Welcome!! I've been doing the keto lifestyle for a year and four months now. It helped me change my relationship with food and has been the catalyst for, truly, the healthiest I've ever been in my life. If you have any questions whatsoever do not hesitate!

Do you do any kind of weight training?

My bullet coffee is my favorite thing in the world. I have it every single morning and it satiates me for hours. I make a regular coffee with a pod - lately I've been doing the Veranda blend from Starbucks. Then I used my Nutribullet to blend everything together - 2 tablespoons of coconut oil, 2 tablespoons of grass-fed,…

I intermittent fast a lot, which starts at 2000 the night prior and runs till at least noon, so I typically skip breakfast. I always have my bullet coffee though which satiates me for half the day.

I'm an awful friend on here. I rely more on the forums.

Is there a difference between that and PMS?

What is PMT?

My favorite is sugar free jello with some cool whip on top. It's delicious, low-cal and low-carb.

Mine has been absurdly all over the place since doing keto. I've had where I've gotten 2 in one month, where I've been abnormally late, etc. I just don't care anymore because I've experienced such amazing overall benefits of keto. But yeah, TOM has been beyond whacked.

He did mention one thing I don't agree with however, how you don't need to count calories if you're on the keto diet. I think anyone trying to lose weight needs to be mindful of how many calories they're taking in.

Hadn't heard of him before this thread. Went to see a video and spiraled into a Ken Berry videofest for nearly 2 hours.

I think it all boils down to habits. As long as your habit is healthy, then there's no reason you shouldn't be allowed to indulge in life's pleasures. If your habits are unhealthy then one day of eating well isn't going to get you into shape. Conversely, if you're consistency healthy, then one day of indulging shouldn't…

I've been on keto for 6 months with a handful of cheat days. I go back on keto pretty seamlessly and the days I've indulged weren't much of a setback.

Oh definitely. I find that I'm incredibly sensitive to alcohol-consumption now. I used to do a bottle of wine easily. Now I have barely a glass and feel tipsy. Which I guess is a real good thing, but I can't hang with anyone lol

I don't think one ounce is gonna kill me. Been keto for 6 months. I'm good.

Well now I know who my go-to is on these topics! Thank you.

I don't much like it either. But with my parents inviting their weird friends over for the holidays, this keto girl is gonna need something.

*MY brandy has zero carbs

Can't believe I've never seen this wonderful thread before, what a great idea. JFT 12/1/2018 1. Try to eat dinner later so that I don't snack after 1930 2. Start walking again, whatever I've gotta do to make that happen 3. Can I put things unrelated to fitness? Because I also want to be more present. I want to not be on…

Yeah, I've been on keto for 6 months now and have lost 24lbs. I'm definitely the healthiest I've ever been and have gotten into a pretty good routine. But this MCT stuff pops up everywhere I look so I thought I'd give it a go and see how it made me feel. Definite no-go.

Fat Snax cookies!!!!! And dark chocolate

I'm lame. I'm such a creature of habit and can eat the exact same foods every single day for months and months on end. Much like the above poster, I have compiled a list of all keto-friendly foods that I really enjoy and I just mix them up each day. What helps me is preparing as much as possible the night prior. I always…

Mega late on this but would love to get in. I only started to run again these past few days. So I have a very low goal right now and will re-evaluate next month.

It's a psychological wage and it helps with motivation. Positive reinforcement.

I try not to make exceptions because then it's so easy for those exceptions to become the rule. For instance, if I've laid out a workout plan for the week and I tell myself, "I'll skip just this day and resume tomorrow," then it becomes easier to skip tomorrow as well because I've already made an exception. Before I know…

I'm obsessed with blending coconut oil into my coffee. I'm not even a coconut fan but find the taste to be amazing. Plus, the froth it creates makes me feel like I'm drinking a latte.

Keto has been my saving grace. Today is day 50 and I've lost 18lbs, but more importantly I feel better than I've ever felt in my life. I have energy, clarity, the whole nine. It's been amazing.

Chocolate chip cookies... REAL chocolate chip cookies. And cupcakes. Cheesecake. Pie. Okay, all things sweet lol

West Seattle here!

I started keto 11 days ago and am loving it so far. Definitely looking for keto friends so feel free to add me!
