I'm sure I can tighten that up. I do count like with nuts....like I'll count 17 out, etc... With butter I cut the line that says tablespoon etc.... I use the cups if I need to use cups for something, one slice of cheese is gone slice of cheese, lunch meat I definitely estimate if I eat that. But I'm sure that's not *perfect

Doubtful. But I work in a pharmacy, so it was a discussion we had and I explained why she was drinking the HWC. His opinion was absolutely not. He said to wait until her next meal. Felt the KCL would hurt her stomach without more nutrients. But obviously we all do what works for ourselves that's just what he said.

It works for me. When I feel like I'm starting to get sick I take it. Sugar or not, I've done it for years so I don't really mind. It's probably only about twice a year that I need it. So in those times I'm not really worried about the sugar in them. I work in a hospital and can't remember the last time I got sick. Sure…

I get what you're saying and I can appreciate it. However fundamentally for me it is about losing weight. Besides the genetic high cholesterol I don't have any health issues.... That I am aware of. (My mom, my grandma, all my siblings, we all have it, yet interestingly no one has had heart attacks, or heart disease) (Knock…

I take emergen-c every time I feel like I'm getting sick I load up on it. I never actually get sick. It's my magic packet. For every day vitamins I just got the ones from Doterra. And I think they are excellent!!!!!

Man I've never had any of this stuff! I'll have to look for it.

Such helpful information. I'm definitely not going to "give up" because I do believe in this way of eating. And I'm doing it also for my cholesterol, I'm very curious to get my blood work done in May! But it is a frustration to me to be it adhering to something so strictly and still having trouble. I'm a results driven…

Today I did forgo (sp?) the BPC and had eggs and bacon. Which I was STARVING for. I feel like I'm in a constant state of experimentation with the WOE. But I'm trying :)

Last night I made a grilled cheese with Muenster and Turkey on oopsie bread and it was shockingly delicious!

Me too! Every night :)

No.... Unfortunately it doesn't! At least according to my pharmacist he says absolutely not.

I use my ninja the smoothie one, for my morning BP coffee. I feel like I'm having a luxurious Starbucks every morning. So rich and frothy and amazing. Can't believe I was so scared to try it. It also makes it so I don't have to eat anything until about 1 o'clock. I'm only at about a teaspoon and a half of the butter and…

If I keep my sodium levels up and supplement magnesium, my potassium levels shouldn't fall anyhow should they? I need to do some more research. All I know is I just cannot wake up another night with Charlie horses! This morning it woke me up at 4 AM and I wasn't able to go back to sleep :/ and they are ridiculously painful!

This is the only other thing I take, and I take it every day. As far as potassium I do eat an avocado probably twice a week. But that's about it.

Thank you I'll check that out. But in other news I'm quite happy because I just shaved two minutes off my best mile time tonight!

No I do not use a scale but I do measure out my food

And my macros are about 70% fat, 10% carb the rest protein. Maybe that's not good

I keep them at 1300 a day and I don't eat any of my "exercise calories"

The links are also helpful for me. Seems like there's a lot of discouragement going around today. I'm feeling extremely discouraged today I think I'm at seven weeks now. (wrapping up 7) This week I had a half a pound gain! I cut out all nuts two weeks ago, I may have had two slices of cheese in the last two weeks. I've had…

Thanks! I do have all those ingredients actually. Right down to the liquid smoke :)

Lol I see

It just seems kind of hard to wrap my brain around, and I guess I just need to do further research. But it seems like you can't get into ketosis unless you're under 20 carbs a day, pretty much. And if you don't get into ketosis your body really isn't burning fat for fuel it's still burning carbs? So that to me sounds like…

FYI when I said I don't see how it's possible I wasn't saying I don't believe you :-) I'm just amazed that that they can offer that! Lucky bum you are!

That is a ridiculously good deal!! I'm quite jealous! I don't even see how it's possible. I recently was going to get a food delivery service for my family of six they deliver six months of organic or grass fed, (something like that... The good stuff) anyhow they deliver six months at a time and my cost was going to be…

That is really awesome. Congratulations to you!

Me too, I usually make a couple of them every few days and have it as a snack at night. My kids even ask for them. I just melt them under the broiler in my oven. When I had Super Bowl I made up a bunch of them to use for the dips and stuff like that....delicious!!!

Thanks for the info. I would do it with salted butter also. I haven't done the bulletproof coffee yet, (it honestly sounds atrocious to me, and I don't really feel like I need the added calories because I'm in weight-loss mode) but I have my coffee in the morning with cream and then try not to eat until about noon. I might…

Awesome, thank you, I definitely will give this a try

I'll check it out, thanks. I've always roasted them or puréed them. Yum.
