    Quickcarb. I bought a box in Amazon and it helps with those carb cravings. That and Walden farms jelly. I also picked up ketostrips at the drug store which will let you know how your ketosis is going.

    Trying to start the keto lifestyle. Finding that I'm overthinking it and not sure how to start. I have had carbs and sugar all my life. I know it is for health but it is hard to break what I've done for a very long time!

    Best of success. I went keto by default Oct 2014 when I cut out sugar and all forms of all grains for health reasons. Nearly three years later at the age of 66 my general health and lab results are better than 20-30 years ago. Keep in mind for some reason living in nutritional ketosis we can lose inches without losing the first pound of weight. In my case it was 6 weeks in before I lost the first pound yet had already started losing inches. I do not track what I eat so I have no food diary. I track by weighting each morning. For past two years I have maintained at 195-210 range but now that my health has recovered nicely I have decided to work my way down to 170 over the next 12 months.

    All that are new welcome to MFP forums.
