Hi, I am 52 years young and did keto for 6 months and lost a 18lbs. I fell off this December as life is too short not to enjoy yourself but I only gained 4lb in the whole of December to today. I am going back to it tomorrow 7/1/19 my macros are 5% total carbs 20% protein and 75% fat. I am on my way out of menopause and I…

how do I add people as friends when in the community ?

update. I upped my calories and started losing weight straight away.... lost over a stone now but fell off for christmas but going straight back on starting 7th January

I am not sure how you set up group either but would like too. I have the free mfp so all I do is go into my goals and change the % settings. I am in the Uk so I do total carbs which is what mfp gives you. I would love to support you and visa-versa please add me as a friend. What ratios are you working on? as I mentioned I…

how do I add you as friends ? I have lost 14lbs on keto fell off for christmas but will be starting again on 7th Jan. my percentages are 5% total carbs, 20% protein and 75% fat calories are 1350 per day.... I am from the UK

I use bulk powders mct powder .... no taste and you can put it in anything

you will be great mrs_BF .... just take one day at a time

Hi lizward, I am 5ft 7" and in the middle of menopause and keto has stopped all side effects which is great as I do not take anything for menopause symptoms. I IF from 7pm to 1pm the following day. I too need the fat to keep me satisfied especially when I am burning 500-800 calories when exercising. Being 51 also does not…

I have been on keto since the end of january and feel like I am losing the battle. I initially lost weight, then gained it back again although I followed and logged everything but.... I have lost fat%. It is so frustrating because I have used several keto calculators and I have used the average macros and calorie count.…

22/4/18 - body fat % going down every day ... today down to 43.3 .....so why no weight loss ?

20% protein not 30% sorry

just to keep you updated ..... I have stuck to calories, macros and have exercised..... I have continued to gain weight so from 22 jan 18 I have only lost 3lb.... I am thinking of coming off keto which is like a smack in the face as I really thought this diet/lifestyle was the one for me ..... the only thing which has…

I am on 1290 calories a day (5% carbs - 75% fat - 30% protein) and I find it hard to get my fat% ... I have trouble sticking to the protein as I find it easy to get to total%. I must admit I end up using mct powder in coffee, omelets, and keto chocolate shakes. (I have completely gone off coconut oil)

thanks to you all .... diet is really good, sticking to it and keeping below my calories and macros .... I am just not losing weight ! I exercise 5/7 days and normally burn 500-700 calories .... it just does not make sense unless it really is down to the menopause...... mid way through and only get hot flushes but boy do I…

hubby created my account for me hence the tag name hahaha I have never changed it ! thank you for replying

I use a tablespoon of powdered mct in my bullet proof coffee

today I made my bullet proof coffee with mct powder and it was so much better in taste however it does have 2g carbs and only 7g of fat compared with the coconut oil which has no carbs and 14g of fat ......

when I work out my food for the day I input my main dinner first and add the salad or veg I want to eat as I get my carbs from my veg. I then go to my lunch and see what macros I have left. I struggle with keeping to the protein % rather than the carb % as I like my chicken and sticking to 100g for a main dinner is hard…

what about mct powder ? I use the one from bulk powders - btw that is also where I buy my sugar free syrups

fell off keto diet last night :-( went out for meal and had tomato and basil soup with local bakery doorstop fresh bread followed by steak, chips and onion rings all washed down with a bottle of wine..... fell down toilet this morning ........ feel bloated so what did I do .... ate toast ! decided as I have family…

thank you I will up my calories :)

what do you think of the keto calculators ? and what % are you using ?

In the Uk we have zero noodles which is made from the Konjac Plant and they do rice as well. They do smell when you first take them out of the packet but you rinse them and the smell goes. I think they are great when you are having a hungry day and don't want to add calories or carbs or protein in your daily allowance but…

I have been doing keto for the last 8 weeks and am only 5lb down. I am keeping to macros and exercising 5/7 feeling frustrated that no weight is coming off. My diary is open if anyone wants to be friends and be accountable. I am in the UK and we count total carbs and we do not have as much low carb or low sugar products…

Hi I'm Lorraine and I do intermittent fasting 5 days a week from 7pm to 1pm the following day because I exercise in the mornings and scientists have proven that if you exercise on an empty stomach your body uses your fat stores to get the energy for the exercise you use. I have been doing keto for nearly 8 weeks but I am…

help keto in the UK.... do you count total carbs or net carbs ? I have tried doing keto for the last 6 weeks, I lost 10lb but have put on 4lb !!!! due to I think not really understanding my macros and not once did my urine sticks say that I was in ketosis. I am restarting keto tomorrow including exercise and hopefully…

thank you. I just used one of the calculators i found online

I set my fitbit to workout and I have good calorie burn between 300 and 400 each workout... in fact I have been doing 21df for a week now and have lost 3lb and 13.5 inches
