I think I'll skip the burpees until you puke part, but I can totally get behind getting up at the *kitten* crack of dawn. I feel better on early days, guaranteed.

I use the granulated, but I imagine either would work. I used an imitation strawberry extract this week and they were awesome. I need to pick up some silicone molds so I can stop fighting my plastic ice cube trays. Lol.

They're a bit thicker being frozen I imagine, but I've never had a meringue. I put one in my coffee this morning and it melted into a delightful little topping of creamy foam.

I found swerve at a local grocery store, but I believe you can even find it at some Walmart stores, and certainly online. I'm usually really sensitive to artificial sweeteners, and most have a horrible aftertaste to me, but erythritol doesn't bother me in the slightest. It has almost no impact on insulin response, and…

Thank you! :) I have done a lot of reading and planning and so far I like what keto has done for me. It's easy to make the right food choices, and I know myself well enough to be able to tell when I might need to supplement something.

I feel like McDs actually stepped up their game with this one! We'll see how long they keep it.

I had one day where I felt a little off. Fuzzy, irritable, lethargic. I had some broth and it cleared up, and I've been careful with my electrolytes since. I take a multivitamin in the morning, magnesium at night, and drink a bottle of water with 1/4 t salt, 1/4 t salt substitute (potassium), and a tablespoon of lime…

I'm 28, and have a 66 lb weight loss goal. I dropped 10 lbs in water weight the first week.

Wonderful! I've been in keto for a little over a week and my energy levels are through the roof. I feel better than I have in years.

Thanks for posting this! There are a lot of misconceptions about ketogenic diets, and this is a good start to help dispel some of them.

I kicked the carbs recently and am loving keto. Let me know if I can help!

Thanks! I'm happy to be here. :)

5% Carbs, 35% Protein, 60% Fat Keto macros

The other thing with ketostix is that they only test for one specific ketone, while you're body will create and use three different ones. Ketostix can show up negative under a lot of circumstances. Don't fret too much, and keep your carbs under 5%. Make sure that you're counting net carbs (total - fiber), as fiber will…

They really are a great keto snack, aren't they?! I'd really like to check out some of the popcorn flavoring powders and see if any are low/no carb. But, lime and chili powder on chicharrones is really good too!

Thanks! My chicharrones crusted tilapia was absolutely delicious! Finding ways to adapt recipes to be more ketogenic is half the fun, I think.
