I have 120 pounds to lose. I started Keto on Sept 22, 17 (about 5 weeks ago). After two weeks where I lost 20 pounds (mostly water, I know) I have stalled out completely and I am even gaining some.
I track everything I eat (LoseIt App), I have kept at 1400 calories or less and 71% Good Fats and 25% protein with less than 40 Carbs per day. I am never hungry and sometime have to force myself to eat. I have tried intermittant fasting where I go twelve hours or more with no food just water.
I know that some things are improving. My blood pressure has dropped enough that I am told not to take my BP medicine anymore. I seem to be sleeping better and have seriously reduced the number and intensity of hot flashes.
But now at three weeks of perfect behavior, I am losing heart on the weight loss front. This forum is helping to keep me calm about a stall without weight gain, but I have gained 8 pounds back and I REALLY have been good.
I am in second from the highest Keto zone on my pee strip consistently.
Ideas?
