Because my bloods are being done fortnightly/monthly and my medication is increased/decreased based on the results. He wants to see will keto have any benefit or impact. If it does benefit obviously the "diet" will be long term. He gave me a basic rundown but I want menu ideas or sample snack foods when I get cravings

Thanks very much for all the responses they are really helpful :smiley: I had meat and veg yesterday for dinner but I ate loads of peas! I didn't realize they were high carb until I logged it but otherwise I've been fine, I hope! How do I know if my body is in ketosis? Sorry for all the silly questions. I really want to…

Thank you Mistyboggs I used to do intermittent fasting but stopped when I was pregnant. I'm hoping the keto diet will control blood sugars and help other conditions. What kind of meats are low carb? And are all veg (except potatoes,carrots) safe? Thank you

It was suggested by a doctor to help control my blood sugars and help with my colitis

Thanks very much Tom :) I'm only going up and down by a pound or 2 dont want to lose too much and definitely don't want to gain! :)

Yes! I have such mental cravings for chocolate and just had a baby 3 months ago so can't use pregnancy as an excuse anymore! Lol but yeah fibre! Tons of water, low calorie cereal bars and simply don't buy the bad stuff if its not there you can't have it! :)

Yock I hate dark chocolate! Sorry :p :D

Thanks very much for replies :) I am eating a lot of chocolate I've ate loads today but that is my problem if I can cut the chocolate to even once a week I'll be doing well :) will add more protein thanks for the advice

I log drinks as with meals but water is just water drink when your thristy :)

I am always starving leading up to period! Lol I'll eat all I want as long as I don't go over calorie intake :)

There's a website where you can calculate your TDEE and tells you how much roughly you should be eating based on your exercise :)
