What is Magsoothe? If it is some kind of magnesium supplement, it could be that causing your diarrhea. Too much magnesium causes the runs.

No magsoothe is not it, I been taking that before bed for years, I sleep awesome on it, I pretty much know what I need to feel good, the shits is from changing my eating from 2 meals a day to one and breaking a fast, I ran out of jigsaw health MagSRT the best magnesium ever, itās sustain release, good for leg cramps and muscle tension, for when I go for a bike ride, I ride a tadpole Recumbent trike And itās a real workout on my legs, and I have spray on magnesium for now till I get more magSRT
and thank you to everyone for help getting my Cronometer set up, I didnāt think I was losing weight but my wife said I am, others seem to notice just a slow process, itās hard to get to sleep before midnight because I worked 2nd shift driving forklift so long, now I am a night owl trying to get to sleep earlier

Well everyone says I donāt need fiber or vegetables but I know I cannot get enough nutrients out of meats alone or everyone in the world would be eating meat only, when there are many healing nutrients in vegetables, all vegetables is not healthy nor is all meat, itās about moderation and eating what works, I know when I was on the stupid American diet I was not getting enough of the right kinds of fiber, then I found whole psyllium husk, and that healed my intestines and then I went keto was feeling good with psyllium husk 30 minutes before a meal and pooped perfect floaters and then did zero carb and complete destroyed what i just got done healing up. So back to keto, and I just saw a video of the that dr that you ppl talk about as the guy that started this woe and he says that vegetables are very important I will look for the video

And I developed an infection while on carnivore and because of eating so much protein I wasnāt in ketosis because protein is anti-ketogenic, he even says in the video that carnivore has not been tested and that you canāt get enough potassium out of meat alone and that you need vegetables thatās why I try to get a lot of mushrooms cauliflower and spinach and still stay under 20 net grams and one avocado every day

i keep reading that keto is not a weight loss diet.
what makes you shed pounds is the intermittent fasting.
if youāve been doing this for 3 years then you should be very fat adapted now.
have you tried 36h+ fasts?
iāve been doing 60h fasts since the beginning of june.
if you havenāt done fasts before, try shorter durations and see how you feel.

I just started intermittent fasting, I used to just eat 3 meals a day because you all say itās easier to fast when fat adapted and I never thought I was yet because of stress and staying up late and I was not real concerned about losing weight until I realized wow Iāve been doing this for over three years and I havenāt lost as much weight as everybody else has, so I never fasted, and read how ppl get the shits from trying to fast or coming out of it I guess so I figured Iām not going there because I am trying heal my intestines again after getting a fissure from no fiber but like 8 to 10 grams of sodium to just poop decent, so now Iām doing 2 meals a day to stay, eating noon and 6 pm no snacking, I used to eat some cheese on carnivore when I was so hungry and didnāt see anything in a gas station in the middle of nowhere so not many choices, for me itās just trial and error see what works, but it sucks when I run out of money and need food to eat and will not cheat because that sets me back as long as a week of more to get sugar stores out and keto flu comes back, in the beginning I had keto flu for almost 8 weeks was insane and most my friends on the diet were like wow I never got any keto flu or I only had it for a couple days

Ok going for a bike ride, and ty everyone, I like reading your posts, not everything I agree with but most I do, I just try some things other ppl have tried like a good Example is coconut oil I tried 2 tablespoons at first got the shits and everybody else said oh you got to start smaller, so I went to a teaspoon still got the shits went to a half teaspoon still got the craps no matter what I did it just didnāt work I just figured that coconut Oil was just not for me my gut just canāt take it, but because the fact that butter and cheese causes plus if you look it up online I donāt eat a whole lot of cheese if any at all and I use butter but only that stuff called ghee itās called when I can afford it, and bacon for my fat and eggs, and on carnivore I couldnāt eat eggs but I can eat eggs on keto itās very strange but thatās me I guess I donāt know

Was looking at the video you posted (a lecture by Dr. Phinney) and underneath that was a lecture by Dr. Jeffery Gerber which is really interesting and has to do with your issue.
Dr. Jeffry Gerber - 'When Weight Loss Stallsā
If I could not lose body fat around the torso, I would be lifting weights twice a week because it would mimic fasting so that body fat will go to your arms and spare protein or another way to explain it; body fat spares muscle when fasting but your just speeding up the process by placing resistance against the muscle tissue. I know some people cannot lift weights for whatever reason but if you could, it would certainly help.
When I lift weights I donāt sit their and constantly pump a weight, the weights I lift weigh more than I do, Iām trying to tear muscles and thatās all Iām trying to do; ten reps for each quarter of body mass, some squats and Iām done, of course it looks nice if you want to look like your doing something and just pumping away with little tiny weights ā¦lol
Hurts like hell for weeks but then you get hysterically happy when you start seeing your belly melt away.
Hence the term āGetting Rippedā and they are not talking about the ripples on your six pack!

If that were true youād be dead right now. You either ate enough carbs to power your body for over a yearā¦OR you were in ketosis. Our bodies canāt run on nothing.

Yes I want to lift weights but I canāt afford to buy them and the ymca and other places like that are closed because of the stupid virus, and I had to stop consuming soup with MSG because itās a neurotoxin very bad will not consume that again, but ty I will lift if I can find a way, I ride recumbent trike instead it really works my leg muscles which are the biggest muscles in your body

Well I had diarrhea damn near every day it was literally hell the most crappist diet or way of eating ever I would never go back to it again itās literally the stupidest thing Iāve ever heard of nothing against other people that actually like it but it aināt for me, because I really need those extra vegetables to get the potassium and other nutrients that you canāt get from meat alone or vegetables wouldnāt even exist as far as Iām concerned

Meat can provide everything but carnivore isnāt for everyone as keto isnāt either, itās fine. (And eggs are totally carnivore, by the way. Meat is unavoidable but not the only item.)
A lot of species exist that is not good for humans, not everything is for us. Actually, nothing is for the humans only. So I donāt consider it a big reason to eat vegetables but I donāt care anyway: I eat whatever I like, sounds right and feels good. If a woe doesnāt work, tweak it, donāt wait for yearsā¦
Our nutrient needs are different too. Cronometer tells many people that they have huge deficits while the people are fine and their results show that too. we change our diet and our needs change and so onā¦ So I donāt care so much about the numbers but if I feel bad, I listen to that and change things. Sadly, itās tricky. No one can tell you what is the ideal woe for youā¦
I lift weights. I was super poor when I bought my weight, fortunately they were cheap (and I am weak). I couldnāt afford going to a gym. Not ideal but will do for now. But one can train without weights too, using their own bodyweight. Itās surely way better than nothing. I want to train my muscles, not bragging about big weights anyway (not like I have much chance for that with my not young and lazy female body but itās not the point)ā¦ But I like my weights so itās good I have them

There is a book called āYou are Your Own Gymā which does strength training through body weight exercises and items you can use from around your house. It is a pretty effective workout and you can do it in your own home.

Iāll agree on that all day long, gave carnivore a couple weeks and it was too restrictive for me. I started craving salad, like CRAVING it, and I donāt eat a lot of them. But you were definitely in ketosis. The disaster pants is actually pretty common. Just gotta find what works for you man.

And my blood pressure was so high on carnivore I could not get it to come down no matter what but as soon as I went back to Keto it dropped, so I will stay on keto forever and trial and error and doing what works for me still researching, I think I was drinking so much coffee with Too much cream I figured That I gave up so many things I thought well Iām going to drink my coffee and lots of cheese, now I hardly eat cheese, I just canāt digest it, but I am exercising more now that my crapping has slowed down from changing my meal times around and breaking a short fast that my body hasnāt done before

I think I was over 20 net gram carbs and higher but never higher than 35, and I ate too much meat even though it was fatty
