Dannon Oikos triple zero Greek yogurt. Sweetened with stevia. Wishing they didn't take all the fat out, but it is yummy 14 total carbs with 6 of fiber. Tastes good enough to be a desert.

How stressful! Hope things are on the mend

HahahahahahahHahahahha @RalfLott

Please share recipe and if you liked them. Sounds good

Ditto above....

I got a kitchen scale to weigh everything I make. If you measure/weigh everything you make prior to processing it, add those things to the recipe in MFP and then figure out how you want to set up a serving, that could work. For example: jerky: create a recipe, add steak 1 pound prior to drying, add the seasoning...…

Yay me! I was on plan for my camping trip. I did not gain over the weekend. I didn't lose either, but I imagine that will change this week as I get my sodium back to where it needs to be.

I use the Keto calculator to figure out what I should aim for.. then use carb grams as a max, protein grams as a 'do my best to met' and fat grams as a 'filler' to make me not hungry ( so up to that number of grams, but not 'gotta get it' kind of thing).

I second above statements

Thanks for trying it. I like avacado on my sandwiches, but not by themselves. I tried a avacado pudding with the same issue as the brownie.

I do when I'm first going into ketosis. (I have been off and on plan a number of times and that it happens to me every single time).

high carb and high fat are not a good combo... it has to do with the insulin response and what it does with the dietary fat. Are they 'junk' carbs(candy, chips,processed) or OK carbs? You would essentially be following a CICO diet, which some people lose on.

making it through the camping trip with no 'cheats' and still on plan.

Is it a 'head' hunger or a 'stomach' hunger? Is it that you don't feel 'satisfied'? Defining the type of hunger helps me figure out what I need to change.

and one more.... Watch out for the keto-flu.... http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10358179/low-sodium-and-keto-flu-electrolyte-imbalance-may-be-your-problem#latest

in this post: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10444392/maintaining-as-a-keto-runner#latest I really found her before and after picture motivational. It was a zombie thread, but still awesome.

That's funny, I just had the sausage gravy this morning. I saw a picture of some on FB yesterday and got the cravings for it. I found a few online and then did my own thing. 2oz sausage-- cook it up and crumble it. I then put 1 tsp bacon grease in the pan too. added: 1/4 cup cream 1/4 cup chicken stock 1/8 tsp onion powder…

Gross not Net. You have to subtract fiber(and sugar alcohols) for net

I think it depends on where you live. In the US, no.

And how do they taste?

Is your goal to not use artificial sweeteners? How are you concerning espresso vrs. Coffee? We bought our own espresso machine. I steam one cup of unsweetened coconut milk mixed with two tbs heavy cream. I add 1/2 tablespoon unsweetened coco powder and one packet of Truvia with my espresso shots and then mix in the milk. I…

I saw one like this... I think they sliced it, put it on paper towels and put salt in them. Then they rolled it up and set it in the fridge for awhile to get some moisture out.

@PaulaJSchiller you can adjust your stride in fitbit... http://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1135

I don't eat back the calories if it is just a 'workout'. I consider that a bonus towards weight loss. I normally have a exercise calorie bonus of 50-200 a day. I also looked back and noticed that I had a couple 1000 calorie days of food eaten( I don't eat if I'm not hungry). I'm just wondering if my hunger today is from…

I don't see it listed yet.. bun-less burger. Always quick and easy. I like cheese on mine and you can fancy it up a bit with another garnishments(grilled onion, mushrooms, mayo, etc)

I like Atkins egg salad this week 8 large eggs 1/2 cp real mayo 3 tsps Dijon mustard 1/2 tsp salt 1/4 tsp pepper I left out the celery it calls for.

I thought this was a nice article on https://ketodietapp.com/Blog/post/2013/04/16/Keto-flu-and-Sufficient-Intake-of-Electrolytes

I can't understand why they are doing that...
