How long have you been keto?
I'm just curious what other's experiences are like in this group. I found keto in January of 2014. It balanced my hormones so well that I ended up preggo within a few months. So here I am much later getting back to being serious with my keto. I'm 26 days in and taking this very seriously. So how long have you been keto?

Keto Rash?
Hello! So, I've been on the keto diet 10 days and have lost 8 lbs already! However on day 7 I developed the "keto rash" on my lower back and under my breasts. I know not everyone gets it, but I guess I'm lucky. I feel great and I keep my carbs roughly around 25 net. My question is, how many of you got this and how long did…

Are you losing on Keto or "shrinking" in a few places?
I'm at day 12 and have had no serious reactions like headache, stomach problems, etc. But I need new ways to put meals together because I'm getting bored. No hunger in sight for me. Feeling full Is definitely a benefit of having fats in every meal. I'm barely hitting my calorie goal every day. Thirst has caused me to drink…

Your favorite Keto foods
I'm fully embracing Keto! Since I'm just two weeks in, there are two things at the top of my mind: what I eat, and when I eat. I'm struggling slightly to keep my calories and fat up right now, because I don't feel hungry much anymore (thank you, Keto!) and also I'm not a huge fan of meat. However, I'm starting to get…

Cooking Question - Carbs in Marinade?
Hello All! I found a recipe for carnitas that I would like to try...the only problem is I am not sure if some of the ingredients count. The recipe calls for tossing the chunks of pork with oil, a quartered orange and lime, sliced jalapeño, onion, and garlic and baking everything together. Once the pork is cooked you…

Keto after surgery?
I started keto in January with much skepticism. 32lbs down and I'm a convert! I had surgery last week on my lumbar spine and have been wondering how this diet will affect the healing process. I don't want to lose progress but, I'm just wondering if there's anything I'm missing that's crucial to the healing process. Anyone…

No water loss on keto diet?
Hi, Does anyone experience no water loss during the first couple of weeks of the keto diet? If the strips are accurate, I've been on ketosis for most of that time. And according to my new scale almost all of that is from fat or muscle a bit but close to none from water. I do take Himalayan salt during the day for…

Supplements while on Keto?
Hi, I'm wondering what supplements people find useful while on Keto. I read that enzymes help with eating more protein and fat for those who didn't eat so much before. Besides multivitamin I'm wondering what is helpful. Thoughts on CLA? I also like Betaglucan as an immune booster. Specific suggestions will be super helpful.

Keto Friends Please
Hi. I've been around on MFP since 2012. I found keto in January of 2014. It worked so well that the felt melted off like crazy and my hormones were so balanced that I wound up preggo. So instead of making goal weight that year I grew a baby. And then there was the after pregnancy weight gain, which seems to be my pattern.…

New to the keto diet...Help with questions??
Hi guys, new here....This is my first time doing the keto diet. I have done Paleo/Whole30 in the past and done well but wanted to give Keto a try. Keto diet seems to be very similar to Whole30 outside of having dairy vs having fruit. My question is, like when it says we can have full fat ranch or mayo, what are we looking…

Just not hungry
I do an intermittent fast twice a week. Since starting a low carb, keto diet, I am just not hungry-this coming from someone who was ALWAYS hungry! It's amazing to me how carbs can f*** with your metabolism and your mind, making you think/feel that you're starving, when you're so over-nourished that you're killing yourself…

Fat Help?
Anyone have any high fat but low protein food options? I'm good on getting my protein in but I cant quite seem to high my fat goal without going over my protein goal. I went grocery shopping yesterday and did make sure to get meats with more fat on them.

Protein bombs?
I see a lot of recipes for fat bombs, but fats are never an issue for me. I get enough with cooking with olive oil or eating almonds or dark chocolate. I always have trouble hitting my protein goals for the day though. Are there any low fat high protein snack choices? Only things I can think of are pork rinds, hard boiled…
