Weight: 202.9 Blood ketones: 0.6 mmol/L Alright, so I made it to 46.4 hours without eating – let’s analyze how it went! Mood and how I felt. First off, my lack of sleep yesterday was the biggest detrimental factor in the experience. If that had not happened (thanks a lot brain!) I probably would have gone longer, […]

Weight: 203.6 Blood ketones: 1.1 mmol/L Looks like I had inexplicably stored up a bunch of glycogen – the difference between yesterday morning (~8 hours fasting while sleeping). This morning (~32 hours fasting) is dramatic: 4.2 lbs down and 0.9mmol/L of ketones higher. That’s a lot of water weight! I’m still trying to decide what I’m going […]

Weight: 207.8 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Today I’m doing intermittent fasting, but for kicks I’m going to see how long I can go without eating and just running off the copious stored energy I have. I’m planning on possibly eating tomorrow, not sure though. Going off my DEXA scan I have approximately 220,000 calories stored, and going […]

Weight: 206.3 Blood ketones: 0.3 mmol/L Weight: 208.2 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Got the floor/platform for the new shed built on Saturday, even got some of the shed put together before it got too dark. I was going to finish building the shed today, but it’s snowing. Bah. Guess I’ll do something else, like see Zootopia […]

Weight: 205.7 Blood ketones: <0.1 mmol/L Weight: 207.4 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Didn’t have a chance to post yesterday because I spent most of the day going to the landfill 3 times with the remnants of our shed, then we went to dinner. It was actually a really nice dinner, especially since 4 1/2 of […]

Weight: 207.1 Blood ketones: <0.1 mmol/L Despite doing pretty well yesterday, I was still up in weight for the weekly weigh in for my city thing. I think it may have to do with eating the cheese and meat off pizza yesterday. I guess today is a new day and so far today I’m doing perfect. I’m […]

Weight: 206.1 Blood ketones: 0.3 mmol/L 3 Rich Chocolates yesterday, 3 Chocolate Peanut Butters today. Yesterday I got my web server happy again. I had it kinda working but the load balancer wasn’t handling the requests, the end result was it showed every connection coming from the same address (the load balancer) and that evening I […]

Weight: 205.3 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Yesterday evening I spent some time discussing the possible packaging for “Keto Chow 2.0” with my wife. The company I’ll likely be using can package into “Stick Pack” and tubs/bottles, they aren’t able to handle the stand-up pouches I’m currently using (“yet”) so it’s likely I’ll be using tubs for bulk size […]

Weight: 206.74 Blood ketones: 0.4 mmol/L Weight: 207.9 Blood ketones: 0.5 mmol/L Well, my ketones are up but I also had dinner with the family yesterday. (Dinner consisted of split chicken breasts with ham and swiss inside, wrapped in bacon and then dipped in eggs and Parmesan cheese.) That was enough salt for me to gain […]

Weight: 204.6 Blood ketones: <0.1 mmol/L Friends took us out to a really nice restaurant last night. Like “valet parking, the menu was in French and located in a cabin” fancy restaurant. After some extensive study of the menu before hand I ended up getting the “Bacon Wrapped Elk Strip Steak” which as  matter of course comes […]

Weight: 206.2 Blood ketones: <0.1 mmol/L We went to dinner last night at Texas Roadhouse, I got the pork chops, salad and broccoli. I should have been WELL under my net carbs for the day. But then I ate a couple peanuts, then some more, and more, and more. I think I ended up eating like […]

Weight: 205.1 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L 3 Rich chocolate Keto Chows yesterday, plus some asparagus covered in cream cheese, mmmm asparagus. I was putting in some details in Cron-O-Meter this morning (the aforementioned asparagus and keto Chow) and noticed there was a shortcut to add blood ketone readings. I was pretty surprised! Turns out they added a […]

Weight: 206.0 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L I did a new video showing how to mix up meals of Keto Chow: a single meal, two meals with ice in a blender and 6 meals in a gallon pitcher. Share

Weight: 205.6 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Had a great Pi day yesterday. I went and got a DEXA scan and a RMR test. Drank a couple Keto Chows for breakfast and lunch and made fathead pizza for the family for Pi day. Oddly the kids had no problem eating a low carb pizza with the crust made […]

I’ve been doing Nutritional Ketosis (aka: “keto”) for about a year and a half now. I started out at 258 back in late October 2014. I got down as far as 198 but came up some with Thanksgiving, Christmas and the like. For the last while I’ve been (mostly) doing 3 meals of Keto Chow […]

Weight: 205.9 Blood ketones: 0.3 mmol/L Weight: 204.3 Blood ketones: <0.1 mmol/L When I finally ate yesterday around 5:00 PM my ketone levels were only at 0.3 mmol/L, they should have been up there in the 1.0-1.5 range. Today they’re non-detectable? This is why I would NOT recommend people check their blood ketone levels every […]
