HELP! protein problems
Hi all. I'm pretty new to Keto (ab 2 weeks in) and learning. I have had good results thus far, but I'm having a really hard time getting my protein up to where it should be each day.

Ready to SCREAM!
I'm so tired of this. I'm fat-adapted, ketosis levels are between 2.3 and 3.0 and my blood glucose is in the low 80's, which means my GKI still needs work, but it's doing okay. I started this journey at 320. Lost the first 20pounds like everyone else in the first four weeks, but that was in Feb., and I've been flucuating…

Born for Keto
New to community, group, and fairly new to keto. I read a lot of posts and talk to a lot of people who tried keto and couldn't do it, because they say it's too restrictive. For me, I only ever added rice, potatoes, beans, and pasta to meals as fillers (ironically thinking we wouldn't get full off of just meats and veggies…

Trying out Keto again!

Veggie Carbs

Suggestions for Calories
I am having a problem eating enough calories on this diet. I find myself not very hungry and kind of forcing food. Especially at night, I look at MFP and realized I've only had 600-700 calories for the day, and then force myself to eat (even though still satisfied from lunch). Any suggestions for extremely high calorie,…
