I just started the Keto Lifestyle this week, and this is day 3 for me. I'm trying to stay below 25 carbs per day. The confusing part is deciding to stay under 25 carbs/day or 25 net/carbs per day. Right now, I'm trying to be disciplined and stay below 25 carbs/day.

Thank you. I had the same question.

Nice cite. It was helpful. I talked it over with my doc and she said the same thing. All is normal for this medication.

Good information. I was concerned with the small jump in weight, when I am supposed to be losing weight. Thanks.

I've used this website for the past 6 months. It is very helpful. It works for me when I take the time to log my food. When I fail to log my food, I can see the negative results. The mobile application is very helpful as well. Good luck with your progress.

Good program that takes a high level of dedication.

I could not figure that one out either. I keep all my exercises ( to include weight circuit training) tracked under the cardiovascular area. I wear a heart monitor that gives me a pretty good idea of how many calories I'm burning and log that information over the default values. My numbers are more conservative (lower).…

I see that you have many responses. I'll add one. I like ginger snaps - try Shasha Co. - Spelt Ginger Snaps. I purchased them at whole foods. This is a pretty good snack. 15 cookies equals one serving.

Mollie - I agree with you. I think that this new lifestyle (which includes eating) is a journey and sometimes on a journey we fall down. The important thing is not to stay down. Get right back up and try again. I am checking in for the last time this month. I am happy to report that I have exceeded my goal by 4 lbs. My…

It's great to read about all your successes and struggles. Weighed in today and was happy to see the scale going in the right direction. I had a giant chocolate bar yesterday (yes, I ate it all). Nonetheless, I lost 1.3 pounds this week and I am 0.7 lbs away from monthly goal of 10 lbs. Giving up the chips has really…

Dropped one more pound this week. I am down 8 on my way to October's goal of 10 lbs lost for the month. I have finished my second week using this program I have leveled off a bit and I am enjoying controlling my food intake. I've been pretty successful exercising every week day and some weekend days.

I hope you are successful. I've found this website very helpful, especially the Droid application.

Same experience as everyone else. I thought that it might be water weight. I'm not sure.

I did my interval training this morning on the treadmill. Run 5 minutes - walk 2 minutes and repeat for approximately 30 minutes. I am trying to build up my endurance in running. It is a great way to burn calories.

Just had my first bad day (where I go over my caloric allowance) yesterday. Back in the swing this morning and had a great workout. First week was good. I kept the commitment in not eating tortilla chips (which means no salsa). :laugh: :laugh:

I hate it when that happens. However, I've found that it is usually water weight that I put on. Love those cheat days & hate the morning scale after...

I hadn't looked at from that view. That sounds pretty exciting and attainable. Thanks!

I'm new to the program and would like to join in on your challenge. If you approve, then my goal is 10 lbs for October. I will cut out the tortilla chips (excess carbs) from my diet choices. Also, I will be adding in weight resistance this month. ~Alex
