This week results of a study were posted showing that contestants from “The Biggest Loser” from several years ago had mostly regained all their lost weight. From the conclusions offered in the findings it would seem there is no way to lose weight. The subjects metabolisms slowed down so much that it was nearly impossible […]

My Dad made the news last night. Funny thing is I was in a bunch of the photos shown…. though you can’t see me. I’m hiding behind rocks holding lights =) Glorified light stand and pack mule I am. So I guess I made the news too =) I had the day off yesterday so I […]

FedEx brought the power rack this morning. We got it assembled, and ready for today’s workout. Now I just need to visit Cal-Ranch or Tractor Supply and get some horse stall mats for the floor. Share

I’ve been wanting to start lifting and StrongLifts 5×5 looked like a simple and effective way to get back into it. (Not to mention there is a seriously awesome app to keep track of it, it even has android wear integration!) I did lifting back in high school and some in college but that was […]

There is a survey for people who have tried products like Keto Chow. If you want to participate you can, though if you don’t, that’s cool too. At the end of the survey there’s a bunch of coupon codes for Keto Chow along with other powdered foods. If you’re interested, there’s some more info about […]

So my test of Keto Chow with Acacia gum instead of Psyllium Husk powder seems to be going pretty well. Acacia gum doesn’t thicken like psyllium does. So I’m having to use a thickening agent too, MOAR fiber I guess. It’s smoother that the psyllium, like really smooth with almost no texture at all except […]

Weight change for the 100 days: 209.9 lbs to 205.4 lbs. That’s not really stellar progress but compared to gaining I suppose I’ll take it. I also didn’t “cheat” once; meaning I didn’t ever deliberately eat foods containing sugar, starch or other carbohydrates – but that wasn’t a surprise, aside from “robins eggs” that are still […]

Weight: 208.0 Blood ketones: 0.1 mmol/L So I’m stuck in a up and down cycle – it’s entirely what I’ve been eating and has a simple explanation, despite that I’ve decided it serves as good experience. I’ll call it “gives me a better understanding of what others are going through” yeah – that’s it. I’ll […]

Weight: 206.6 Blood ketones: <0.1 mmol/L Weight: 205.5 Blood ketones: dunno Weight: 207.5 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Saturday was a busy day with loads of physical activity in the yard with the kids, followed by everyone but me getting a slurpee (had some diet rootbeer). Then we hit the park and played there until the rain came and sent us […]

Weight: 206.0 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Had an awesome time at the IFT Food Suppliers trade show yesterday. Met some great people and might have found some new suppliers for ingredients. It was funny to see some of the places I’m getting some of my current ingredients from too. I happened upon one supplier that […]

Weight: 204.8 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Yesterday I only did two keto chow shakes – we got a new waffle maker and my wife made keto waffles. We might as well go all-in on “breakfast for dinner.” So I cooked a bunch of bacon and sausage. Also yesterday I got some preliminary figures for the […]

Weight: 204.7 Blood ketones: 0.3 mmol/L I launched the new front page yesterday, overall the reactions are positive; should have done that a long time ago =). Yesterday I did 3 keto chows. It’s awfully convenient to have when you’re really busy and have to work through lunch. I got a letter from my health […]

Weight: 206.0 Blood ketones: 0.4 mmol/L More Vanilla for breakfast, lunch and dinner today, that’s all pretty unremarkable. The fun part for today is I just launched a new home page. Hopefully this should give people more information in a nicer format. Let me know what you think! Share

Weight: 205.7 Blood ketones: dunno Weight: 205.3 Blood ketones: 0.4 mmol/L Had a fun(ish) weekend – we did a lot of mixing and packaging on Thursday and Friday so we could go for a drive on Saturday. Our family gave up trying to drive up the snow and mud after seeing the snow getting worse and decided to […]

Check out a Keto Chow review done in the customer’s own words. Overall, I would probably give Keto Chow a 4 out of 5. The top flavors are fantastic, and I only give 5 out of 5 for things that really blow my mind. Chris commented that the “build a month” deals are cheaper, so […]

Weight: 204.6 Blood ketones: I’ll measure this evening After I was befuddled with the lower ketone levels in the morning, a nice redditor pointed me over to an article about the Dawn Phenomenon. That article was really cool and explained a lot, I also found a bunch of outer really interesting posts on that site. If you […]
