I use and am currently in ketosis. My net carbs intake is approx. 30 grams/day. In my humble experience net calories being less than calories burned is about the only thing that matters. I use very low-carb because ketosis kill the appetite pretty handily. I don't think it really matters what body shape anyone has. Good…

Two years ago I lost 61 lbs in six months with ketosis, and I've kept it off. The "menu" gets really boring, but I can't complain about the results.

The first three stanzas written above aren't exactly true. If you go so low in carbs that you enter a ketogenic state your body will convert fat to ketones and burn those rather than blood sugar (because that will be gone). It takes more energy to convert fat to ketones than to burn sugar directly, and your body produces…

It's been a very long time, but I do love their salt-bomb tortillas as well as their chicken. I'm not worried from a health perspective any more than I am at any other fast food or fast casual restaurant.

Stick with the plan and wait it out. Physics always wins.

When I meet a non-militant vegan, I'll feel better about them. Until then: How many vegans does it take to change a light bulb? A1: None. Light bulbs are "NOT VEGAN!! AHHHHHH!!!!" A2: Two. One to get on their high horse and another to chastise them for oppressing the horse. A3: 101. One-hundred to crowdsource a website…

Even though there's really no difference, it might be worth a try...

MFP is coded by an evil, rabid monkey with a hammer. In reality: They're proud of the fact that no one on their staff has a computer science or math degree, and it's painfully apparent in the performance of their products. I doubt they have anyone who can even spell "Big O notation" much less use it...

I can only wish you the best of luck and my most sincere hopes. I quit cold turkey four years ago, and even though I don't know you, I'm proud that you're giving it a go. No creeper or dumb MFP drama. If I can answer any questions, or you just need someone to vent to please drop me a line. You can do this!

Congratulations on your victory! I hope you feel marvelous!
