Keto and mood swings
I’ve been on Keto a little over 2 weeks. I think I’ve passed the “keto flu” stage but I’m super moody. I know I’m cranky and sometimes this last 2 weeks I’ve been mad at everything with no reason. Is this normal? Does it go away? Anything I can do to make it less intense?

Really struggling...
I've been trying keto again for a week now but I'm starving. I can't do the super high fat like others do because of no gall bladder so I'm at about 60% fat. I'm trying to drop a few holiday pounds and most of them are off but I feel like crying I'm so hungry. I wish it worked for me. Think I'll be back to low cal shortly…

Question keto to low carb
I see a lot people on the Keto groups say they're back. Fell off wagon, gained weight back... When you get off keto, does the weight come back quickly, like as soon as you get more carbs in? Has anyone lost weight with Keto (15-25 net carbs) and edged into low carbs (75-150 net carbs) and maintained successively? Or are…

Testing Effects of Diet Soda
Anyone done any testing on how diet soda effects BG and ketone levels? I would be interested in your results. I just got a ketomojo meter so this morning I decided to test it as I'm definitely a big diet soda (especially coke zero) drinker. I'm always seeing articles about how bad these are for you, but they don't seemed…

Reading Keto Diastix
Hi guys, sorry if this has been asked before.. The Keto Diastix have a 8 colours.... is the top the best result or should I be somewhere in the middle? I am current around the 40 mark (moderate). Should I be aiming to get higher?

The smell of sugar
Am I just weird or is anyone else super sensitive to the smell of processed sweets after being on Keto for a while? It’s not like I’m drooling at the mouth for them...I’m over the cravings (most of the time) but I can really smell the sugar more then I could before. I can smell the donuts in the break room before I turn…

Type II and starting keto
Hi All- Im new here. After much reading and research (and anxiety), Ive decided to begin keto with 2 main goals. 1. consistent low blood sugars and eventually without needing medication and 2. weight loss. I've been low carb since last Aug off and on but hit a plateau after a 15 lb loss. After months of back and forth…

New Keto - Returning MFP member!

Net Carb Tracking
Hi, I am happy to join this group. As I am new to the app, I would like to know if there is a way to track my net carb intake rather than both Fiber & Sugar. I have just gone premium and can't find the feature. Thank you.

Falling off the wagon...
I have not been logging my food in for the better part of this month...but since I pretty much eat the same things...I feel like I am still staying under 20g net...although I am sure my calories are higher than normal... This past week though, I have been more careless and letting allowing myself to eat things that are not…

Keto friends
Hi!! Started keto June 11, 2019 and absolutely love it. Dropping inches, hormonal changes, energy, never hungry. I have a really nice friends list going of other ketoers and low carbers. I'm kind of a nerd who gets a little too enthusiastic. But there's something comforting about opening up with others on here who can…

Vodka and Keto weight loss
I been on Keto plan for 4 or 5 weeks and have been drinking vodka. I have not begun losing. Is the vodka throwing me out of ketosis? My macros are around 35 carbs65 protein and 96 fat and I have been given 1220 calories but been keeping caloric deficit to below 1000 calories. Please advise!

Macro Calculator
Hello! I have been relying on MFP and the assumption that keto is supposed to require more fat than protein. I decided to search for macro calculators and I used 7 different site calculators including the Ketogains Calculator. They ALL have my suggested protein as higher than my fat. Have I need doing keto wrong this…

Vacation from Keto
In my last year of being Keto I’ve had no problem navigating special occasions, business trips, holidays and family gatherings. I truly find Keto to be pretty easy. But for beach week we decided to purposely go off Keto and eat some garbage. Think of it as a delicious scientific experiment! Lol so I’m home, six pounds…

What Nobody Tells You About Losing Weight on the KETO diet
Saw this under success stories on main paige and thought it’d be fun to try here... Here’s one that had surprised me (1/2 through to goal). I lost a lot of weight a few years ago and one of the things that freaked me out was all the wrinkles that showed up around my eyes out of nowhere. I gained a bit back I think now…

Staying true to Keto during travel
Hi All- I will be traveling to Rwanda in a couple of weeks and staying for two weeks. I will not be in the capital but in a more rural area. I am researching food options currently but am also making a list of things I can take with me such as nut butters, pure protein drinks, keto bars etc. Any suggestions on what I might…

Stalled?
I started keto 5 weeks ago. Dropped 10lbs the first week! However, since then my weight loss has slowed down drastically. (It doesn't help that my scale changes if you move it 1/4 inch in either direction.) I started at 260lbs and just weighed in at 243lbs. I'm ecstatic about my weight loss but was wondering how you can…

Not losing on keto
This is the end of week 2. week one I lost close to 3 lbs and then this week gained 1.5. I am so frustrated. I dont know what else to do or what else to tweak. It so frustrating to see other significant losses happen for others and not me. I am trying so very hard. My life depends on it. I did not track for the last 2 days…
