OK, I can do this… it’s the last day. I thought I was doing better with the Liquid Coconut Oil – until this morning. I was woken up at 2 and didn’t get back to sleep until 3:30 or so. I’m really happy that I installed a bidet in that bathroom. Why is this happening? I […]

Woke up with a dehydration headache today, some water and ibuprofen took care of that. My gut is feeling much better, just in time for me to royally mess things up! =) Today is my second-to-last day of doing the liquid coconut oil. That means I have fewer than 48 hours before I eat carbs […]

Based on the way I’ve been feeling the last few days I think I was “lucky” enough to have a run-in with the stomach flu at the same time I started the liquid coconut oil. Anyhow, I am feeling better today, likely in no small part from me doing the Savory Chicken Soup flavor of […]

Days 32, 10 days left! I fasted yesterday until about 4 pm, which turned out to be a bit of a bad idea. The Carrington Farms liquid coconut oil is WAY better for my GI compared to the Piping Rock as it has a lower percentage of MCTs, still, it’s not close to the same as consuming […]

Will all the hubub on Sunday I forgot to post anything, so this is a placeholder that I’m back-dating so the series numbering doesn’t get messed up =) Share

So yesterday was my first day doing Coconut Oil, the package of the one I was using said “93% MCTs” so I should have seen this coming. About 20 minutes after I drank my first one I felt a bit weird and dizzy… and ran to the bathroom. Second One a few hours later was […]

OK, turns out liquid coconut oil tastes pretty good. That’s a relief! So I’ll be using it as anticipated for this week. I got a blood test this morning to cap off the week of macadamia nut oil. Unlike previous weeks, there were few people there and no hint of civil unrest =) Last night […]

Huh, I’ve been doing this experiment for 4 weeks now. That’s funny, I hadn’t even realized that until I started this post and wrote down what day it was. It seems that the previous 4 week experiment I did was WAY harder to do, maybe because I wasn’t chewing gum or drinking diet soda. Last […]

I’m on my second-to-last day of macadamia nut oil. I need to mix up 3 meals worth for tomorrow and then it’s time for coconut oil! woohoo! The experiment is still going well, haven’t had any problems at all in the last while. My tooth still hurts from getting a crown, though not as bad […]

Spent most of the day working on packaging for Keto Chow 2.1. I also made a centralized page with details about 2.1 so I can have a single point of failure information about the changes and timeline. I’ll update that page as we go along. Let’s talk a little about packaging, because: why not? The […]

I recorded a podcast yesterday, won’t be out for a few weeks though. Today I’ve been working to get things lined up for Keto Chow 2.1 which is now even more imperative as Chocolate Peanut Butter and Cookies & Cream 2.0.2 are out of stock and won’t be resupplied until 2.1 comes out. Share

Sad day – we have run out of the 21 meal “week” size of many of the flavors recently. That means it’s time for me to do a post to handle the “when is it coming back?!” questions – I get it, chocolate peanut butter is fantastic =) We do still have most of them […]

This is a few hours late so I’ll backdate it =) No video from today, I actually recorded a podcast today with Steve Swanson of FanPress. He says it’ll be posted in a few weeks, mine is episode #3 and he’s about to post #2. It was supposed to be 30 minutes but after 90 […]

Really quick update, not much to report other than that the Macadamia nut oil has a VERY strong flavor. Would not recommend using it to anyone but it’s what I’m doing and I have another 5 days of it. So goes life. Share

Day 22, past the half-way point! I started Macadamia Nut oil today. It REALLY adds a roasted macadamia nut flavor to the shake. The one I’m drinking now, the flavor is completely overpowered by the oil. I like macadamia nuts but I’m guessing that by the end of this week of doing the oil, I’m […]

Yesterday afternoon I went to San Francisco. I was running a little late, made it to the gate just in time for boarding (I actually ran a lot of the way with a big backpack and roll display)… and just as I got there, my phone buzzed to let me know that the plane was […]
