Hey, got a new theme going on the site. I also added the ability to pay with your credit card. I installed the new theme to try to figure out what the deal was with product reviews not showing up correctly but I decided to keep it. I added “CreditCard” as a payment option, using […]

Trace amounts of ketones are showing up now and everything is returned to normal (thankfully). It also seems that keeping up on electrolytes spared me the Keto Flu this time, which is AWESOME! I still am anxious for my weight trend to head down steadily, that should be this week. I didn’t loose nearly as […]

warning: TMI – Last time I started ketosis (back in October) I bucked the normal trend of getting constipated when starting and went the opposite way. Well, It’s happening again, lucky me. I’m not sure if it has to do with gut fauna dying off (not likely since I only are carbs for 6 days) […]

As previously noted, I started a local weight loss contest yesterday that compares percentage of weight lost as opposed to total pounds. I successfully replenished my glycogen reserves by eating carbs for a few days and gained a fair amount of water weight. So that craziness is over. Now I’m back doing a ketogenic diet which […]

Within the next day or two there will be some major changes here on this site, so don’t be surprised when they come (it’s all good).

On Wednesday, I have my initial weigh in for a local weight loss contest. It’s based on % of body weight lost. In the past the winners have lost anywhere from 15 to 21%. I figure that no one else doing it is going to be starting out without glycogen in their system so I’ve […]

Got an order today, there’s a box where people can add a note. This was in the box: $ ./configure $ make $ make keto My first thought was: I had a good laugh.

One of the best things about Keto Chow is that you can customize the amount of calories in your keto meal replacement. On the Keto Chow page I have this: This recipe has the added benefit of being customizable for people with different caloric requirements. Without any oil or cream it’s right around 500 calories/day […]

The flavored protein I’m using for Keto Chow comes in more than the 3 flavors I’m going to keep stocked. So I added an option to special order any of the other available flavors. It does cost $15 more than the chocolate mint, strawberry or vanilla since I have to get a tub of that […]

A question came up about how well powdered cream could be used for Keto Chow instead of the liquid heavy cream. Let’s take a look. The Amazon Page doesn’t show any nutrition information and I couldn’t get a response from the manufacturer… so logically I bought some. Here’s the nutrition information. Pay attention to the […]

A coworker asked me a while ago about all the stuff I’m using, so here are the apps, monitors and other things I’m using to track stuff about my health. Activity Monitor I grabbed a used Fitbit Flex off eBay about a month ago to see if I would like it better than the Jawbone […]

On January 13th, 2014 I mixed up my first batch of People Chow 2.3.0. Then I started mixing soylent and keto foods. People Chow 2.3 wasn’t very good. It had a lot of almond meal in it that gave me heartburn and specified a particular brand of corn flour that was exceptionally difficult to find […]

Just for fun I decided to see what making Keto Chow into a solid would be like. Presenting: Keto Chow cookies. I did People Chow cookies several months ago so I thought I’d try that form. I just put a meal’s worth of powder into a bowl, added the oil and the heavy cream and […]

I just got back my blood tests and they look good (at least as far as I can tell =). The last time I had it all tested like that was March 2014 after 3 months of People Chow. So here’s how they stack up to each other: Name 1/6/2015 3/20/2014 target Sodium 141 142 […]

Here you go:

Last night I mixed up 3 meals of vanilla flavored Keto Chow, it’s really good. My wife tried some and said “mmm, that’s good!” Later she asked about the possibility of me mixing her up a few blender bottles for her to have on hand for meals. I’ve decided that after the most recent changes to […]
