Yes, I notice a great improvment in inflammation on Keto. I can't speak for everyone but that is one of my main reasons for going Keto.

I do ketovore but keep my protein moderate as it affects my blood glucose levels.

I don't change my macros until the weight I lose says I have to. I wish I could help you.

Hi, I've been on keto before and I did very well with it. However, 6 months ago I developed an extremely painful brachial neuropathy. I laid in bed for 6 weeks barely able to move then a couple of months of recovery. I was unable to move my arm or lift anything. So, no ability to cook, no keto. I've gained back all the…

My cravings seem to come and go. For weeks I had this crazy craving for a muffin, even before I wasn't a muffin eater. So I decided to make a low carb banana loaf. One slice and my cravings disappeared. Weird. Also, I find if I'm craving I will go hard on the protein. It generally seems to help. Even if I go a bit over…

I just found this article about keto and migraines and thought I may post it but how handy. http://bloomsmag.com/less-carbs-more-fat-ketogenic-diet-makes-migraine-patients-headaches-disappear/

Have a wonderful time. You're right, this is a way of living. Live life!

Jjust keep doing what you're doing. Without knowing what kind of tips you want it's kinda hard to narrow it down.

Mushroom soup. I make this in a one serving size. 200 grams mushrooms coarsely chopped. 1 tsp butter. Saute Add 1 cup water 1 tsp bouillion 1/4 cup cream Add liquids to pan of mushroom, let cook 5 minutes on low heat. Serve.

I've spent the last two months being sick with summer flu. Two of them and both nasty. When I first started keto i felt amazing. My mood was brighter, I was stoked and happy. These illnesses have really knocked the stuffing out of me. I have stayed on plan with a couple of oopses. I took two halls cough drops over the…

I love feeling in control of what I eat. This is a new experience, I don't ever want to or have to feel like that again.

It looks like you had a wonderful time. I hope you came back feeling relaxed and happy.

I am so happy for you! It is so wonderful to share your happiness, thank you and Happy Ketoversary. :)

Yes you need to subtract the fibre. There is a program you can download, that will make net carbs show up on your food page maybe someone hear can direct you to that, but until then, subtract the carbs.

Thanks! July was kinda tough being sick and finding out 1 cough drop had 30 grams of carbs, I had two the first day. eek. But Keto is so awesome.

Welcome and I hope you do awesome! :)

The subject size of the "experiment" is 1, meaning you. You are your own experiment.

I'm not sure, except for when I had bronchitis, I never went over 22 grams in a day and those couple of days were oopses.

Congratulations! I hope to get there someday too!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks Dr. Oz is a quack. I do hope it's a case of any press is good press.

I mean metformin, sorry I didn't think about the other kinds. I take a 1000mgs twice a day. Alright! so I can take it on an empty stomach. cool! Thanks for the answer!

Looking at Phlaunt.com. What a great site!!! thanks

No updatez yet, have another six weeks to go.

You've done so well! Persistence is worth gold.

For me, I notice if I am not paying attention to getting enough salt, I can get sugar cravings.

I noticed I was more anxious in the first couple of months, it seems to have passed.
