Weight: 205.5 Blood ketones: 0.1 mmol/L Probably going to I.F. (Intermittent Fasting) until this afternoon, – we’ll see if I get hungry or not. The revised formulation of my custom vitamin mix is ordered. It was ordered with magnesium citrate instead of chloride to see if that removes the metallic aftertaste, hopefully it gets here soon! […]

In a recent thread on reddit I was directed over to an excellent journal article from 2004 “Metabolic Effects of the Very-Low-Carbohydrate Diets: Misunderstood ‘Villains’ of Human Metabolism.” It does a really great job explaining some of the actual science behind a ketogenic diet and debunks several myths including “you need 100g of carbohydrates a day […]

Weight: 205.4 Blood ketones: 0.4 mmol/L Weight: 206.4 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Still down from last week, last night there was asparagus and really good salad so I ate some. It’s funny: trying to do 100% keto chow what I consider “cheating” is still eating keto friendly food =). Last night I made 2 batches […]

Weight: 205.9 Blood ketones: 0.1 mmol/L Hey, only up 0.1 and still down like 3 from 2 days ago. I’ll consider that a win. Today I’m trying something new: powdered coconut oil in my Keto Chow. Cost wise it works out to be $0.89 per day compared to $0.59 for the same 301 calories. $0.30 isn’t […]

Weight: 205.8 Blood ketones: 0.1 mmol/L I did a good job at mostly only eating Keto Chow yesterday and so far today. My wife is making spaghetti squash  with chicken alfredo for dinner tonight, gotta stay strong =). Posting later today because it’s been so busy. I got the formulation revision sent off and approved, hopefully […]

Weight: 208.5 Blood ketones: 0.4 mmol/L Yesterday was interesting, I received in the mail the sample of the new vitamin/mineral mix. I made a 1 day batch, split it between 3 blender bottles. Put it in the fridge for 3 hours. When it finally came time to taste it I was disappointed to get a […]

Weight: 207.7 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Ran on the treadmill last night and I’m down 0.1 lbs today =) Today will be another weigh-in for the city weight loss competition. Dunno if I’ll be down this time. I’ve been meaning to get better product photos for a while since the old ones were pretty blurry when […]

Weight: 207.8 Blood ketones: <0.1 mmol/L I was reminded that I need to get running again – with the conference and crazy hours I had completely stopped. I’ll try to get that going again, should help. Water weight is going down again (or so it seems). The scale I was using to weigh out 300g of […]

For those that didn’t know: I’m working towards significantly scaling up my operation. Like full-on industrial manufacturing using a co-packer. Today I finally got pricing for a vitamin/mineral pre-mix. There are a bunch of reasons for this but to name a few: Everything in every room in my house has Keto Chow powder on it. […]

Weight: 206.2 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Weight: 208.2 Blood ketones: 0.0 mmol/L Weight: 209.9 Blood ketones: 0.3 mmol/L Dag Nabbit. I’m sure it’s just water weight but seriously? I’m up 3.7 lbs in 2 days? I’m going to double down on just Keto Chow. I don’t see any weird special occasions with food coming up […]

Over on Reddit there’s a post by /u/ANewAccountYetAgain detailing his experiences with nutritional ketosis. He did keto before, went from 330 to 253 lbs over 6 months but stopped when depression came back and over the next 3 years gained it all back and more. 5 months ago he started keto thanks to /r/100DaysofKeto and also tried DietBet (money […]

Weight: 205.0 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L 5 days straight with the scale going down, yay! Going to keep this going. I made eggs and sausage for the family for breakfast. I did eat 2 patties of sausage but now I’m drinking my Keto Chow. I am planning on having a rib-eye for lunch (see above) […]

Weight: 205.4 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L I was down again for the city weigh in yesterday, not much but still in the right direction. I did a great job of mostly eating just keto chow yesterday. I had 3 keto chows, a mini gouda cheese wheel, an egg with a slice a bacon at dinner […]

For the last 40 days I’ve been checking my blood ketone levels and at the same time checking my breath acetone levels using a Ketonix. I checked my blood levels using a Nova Max and horribly expensive test strips. Based on my blood levels I haven’t been deep in ketosis but I expected there to […]

Weight: 206.1 Blood ketones: 0.1 mmol/L I’m going to make a concerted effort to only consume Keto Chow again – when I did that at the beginning of the 100 days I was consistently losing weight. So let’s try that again. Aside from a probable valentine dinner with my wife, I don’t have any other scheduled […]

Weight: 207.0 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Back at work, back to normal. I have 3 bottles of chocolate Keto Chow lined up for today. I considered doing intermittent fasting but decided against it. I’m just going to be really good about not eating anything weird today. Share
