I have a SLAP And Bicep Tendon tear in my left shoulder. Surgery is needed for repair. The SLAP repair is pretty straight forward. The bicep tendon repair involves cleaning up the bicep connection...

So, my reason for asking this help is dual fold.
1. I will be finishing up grad school and heading back to a regular army assignment again - gone are the days of gym 5 days a week with minimal...

The only thing I see here that I question is: Why so low on kcals? and your fat to protein ratio seems off. I started a keto study at 197 with my presecribed calories between 2800-3100 to...

If you're trying to become fat adapted following a keto diet. 40g of net carbs is way too high. Under 20g net and avoid overdoing it on protein. This forum is drenched with people who post their...

Today's Report is titled TOO MUCH PROTEIN! - So I ate a bunch of protein in one sitting after being out and about all day. I was hungry and wings were delicious. The excess protein definitely had a...

Do that since you're stubborn about the protein... see how the results come... then decide. If you arent getting into ketosis and seeing results after about 6 weeks, you'll know why.

Good Morning, Here is my update for today.

That's not a keto diet, sorry. That excess protein is just being converted to glucose. More fat, less protein or just dont bother because you're beating your body up.

Not to rain on your parade, but most of that 8lbs is water weight... that being said, that's good because it means your restricting your carbs. The 70/25/5 will be fine to maintain your muscle. ...

I mean, you can do what you want... but why come here for advice?

Early on the diet - you're just doing what you want and later will make excuses why you're not fat adapted. Quit focusing so...

Wayyy too much protein to fat. Like Jon said, starting tracking your food. You look like a big guy and should be putting in over 200g of fat and limiting your protein down around 100g until you get...

The sugars in peanut butter and sour cream are fine (as long as they arent added sugars) - just keep those carbs under 20-25 net. I personally would recommend eating more calories for sure - mostly...

So I missed yesterday's post. I was at a 1.5 ketones and 86 glucose. I know you are all were so upset and on edge awaiting my post only to be let down.

But on a positive note - here is...

I would recommend you increase your calories as you transition to ketosis. The key is to get yourself to ketosis and then fat adapted, then to play with the diet. I would add in some fatty...

Good Morning. Here are my numbers over the last 24 hours.

I'll start with the Keto Flu - I started the diet on the 16th of this month and felt great ... thought maybe I'd be one of the lucky few to escape the flu - alas, the 24th and 25th roll around and...

I guess it depends on what those meals are? 2300 cals may be a bit low. At 250lbs - there's a good chance thats close to his baseline and then any movement uses more calories. As he adapts to a...

Why so high on the protein? Excess protein will be broken down to glucose and defeat the whole purpose of ketosis.

As for the Keto flu mitigation - it hit me last week a few times and it...

Blood. I'd appreciate it if you checked out my log and gave me any insights. I'm new to keto and I know you have much more experience and knowledge on the diet.

Thanks

Good Afternoon. Been a very busy morning and am now just getting around to updating my daily log.

Here are my numbers from my blood tests and diet. As you will see, I actually slept in this...
