Ive been doing the 5 to 1 rule and counting calories. 5 to 1 deals with only carbs.You take the total carbohydrate number and the dietary fiber number and you divide them and if it’s less than five eat it if it’s more than five don’t eat. Ive lost 17 pounds doing this. I’ve been finding Keto noodles, breads and pancake mix on Amazon. 9 pounds to go for me!

I also have hypothyroid. I just don’t know what to do or what to eat.

I'm starting the AIP diet. I'm personally not trying to lose weight because my RA has already caused me to lose so much unexpectedly but I will be trying the AIP/Paelo diet to help with pain. I have heard of others losing weight with the Paleo diet though.

I’ve been counting calories and I’ve lost 22 lbs since the beginning of April.
