[QUOTE="Goonergal, post: 1687499, member: 368709"] A few random thoughts. How many carbs are you getting up to in a day? It could be overall consumption of them rather than a small amount of something reducing satiety. A week is not a very long trial of a new way of eating and your body may still be adjusting so worth persevering. For me blood sugar control was the main priority when I started out and although I reduced carbs right down straightaway, weight loss was initially slow as I snacked and didn’t look at portion size. However, I didn’t allow desserts or anything resembling sweet stuff until I’d adapted to eating keto and weight loss was speeding up. Helped to remove cravings. Gradually my appetite got smaller and I naturally started eating less and was able to introduce intermittent fasting, which really sped things up. Now I am at a ‘normal’ weight (but still trying to shed a bit more) things are complicated again - the moral is you need to keep adjusting, but don’t change too much at once (so you know what is impacting on what) and give changes time to take effect.
