  • Just a pedantic heads up, if they're claiming that something is "sugar free maple syrup" then they're making a fraudulent claim. They're probably calling it "sugar free maple flavoured syrup" or some such thing. Maple syrup is the boiled down sap from sugar maple trees. It IS mostly sugar - very good tasting sugar, but…
  • Yay for science. The protein recommendation I've seen on several of the more informed keto sites is 1g/kg of weight but not more due apparently to the conversion of proteins to glucose. However, this researched article (although I haven't followed all the links yet, it at least provides all the references it used) seems to…
  • What she just said, with a huge banner "always double-check the food values given by the database". The database is hopelessly inaccurate. Even many of the checked entries I've found to be inaccurate when compared with USDA, UK, or even the label on the product itself. It's as if people entering this information just don't…
  • Followup: You can hack "Net Carbs" into MyFitnessPal if you (or a friend) has some knowledge of how to use add-ons in your browser. Check out this post for details: http://cavemanketo.com/configuring-mfp/
  • If you don't open your diary to the public, it's hard to propose anything other than very general, possibly not very useful "advice". Not that I'll claim to be an expert, having only started keto 2.5 weeks ago, but I've lost 7kg so far and my blood pressure is going down. Much of that loss was probably water, so get back…
  • Only been at it about 2.5 weeks, doing "strict" keto, and I've lost 7 kg so far (but I'm guessing much of that was water... don't really care at the moment, might care in a couple of months) without exercise and my diary is public if you want to see the types of foods I've been having. Not looking to engage in the "social"…

  • Maybe, but it does not take into account if your knees were damaged. At all. The test seems to assume that if you damaged your knees at some point, you're going to die. Which is possibly true, since because I still can't walk far after the accident (of 14 years ago), it'll take me longer to dodge the next car that tries to…
  • It's cute, regardless of what size or age the woman happens to be. It's really a personal thing though. If YOU think it's cute, then it is. If not, then don't get one. The only people calling it "trashy" are probably pretty trashy themselves. For reference, my spouse has one, and she, like me, is neither young, nor thin.…
  • Breakfast is just another meal. If you get over the whole "must have carbs for breakfast" you can try something new. Like an portion of "everything salad", which is lots of lettuce or spinach, cheese, tuna, tomato, cucumber, and whatever other veggies are lying around when you make it. I sometimes added apple to it.…
