OMG yummy! I'm making these TODAY!

Love Mascarpone as well. Is that recipe cooked?? or eat it with the raw egg?

I started out loving pork rinds dipped in ranch dressing, but quickly got sick of them. but I love them as a breading for chicken & keep a mason jar full of them crushed with spices in my cupboard at all times. Also pork rind pancakes are yummy too. For anyone having trouble with Oopsie rolls, try adding a tiny bit of…

I just pinned a ton of your recipes!! They look amazing!

Finally a voice of reason!! I agree! I find this song supportive of females. Period! Acceptance & self love should not be a bad thing. My friends 12 yr old daughter & her friends love this song & see it for what it is. A happy uplifting song supporting other females.

I'm not a huge pasta fan, I grew up eating very basic meat (or fish) & potato meals. But I love my Spirooli!! My favorite thing to make is like a zucchini fritter type thing. just zoodle the zucchini, mix with a couple of eggs, salt & pepper, fry it all like a big pancake, I top with with some parm or whatever cheese I…

Personally, keto is the best thing I ever did for my cycle. I have PCOS and haven't had a regular cycle, ever! I could go months without out one. Since starting keto in March I now have a 28-30 day cycle and although I can't be sure, I think I could be ovulating. I have a free iphone app called period tracker that is great…

Definitely agree!! I lost the majority of my weight in the first 6 weeks, starting march 1st. Then nothing! for a good 2- 2.5 months. My measurements did change though & my energy increased so I was able to start working out more. Do not do the ice cream thing!! I thought the same thing and had 1 cheat meal. Not even a…

I feel your pain OP!! I've always had issue with leg cramps but since adopting this WOE they are excuciating! I've been able to get a handle on them by upping my salt intake, I use himalayin sea salt, I also take a product called Natural Calm, its a powdered magnesium supplement thats made with stevia & makes a drink, like…

Not at all! I drink a lot of water & to be honest I've always had issues with constipation so it keeps me regular. (sorry TMI I know.) As a side note, I make it in a ramakin which is the perfect size for a burger bun or breakfast sandwich.

I make flax muffin in a minute. I use it as a hamburger bun or toast it. super easy and high fibre low carb 1 egg, 1/4c flaxmeal, 1/2 tsp baking powder & 1 T melted coconut oil. Nuke for 1 minute. Yummy!

I have PCOS and the depression & binging comes with it. I"m 47 and started a Ketogenic diet back in March and have lost 24 lbs and for the first time EVER I've had 28 day cycles for the last 4 months. My mood is completely better & I feel like a huge fog has been lifted. Check out this video. DOn' t be freaked out by the…

OK now I'm freaking out!! I've never heard of this before! If my macros for the day are good how can my day be such a mess?? I've feeling really uneducated now. How do I figure out these ratios? is there an online calculator or something?

Luther is my absolute favorite!! Season 3 is amazing!!! And Idris Elba is not too hard on the eyes. lol I also love a French movie called Intouchables, its so good I didn't even notice the subtitles. Big fan of UK series, Misfits, Being Human (UK not US) and The Wall.

I have never had ghee. I've never seen it around here. But I do love dipping my chicken in mayo or ranch dressing.

I don't understand the science behind it but I can say that since starting Keto back in March I am feeling better than I have in years. ALso I have PCOS and (boys look away!:noway: ) I have never had more than 3 cycles a year & in the last 4 months I've had 28 days cycles for the first time in my life. I stay under 20 net…

Thank you Crooz, I actually read up on the Letin reset diet a while back when I saw the doctor on tv talking about it & thought it could work for me, but that was before doing keto so I didn't bother trying it. Perhaps I'll give that a try. How long do you eat this way? I could easily eat 70 g of protein for breakfast. I…

Thanks I'll look into getting a meat thermometer. I do tend to over cook chicken. I have a fear of samonella (no reason, other than I'm a bit of a hypochondriac lol) so I tend to cook the crap out of everything. I had to stop making treats with almond flour & coconut flour, they were always pretty high in carbs and were…

Thank you for the responses. I'm going to look at incorporating a bit of both of your ideas. dmclva someone else said chicken breast isn't a great choice for keto because its so low fat so i've stopped eating it as much and that used to be my go to protein. I'm not a fan of red meat, other than hamburger so it limited my…

You're right, I do have a weakness for my breakfast sausage. lol. I hate cooking bacon and find I'm not eating enough protein so the sausage was easy. but I know you're right. I really need to get back to very basic eating. I'm not a good cook so the frozen stuff is always better than my homemade. My chicken is always dry…

When I used a keto calculator and it said if you're not working out heavily, which I'm not that protein can go to 0.6g. Is that too low? I have my macros set at 80/15/5 but occasionally will do 75/20/5. My protein is always low. I have a hard time reaching my protein requirements. Most days I'm under 60g of protein. Is…

Sungvars do you know if its been shipped yet? if not email the company, I've emailed them a couple of times now & have always gotten a great response. They are very open to customer feed back & communication. I just sent my standard ketonix back to be upgraded to the sport one so I'll be without mine for a bit but I was…

Have you tried Bullet Proof Coffee? I make mine with 2 T of MCT & 2 T of butter, that gives me 50g of fat

Just so you know I was majorly stalled for months about 2 months in. I lost a lot initially, almost 18lbs in 2 months and then nothing. at all for the next 2 months. It was so frustrating. I did start to lose again but its been very slow.

I would definitely go with the sports model now that I know the difference, if you want a more accurate reading. The regular model just shows if you are in red/yellow/green or blue zone, not how far you are into that zone. The sport model flashes the color, depending how deep you are into the certian zone, for example 2…

write to the company. they seem very open to feedback. I wrote to them yesterday suggesting they clarify the difference between the two units and they were great and told me how i could upgrade mine to the sport one if I want to.

I have found my body gets bored fast. what I mean is that if I stay with lower calories or higher calories for too long I don't lose. Generally I stay around 1500 but I'll have days of 1700 or days off 1300. I'll often see a loss after higher days and gains after lower days. There is no rhyme or reason really. I was told…

Really? I don't have any issue. I have to take a fairly long breath but not too hard.

I got mine to go red this morning for the first time!! Yay!!! I ate about 80% fat yesterday and under 15 net carbs so that seemed to help.

Oh Dear! Frob I feel bad now lol. YOu're like me. No patience!! But in the long run it will save us money, right?? Those strips are just way too expensive! Did you order the sport one? I live in canada and there was no tax or shipping or anything! I was shocked! I was expecting a big bill after I ordered telling me the…
