I’ve written many times I need to gain weight, and I’d like to do it ketogenically. I have abdominal adhesions which make digestion difficult. I’m also pescatarian for that reason as well as others. Getting a lot of fat in is hard. There’s only so many avocados you can eat, and I don’t want to eat more than 1.5 - 2 oz nuts.
I always test high for ketones in my bloodwork, 150.00 4+
I’m not sure how bad this is. Since I’m underweight I think my body is eating myself. So I’m trying to figure out how I can get my body to stop eating itself (eat more food I know…sounds simple but it isn’t in my case)
I’m not crazy about eating oils but I think I may need them.I thought ketone rich foods would help matters (im dairy free so no cheese or butter). Would give my brain energy and calories so it’s not eating up the rest of my calories.
I tried coconut oil again. The jar we have is probably 5 years old however it is organic extra virgin by nutiva which they say lasts almost indefinitely. My mom did it with me and we were both getting a bit ill. I think I was getting used to it, but there was still something I didn’t like about it. If I took it at night I was fine, during the day I would not feel good. Is it possible it is rancid? Should I purchase a new jar and keep trying? Should I try coconut flakes even if they have sugar? I really prefer savory over sweet things. I’m pretty desperate. I’ve even been eating fish oil (moleculary distilled sockeye salmon liquid oil) to get calories. It says it is NSF certified. I just hope It is safe. I don’t really like the feeling of eating something that seems like medicine for food (it tastes a bit that way too with the tocopherols) I’ve requested analysis for it but still haven’t gotten it. It’s by Vital Choice which I think is a pretty trustworthy company. There’s so much talk about olive and avocado oils being fake that it’s scared me from eating them.
