New to the group, not to keto eating.
Hello keto friends! My backstory is in my bio, which I keep open, so I won't bore you too much with the details. The reason I'm here is that my most successful time with weight, and more importantly, fat management/loss was when I followed a moderately strict keto diet. It was the only time I was sub 200lbs in my adult…

Keto and bathroom changes.....
Not to be disgusting, but has anybody else had bathroom changes to decreased amount, messy, wet, sometimes a lot of liquid in their bowel movements? I dont know what else might have changed, but I think they may be related. I have been keto 80/20 for the past few years, and I noticed the change when I went below 20 carbs…

Avocados? Great fat but what about the carbs?
Always have known avocados are a great food and high in good fat. I was reminded of that watching the 1hr video Keto panel review on bodybuilding.com. (Good video BTW) So picked up two medium sized avocados to add to my "Keto" lunch salad of baby greens w/chopped Prosciutto w/olive oil and apple cider vinegar. Entered the…

Four pounds in difference; up, of course. In the AM, I weighed a solid 218lbs, giving me a 10 lb loss over the course of 40 days. I was hoping to be…

Low carb "bread" or biscuit that DOESN'T taste like egg?
Does it exist? So far everything I've come across ends up having that omelette taste that I'm just frankly getting sick of. The last recipe was almond-flour based, with some coconut flour, and of course eggs. It ended up being half an egg per serving one baked and I find that makes it very eggy-tasting. Please no…

I have 240 cals left & 25 grams of fat left, but am at 21 carbs for the day---the kicker, the majority came from the broccoli I had at lunch? So when I say, is a carb a carb....am I…

Am I reading this right?
I just had 350 grams of boiled cauliflower with 1 tbsp of garlic butter for lunch. It states 13.6g of carbs with 6.8g of fiber, so I would only count the remaining 6.8g as the net carbs? ?

New to Keto. Am I losing too fast?
Tuesday morning I decided to start keto. My net carbs are 25-30, high fat, relatively high protein. My calories are low at around 1200-1300. I weighed 176 on Monday and now I'm 173 on Saturday. Should I be concerned about muscle loss? I'm drinking a ton of water and consuming extra salt, so I doubt that it is dehydration.…

I've also read within the Keto community that saturated fats have no link to heart disease.…
