I have people asking me to make my fathead meat lovers (aka the gluconeogenisis monster) pizza for them now, I honestly can say I prefer it to maybe one or two deep dish Chicago styles I have had.
Thank you to all who have helped me!

Wow, amazing how much milk consumption in this group. Me too, 1/2 gallon a day for as long as I can remember buying milk for myself. Was a tough one for me too!

Although, I do like tbe fact that I can drink heavy cream guilt free. My favorite desert is a square of 90% dark chocolate with a chaser of HWC… and by chaser I mean like a highball glass

Woke up at 3:00 a.m. to drink so much milk I sometimes chocked, and a half box of triscuits. Went cold turkey and thoroughly enjoy the sleep. This WOE is so beneficial for me. But need to take it day by day. No extremists!

In my opinion (which often doesn’t mean much), extremism is a setup for failure. For keto to work as a lifestyle, you need to have room for flexibility. Even Jason Fung says to eat cake on your birthday. The problem is eating cake EVERY DAY

Sorry - can’t resist. Eight glasses of milk at night versus toothpaste?

Don’t sweat it Regina, not everyone here knows what the hell they are talking about, its all opinion, some informed others are not. Why should you leave because your point of view is not the same as someone else’s? Best post on this forum is the following which I read whenever I come across someone who is behaving like a dickhead. Brenda is the best when it comes to people trying to force their own Keto opinion on others, there is NO perfect way to do Keto, hence the n=1 tag which is becoming popular. End of rant. Just read this post, its brilliant and so true, you might change your mind after reading it. KCKO.

Thank you so much! I don’t want to leave the group, just took a comment the wrong way. I don’t need to agree with everyone, right? This is a personal journey. Got freaked out by the toothpaste comment. Can’t wait to share my Keto challenge with you (starting Monday). And value ladies of a certain age (over 60) highly.

And I really appreciate your reply. Got to wrap my mind around the crowd mentality.

I’m 20 years removed from being able to give an educated opinion, but I always preferred the darker side of his works. Of the last five, the sonata in Cm is my favorite.
Interesting tidbit (well, interesting might be overstated), Beethoven wasn’t actually completely deaf, just hearing impaired. He started losing his hearing at a relatively young age, and he was nearly deaf by the time he died, but he could, in fact, hear his own music.

Trust me, I know the epileptic protocol restricts toothpaste. But I am not doing it for that reason. Triglycerides and belly fat. I just got unreasonably upset with the toothpaste poster. My bad.

Being noob hence–new to the forum–I am glad you have decided to stay. I too am small and sometimes feel intimidated by those who have weight loss as their goal. Having said that I think there is a place for us, the benefits far outweigh the butting of heads.

Yes, I am small, but have way too much belly, and way too many triglycerides. Tiny fat people unite!
