Do you guys see any correlation between coffee/water intake and weight loss?

My water consumption has naturally gone down. Maybe it's calories or something. Caffeine has been shown to spike insulin. Insulin will prevent fat burning. This normally only comes in to play toward the end, when you're trying to get the last 10 pounds. |

Since you brought it up, I did an unscientific study on Facebook, asking ladies to pick their preference. All but one picked a range of 10-15%, rather than a single picture. What I didn't tell them was 20% is average, 15% is considered fit, and 12% and below is athletes. The lone exception that picked 20% was an older woman (60+), who herself is not fit. I found this interesting and suspect she chose what looked good within her age group. |

Even "skinny" or muscular people tend to vastly underestimate how much they can stand to lose. Good example is fighters fighting at the bottom of their weight class and their stats. Check out what they weigh for their height and musculature. |

I have done keto before.
What I want to know though is can I go in it briefly to cut some fat while still maintaining my lifts? I know there is adjustment time etc. I want to keep calorie intake the same. |

This normally only comes in to play toward the end, when you're trying to get the last 10 pounds. I seemed to have stalled as well and I am only on week five. I have been drinking a cup of coffee in the morning but water all day and only water so I don't know what is going on. Getting a little frustrated but perhaps I am being to anxious about it. I am at 174 and really want to get down to 160-165 so I don't know if it is just harder for someone who doesn't have a ton to lose or as mentioned that last 10 pounds. I am 5'7, 42 yrs old with about 22% bf so I know there is plenty to get rid of. Trying to get down to 15-18% bf. I work out 4-5 days every week and have been for about 2 years. I have a gym at work and a personal trainer that I have been working with for the last 8 months which has been a big help. Did Paleo for the last 2 years and just recently switch to Keto. I know my carbs are ~20g but don't think I am getting enough fat. I find it is hard to eat enough when 1, I am not that hungry and 2, well its just hard to eat a lot. I am probably only getting 1500 calories and can't say what I burn from hour long workouts consisting mostly of weight training but mixed with cardio and agility training. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By dog-meat:
I know there are some diabetics here so hopefully someone has ideas on this question: I bought a glucose meter from walmart because I've been curious about testing the blood sugar reaction of various keto fake foods. Like mug cakes, quest bars, stevia, xylitol, etc. I read a thread on reddit where a guy showed big blood sugar swings on quest bars but I can eat a couple of them per day and not have any problems staying in ketosis (According to piss strips). I'm in deep purple ketosis according to keto strips. Had not eaten since 11 this morning (about 7 hours ago). Lunch was dried ground beef (only seasoning before drying was = salt, pepper, liquid smoke, very little garlic powder, and prague powder #1). Took the test with the walmart relion meter and it showed 111. Tried again after washing hands again with soap and water and on a different finger. Maybe 3 minutes later. 105 I'm not diabetic and haven't eaten anything but ground beef, steak, eggs, heavy cream, and salads with mixed greens + olive oil & lemon juice dressing in like four days. My fasting tests at my docs for the annual checkups are usually around 85. I have a friend who lives less than a mile away who is diabetic who does regular finger sticks. So I called up and went over there to try his meter. Same drop of blood two different meters. Friend's meter = 75, new walmart meter = 109. Am I doing something wrong that it could be off that much? I can't imagine the 100+ reading being correct. Are you sure the meter is properly coded to the strips? My meter came with a standard solution. The whole thing has sat in my jump kit for 3 years so everything was expired. I got new strips and found that they differed from the expired strips by 20 points, and the standard solution was nowhere close to its calibration. When I first got the meter, it tested within calibration tolerance. If you can find a standard solution, that's a good way to check the meter. My strips have the expected reading printed on their container. Here's an example. It looks like the solution is specifically matched to a certain test strip. https://www.walgreens.com/store/c/onetouch-ultra-control-solution-vials/ID=prod2330419-product?ext=gooPLA_-_Home_Medical&pla&adtype=pla&kpid=sku2329897&sst=27d09727-722d-450f-b2c0-783fc5c13784 |

You may see a small decrease or plateau especially early on but any other way you cut os likely to result in more lost muscle mass and decreased lifts |

If I'm in a hurry, I'll cook most of the way in the pan, then finish under the broiler.
Otherwise, I cook a quarter on the way in the pan, then 15-20 in the oven at 350. Oven makes for more fluffy. |

Every woman that I've been in a relationship has been ok with me gaining weight and I've never been under 12%. That latest BS that the liberals are pushing now is the "dad body" is what all women are most attracted to. The dad body looks like the 30% picture. I see it as nothing more than the liberals want a completely feminized and weak man. |

In on 87 I agree with this, many people don't realize how much extra unnecessary weight they carry around every day. I think this is where body composition testing shines. I know that at 24.5% I had 57 pounds of fat in my body at 233 lbs. You can't get rid of all fat, but I knew that if I lose 20lbs of fat I will 17% body fat and if I lose 30lbs of fat I would be at 13% which would be pretty sporty. Knowing how much muscle/lean mass you have can help you with realistic goals. It can also protect you from going too low. BMI chart says I need to be at 189, that would put me at 6% body fat which is bodybuilder tight and I would think largely unsustainable. |

Been following this thread for a bit and decided to give it a shot, started a week ago. Most of my eating is done at home, but my job keeps me very mobile and does not always give me an option to bring food from home. We do have a refrigerator at our Ops Center, but I have many shifts I see the office for the first hour then not again until it is time to go home at the end of a 12hr shift. I know there are some options that I can just bring with me in the truck, but was looking for some suggestions on casual dining or fast food that would work with the Keto Diet.
Looking over some different places menus and nutritional info I see lots of high fat options, but is it a bad fat? or does it even make a difference? Playing around with different foods in MFP I see where I can get the percentage breakdown I need, but am curious if these will be an OK option for those days that I am on the run. Thanks in advance, looking forward to dropping some weight and getting headed back in the right direction with my health. |

So, 5 weeks into 2017. Down 22.8. Still 38.7 to go this year. A large chunk of that, 9 lbs, was this past week. My wife had surgery on Monday so I stayed home with her. I don't eat a whole lot when I'm just sitting at home. I'm back to work and things should get back to basics this week.

No offence, but I'll throw a egg away that has brown edges. Just a personal preference. I like them over light with the white fully cooked and the yolk still wet. A little less than you prefer. Try lowering the heat so the eggs don't dance in the pan and sear. When cooking the first side take a spatula and gentle pull the white away from the yolk a few times so it cooks evenly. After that, just flip and cook to medium. |

The human body doesn't want to exist there. Going below 15% can be somewhat of a difficult balancing act. We weren't meant to be "ripped", or at least not that ripped. Getting below 10 also looks fucking gross. I stay around 18 now but was 13 for most of my younger years. I don't care to get that low again, but 15 would be a nice place to stay, but it really takes work now that I am older. |

We do have a refrigerator at our Ops Center, but I have many shifts I see the office for the first hour then not again until it is time to go home at the end of a 12hr shift. I know there are some options that I can just bring with me in the truck, but was looking for some suggestions on casual dining or fast food that would work with the Keto Diet. Looking over some different places menus and nutritional info I see lots of high fat options, but is it a bad fat? or does it even make a difference? Playing around with different foods in MFP I see where I can get the percentage breakdown I need, but am curious if these will be an OK option for those days that I am on the run. Thanks in advance, looking forward to dropping some weight and getting headed back in the right direction with my health. Carls Jr/Hardees online menu lets you calculate nutrition by removing ingredients on any of their sandwiches. And they will lettuce wrap anything. Takes many burgers from 62 carbs down to 5, just getting rid of the bun. |

With casual dining, your best bet would probably be some place that does 24hr breakfast. Bacon, sausage, eggs, etc. Always ask for plain eggs; some places like Ihop add pancake batter to scrambled eggs. |

This thread has been a great help, my girlfriend and I are starting our first day on Keto today. We both have a good amount to lose. I do have a question, in the bullet proof coffee, which would be better MCT oil or straight organic coconut oil from Trader Joes? MCT or both if it is a GOOD coconut oil. |

Anyone experiencing a keto weight loss stall or know why it happens? I wouldn't call it a plateau as I haven't lost enough weight or been losing for long enough for my metabolism to adjust. In the first 10 days I lost about 8 pounds, then a pound the next 4 days. However, keeping the same calorie restricted, intermittent fasting, keto diet the next 5 days I stayed about the same but was was actually increasing 0.1 pound per day. The 6th day I woke up and weight 4 pounds less. No diet change, no water intake change, no massive dump...nothing. I'm not 4 weeks or so in and just had the same thing happen. I dropped to 227, then went 227.2, 227.5, 227.8, 228.2 but this morning 225.8. All while keeping the same calorie restricted, intermittent fasting, keto diet. I eat roasted almonds that I cover in extra salt to keep my salt intake up and caffeine pills during the day. I'm mainly just curious as to what causes the body to hold onto the weight and how it is holding it.
