    Go ahead. It's a great idea to keep track and show your progress.
    I've been losing a few pounds lately, but I want to stay close to my target weight. I have noticed my weight can swing a bit if I don't eat properly. For example, I will 'cheat' once per week to gain a little weight back by devouring some pasta (with loads of fatty meat and olive oil) or perhaps it's a couple English muffins with Italian meats and egg and a touch of mustard...
    In any case, I find it easy to bounce back in and maintain the Keto lifestyle. I do not believe this would have been a good idea back when I was trying to lose the weight.

    @Alanaana , congrats on the 10mi run. My longest so far is 10k (6.2), some day I'll get to 10+ but it's not a real priority.
    I've been doing more of a keto-vore diet, less veg and more meat. If you have not already, check out Dr. Ken Berry on YT.
    Yes the sweet cravings go away, but if you every have something sweet you are back to square 1. Try making some brown butter bites (search YT, but it's really just boiling butter until it 'caramelizes'). The make a wonderful fat snack and can replace your sweet cravings. I find that the butter bites made with salted butter taste better than unsalted.

    @Alanaana , yup, we did the same thing with our first batch of BBB. Wife cooked it in a cast iron skillet and it was hard to tell when it was done.
    You can also add in something like LMNT - chocolate flavor to add some additional flavor to the BBB's.

    Congrats on the weight loss!

    Yes, your body is literally being told by your billions of creatures inside your gut to eat more sugar. This means you haven't balanced your gut biome properly. Easy solution, though. Get some Kefir at the grocery or make your own. Drink a half cup of that per day before bed. Also check into getting some Gobiotix prebiotic fiber boost (they sell it on Amazon) it's a bit spendy but one container should last you a couple months. I suggest one scoop every other day, mix with whatever you want. Alternatively, check into fixing your gut however you like. This is just the way I did it. Also, eat those veggies and salad regularly!!!

    Good luck, you're doing great. [winkthumb]
