🦗* crickets * The leader of the group hasn’t been on MFP since 2015 lol and no 2020 discussions. I just started keto about 4 days ago. It’s been pretty good, one day I had a headache but other than craving something sweet most nights it’s been good. Let’s re awaken this group!

Still new to Keto - Logging Carbs on MFP?
Hi all, so I used the Keto calculator on ruled.me site. My limit for carbs is 20g net. However, when I enter food in my diary, it selects the total carbs and not net. For instance: I just drank an Atkins Milk Chocolate Delight shake. It contains 5g total carbs and 3 of fiber. MFP logged 5g in my diary. Am I missing…

Breathalyzer for Ketosis Check
So I've read on r/keto that you can use a cheap breathalyzer to test for acetone on the breath which indicates your level of ketosis. The trick is to use a cheap, crappy alcohol breathalyzer to test and not an expensive fancy one. The cheap ones can't tell the difference between alcohol and acetone, the good ones (like the…

Getting back on Keto
So my life has taken a complete turn around. I went from being active and staying on track but all that changed last year. I had neck surgery which has now disabled me. I'm limited in walking,standing, bending, pulling and pushing. Max weight limit is 10lbs. Starting over and hoping to find some support or success stories.

A little backstory: In July of 2017 I was 308 pounds and my wife and I started keto after meeting some friends of a friend who told us about it. After extensive online research I told my wife I thought it was safe to try. Six months later I had lost 88 pounds, she had lost 60 and we felt and looked great. That was December…

Eat all the fat% with 100+ to lose?
I'm 5'3" 277lbs (insulin resistant/PCOS). Do I need to really eat 70% fat since I have so much body fat? I did read somewhere that as long as I meet the other 2 macros, fat intake didn't matter. With that said, according to BB's calculator, I should be at 1700 cal for weight loss. Is that advisable with my keto macros? I…

Keto Women: Cycle Issues?
Hey ladies, this question is for you. Have any of you noticed a change in your cycle since being on keto? ie heavier or lighter periods, early or late on timing? Just curious if its affected you at all and if it was just a change in the beginning or it kept fluctuating.

Question for the ladies!
I've been doing Keto for about two weeks now. Already lost 13lbs and feeling better all together. On Sunday, I started my cycle and told myself not to, but did my weekly weigh-in on Monday. I gained 2lbs. I know that bloating is part of it, but have any of you noticed a weight gain on your cycle or a stall in weight loss?…

Emergency meal: Keto Cheeseburger at McD's
I discovered a great option for LCHF, if you MUST eat a Fast Food meal away from home. McDonald's have a "Daily Double" item…2 burgers, a cheese slice, mayo, lettuce, tomato slice, onions. Just REMOVE the buns…and eat. Brought mine home, and wrapped burger in Romaine leaves, added my own sliced avocado, and slice of…

Great Science on Keto/LCHF Diets!!
It is almost shocking how much anger is aimed at overweight people consuming a high fat, low carb diet. Since it is the heaviest people who benefit the most, sparing them diabetes, blindness, limb loss, and early death, let alone BP meds, heart disease, and increasing ability to physically move…well, you'd think everyone…

Mid-200's, and on my way down
I'm kind of ashamed to admit this, but when I started this journey, I was 269.4 lbs (gross - 5'2"...), and my measurements were: Neck - 16.5" Waist - 49.5" Hips - 54" Arms - 16.5" I had just quit smoking, so my metabolism had slowed drastically, causing me to put on 12 pounds, and making it harder to take it back off.

I followed a keto or lchf diet for 2 years and lost 20 lbs but was unable to lose more (at the time I had 60 to lose). Although I felt great, much healthier, I still wanted to lose weight. I switched to a program with prepackaged food that is low carb,low fat, and have lost 40 lbs. I now want to switch back to keto so that…

Some personal thoughts about rewarding yourself
"What are you doing to reward yourself for hitting your goals?" It is a fairly common post and the answers are pretty much new clothes, a night out, or dinner somewhere. Maybe it is my age, maybe I've been there done that one too many times, I don't know. I've changed my thinking regarding what an actual reward is. At 10…

Let's Talk about....hitting plateau
I had 40 lbs WHOOSH away in four months. Then the plateau hit. I've been patiently waiting for it to end, sticking to what I've been doing for the past two months. :/ It's been long enough.

Post the differences you are noticing in how you feel
This morning I woke up and all my joint pain was gone. Normally I'm popping aspirin and hobble around because my knees, ankles, and feet feel like they are sprained. I don't care if it is water weight, inflammation going away, or actual fat loss. Feeling good, now that's the ticket.
