Question about Ketostix
Hi everybody! So, I just got some Ketostix and I'm super excited to confirm that I am, indeed, producing ketones. I'm hoping someone can tell me though, is it better to be at the max concentration of ketones, or is it better for it to be lower? I've heard two rationales on this, one saying that more is always better, but…

Is calorie creep sabotaging my progress?
Hi everyone! I'm writing this because I've had less than desirable results lately after having a period of stellar weight loss, and I have to wonder if perhaps I'm consuming a few too many sneaky calories? To be clear, I keep my carbs and protein well in control, carbs are usually 4-7% of my caloric intake and protein is…

Does anyone ever....
.....get irritated by how little most people understand about nutrition?! Because I really DO! Every now and then I'll read the posts on the general boards (the ones that are advertised on the main page) and I just think wow, you people really have no clue. It makes me sad to think how much people believe they know about…

Does anyone know how to fix this??
I updated my caloric intake goals today in MFP because I've been losing weight and I want to make sure I'm hitting the right levels.

That's the great thing about it, is that it really is customizable for each person and their way of living. Anyhow, I'm curious....how does everyone here find that…

Weight gain...please help!
So, I woke up this morning and did my weekly weigh in....and I gained 3 pounds. I have NO idea why, so I'm hoping someone else can give me some insight? I've been consistently under on calories, keeping my carbs well under 30, and I've been hitting my macros aside from being a little low on proteins on a couple of days. My…

For the sugar fiends...
I'm just gonna put this out there and if you like it, great, but if you don't that's cool too. I hate those people who are "preachy" about what people eat so I hope I don't come off that way! But here's something I've been noticing... It seems like a lot of people use sugar replacements. Before I go on, let me preface this…

New to Keto/ Looking for MFP friends
Hi everyone! I'm doing the keto diet and I'm really interested in meeting new people who are also. I started out doing Paleo but it kind of "evolved" into this. My husband was a huge help in that, he's been maniacally researching diet options because we both have quite a bit of weight to lose, and he came across Keto; we…
