I used Truvia, will try Stevia (but I'm still not sure about the taste). I'm not sure what you mean by wet, agave? That will increase the carb and calorie count. I'm sure you can try it. The recipe will yield about 8-9 squares (rather small) so I'd add 1/8 cup of agave or honey if wet. I didn't use the entire 1/4 cup…

No gossip? You didn't hear that so and so went over their calories last week. And what's his face didn't log in at all for over 3 days! :D

Actively not working for the last 3 hrs. 2 hrs to go. What not to do next?

Oops, this is a recipe for Flat Flax Seed Bread.

Definitely not low carb. Everything except chicken, egg and spices has a lot of carbs. :(

Found these recipes, haven't tried them yet. If you do, let me know. I plan on using the agar I recently bought for both, 99% lindt chocolate, and I must figure out a substitute for the strawberries. Sugar substitute all over, of course. Strawberry Panna Cotta Pannacotta: - 1 C (250ml) whipping cream - 1 C (250ml) milk -…

I'm definitely making that burger with whatever meat I have in the freezer! With all the weird stuff I eat (deemed so by the regular people) I haven't tried kale. I'd skip the soy sauce. I cut carbs where I can, I'm doing 10 or less. I'll take a look at what I can sub it with. Which reminds me, I have some liquid smoke. I…

Also, look up ALA, alpha lipoic acid. Bodybuilders also has some good info on that. I can't' swear by it because my carb intake is minimal, but for those who do cycles keto, they take ALA when they eat more carbs.

I've been on keto for 2 weeks, weight loss, no muscle loss. Two of my fiends have been on it for 6 months to a year. Take a look and see if this is something that can work for you, because it's worked for so many. http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=132598293

I think my diary is open for your viewing pleasure. I don't eat fruit. I eat veggies sparingly, those with lowest carbs. I have a recipe for flax bread, which has zero carbs, and cookies that have .77 carb per cookie. Recently discovered Miracle Noodles and they are a life saver. I made a pizza crust with them yesterday.…

Low Carb Pizza Crust 2 packages of Miracle Noodles 1 egg 1 1/2 cup of cheese, shredded (I used Jarlsberg, I'm sure any will do. Watch out for the extra sugar in Mozzarella) Preferred spices optional (pepper, oregano, garlic, etc.) Heat oven to 450F. Wash noodles according to directions. Place in a non-stick pan to dry up a…

Combine…

Glucomannan and Shirataki noodles!

If you have a protein shake, add a tbsp or two of oil. Coconut oil has 10 more calories per tbsp and smells divine. Adding nuts is a great calorie booster, they pack a ton. Add avocado to salads or just as a side (lots of cals there). Heavy cream has 50 cal per tbsp. Put it in coffee or you can make a sauce with it. I'm…

Vit D with heaviest meal. I heard that you should take them at bedtime so they don't flush out, but I take mine in the morning with breakfast. ALA with every meal, or with the meals that are higher in carbs.
-
I'm okay with the taste, but I prefer to make carb free/low carb snacks myself. I like to know what I'm eating.
-
I agree with those who say ditch the carbs! You don't need them. Try Miracle Noodles. I made pizza with them yesterday, will make lasagna soon. I wish I could share recipes. I made Almond flour cookies (.77 net carbs) , and flat flax seed bread (0net carbs there). There are tons of low carb recipes out there, so you can…

I consume 112g of fat or less 103g of protein and 10g of carbs or less per day ( 65/30/5 ratio respectively). Today marks week 2 of Keto. I've lost 10 lbs (7 in the first week). I definitely have more energy, sometimes too much. I don't feel tired after a meal, even when full. I've been told that my skin is softer. But the…

If you consume a lot of carbohydrates on those days, you can try taking ALA (alpha lipoic acid). It shuttles unused energy to your muscles instead of into fat cells. Maybe look into glucomannan. You can cut your calories in half by adding Miracle Noodles to any meal. Before I started Keto, I would always have a ton of…

Have you looked into Keto? You can cut BF and keep/gain muscle mass. Do some reading about alpha lipoic acid, it helps your body guide extra glycogen into your muscles instead of turning it into fat (among other benefits). As far as exercise, dips, push-ups (tons of variations), rows, etc. I won't link to another forum,…

Definitely take his BF. Loads of people think they're in great shape, but they're soft all over.
