I got a ketonix breath acetone meter and I’m wanting a way to track stuff. I also have arriving shortly a blood glucose/ketone tester (with the way overpriced test strips) and I wanted a way to track blood ketone levels and breath acetone levels. After looking for tools that do this that aren’t just an excel spreadsheet […]

I read Gary Taubs’ earlier book Good Calories Bad Calories a few weeks ago, I followed it up with his newer book Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It. While it doesn’t have the same breadth of information as Good Calories it’s more clearly delivered and easier for non-technical-medial people to understand. […]

Dunno why I’m even bothering to announce this, people are already ordering it. One of the issues I’ve had with the subscriptions is there wasn’t a way to allow different flavors in the same subscription order. You could do 2, 3 or 4+ if you wanted but you couldn’t have Chocolate, Banana, Mint and Strawberry […]

You can read the full thing here: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/opinion/columnists/article4449967.ece?shareToken=7dba4f3ccd918bfcc1a900e04c14f6bb Quick quote: Indeed, the evidence that insisting on low-fat diets caused people to eat more carbohydrates, and that led to the explosion in obesity and diabetes, looks pretty strong — so far. After all, the main route by which the body lays down fat is to manufacture […]

I’m going to be spending time with the family starting June 27 and ending July 13. During this time I’m not going to be shipping out any orders. However, I will ship out any that came in as soon as I’m available. I expect there’s going to be a backlog, especially of weekly subscription orders […]

I often get questions about if I can provide multiple flavors in one week. I can, but I would need smaller bags. The way I used to mix this simply wasn’t a possibility since I would measure out each week individually and dump the mixture into a bag. My response has been “if you can […]

It’s too bad they forgot to mention that refined carbohydrates are essentially just sugar as well but hey, it’s progress. You can get more info at Diabetes-Warrior. Quick quote from that link: 1) Supporting the DGAC [Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee] in its decision to drop dietary cholesterol from the nutrients of concern list and recommending […]

I’m finally finishing up Good Calories, Bad Calories: Fats, Carbs, and the Controversial Science of Diet and Healthby Gary Taubes. He wrote another book “Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It” that apparently covers much of the same info but is simpler and easier to take in, I’m going to read it […]

Really excellent presentation about his own N=1 experiment with Ketosis. Gives quite a bit of info but doesn’t overwhelm with details. Same guy from TEDMED Share

Just saw this, had to share. It comes with excellent sources and references to valid studies: https://mariamindbodyhealth.com/8-common-misconceptions-about-ketogenic-diets/ Share

I don’t always only drink Keto Chow – sometimes when we go camping I’ll make low-carb food for the whole family. Not pictured are the eggs covered in melted pepper jack cheese I made after I finished the bacon. Share

Last night I watched this really great presentation. She sums a lot of the concepts surrounding Keto very well. I didn’t ever get “The Diabetus” but I was heading down that path and I’m absolutely insulin resistant, probably worse. Share

Yesterday I got back my new blood tests. Check out how my keto diet has affected my body. For comparison I have the same figures from: March 2014 after 2 months of People Chow when I weighed 247 January 2015 after 3 months of Keto when I weighed 226 (the full test results for that […]

Yesterday my super hot and awesome wife informed me that I was going to be doing P90 with her again starting this morning. I did it back in November 2013 with her (oddly enough, right before I started People Chow) and it’s not as bad as P90X: I’m interested to see what it does to me now […]

I decided it was time for a new progress picture because I put on my “Breakfast – It’s what’s for dinner” shirt. Anyhow, the before is from October 2014 less than a week after I started keto at 258.7 but I was already down to 255. This morning I weighed 209.2 so I’m half a […]

Apparently I drank too much water yesterday and my weight ticked up from 209.4 to 210.7 – wasn’t the direction I wanted to go for my 6 month keto anniversary. I was hoping to reach an even 50lbs lost but it was not to be (that would have been 207.8) and today I’m sitting at […]
