There appears to be posters asking questions about ketones, although I'm testing at the moment by using sticks, I'm confused too. A stick I used before I went to bed showed up quite dark, yet in the morning the stick showed there weren't any ketones.... what's going on? There appears to be...

There are lots of 'keto experts' on Internet, when in fact they are merely saying what works for them! In my view it's a voyage of discovery, we're all different. The idea of keto is to eat under 20g carbs a day. Take a look at dietdoctor.com, you can trust that website. Join an app that...

5.9 @ 6.15 this morning. I gained a kg a week ago despite being good, glad 0.9kg of it vanished this morning:)

Have a look at the 'Carb Addiction Doctor' - I'm sure once you understand what causes insulin spikes caused by carbs entering your body, you'll feel you've been given a dose of freedom! It's not easy, but the rewards are mega!

It'll be a NO for beans, toast, pizza, chips - roast dinner is fine so long as there're no potatoes. I believe there're some Indian dishes that don't carry too many carbs. Have you got a blood glucose meter? It would help you to discover what foods are causing you a problem.

This is what I'm afraid of, something quite simple can trigger me to binge. I've removed anything that's tempting away, I get tortured by these things being in the cupboard. I'm debating with myself at the moment, should throw out half a jar of peanut butter that's in the cupboard? Just a...

I see the Co Op sells:

What about full fat Greek Yogurt? Tesco Finest doesn't add sugars. INGREDIENTS: Greek Yogurt (Milk).

Thank you Eric, well done for digging your heals in and doing the research needed, it couldn't have been easy researching with such anxiety. Hope you've now been referred to a knowledgeable doctor. Welcome to the forum!

Bacon, 1 sausage and scrambled eggs for breakfast... please may I never get fed up of this breakfast!:woot: Fridge is looking a bit empty and Tesco doesn't deliver until Friday, so I'm debating do I really need to go to the small local Sainsburys for a few provisions.... can I stretch what I...

Please do let us know how you're getting on. It also encourages others on the same journey as you.

Had a new low 4.9 :)

It took just 3 tablets to say 'no more'! I've now gone full on keto and have never felt so well for a long time, nor have I enjoyed my food so much. I bought a blood glucose meter and I analyse each food 1-2 hours after eating to get a good idea what food spikes an insulin reaction. Some on...

Starting not to feel too guilty when indulging in 5-6 rashers of bacon and 2 fried eggs for breakfast. It suddenly dawned that I'm only replacing the slices of bread I would have had with the extra rashers. Somehow 6 rashers of crispy bacon sounds so decadent. Dinner, fish pie... chunks of...

If a veg is grown underground...... walk away!

5.1 @ 06:10 :)

Shocker! "Sir, - On Friday, January 8th, I read the account of Dr. Salisbury's treatment in the Pall Mall Gazette, and determined to try the effect of it in my own case. Seven years ago, I weighed 11 st. 12 lbs. (height, 5 ft. 9 in.), and when I trained for my college-boat I always lost five...

I second Diet Doctor! Have you tried https://www.reddit.com/r/keto/ good support and inspiration on there. Here's what they say about their community: "The Ketogenic Diet is a low carbohydrate method of eating. /r/keto is place to share thoughts, ideas, benefits, and experiences around eating...

You've reminded me of what my mother used to love, leftover puddings buttered and sprinkled with sugar..... definitely not nice, no, no way is that nice..... no not nice at all....:(
