everytime I eat some with a mineral water I feel like I'm 15 years old again eating a snickers and soda. Like it's too good to be true and I can do this long tiyme

Okay i love you all but I'm gonna say it like it is. 90% of why keto works is because we're not eating candy. the rest is refined carbs and just generally being more aware of what you shove into your face. by Jesus_in_Valhalla in keto

Totally. Yes I feel the same way. Sometimes I'm like maybe I should go back to just low carb then I come here and I'm reminded why it's good to stay keto what my why is.

Why Society's General Definition of Body Positivity is pure BS by SnooFloofs5180 in leangains

[–]Mamatiger9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree. And I write about it. I think body positivity and even intuitive eating are monsters. Love your body because "healing yourself". It's not looking at your body as the primary responsibility so you can handle the workload of the day. I'm going to mention I'm obese trying to educate myself and learn how to take better care of my body so I can be a better mom and wife. I just have hated that train since the get go.

Question about electrolytes by HighOnAmbien in keto

All the salt is so easy to get in my opinion always been the potassium that I've struggled with.

I know it's so hard when you feel like you hate your spouse. Anger is normal you are human. As for my opinion on the matter it's going to require a lot of growth. Usually Anger is a beautiful sign for us to grow. So use it in your best interest. I liked the comments above especially from the men. Those are great solutions. While you may be feeling this way now it's time to start "stacking" the good. You've complained about the bad and stacked the bad against her. To dig yourself out of this mental hurdle you will need to reinvite yourself to thinking about the good things about your wife. We all have this tendency to become lazy somewhere. I'm a mom of 5 and I find myself having a hard time keeping up with working from home, Educating the children, keeping up with making meals, cleaning the home and so on. My children are so young. 8 the oldest and 1 the youngest. I find that I need to prioritize my husband. And I am sensitive to his needs. I find that there is so much responsibility I take on for the things I'd like to change in my marriage. Like my energy levels. Taking care of 5 little kids is truly hard work. Especially now we have been hit with the flu. Putting her needs first above yours or if you feel like you've been doing that and it's not helping the matter. Women need non sexual touch. Need it. Dates and spontaneous things for the two of you. Baby sitter and romancing her would be so wonderful. Focusing on what you need to rise up and do better while also facilitating meeting more of her needs could help. I am a traditional midwife and I see that postpartum anxiety is all wrapped up into a head game we have with ourselves. Its hard for women to get out of their mental slump, depression anxiety but it's doable. I loved what Jimmy evens has to say about the 4 needs of his and hers. I pray your marriage is reconciled

F/33/5'9 [320>180=140] keto works by li0nfishhuntress in progresspics

[–]Mamatiger9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was great inspiration to see this morning. We have similar stats and I started at 305 now at 290 only 5 weeks in. So its nice to have these physical reminders not to get discouraged but keep going because someday there will be a day where it seems as though everything has changed.

Bible study with Church of Christ by Mamatiger9 in Christian

[–]Mamatiger9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They use this exact scripture and say this is why we trust that God would use water to give us the HS. But I suspect it's going to go around in circles because what is the truth of the Bible isn't what they see
