    I am 64 and have been on Keto since April and have lose 23 lbs. very slow. I guess I am real insulin resistant, I am trying to correct that if I can by following Dr. Boz on Youtube.

    Good morning! I'm new (this is my first post in the group) and I just started keto (borderline carnivore) at the beginning of July and am loving it so far. I'd love to make some other keto friends, share success stories, recipes, etc. I'm down 6.4 pounds so far; how's it going for everyone else?

    Hi Everyone. I noticed i did join this group but couldn't find how to get back into it as not very tec. tbh ... I am missing the bread potatoes and pasta while doing the keto .
    So its been a big fail in the weight loss .
    Days when i do stick to it I feel great less bloated and no heartburn.

    Coming back to keto after being off for a year. Weight came back on, of course. I tried weight watchers and couldn’t stick to it….hopefully keto can save me again!

    I haven’t had a good start but today has been a good day. I love when you complete diary for the day, it gives a prediction 5 weeks out- a wake up call and accountability. Love it.

    @2t9nty waving back :)

    @rileysowner I will too.

    So how is everyone doing lately?

    Food-wise I'm doing good; exercise-wise things are better now that the fall is here. This summer was way too brutal for me, I didn't get out a lot for walking around but now that the weather is nicer I've been enjoying more walks with the dog.

    We've adopted 2 new kittens that are keeping us busy, too. They were only 3 weeks when we got them a couple weeks ago (neighborhood stray keeps having litters and abandoning them). We also have a cat from a litter she abandoned last year, so now we have her little sisters too. Some of the others we've fostered and found homes, but others haven't made it. No one can seem to catch her to have her fixed, she's too smart for spring traps and won't go near people.


    Here are muh babies:

    Doing great here...

    I have been doing well with the keto.

    We have an adult daughter living with us these days. She is on disability. I was at CVS for 50 min this morning to get meds for her. One of them will require a second trip, because CVS is the way it is.

    I am doing well. Keto suits me, although I have some blood work I need to schedule, and I expect that my doctor will not be happy with my cholesterol levels. Who knows, I might be one of those people whose LDL is at what is typically considered a good level while on Keto.

    My triglycerides were going down on Keto and HDL was up but LDL didn't change, if LDL goes up I'm gonna have her test it to see if it's the large, buoyant LDL that is mainly coronary-neutral or the small, dense LDL which are the bad ones. But overall everything else is so good, I'm gonna try not to worry too much.
