Because I am elderly....73.... Dr. Said Miralax every morning and Senekot at bedtime. Works perfectly. No more problem with constipation.

My doctor said it is part of weight loss. I started Biotin. Time will tell.

PaleoinScotland I tried roasting my Jamaica Mountain beans and almost killed us with the noxious fumes. I do not recommend unless you know what you are doing in a highly ventilated space.

Sugar free instant mocha 1 1/2 tsp. 1tsp regular instant coffee. Dash of peppermint extract. DELICIOUS winter drink...1 x per day at most. Mostly, I am a hot green tea drinker. Bullet proof coffee once or twice a week is all I can handle.

I remember how delighted I was to break that 200# mark! Good for you. CONGRATULATIONS

Keto pie: cream cheese Heavy Whipping Cream Sugar free jello

I am not a coffee person, so had to start very slowly with BPC. One tsp fat. Now I am up to two TBSPS, but only drink it on days I am heading to the pool for a heavy duty workout. It will never be something I love, but it is tolerable. Averaging 4#'s per month for almost 8 months. Doctor and I are both happy.

Sending prayers and healing angels

My doctor encourages Miralax, Smooth Move Tea, and Sennakot. I noticed that I do not need any of that if I start the day off with Bulletproof Coffee. I hate coffee, so I only drink this stuff on days when I get great pool workouts. On travel days, lazy days, etc. I do what the doctor recommends and I am regular again. May…

Seven months in. No cheats! No cravings. I have even started bulletproof coffee.......I am a tea lover, so getting into the coffee thing has been baby steps. I will only drink BPC on solid aerobic exercise days because it still tastes vile to me. The caffeine would cause side effects if I did not head to the pool right…

I make one Ketogenic pie every week. Sugar free jello into one Cup boiling water. Stir til dissolved. Put in freezer for an hour. Meanwhile soften one 8 oz. full fat, low carb cream cheese. Add one Cup heavy whipping cream. Mix on high speed. Add chilled jello. Beat until thick. Put into 9" pie tin and chill two hours. Cut…

I never had a cheat day and I do not want one. Took six months to get this far. I sincerely want this to be lifestyle forever. Try to always keep carbs below 20g. The ones I do eat are fruit and or veggies. Still no cravings since I started in February. Not going to rush it. Praying to just go with the flow!

My doctor felt exactly the same! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

How do you add friends???

I eat one dozen organic free range eggs every week. Put in pan of cold water. Bring to boil. Stir frequently. Cook two minutes. Cover. Turn off heat. Let sit 30 minutes. Peel under cold water. Refrigerate. Every day, I cut one or two in half lengthwise. Put yellows in a small bowl. Add 1Tablespoon real mayonnaise per egg…

Welcome! I love Ketogenic and love this group for encouragement. No slips or cheats in five months. Thinking I can do this.

That is the most awesome looking taco shell. Fabulous! Bet it tastes yummy, too.

Anewlifeat40. I talked to my Dr. About those same symptoms. Ketogenic was helping lose weight, inches, blood levels, etc. the constipation, bloating, etc. were problematic. She suggested Smooth Move tea and Sennakot. So far, so good. Best of luck to you.

SW 200.8 CW 175 Carbs 5-9% No cheats. Consistent logging. Consistent pool workouts. Numbers in blood work getting consistently better.

Way to go!

Dear genmon00 My hubby is also a carb loving, sweet toothed, just right guy. He eats Ketogenic with me, plus any sweets he desires. I make a Sugar Free Jello Fluff for my refreshing dessert. No baking. Just jello dissolved in 1 cup boiling water. When cool and thickening, add to 1 package low carb cream cheese. Spoon into…

Ketogenic for four or five months. Losing approximately 8#'s per month. Numbers improved drastically. No cheat days, nor any desire to cheat. Pray I can stay consistent. Thank you for support.

Delicious, yummy HFLC food. Thank you. I, too, was tired of high carb pictures!

Twisted woman. I have been doing Ketogenic for four months now. At age 72, weight loss is slower, but my blood panel after three months says it is working. Good luck!

If my labs continue to show such awesome results, I will keep going! I love not craving sweets, especially chocolate.

I am a believer. No cravings, good numbers and slow, but steady weight and inch losses. Feel fantastic!

Trying to think of Ketogenic as a lifestyle change...not a diet. No cravings, no cheats so far. Praying to continue ...one day at a time. Down 17 lbs and a couple sizes. Feels good!

I seem to do the same thing. Of course the pattern is followed by deep remorse AFTER THE FACT! Heading to workout and work off instead of wallowing.

I make a very taste and healthy guacamole by peeling ripe / black colored avacados, mashing them with a fork, adding lime juice and minced onion to the right consistency. Delicious and easy. Pita chips, Scoops, etc.
