Hi, I've been in the background for a month or so, and finally decided to jump in with both feet (Bad knees and all!) Still learning how this works, but so far, I'm happy to find a lifestyle I can wrap my brain around. Greatest revelation since starting Keto? "You don't lose to get healthy. You get healthy to lose." - Dr.…

I just redid my goals, and here's what it's showing me: Calories-1515 • protein - 6oz or 180g • fat - 2.9oz or 82g • carbs – 0.5oz or 15g Better? Am I supposed to be aiming for 1515, or does it matter if I'm 100 calories off?

Where am I getting this info from? From facebook people mostly. I stopped listening to them, and have been trying to fend for myself ever since. I just checked your diary, and almost cried at the thought of being able to eat a friggin' tomato! lol When you get a chance, would you check my diary? It'll show you how off base…

I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that I don't need the BPC and MCT oil at all? The MCT and Coconut oil in my coffee has helped to both energize and clear my head in the morning. I have no appetite till 4pm (if then). And the Keto diet said the fat bombs were to make sure I got my macros in, but I don't need it…

Sure thing! I appreciate all the help I can get.:) As a matter of fact, the menu had me eating eggs for lunch and dinner, but in light of tcunbeliever's post, I decided instead to eat a cup of broccoli and two pieces of tilapia (cooked in butter with garlic, salt, pepper and ginger. I'm drinking seltzer with this, and I…

As a matter of fact, I'll be fasting on Friday! My last fast I went 36 hours, and lost nine pounds, gained back three. My ketones jumped up to 4.2, which freaked me out a bit, until I did some research. My levels right now are at 2.5, and I tend to get into ketosis pretty fast - thankfully- so I'll be working to make sure…

Hi! Your photos are amazing! Are those dates correct? That even after a few months you kept the same weight?? Your body looks totally changed!! From 12/16 to 4/17 and the same weight, and then gaining a few pounds the following year, only to see that you're still losing? Absolutely amazing!

I LOVE YOUR POST!! Thank you so much:) Your explanation of the GKI healing vs weight loss makes so much sense, and after today, I just might change my name to "Walking Fat Bomb!" ROFL I do believe you're right - my body is going thru a healing, as I have knee and joint issues, a belly, scars from three C-sections and a…

Just picked up a food scale on Saturday, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. It's so weird. It appears I'm taking in maintenance calories, because I can gain up to five pounds, and lose it all within 24 hours. Does that even make sense? I keep coming back to the same weight which I now refer to as the "setpoint." Sticking…

Hi, and thanks for responding! I'm tracking, but it's frustrating trying to stay within the range. I actually think I'm eating too little, because I get stuffed so quickly on IF. Today, I decided to try the egg fast so I had 8 eggs with mayo and mustard (egg salad), a zip fizz and two slices of cheese. I had a BPC around…
