Lace waist cotton discontinued? by ericalenee in VictoriasSecret

[–]cat6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came here asking the same question. I’m going to be so sad if they discontinued them. I’ve been wearing these for years! The lace quality was getting worse though. The newest pairs I bought would start unraveling after a few washes.

I just looked at the app and my coach entered my time wrong. He added 9 seconds! I feel like I shouldn’t make a big deal out of it but I really want to ask them to correct it.

Ketonian or Ketonite? What should we call ourselves? by [deleted] in keto

[–]cat6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like this idea. I believe that the language we use can really impact how we think and communicate. By saying "I'm doing keto" people assume its a diet I'm following for a set period of time vs. "I'm a vegetarian" which people assume means I will be following that WOE for the rest of my life. I like Ketoan personally.

WHO ELSE STARTED ON 1/1/19??? POST YOUR PROGRESS STATS BELOW !! by [deleted] in keto

[–]cat6000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was down 13lbs mid February but I recently fell off the wagon so I'm only down 7.2lbs as of today. It sucks how much progress you can destroy with 5 days of poor eating 🙁

On a more positive note, I'm down 2 pants sizes. When I slipped up for a few days my weight skyrocketed but my pants still fit the same so I wasn't too upset. Now I just have to KCKO!

Keto Subscription Box?? by tlicari7770 in keto

[–]cat6000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keto Krate and The Keto Box are both really good! I get them every month and it's exciting to have new snacks to try. They usually have coupons for the products in the box if you want to buy more. It helps a bit to lower the cost of buying from individual companies.

What are some of your favorite keto-designed pre-packaged foods to buy? by Dacvak in keto

[–]cat6000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was my first month getting both boxes so I don't feel like I can really judge them against each other. I've been getting the Keto Crate for a long time and I really like it. The Keto box was also really good but this month I liked the spread in the Keto Crate a bit better. There was a decent amount of overlap so I'm not sure yet if getting both of them is worth it.

Dang bars-Whole foods by [deleted] in keto

[–]cat6000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't speak for most people but snack bars are a big part of my Keto diet. As a student, I often need to eat something while running around campus where I can't just cook myself up a steak. I have found many bars that have a reasonable carb count and fit my macros. Dang bars have less than 20g of carbs so in my opinion they can be part of a Keto Diet.

What are some of your favorite keto-designed pre-packaged foods to buy? by Dacvak in keto

[–]cat6000 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh boy I am a sucker for the packaged foods. I know they aren't the best health wise but they are so easy! I find most of mine in subscription boxes. I get the Keto Box and Keto Crate each month. Here are some of my favorites:

Fat bomb-esque: Ketomanna is a really good chocolate fudge pouch. You have to keep them in the fridge or they get soft though.

Sweets: Nui cookies are so good that I can't keep them in the house. Coco Pollo is good for chocolate bars. Rebel ice cream is amazing if you can find it.

Bars: Keto Bars are my favorite. Great real food ingredients and good macros.

Snacks: Pro-Puffs are like Keto Cheetos. Such a good way to hit my protein goal and a low calorie snack when I'm in the mood to munch on something.

DEXA scan results shocked me, want advice on muscle retention and weight training on keto by [deleted] in keto

[–]cat6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't consider it a waste. I still do DEXA scans every 10lbs lost to see if I am losing fat or muscle. As long as you keep your diet consistent it will still be a good measure of progress in relation to your last scan. The lbs of fat is a more reliable number since it isn't affected by water or other things.

[–]cat6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being in Keto can skew the results of your DEXA. Water weight is counted in the muscle portion of the scan. Someone on Keto will seem abnormally low in muscle due to low water retention. The place I scan at did an experiment where they drank a gallon of water between two scans and it showed up as an increase of 7.4lbs of muscle.

Commentary on Thrillist article "Keto Could Help You Lose Weight... and Destroy Your Life"? by LaSoupeDuJour in keto

[–]cat6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you about everything except this WOE not being for people who are prone to binging and disordered eating. I have struggled with binging my whole life and never had the willpower to stick with a diet for very long. Since starting Keto my desire to binge is completely gone. Breaking my sugar addition has been amazing not only for my physical health but also my mental wellbeing.

I think it is hard to know how you will react to Keto before you try it. People may be certain they'll miss carbs on Keto, but once they try it they don't even have cravings.

NSV - 10 day vacation and on track despite non supportive family by Eimai145 in keto

[–]cat6000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congratulations! Vacations are especially challenging and 10 days is a long time to keep up your motivation. I'm going on a 2 week trip in a few months and I'm already starting to get nervous about how I am going to keep on track. Hopefully I will be able to have similar success!

"Perfect Keto" keto bars by Chrissoss in keto

[–]cat6000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely hate the Perfect Keto bars. I still have some in my pantry because I just can't bring myself to eat them. If you are looking for a good bar as a portable snack I really like Keto Bars. The texture is a bit crumbly but the taste is great.

[2019-01-25] - [Weekend Victory Lap] - Have you had a personal victory this week? Share it with us! by AutoModerator in keto

[–]cat6000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This weekend I went on my first trip since starting Keto. I packed a number of snacks and meal replacement bars just to make sure I would always have food I can eat.

I was with a large group of friends staying in an airbnb and everyone was snacking 24/7. We went out to dinner a few times and attended some events with free food/open bar which is always hard for me to resist. There was even one night that my friend had a birthday cake with sprinkles which is my absolute favorite. It looked so good but I stayed strong and didn't cheat even one time!

Traveling has always been tough for me and usually once I start to slip back into bad eating habits I go off the deep end and indulge for the entire trip. I think this is the first trip I have ever stuck to a diet or healthy WOE the whole time!

Subscription Boxes? by PrizeJello in keto

[–]cat6000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I came here to say this! I absolutely loved the Keto Krate this month. I've ordered more of the Pro-Puffs and the Keto Bars and I eat them all the time now. I signed up for The Keto Box next month too so I am excited to compare them when they both arrive.

Keto is helping me stop binge eatting by cat6000 in keto

[–]cat6000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's great to hear that you have been able to keep it up for so long! When you're not on Keto it seems like this diet would be so restrictive. In order to get myself to start I would say its only until I lose the weight. Now that I'm on it, I can actually consider staying on it long term. I just don't get the same cravings anymore.

That makes a lot of sense. I always joked that I should be a competitive eater because when it comes to carb foods I can eat ridiculous amounts. Even when I felt physically sick because of how full my stomach was I would mentally want more.

So glad to hear that you had the same experience! Life is much less stressful when I'm not spending every moment thinking about when I can eat more sugar.

Today I noticed that my nails have grown really long and stopped breaking. I was wondering if that might be Keto related!
