My wife and I started back 1/4. I've dropped about 4-5 lbs. as of this morning. My wife has only dropped 1. We had success a couple of years ago when we committed to 30 days to "jump start" our weight loss. We're going to try to replicate that.

If someone is starting out on keto, they should be weighing and recording their food intact so they can track their macros. Typical Keto macros should be 70% fat, 25% protein and 5% carbs. The fat and proteins are goals if you will and the carbs are an absolute limit. I ran around 65% fat, 30% protein and 5% carbs.
By eating a high percentage of natural fats you are training your body to burn fat as a fuel instead of carbs.

This is what I take to ensure my electrolytes stay where they should be. It was recommended to me by Shane here on TBH. I prefer the lemonade but there are several other flavors.

from what I have been finding out lately, it seems like a fasting/IF/Keto combo could really be beneficial, weight loss and health wise.

Does this vary if your ultimate goal is not actual weight loss but rather burning stubborn fat in areas while gaining muscle mass or at least not loosing any through workouts?

I also regularly do IF.

IF helped as well. Just brush up on what to eat to come out of your IF the days you do it. I was doing it wrong for quite sometime.Last edited by rtp; 01-11-2021, 01:50 PM.

This is through lunch and afternoon snack
The snack messed me up, I researched last week and thought it was fine but this app didn’t like it. dried cranberries, cheddar cheese & cashews.

I need to start back on it. I lost 50lbs back in 2018 and then relaxed a little. I was not as strict with watching the carb intake but I didn’t overdo it. It was a lifstyle kind of diet (no bread, pasta, etc). I did that until around September then started to eat more carbs and exercise less. BOOM! Put on 15lbs in no time.

There are some awesome brussel sprout recipes that are heavy on the bacon, cheese and cream that are out of this world as well. I like to make that for dinner as my side pretty often.
Most fruit is a no no as well. You can eat small amounts of berries, that's about it.
