Back on the Keto

[AJL67]

Well back on the keto, lost over 130lbs the first time but put about 30 back on, i can’t be trusted with carbs. Luckily the local grocery had rib roast for $5.99 a pound, vacuum sealer for the win. 8 humongous ribeyes and 4 large beef bones was a good haul.

Try Pescatarian, I think it is a much easier diet to maintain and far healthier.

I did keto for two yrs and really know the rhythm, I’m comfortable with keto and my good numbers went up and bad down. I’ll still read upon it you never know, this isn’t a pie diet is it, because that would be cool.

No, somewhat similar to Mediterranean.

Only problem with Keto for me is, being a diabetic, it will kill my kidneys.

I briefly tried the Keto diet but had a hard time getting the hang of it and abandoned ship. However, I did eat a strict carnivore diet for two months. I lost 20lbs and found it to be a very enjoyable diet. I ultimately decided to reintroduce carbs because I have some fitness related goals (I want to deadlift 500lbs) and I feel carbs will be necessary to make it happen.

@AJL67 I wish you all the success as you get back on the wagon!

Nice score on the rib roasts.

I have friends that are constantly on and off the keto diet. They do lose weight while they are on it, but they seem to never be able to stick to it for an extended period. I can absolutely get behind the idea of eating lots of meat, cheese, eggs, fish, etc., and I do that anyway, but I enjoy my carbs, especially the beer variety, too much to do keto. When I really feel the need to drop pounds I simply greatly restrict my calorie intake to the point where weight loss is inevitable. I have dropped 30 pounds this way in a few months.

It’s actually recommended for pre-diabetic and diabetic people because of the low ti almost no sugars.

No sugar is good. But too much protein stresses the kidneys. On of the problem with diabetic is kidney failure. I'm sure it might work for people who has stronger kidney functions.

I’ve got to get back on the wagon myself. My wife and I love the keto diet. Thanks for posting!

I did keto, well specific carbohydrate diet for close to two years to help with my ulcerative colitis. It was tough to stick to because I love carbs but it helped a lot. I lost a lot of weight on it and sometimes it freaked me out because I was consuming so much food but still losing weight. Now I just adhere to it on the weekdays and eat carbs on the weekends. I missed pizza so much haha

First off, that's a great price for roast for rib roast. I'd be sorely tempted to have made a prime rib roast with those.

I tried the no carb diet in the past (Atkins it was called back then), and it was not for me. I was miserable, actually gained weight, and the constipation was horrible.

But growing up a farm boy, I really like veggies. Learn to like raw broccoli, blueberries, carrots, and simliar fare, then your body will thank you.

I’ve done keto a number of times over the years. Key things to make sure to do is take good vitamins and drink plenty of water to flush your kidneys.
