I saw your "day 7" post and i think you may be eating too much protein, you should be eating more fat than protein. protein can act similarly to carbs in the way it stores sugar and releases insulin. I try to go for 5% carbs, 30% protein, and 60% fat. you should only eat as much protein in grams per pound of LEAN MUSCLE mass. i hope this helps. dont forget your small "gains" could also be muscle or water weight.

Well I was doing the Palumbo Diet which is a bit different than regular keto. It goes better with weight lifting. But I think I'm just going to do traditional keto now. :)

coconut oil is EXTREMELY fattening btw

But that's the point of a moderate protein, high fat, low carb diet. Right?

Yes! LeeAnna is coming for Mardi Gras!

I'm so excited!

Amazing.

Day 8

Weigh in: 183.8 (up .3) Total weight loss: 2.2lbs Ugh. I had a cheat meal today. So not much to report.

Day 7

Weighed in at: 183.5 lbs (up a 1lb) Total weight loss to date: 2.5 lbs How I feel: I cried all morning because I am so disappointed in my body response to this diet. I was hoping to at least be down 5.5 lbs by today. I reached a little under half of that. But my mood greatly increased as my husband was wonderful and picked up all baby and house duties today. I left for a couple hours by myself and went to the mall and bought a new low carb protein mix and a pair of pants. I followed my diet to a t today and felt great. I did a low intensity walk for an hour and felt even better. How this diet is actually effecting me: Peeing has normalized, even though my intake is still increased. No headaches. I have constant energy and no hunger cravings. How much water I drank: 11 cups (5.5 water bottles) My energy level: Constant energy. What I ate: Breakfast- 3 omega-3 eggs & 6 egg whites with coconut oil. In between meal- 8 oz vanilla protein shake. Lunch- Organic Butter Lettuce, 5 pieces of shrimp, 10 almonds and half an avocado. In between meal- 24 oz berry mix protein shake & 5 grilled shrimp. Dinner- 20 pieces of shrimp & a fourth of a pork tender loin. 1125 calories (walked 60 minutes). 32g of fat - I should be at 50g UNDER 32g of carbs - I should be at 37g UNDER 209g of protein - I should be at 223g UNDER You may notice that I changed my daily intake totals. I did some more research and came up with some different variables I should be hitting. This has all been frustrating. I’ve been in ketosis this entire time. My breakdown was 9% carb/31% fat/60% protein almost perfect.
