This is a very cut-down, very simple, stylish sheet that seems to work on firefox First, install Stylish. Second, click on the new icon. Third, click on the three dots, Fourth, select "Create new style" Fifth, copy and paste the code below into the style box. @-moz-document…

This was the last thing we had working. I tried it just now, in Firefox, and it wasn't working. Might want to try it yourself and play around. The js doesn't work anymore. https://github.com/LowCarberDaily/stylish-calorie-hider

I will sometimes have some bourbon or scotch, straight up or on the rocks. Maybe with a little seltzer water, if I am feeling like a bubbly booze. I don't drink much outside of that. I sometimes do dry wines, but very rarely. I also don't enjoy most other booze straight and most mixers that I would use are sweet (I avoid…

I know women who stayed carnivore (zerocarb) while pregnant. I am pretty sure low carb won't be a bad idea. Besides, if you had gestational diabetes, they would want you on a low-carb diet. So, there's no reason to switch up what has been working. Also, congrats!

Oh my, that ending. I really wish he had averaged 150g of protein and not 100g. I feel like the results would have been "slightly" different. I still think the end result would have been about the same, but there is one result from his experiment that I didn't like. He glossed over it, but it was about absolute lean mass.…

Calories is the only way percentages are expressed. 100 grams of fat and 100 grams of protein is never expressed with percents. They would say a 69%/21% fat to protein. If grams are compared, the convention is to talk in ratios and always mention by weight. "My meat tends to be 3 to 1 lean to fat, by weight." Note that…

Meat only? Donaldson was basically a carnivore proponent. Also curious as to how many calories you ate and for how long. I have seen keto and carnivore overfeeding attempts before, and only underweight people managed to put on weight long-term. A few, who went from very restricted calories, put on weight for a short period…

Day 8 of 4,000 calories a day (double his normal amount) and he's lost weight (down 1.2 pounds). Sure, it's within water-weight variations. But, now he's below his previous lowest scale weight. He still is struggling with the eating. Appetite still a zero. He doesn't want to eat. He's doing a tone of liquid calories and…

I have read the book "Strong Medicine" by Donaldson. It's pretty interesting. He has some weird theories about injecting boiled milk and arthritis, but it's still a good read. There are a lot of obscure old books ("Calories Don't Count" by Taller, "Strong Medicine" by Donaldson, "The Fat of the Land" by Stefansson, and…

Oh new quote for the low-carb diets that don't count calories. This is from "The Big Fat Lie" Chapter 10 Also from chapter 10 of "The Big Fat Lie"

Watching that video playlist right now. Second video in and he is already talking about how macadamia nuts help him reach the calorie goal. He's not super-thrilled with this eating, already. He started out at an all-time low and with really low body fat. So, I am wondering how this will work out. I feel like he is going to…

We did have a browser extension (only worked on your computer and not the phone app) that hid calories and that information from you when you logged. So, you could see just the carbs and fiber (for net carbs). It was part of the original "Ad Libitum April" where a bunch of people decided to try a month without restricting…

I don't think you can consistently be in a calorie surplus [eating below your body's carb limit], if you have excess body fat to lose. I have tried, both from a weight stable point and when overweight, to consistently overeat. The "consistently" part is where it fails. A day or two, yeah, but day after day it becomes…

Don't worry, the anti-calorie restriction people are out there. I compiled the Doesn't Counting Calories Count? thread, a long time ago, to try and address that very point. The vast majority of old-school low-carb plans do not include calorie counting or restriction. We're out here. We don't say a whole lot. There isn't a…

There are several things here to talk about. First off, are you taking blood ketone readings multiple times a day? How do you afford that? Or are these numbers coming from a different method? Second, I really wish the dietdoc website would make it clear that this "optimal" ketone level is just a hypothesis. It is based on…

Yeah, no. It won't eat nearly enough carbs. If you ever home-brewed beer, wine, or any other alcohol, you would know how much gas gets put off and how long it takes to get even the majority of the sugars fermented. It is wishful thinking to believe that sourdough is better than any other bread.

You aren't wrong. In fact, it is one of the foundations of my diet. No plant foods. That means no veggies, no fruit, no nuts, no grains, no vegetable oils, etc. The only plants allowed are small amounts of seasonings. It does eliminate veggies, and not accidentally. I get my micronutrients, all of them, from meat. It…

OK: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1261343/effect-of-activity-level-on-my-tdee THAT is probably my nerdiest data junkie post. I used to put so much effort into this. LOL Edit: I just reread all that post and the thread. Who could have predicted that I would eventually be the one telling people to just keep…

And proof that I was a data junkie! I found a post where I showed my graph of my first year (keto and then carnivore). I wasn't openly carnivore, and that big bump right before week 40? That was my month-long artificial sweetener experiment. The peak, where it starts to drop again, is when I went carnivore. From a…

Yeah, it wouldn't be a good thing to remove a bunch of people. There is no upside. But, there is a part of me that is curious to know how many people are active here. I know the vast majority of people don't post. I remember when I first joined; I was intimidated about posting because I wasn't sure of my place. It was a…

I just looked at the slimfast powder and it has almost no protein. It has 2 grams! The other 8 grams comes from the skim milk you are supposed to add. It has 14 grams of net carbs per scoop, and that is before the milk. On amazon, it works out to about 50 cents a scoop, but it is also devoid of any nutrients you would…

Why not real foods? I very rarely used protein powder, at all. It was always more satisfying to have a real good breakfast.

I wanted to make a script to pull every member's profile and delete members who haven't been logged in for 2 years or whose accounts no longer exist. But, it would be a pain in the butt and counter-productive. Unless every group has very old and inactive members removed, reducing our numbers would drop us lower on the…

I distinctly remember hitting 10k members and thinking it was a huge deal. Lol

I don't think 200 grams is a ceiling for anyone (man, woman, or child). But, it is going to be practically impossible for you to get over 200 grams a day, eating whole foods, within your calorie goals (or even when eating just to hunger). It is safe to say that up to 200 grams won't kick you out, because that is where most…

Just saw this today on twitter: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0031938412002806 This has some problems, when used as proof that higher protein is better on a keto diet. Everyone was obese (not just overweight). The calories were originally set very low (33% of maintenance). The high protein was 1.1g…

How new? There is a point, a few days to a couple weeks in, where you just don't feel like you want any of the foods you are allowed. It does pass. I tell people not to stress about short-term things like this. If it continues for more than two weeks, that would be concerning. It almost never does.

I lost 50ish pounds doing keto (well 30ish with keto and then 20+ more with zerocarb). I went down to no carbs, and I stayed at that level even when I was at a good weight. I never changed it, and my weight stabilized around a healthy point. I fell off the wagon, and weight went back on, but when I remove the carbs my…
