New on Keto diet

char316

I have been on Keto diet for two weeks now. Have difficulty getting into Ketosis but still lost 13# the first 8 days. Then put 3 back on the next day. Have stayed the same the last week, maintaining about 5-10% carb intake, except for the other day when I ate some paleo cookies with carbs. Now up a total of 4#. Does anyone else have this kind of track on Keto diet?

I suggest you check out the main low carber daily forum group here in MFP. It's where most of us Ketofiles tend to hang out:

It is an extremely low carb (typically less than 20g per day) which puts you into ketosis. Some people can accomplish the same with less than 50g of carbs per day. You do a moderate amount of protein and high fats.
