Sushi Restaurant
SO I'm VERY new to Keto. As in I just started today and have been researching it for about a week now. I've got a lunch date with my friend in a few days and we are going to a sushi restaurant. I'm curious about what you guys suggest I get? I'm not really a fan of the raw fish so I usually go for shrip or crab. But will…

Lettuce?
hello! I've been trying keto for a few days and I've noticed that butterhead lettuce on MFP contains only 2grams of Carbs per cup and all of that is fiber! So in my mind, since I'm counting net carbs=total carbs- fiber I could eat as much of it as I want. Is that the correct way of looking at it or not? I've been enjoying…

Snack creations
Just thought it would be interesting, and informative, for us to share our concoctions. I absolutely love butter and heavy cream so most of my snacks revolve around these ingredients. Today I mixed up a chicken bullion cube with some hot water, from the Kuerig, heavy cream, and a dollop of butter. It was AMAZING.

Carbs vs Net Carbs
I'm new to keto and I have been struggling with what my actual numbers should be - or as I think they're meant to be called, macros. I've seen various formulas and I think I've gotten a number in mind but then worry maybe it's too low. With that said, I've also seen conflicting info when it comes to carbs. Do you count…

fave zero carb alcoholic drinks?
I'm supposed to meet a coworker out for drinks tomorrow night. Anyone have any suggestions other than vodka and water with lime? Note: I have completely eliminated caffeine and sugar and sweeteners out of my diet (for my own reasons) so this one is tricky. I am 1.5 weeks caffeine and sweetener free and I feel flipping…

New to Keto - What are folks eating?
Hi everyone, so I have only been at this a couple of weeks and have been doing pretty good with what I have been eating, well I think I have. I was using a different app to track my food but have switched to MFP. I have a bit (ok a fair bit) of weight I would like to lose. I like to think that's not why I made this change,…

New to Keto
After some research and talking to a lot of people I put myself (and my kids) on the keto diet starting today. My kids don’t need to lose weight and I don’t expect them to stick to it (other outside foods). However it was the easiest to just work keto family meals for them and I. Anyhow, my goal is to get from 253lbs to…

Celexa and Keto
Anybody here take Celexa (I'm prescribed 40 mg) and do Keto? I take it for anxiety, and I'm worried about potentially low potassium/magnesium from keto with possible drug side effects (it can cause abnormal heart rhythms in higher doses). I overthink everything, now you can see why I am on anxiety medication. Lol. Thanks.
