when I've had pasta it's like all I can taste is the white flour. It's gross. Yes...I too can now just about ketofy anything....

I have been keto for a little more than 18 months. My 1st 10 months on keto I did follow what ketogains suggested. I started losing hair, losing energy, losing muscle mass, not able to workout like I wanted, and I was HANGRY. I was also in a 4 month weight loss stall. I now follow a plan where I eat at maintenance calories…

Keep your protein sources fatty.... so I don't eat a lot of chicken or turkey because it's so high in protein and low in fats.

I have been keto for 18 months and I've tried multiple ways to keto. The brand of keto I follow today that works best for me is no fasting and no OMAD. I eat 1800 calories a day, 20 or less total carbs, 70 protein and 160 grams of fat. I eat it all too. I don't do fat as a lever. What I've found when I restrict calories I…

I've been keto now for over 18 months. I haven't done keto perfectly and will on occasion indulge however I will say when I do have carbage I almost always regret it. I don't feel good, the foods don't taste as good as I remember them.

I agree. I'm a stage 3 breast cancer survivor and I can't imagine not doing chemo, surgery, radiation. I too love all things holistic and non-MD/Rx related so I don't just run to the doctor to get on a Rx when I have a runny nose. However I do feel it's irresponsible to promote nutrition only to "cure" cancer. I didn't…

HUGS. This sounds so familiar to me. I used to have this terribly after I would drink. I used to drink 5-6 days a week. Since I've been sober my mental health has VASTLY improved. I'm not perfect but so much better than where I was. If you ever want to talk I'm here for you.

Keep going .... one day at a time. If you're not in a recovery program please seek out some meetings in your area, get a sponsor, work the steps and help others. Your life will do a 180!!! Much love friend... Tiffany sober since 08/13/12

Don't give up. The first loss while it's significant is usually water weight loss. You're body is going through a HUGE change and it's also healing. Keep at it and soon you'll see a loss. In the mean time while you're waiting on the scale to show you the magic #'s my best advise is take pictures weekly and measurements.…

Yes I do premium... I love it. I've used premium for about 2 years now

20 is what is suggested. You can do 20 total or net. So if you eat 40 total carbs then 20 of those should be from fiber so you can be at 20 net. My biggest advise to someone new who's having these kinds of symptoms is make sure you're getting your electrolytes in and increase your fat intake. You'll feel better very soon.

Congrats on getting off medication. I haven’t had a gallbladder for almost 10 years and I’ve not had any issues with keto. I’ve been keto for 18 months

Some days it's one minute and one hour at a time. If you truly need help with stopping drinking please let me know and I'll be happy to help you find help in your area. I've been sober since 08/13/12, I was 39 years old when I had what I pray is my last drink. I can tell you you'll have more fun in life with out drinking…

I've been sober since 08/13/12 and pray I will be forever/one day at a time. What was at one time a great love affair between alcohol and myself ended in severe depression wanting to die. Knowing I needed to quit drinking but couldn't stop drinking. I had no idea how I was going to stop and find other ways to cope. I had…

I'd like to join if I could. I just saw this thread. I've been keto for a little more than 18 months. I love this way of life! I'm down almost 60 pounds and have about 25-30 to go before I hit my goal. My ultimate goal weight is to be strong and healthy. I love this way of life and I never see myself going back to a SAD…

Eat an avocado and get a magnesium supplement. Also eat more fat. The more fat you eat and the more you're on top of your electrolytes in the beginning the easier it will be to pass the keto flu and become fat adapted/in ketosis. In the beginning don't be a slave to the macros. The beginning needs to be focused on getting…

We plan weekly so this is what's for dinner in my house next week: Tomorrow - eating out due to seeing Hamilton tomorrow night (SUPER excited!!) Sunday - Keto Mongolian Beef https://www.ketovale.com/recipe/mongolian-beef/ Monday - Taco Salad Tuesday - Grilled Cheeseburgers Wednesday - Mississippi Pot Roast…

For the best taste blend it. Other wise the oil will just sit at the top. When you blend it the coffee will be frothy and creamy. So yummy!!!

Fosterc681 I completely relate to all you shared on your hesitation with keto. That was me too 18 months ago. Keep in mind that FDA/Medical profession and insurance companies make A LOT of money by keeping us sick. How do they keep us sick??? With food and crap food. Re-watch those films and really just let it all sink in…

Awe thank you. Keep going!! ❤️💪🏻🥩🥑🥓🍳

I’m sorry you’re enduring indegistion. No fun. I found this on ruledme and hopefully this can help you https://www.ruled.me/faq/indigestion/ Also with the headaches.... SALT! Drink pickle juice, chicken broth or just put it on your tongue and swallow it down with water. One you do that you’ll feel better. You’re…

I have been keto for 18 months and this way to figure my macros is what's best for me. I've never felt better than when I do when I follow this way to eat my macros http://commonsenseketogenics.com/what-is-tdee-how-to-figure-it-out-and-what-is-the-point/

For the first month I did keto I only walked. I started working out once I'd been keto for 2 months. If you're new and working out and you don't want to take a break from the gym my best suggestion is to increase your fats. It will help build muscle and increase your energy.

I've been keto for 18 months and fasting and me are not friends. I've tried it and I just can't fast. Mama needs to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. If you need to eat then eat. The brand of keto I follow doesn't suggest any types of fasting unless it's for medical purposes.

Just keep doing what your doing. It goes away. You're body is becoming fat adapted. I used to eat DoTerra (I'm NOT a rep) peppermint beadlets or just put a drop of pure peppermint essential oil (I use plant therapy blend, can buy on amazon) on my tongue to help with the taste and bad breathe.

What I wish I would have known when I started: 1. Be consistent with measurements and pictures so when the scale shows no magic numbers I don't get discouraged. 2. Electrolytes are always key no matter if you're a newbie to keto or a veteran 3. Find your brand of keto and stick to it. There's so many keto variations out…

Here's a great blog on how to adjust MFP for Keto: https://www.ruled.me/carb-tracking-for-keto-diet/

I'm always under 20 total carbs (I don't follow net carbs). On average I am 10-15 total a day

Hi all...My name is Tiffany! I've been Keto since January 2017. Keto is the last thing I tried and the only thing that has worked. I've struggled with obesity my entire adult life (I'm 45 years old). When I was 42 years old I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. Cancer doesn't run in my family. When I went into…
