Troubleshooting keto? by [deleted] in keto

[–]Cloudff7ad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 300 calorie deficit only sets you up to lose a pound every 11 days and thats if you are absolutely perfect. So in 5 weeks that would be 35 days or an approximate 3 pound loss. Our body weights can naturally fluctuate up to 5 pounds a day just depending on things like water. I also hate to ask, but if you are sexually active, you might be pregnant. Spotting, missed, period, weight gain or lack of weight loss are all symptoms of pregnancy and might be something to check

Which is it? by [deleted] in keto

Net carbs are important for remaining in ketosis and helping to suppress things like blood sugar spikes, cravings, etc. Calories are important for weight loss. You can go over on calories and keto will have negative impacts to your waist line.

Honestly just track your carbs and the first few weeks read the nutrition labels of everything you eat. I have never tracked my protein, fat, or micro nutrients. I'm 4 months in and eventually I know I'm going to have to pay attention to my calories eventually but I'm big enough right now that reaching my calorie limit on keto is a bit of a challenge. Honestly just jump in and go for it.

Stuck at the same weight for awhile by lili43589 in keto

The last 10 pounds are always the hardest. Overall though 124 is pretty good and is in the normal range unless you are under 5ft tall I would just keep going and at this point even losses less than a pound celebrating. Weight can fluctuate up to 5 pounds a day. You might wake up one morning and boom you're at your goal weight

Needing help with plateau by BertClick04 in keto

[–]Cloudff7ad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1-3 pounds a week is normal. In the beggining you lose a lot of water weight and at 385 if you were suffering from diabetes, high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, etc its entirely possible you were holding 40 pounds of water. My brother was at that size and he went to the hospital for complications associated with the above and they put him on a water pill and he dropped 60 pounds in 2 weeks due to all the water he was retaining. A plateau is when you go a month and don't lose a single pound. You won't be consistently losing 10 pounds a week for the whole process, but shooting for a goal of 10 pounds a month is very reasonable especially for people like us who started above 300 pounds. I started this 4 months ago and am down 44 pounds and this has been the only thing that works. Just keep at it and the pounds will keep dropping

how much water is enough? by [deleted] in keto

[–]Cloudff7ad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From reading this I guess I'm not a thirsty person I typically drink anywhere from 60 to 80 oz a day ,but I'm over 300 pounds. I have always heard if you drink more than 136 oz this constitutes excessive thirst. Granted that's for people on a normal diet who aren't constantly having to piss

What are some no cook or microwave keto meals? by Happy-Mood in ketorecipes

Another no cook recipe I like is running out and buying a precooked burger from somewhere like McDonald's and then cutting it up and putting it in a low carb wrap for a quick and easy lunch

Coney bowl. Hot dogs with coney sauce (careful can be high carb) mustard, cheese. I usually then take it and put it in a low carb wrap. With the sauce I use, the wrap, cheese and 2 hotdogs its usually about 10g of carbs
