  • Welcome Tammy and keto on!!
  • The keto diet is more about insulin control than calories. (See The Obesity Code by Dr. Jason Fung) I have been eating within 100 calories of my TDEE and lose 1 -2 lbs a week. It seems the body fat disappears at a quicker rate than the numbers on the scale.
  • I've been keto since august and have lost 46 lbs. The more simple you keep your eating, the easier it is. BUT, the others are right....this is a way of eating that you must commit to...it is not a quick fix. It has helped me get my blood sugar and blood pressure under control so I am committed to it. I hope you will be as…
  • Been keto 4 months and have found if I eat too much protein, it will affect my BG reading that next morning.
  • Read the book before you judge. :)
  • Yep...the body burns alcohol before burning bodyfat so it will slow you down. For more info go to www.dietdoctor.com

  • Read "The Obesity Code" by Dr. Jason Fung on how weight gain and loss is driven by the hormone insulin, NOT thermogenically by calories. The keto way of eating is about keeping insulin under control so it is the total carbs consumed along with just moderate protein and 65%-80% total daily calories from fat that drives the…
  • Keto is working for me. Yes, it is restrictive of sugary carbs and grains, BUT that is what I needed to get off diabetes meds. The diet has been around since 1920s as a way to treat epilepsy and diabetes. Now, researachers are determining its value for extreme endurance athletes for ultra marathons and the like because you…
  • Read the Obesity Code by Dr. Jason Fung for the truth about keto....it is NOT thermogenic as in CICO, it is hormonal as in controlling insulin in the body.
  • A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet! :)
  • Me.....been keto since August 3rd and have lost 42 lbs! Add me if you'd like! :)

  • From what I have read, calorie restriction is not recommended on the keto diet. I have always eaten within 400 cal of my TDEE and rarely exercise. I've lost 42 lbs since August 3rd. But, the closer you are to your goal weight, the more weight loss begins to slow. I have averaged 1-2 lbs weekly, but I've known some to…
  • The keto info in this book is flawed.
  • Howdy! I've been keto since August 3rd and have lost 42 lbs thus far. Here are a couple of websites to get you started: www.ketovangelist.com AND www.ruled.me Also. The Obesity Code by Dr. Jason Fung is a great book to learn about controlling your weight by controlling insulin in your body. To get the grams right on MFP…

  • @blondebaby88 There are some great Facebook groups as well for info: Ketogenics for Success; Ketovangelist Kitchen; etc.
  • Skinnygirl has wines....I would suggest a white wine with club soda and a lime twist. If you have one, that is not much alcohol & carbs to overcome.

  • Hi Jennifer & welcome to the keto WOE! I've been on the program for 7 weeks and lost 26 lbs. I have gotten off one of my BP meds as well as stopping Metformin for T2 diabetes. After you get over the "keto flu", you'll find it gets easier to resist the old eating habits. The high fat regimen keeps you from getting hungry…
  • It's easier to track by grams.....I shoot for 20 grams or less carbs, moderate protein and high fat. I try to stay under 2500 calories a day so that leaves my protein at about 100 grams and fats at 200 grams. For women, it is recommended to eat between 50 -70 grams of protein so your fate would come in around 100 -140…
