    Bad idea. You cant drink artificial sweeteners and lose weight.

    I do this all the time. How can I be losing this weight. lol

    Are we talking about keto or losing weight? If we are talking about losing, you can lose lots of weight with smoking pot and staying high whole day. Now the consequences are different though.

    As a former pot head I'd like to inform you that you can NOT smoke pot and lose weight. Pot itself doesn't put weight on you but the crazy food recipes that come with the high sure do.

    Agreed. Pot may not have any carbs or calories, but it has caused me to make more than one poor food decision. :)

    A bad Keto idea: making fat bombs, freezing them, then getting in lots of cardio walking back and forth to the freezer about 24 times (the amount of bombs I made and froze) to EAT them all ONE AT A TIME. Sheesh girl!

    I am so guilty of this...in fact, just polished off the rest of them. *sigh*

    Peanut butter! I need to stop buying it. I just scoop it out every afternoon for "lupper". Ha!

    Added pot back into my routine and ended up stalled for months! I get so ravenous, and my high brain gives me all sorts of BRILLIANT rationalizations for poor behavior. So I'd say that for many of us that had food issues to begin with, that's a bad keto idea!

    Another bad idea: Going out for drinks with friends on an empty stomach and thinking you still have the same tolerance. To make a long story short - you don't.

    Amen to that! Cuts down on the liquor spend, however. Or allows for better quality over quantity. ;-)

    I have this strange ability to eat phenomenal amounts of food in a sitting... always have had. Although many find the fat satiating - it's never stopped me, LOL. (And no, not "hungry" ... I just like to eat ... and have the ability to do so...)

    Occasionally I make the stupid mistake of eating 1000+ calories in a sitting (sometimes 1600) when exercise is scheduled like an hour after the meal... And then all I want to do is sleep, LOL.

    I do much better if I keep my meals somewhere around 600 calories.

    Eat too little or trying to stick to a calorie number. I have gotten dizzy few times I experimented to restrict calories. I just listen to my body.

    In addition to listening I 'poke' mine often .... blood glucose and ketone levels tell me much =)

    My thumbs hate me for that, I poke as much as 4 times a day when I am experimenting with diet or exercise.

    broccoli in a green smoothie... The chewiest smoothie I ever made and I even forgot to check carbs beforehand and didn't realize I was using almost 1/3 of my net carbs up with one breakfast drink.

    eating or drinking coconut oil or butter to get to your fat intake. Thank goodness for fat bombs.

    I can't lie. I've eaten a sliver of Kerrygold butter from time to time. That stuff is good!

    I have to say, this has by far been the best post so far!! Made me laugh the entire read. :-) My ggod/bad idea is buying Jiffy Whip. I thought I would grab a container and be able to limit my intake so I can curb my sugar cravings. . . That stuff is AWESOME but so very hard to limit to 1 spoonful.

    I end up getting "addicted" to my low card replacement foods- Now I wrestle with- Almond Butter, String cheese, any other kind of Cheese, Almond Milk, nuts, dark chocolate.....the list goes on......I'm deathly afraid to make "fat bombs"...this will turn into my next trouble spot LOL

    Jello mixed with cream cheese... The cream cheese kind of separated and is resting on top of the jello in it's gelatinous state.

    Guilty of all of the above too.

    Bad idea for keto: drinking a lot of water later in the day. Blah. Getting up to pee in the middle of the night is NOT cardio.

    Yeah, you've probably seen that picture of the avocado with the egg baked in it...well it tastes gross (and I love avocado) and good luck getting that egg to stay in that hole. I much prefer to bake an egg on a portobello mushroom cap.

    That was going to be breakfast but I was struggling with the egg in the hole where the pit is, just didn't seem big enough. Thanks for saving me the mess and the wasted food.

    I actually like it a lot. I stopped trying to cook it with the egg inside, but I'll fry it up a little in the pan and put it over the eggs. Or, I'll just chop it up and have it raw (with hot sauce) on top of the eggs. Don't be afraid to give it a try. You may like the combo.
