One week in... first week dropped 12 lbs like nothing and had supercharged energy! Past couple days feeling a bit of a drop in energy and my muscles have been extra sore. Incorporating more magnesium and water to try and beat the hump...8

Add more sodium and potassium as well. The huge drop was depleting yout glycogen stores and reducimg insulin levels which decreases your electrolyte levels. If you aren't already sodium to be 3-5k mg.5 -
I did it for a year, it didn't work out for me and I regained the weight. I missed fruit, bread and pasta too much. Lost it all again with calorie counting. If you do want to try it, go for it. But it's not a magic weight loss bullet.13

A little over a week in and down 12 pounds. I listen to the Burn It Nutrition podcast. Pretty good5

Great responses. Thank you everyone. I've been doing this already for 2 months already. I still and I've lost 18 lbs. Seem to be stuck now. Just started working out again. I suffered keto flu I think. But over all I feel good. I was just curious about others success with it.4

Are you tracking calories? How long have you been stuck? Because its very easy to over consume fat and eat too many calories.8 -
I've only been at the same weight for a week and a half so I'm not overly concerned yet. I just started working out again so maybe that will help a little.1

TBH, I tend to retain water and glycogen when I start a new workout routine. If could be exercise that slowed your losses. On the bright side, it's just water weight so who cares.2 -
I did it super strict for 5 weeks and lost 21lbs, I actually got a little bored at the end and struggled for meal ideas so I packed in, had so much more energy from not eating crap plus no alcohol whatsoever though. I did discover a really good you tube channel, headbangers kitchen, tried quiet a few of his recipes, they were really good but I also found it expensive to be on keto!1

I'm trying to track my macros. Is there a setting to show net carbs? At the moment I'm seeing total carbs. So it's throwing my limits out.1

Even with a premium account, you cant do net carbs. I think there is a google chrome add on that can allow it.2
