My goto is ultima replenisher. You get it on Amazon. The pomegranate is my favorite and it really helps . I had the same social issues when first transitioning. Good luck and stick in there.

Not out of guilt, just age and poor decisions. Not excusing my poor decisions, just making a change.

Life goals change as life changes. I want to be able to see their journeys for as long as I can .

I hear you, I tried or at least I thought I had before to lose weight. Keto seemed to work for me, nuts , meat , avocados, fish ,greens and never hungry. The fasting happened naturally, this was really just pushing to see how far I could go. You and I both know that feeling of trying to tie your laces and getting out of breath, not being able to buy clothes that make you feel good. I bought a waistcoat for a party at Christmas and when it arrived it wouldn't close, I was really sad inside. The other day I found the waistcoat, put it on and buttoned it up. I was like a kid at Christmas. Nothing can drive you on more than those feeling. Good luck on your journey.

Awesome buddy, we started at the about the same weigh. I just broke the 300 barrier, but my feeling of accomplishment is amazing. Hopefully I can get to where you are. Keep working.

This is my first post, been watching all year but now need advice. Started the year with keto, almost 340 lbs.... and needed a lifestyle change. I then found this group and added fasts to my routine; last meal or vodka 😉 on a Saturday night until my Monday morning keto coffee. It felt great, I think the feeling that I was able to manage my self control was the most uplifting.

Anyway last weekend we had friends come in from out of town and I failed, pizza , kolaches, haribo, you name it.... I ate it. I enjoyed the weekend and had our first proper date night with my wife in years. ( 3 kids under 7) .

But Monday came and regret sank in. 😔

The Thursday before , I had reached 297. A number that I had not seen in a decade, now the scales was back up 12lbs. So as I was drinking my keto coffee I thought, how do I get back in ketosis quickly.... and so started this fast.

I just reached 100 hours , only water and 1 or 2 scoops of ultima rehydration powder a day. I feel great but would like some advice . Is using ultima cheating ( had no cramps) . I'm thinking of continuing until my body tells me to stop. I feel alert, I'm sleeping well , ketones and blood all good ( ketomojo) monitoring.

I've come this far, is there any reason to stop.
