Hello everyone, I guess you are all wondering where I went? Or maybe not... Well I have been doing some experiments with diet and exercise to see if any significant changes have occurred. First I stopped counting calories and just ate whatever I wanted to. No change in weight. Still going to the gym but lowered cardio a little and only did cardio on specific days. Not together with weight training. I have seen no major change in weight and have taken away from this that all the cardio I was doing wasn't making any difference whatsoever!! In fact, did see more body changes with less cardio and more specific weight training. So, I was thinking "where do I go from here?" Just so happens that documentary on keto was on netflix and I watched it last night. Some very compelling info and studies! Most important things I took away from the Keto diet show was; eating non processed foods, going organic, and going grass fed and cage free. Another words, most natural as possible. I have been reading up on the diet and have decided to give it a try, considering low fat is not working for me! I am very apprehensive considering I want to watch my cholesterol numbers, but I am not on medication of any kind and I want to see if this diet actually lowers bad cholesterol numbers like the studies showed on the documentary. I can see that this will probably be a little more expensive than my regular shopping, but cutting out cereals, oats, protein bars and shakes may level out the grocery bill. So here we go with lower carb, higher fat intake! Experiment under way today! I will be adjusting my macros to suit the new diet. Any input or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!

No advice other than keep a notebook for the weightlifting to keep increasing your weights/strength. From my own experience just cutting calories the food bill has gone down. Basically cut in half. Cardio burns surprisingly few calories. Now that I have a heart-rate monitor I can get an accurate measure of calories burned. I burn 1300 a day with no exercise. Weightlifting and cardio burn about 300 an hour on top of that. Good luck!

The expense is greater, but only at first. Once you are keto adapted, it is really easy to get full on less food. The initial cost of such items as coconut oil are only every 4 or 5 months. Watch for sales on your favorite meats and stock up. I used to shop every day or so, now I actually only shop once or twice a week. Avoid nuts unless you can stop at 2 oz's. Use cheese for flavoring, an oz or 2 will satisfy you. Finally, don't skip the keto coffee (if you like them). Although they are high in calories, they keep you full longer, you don't get so hungry and make better choices when it is time to eat. Blessings to you!

I’m down over 25lbs since January and love this diet! I just had my blood work done and everything was perfect, including cholesterol. It’s been 16 weeks of low carb high fat/keto and I’m the thinnest I’ve been in 19 years. I feel good and have more energy. This may not be the diet for everyone, but it works great for me and I’d encourage you to give it a try! I’ve had less cravings than with just counting calories, too. Good luck!!

I'm still sitting at 17 lbs since January, feel like I hit a wall too big to get over. Something was not working for me, so the change may help. Can't wait to see the blood work after 5 weeks.

I watched it too. Made changes in my grocery list this week. Keep making changes that work for U. :)
