    R.I.P the list. It was nice while we had it :( how was It so hard for people to just update their own stats on the list?

    >.< now i see why so many have closed groups for challenges.

    I hope you guys made it through thanks giving, we're getting close and so many of you are doing so well :D

    8 down 6 to go.

    I started the ketogenic diet in August and I am down 54 pounds. I am going to start being more diligent with tracking because I definitely lost more that way. Best of luck to all of you!

    Hi,
    - Keep you total Carbs under 40 grams a day.
    - Net carbs* less than 30g (net Carbs = Total Carbs - Fiber)
    *Note on UK packaging the fiber is already subtracted from the carbs shown on the label so its only fresh food / none labelled foods you subtract the fiber from the total carb to get net carbs. If a US food label you do subtract the fiber on the label. Not sure about other countries.
    - Depends on your amount of exercise but keep protein around 75 - 100g
    - Remaining calories from good quality fats

    FATS
    Grass fed meats,
    Butter from grass fed cows if you can get it (grass fed = more CLA content which promotes fat burning)
    Coconut oil,
    Heavy Cream 40%+ Fat,
    Crème Fraîche 30%+ fat,
    Cream cheese,
    Full at cheese (check carbs less that <1 - 2g per 100g some softer cheeses have more sugar / carbs) too much cheese can adversely affect some people I keep my consumption o cheese under 55g per day,
    Kippers in rapeseed oil,
    Mackerel in olive oil,
    Olives,
    Olive oil,
    Black Coffee,
    Bullet proof coffee,
    Avocados
    Spinach,
    Broccoli, two cups or handfuls of greens a day),
    Cauliflower
    Peanut Butter,
    Limited amount o nuts and seeds (go or the ones with lower carbs, i.e Almonds rather than cashews.)
    Eggs
    Bacon
    Mushrooms

    One of favorite treats is a homemade mini peanut butter cheesecake, using Crème Fraîche, cream cheese, and peanut butter. Bacon & egg for breakfast is good with some butter fried mushrooms, like to have Kippers with a touch of butter once a week.

    I have to say, I weighed daily through all of my weight loss, and I'm finding it really frustrating having a weigh-in day! I don't know how people cope! I suppose you get used to it. I'm still weighing daily for my own information, but I'm not recording it for the challenge, as we have a weigh-in on Monday. Of course, with the usual Christmas celebrations, I'm four pounds up from where I was earlier in the week! Which makes it a one pound gain from last week.

    So I'm now back to 6 pounds lost, 8 pounds to lose, 14 pounds goal.
    I'm hoping that four pounds comes back off over the next week!

    I don't really want to log this as I know it's not a real loss...I've got tonsillitis and not eaten for three days. But it puts me 6lbs down from last week.

    Beat my goal. I only had two pounds to go and I am down 6. So 18 pounds down total during this challenge. Now, in fairness, I had an anaphylactic reaction and was in the hospital on a ventilator for three days, but that was a week ago and I have been back to my keto eating for 5 days I am still down in weight. I was amazed that the hospital was willing to work with my way of eating.
