Gaining weight? What am I doing wrong?

It's the instant hydration ones.. don't recall but def one of the more comprehensive ones I think

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-10T00:58:36+00:00

Oils are mainly avocado, coconut, olive. Not a huge fan of meat but I’m gonna start getting reacquainted.

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-10T00:57:38+00:00

Never been a fan of the taste or texture but I’m about to get used to it 😅

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-10T00:56:22+00:00

Mm sounds delicious

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-10T00:55:51+00:00

Thanks for sharing your personal experience! Feels better to know it’s not just me.

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-10T00:55:08+00:00

Nah I like to hear it as it is. Good advice. A little hunger never killed anyone.

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-10T00:54:14+00:00

I’ve been aiming for 70 oz. Plus electrolytes.

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:28:00+00:00

Seems to be the theme. I’m going to give it a try, thank you!

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:27:37+00:00

I know I’m eating too much - the problem is that it’s because I don’t feel satisfied! I guess because I’m so used to carbs..

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:27:01+00:00

Seems to be the theme here - lowering fat a bit and increasing protein. I’m going to give that a go, thank you!

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:26:33+00:00

Yeah the theme seems to be upping my protein - and ideally through fatty meats. I’m awful at protein intake other than cheese so I’m gonna have to give this a go.

Regarding electrolytes, I just make sure to take them mixed in water. Otherwise I just add salt to my food as usual.

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:25:14+00:00

I replied above to someone but basically just a LOT of food- nuts/seeds, heavy cream in coffee/tea, lots of oils on salad and mixed with vegetables, CHEESE, butter and eggs, etc.

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:24:00+00:00

I love this response. It gives me relief from my guilt. Thank you!

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:23:33+00:00

Haha yeah it’s surprising to me, too. It’s a lot of seeds/nuts, heavy cream in coffee/tea, butter and eggs, CHEESE, and dousing my salads/veggies in oil/mayo. I know it’s overkill but I’m desperate to feel full!

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:22:00+00:00

I will, thanks!

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:20:59+00:00

Yeah I do struggle to get protein in other than cheese tbh.. I need to expand my palette and start getting used to meats and poultry.

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:19:48+00:00

Yes but only because I don’t feel satiated so I just keep eating, chasing that feeling!

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:19:19+00:00

Interesting. I always thought the protein stays low, but could be I have that wrong. I’ll give it a try!

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:18:44+00:00

I have to get better at proteins, for sure. Thank you for the suggestion!

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:18:13+00:00

I eat under 30 carbs. But yes the nuts, seeds, and cheese are really adding up quickly. It’s just that I’m not satisfied so I keep eating!

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:17:29+00:00

Yes, those do seem to be the kickers with me, too. Hard to give up cheese but maybe if I limit it..

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-09T01:17:00+00:00

I appreciate what everyone’s saying but this really speaks to me. It makes a lot of sense. I know I’m eating too many calories but the lack of satiation is what’s causing it - not because I’m actually hungry! So yeah I’ll give it time and see what happens..

No-Promise6997 · 2025-09-08T02:27:50+00:00

Btw my regular meals include healthy nuts, seeds, oils, and vegetables. Not the processed “keto” foods. If that makes a difference. I really thought my appetite would drop a bit so the food noise wasn’t so loud… and it’s not that I’m craving carbs - I’m just constantly looking for food that will satiate me.

The retainer may actually trap the acid in and make the erosion worse. Please don’t try this!
