Re: New to keto and a little confused
You can go to settings and turn that off. If you’re satisfied and satiated don’t eat any more. Plus if you’re trying to lose weight, you don’t want to overeat.…

Re: Why is there a non-keto low carb category? It's full of keto
Same here, in maintenance and after initial pee strips ($6-7), didn’t buy anything else. I eat low carb, some days really low, some days higher. There is no such thing as keto foods anyway.…
