Ugh. I feel better when I'm lying down, but I can feel the palpitations if I get up and walk around. Sigh.

The palpitations are still there, just not as strong as before. I drank a cup of chocolate milk (400mg of potassium in it) and I got a headache, but I feel a tad better. I feel like if I was about to get a nasty cold. If the palpitations are not gone by tomorrow, I'll go to the ER. I don't think I should go right now, but…

I drank a cup of Swiss miss chocolate milk, laid down and I'm feeling better. Headache now, but the palpitations are not so strong anymore. *sigh*

No, I'm not. I have one cup of coffee in the morning and that's it. Other than that, my foods for the day. I think she knows Keto because she asked me if I've heard about (insert name of the condition here). I don't remember exactly what she called it, I've never heard about it before. But asked me if my urine was ok and…

I'm going to wait for her call and see what she says, she specifically told me not to take potassium, why? I don't know. I'm going to try upping my carbs and see how I feel. thank you all for your messages!

I saw my doctor today, she told me not to take potassium supplements, but go on vitamins and calcium supplement. She told me if my tests came back alright, she wouldn't be calling me. If something's wrong, I should probably be hearing from her tomorrow. I've had two or three EKG done in the last year and everything was…

@leonidas_and_spartacus‌ I want to go back to playing roller derby, I also wanted to run the tough mudder in Vegas this year and I'm getting back in shape to join the service.

I had the worst night last night. I was feeling unusually tired and when I went to bed, as I was falling asleep I stared having heart palpitations and my shoulder/neck muscles were really tired. I started taking magnesium/calcium and potassium supplements yesterday. Started with 500mg calcium, 200mg magnesium citrate and…

@GrannyMayOz‌ well, It's hard for me to notice any shortness of breath, I've had breathing problems for the past 8 months, just to find out a couple months ago that I had allergies, (been on several inhalers and whatnot), now I'm taking claritin and singulair daily and my breathing issues were improving but I wasn't 100%,…

@rkufeke That's what happened to me yesterday, I've done that hike before, better and faster. But yesterday we took a lower trail, about 400ft elevation gain compared to our previous 1000+ and 20 mins in I wanted to cry and quit. I skipped my hike for today and went for a walk instead, my muscles are still sore but I'm…

While reading about magnesium supplements I found a few places where it recommends not to take those pills for longer than a week, anyone knows anything about this?

thank you @gsp90x‌ ! That's very helpful. I started taking magnesium and calcium supplements, I'll see my dr next week and hopefully get some answers as to where I'm at right now. I cancelled my hike for today, I don't want to suffer again lol. Thanks for all your help guys!

btw, is there any way for MFP to show how much potassium you've consumed in a day? I can't find it anywhere.

I guess I could give it a break if necessary. I bought magnesium and calcium supplements yesterday. I have the 99mg potassium pills, I've read on a forum a guy was taking 20 of those a day, I'm not a pill lover, I avoid all pills and meds as much as I can so it'd be weird for me. I'm guessing potassium is the hardest one…

@Lrdoflamancha‌ I'm not saying I'm keto adapted or asking if I am. I asked this because I want to know what can I do to fix this, from people that been in the same spot. I can't afford to stop working out, so I need to know if it's fixable by taking pills or if it'll disappear on its own. I've read different things online…

I'm 28 years old, 20g carbs a day is my limit, I rarely reach 20, it's usually less, been on Keto for two weeks and a day, I've had (and still do) that huge extra energy since day 4, but that's not what I'm worried about. My muscles hurt a lot when exercising, hiking is killing me and I didn't have tht problem before. I've…

I have the fitbit charge HR and it works great for me, I wear it 24/7 (except showers) and charge it once every two weeks aprox. I did a lot of research before getting one because there are plenty that are a waste of money or they're just not reliable. Charge HR does its job very very well for what it costs, it's heart…

This is what I read today: "We do not advise people to do high dietary fat above their protein in weight loss phases, and as stated above it takes time to adapt to any macro changes. High dietary fat in the absence of adequate protein will not help you lose body fat." So one member mentioned that high fat med protein works…

thank you! you're all amazing :DDDD

@mistizoom The group is called "Ketogenic Dieters" and it currently has 11,552 members. They're part of "the keto admin council", whatever that is. I'm new to the group, so no idea.

I was surprised because the group has 11k members and they give that information for all the new people.

I'll try today. Thanks!

No vitamins, I just take Claritin once a day and singulair at night, also for my allergies.

It says Biotin 300mcg.

Just liquid stevia and vanilla extract. http://m.sugarfreemom.com/3bj18nw/articles/97304/Sugar-Free-Chocolate-Peanut-Butter-Easter-Eggs-Dairy-Free-

Ah. Mh. Well, I updated my macros 3 days ago on my computer, using those two addons to be able to see net carbs and personalize your macros from % to g. I don't know if that works.

I'm only on day 7 and tried making chocolate mousse a few days ago but it was weird. I got some stevia today, some bakers chocolate and I'm gonna start looking into those fat bombs. Also, I saw this sugar free chocolate peanut butter recipe on fb today so I'm definitely going to try it!

Aww I miss baking so much. I got some supplies today to start baking Keto friendly foods. We'll see how that goes :/

That's the one I used for this number. I'm surprised MFP told me I should eat 1240 cals in order to lose 1.5lbs every week but the calculator tells me that deficit is way too high.

Question for you guys, I've been feeling great so far, except for the last two days when I've noticed my energy going down a bit, not as much as before I started LCHF, but I'm not as hype. I've also woken up two mornings in a row with my stomach feeling a bit off... Both nights before bed I've had 2tbsp of peanut butter I…
