Can’t seem to get into ketosis
Hi, I’m having a very hard time getting into ketosis. I eat well with in my macros but I have a feeling I have been eating to much fat.

Net Carb Question
Here's a question for the nutritionists out there: If I have a meal that has "higher" carbs (i.e. say 45 g carbs), can I consume a fiber supplement to help offset the higher carb meal? Kinda like applying the "net carb" rule?

Recalculating #'s...assistance needed...
When I started keto 5 weeks ago, I was at 206.8lbs. As of this morning I am down to 192.4lbs. I understand that I have to recalculate my macros every so often (10lbs or so?) I used the keto calculator, but they all give different numbers. I put myself as sedentary with a 20% deficit, and these were my numbers: 1400kcals…

Body Scan Data: Why Protein is so important
Each month I share my body scan data to encourage MFP members to look past the bathroom scale. Due to a promo, I now have the opportunity to scan twice a month for the rest of the year which allows me to react quicker to macro intake. My first two weeks of the month I failed to consume my needed protein intake due to…

Tracking sugar versus carbs
For tracking keto carbs, the myfitness defaults to total carbs e.g. that includes fibre. How do I track sugar carbs instead of total carbs? Or do keto people do low fibre as well in order to keep their carbs down?

Slow Carb/Macro decrease to Keto?
So I have been really interested in doing Keto for a little while now. I did Whole30 last year, and good golly, if Keto flu is anything like that "detox" period, holy moly, I'll pass. What I haven't read about, or know if anyone has tried, is slowly decreasing my carb macros from 50-60% (my daily average) and slowly…

recipes, carbs, and spices
when you are creating foods for tracking, do you include the spices used (e.g. garlic, paprika, thyme, rosemary) or do you leave them out since the calorie and carb impact is, generally, minimal-to-non-existent? I have been leaving them in and finding some items have carbs that I would not have expected (or at least not…
