7+ weeks and im not making progress

#85

Ok well I’m glad to hear that. I’ve been having a tough time the last 4 days with wanting diet soda, I hope I can get it in check. It’s the one and only thing that I ingest that’s a no no. Been strict carnivore now for about 8 or 9 days. Living for Saturday’s weigh in!

The other reason that can be you are not burning fat is that you are consuming too much fat, so you are on Ketosis but you are burning only the fat that you eat.

Mmm I don’t think that’s it but thanks for trying to help me troubleshoot :slight_smile:

So this morning it was 91. In the past before keto and carnivore it was in the lows 80’s. Should I be concerned?

(Ron) #90

Not at all. This is a normal thing and will probably balance out down the road.

Hi, @kiwado
Did you weigh today? How was it?

#94

I test 3-4x/day – in the morning before I eat or drink anything, sometime around mid-day, after exercise (if I done any), and either before dinner or before I go to bed.

#95

80s and 90s are great for blood sugars. I can’t remember if you are a T2DM, but if so, your range for BS is 70-120. If not a T2, the range is 80-120.

#96

Going to gym at 630 I wanna weigh every time using the same scale… nervous!!! Will post one the deed is done

#97

Not a t2 or t1

#98

OK, so your normal range is 80-120.

My body likes losing 4 pounds a month apparently… gotta jump start this metabolism of mine

(Donna ) #100

4 lbs a month is great! Way to go!

(Lonnie Hedley) #101

Agree. 1 lb a week or 48-52 lbs a year. That’s a healthy rate of loss.

(Ron) #102

Ad that to the rebuilding structure that is going on and I would say your a great success! Way to go @kiwado, congrats!:boom::boom::sparkler::sparkler::boom:
