    Happy Dance Day! I am down to 60.5 kg now, only 500 grams away from my final goal of 60 kg! Yipee! I did do I think 5 fasts that lasted 24 hours to get down from 65 to this weight, and IF of 18/6 most days.

    Five weeks in and feeling better every day/week. First real social road block this weekend. A guys golf weekend that normally contains a lot of golf, a few beers and lots of bad food. I’m sure to go off Ketosis but will test my willpower to get back on track Sunday. I’ll let you know what happens weightwise if interested.

    3 day guys golf weekend over. Tried really hard to stay on plan but with beverage cart every 30 min and limited food options at clubhouse. (Can only eat wings so long.) I did want up with a few Bud Lights in cupholder and a few carbs to boot. Plus 2lbs for weekend. Will see how many days that sets me back. Got some rest and back on plan.

    Today is my second day on keto. Your weekly totals are awesome! Well done!

    Passed on pizza yesterday and walked past birthday cake in the break room 3 times this afternoon. Determined to make a change. “Nothing changes if nothing changes.” Thanks for sharing - I needed it!

    Hi all new here just started day two! I am in carb withdrawel!! Trying to drink as much water to help me! Is anyone else experiencing this? Also, I purchase zero calorie sports drinks to help if I get the Keto flu to replace lost electrolytes. Hope to be part of the LOOSING crowd soon!

    Any suggestions for best means to monitor/check ketosis? How accurate are the strips, or best to just get the blood monitor?

    Welcome to the newbies! I’ve done Keto before but my Keto flu was so much worse this time around. Magnesium, sodium, potassium and just powering through is what got me through it (and a lot of apologies to my family for dealing with my crankiness).

    I’m just over 6 weeks back to Keto and down just over 9 lbs. Slow, but going in the right direction.

    Even though I hear that Keto urine strips aren’t accurate, they are what I use to check if I am in Ketosis. I’m too much of a chicken to do blood monitoring. 😬

    I just finished my day one onto day two
    I'm not going at "hard-core" probably as most of you but I'm mostly focusing on watching my carb in-take.
    Keeping it as close to net 20g a day as I can. Increasing my protein and fat intake.

    Only looking to lose 15-20lbs
    goal weight: 125-130lbs .... 5'6.5

    So I start Keto today. Any pointers for the beginner?

    Dr Eric Berg on YouTube is the king of keto!! Dr Ken Berry is good too. I'm a little bias and will highly recommend Dr Berg, he's the best!!
    Btw, my advice is to prep your body before keto, like start taking vitamins and electrolytes because you will drop weight very fast. I lost 10 lbs in less than a week when Istarted out. Good luck!

    Oh you will just keep doing what you're doing.
