Yes It will pass in a few days. Your stomach is changing the way it processes food and needs to make the new bacteria to help break down your new diet... Remember to stay hydrated and remember to get some fibre into you via veges..

Happy Ketoversary

Sorry that you feel bombarded with info, I found it similar when I started... In the end the only thing that matters is that you keep your carbs under 5% of your daily limit... Without going way too overboard on protein... Anything else is just adjustments and recommendations... Hi, I believe the general concencus is that…

Im surprised no one has responded.... I guess that is why an expression of interest is a good idea :)

Another thing to think about is whether you are "tummy hungry" or "brain hungry"... I know it sounds crazy, but some hunger comes from your stomach and the rest comes from your brain.... If like me, you have eaten for comfort, or habit... you might find that sometimes your brain triggers a "hungry" when you are not really…

When you see the words "Lite or Light" and you immediately think it must have too many carbs or not enough fat.

Thanks for all the feedback guys.

Not sure how this turned in to a PCOS discussion, but this is good, keep it coming. My wife has PCOS and has just started Keto.

I got home late and had to leave early.... I have a sausage and broccoli for lunch... :(

Oh perfect.... Thats pretty much where I am :)

Im not going to eat much flax seed, just enough to boost up my fibre if I need it..

I started at 126.8 kg (280 pounds) Aiming for 90kg (200 pounds). Thats a total loss I want of 36.8 kg (80 pounds) Have lost 3KG (6.6 pounds) 33 Kg to go (73 pounds)

Its day 7 for me now, and I have to admit. I am feeling GREAT... Keto makes a lot of sense to me.... There is a lot of learning to do, its not just watching calories, but it has been hugely beneficial for me already...

Im confused, please forgive me if I misunderstood what you wrote.... and I mean the following in a completely positive way... You are doing low carb and eating popcorn? Last I checked popcorn is 74mg carbs.... They are low calory but not low carb!! You get better bang for buck from other things.... plus they are not…

I am in australia so cannot help you... however, I found that the average "premium" sausages tend to have less than 2gr carbs... the cheap ones tend to have a lot of filler, like breadcrumbs...

"when WILL it"

Stupid liver, when it work out that it should be able to use carbs for fuel, Fat for fuel, and FUEL for fuel...

Hmmm might work lol.... Ill bring out the pork rinds anyway, 0 carbs in there.

I'm on day four and not really hungry... in fact after dinner last night (ground beef and cauliflower) I feel way too full.... I am generally struggling to reach my calorific diet, but I am still eating too much protein... so as I finetune it I might have less problems.... Going to hit the cookbooks this weekend (I bought…

Thanks. Myfitnesspal doesnt seem to split out the carbs, unless that is in the paid version...

Oh bummer, thats all I had sorry :(

oh, and I am drinking craploads of water...

apparently keto flu is mostly caused by dehydration, some keto experts recommend regularly drinking bone broth .... but some others say drinking water with some salt in it (and some lemon juice to make the flavour less bad) helps with keeping hydrated.. I am taking extra Magnesium, but am considering also getting Potassium…

Thank you for this thread... I was under the impression that I was not to exceed 20gr a day... (this is my day 2) and I already consumed 20 grams in veges today. Glad i can still have broccoli for dinner.

Thanks, I did the calculations, 1700 is apparently fine for my weight.

Great job, I am looking forward to feeling like that too...

I have seen a lot of mixed answers about artificial sweeteners.... I am avoiding them for the first week just to be sure and will then slowly re-introduce sugar free diet pepsi, because I really enjoy it from time to time. Im looking forward to the keto energy burst.... I have been feeling run down for way too long.

I just had spinach, with butter and bacon bits, very delicious seemed filling, but this is day 1 I am sure I will get some carb cravings later

Hey John, how long did it take you to get into Ketosis?

I bought a few keto cookbooks... one of them made by the 4 ingredients ladies... Some great recipies in there that look fun and yum.
