Re: Does low glycemic carb eating cause sensitivity to high glycemic carbs?

Re: New to Keto

Re: Glucose/Keytone Monitoring
It really isn't needed to do any of this. My symptoms such as parched dry mouth keyed me in I was in ketosis.

Re: Low-carb, not Keto
Don't count calories. Eat until you're full. Go by how you feel. I don't count calories and I've dumped 33 lbs in 7 weeks. I need to lose 100 lbs more.

Re: Between Ketosis and Fat-Adapted
@Krazykatlady I don't think it ever ignores carbs as the body is geared toward self-preservation in starvation. That's why we continuously restrict carbs so the body doesn't revert itself.

Re: Milk
No added sugar doesn't mean doesn't naturally contain sugar. You can drink milk but limit its intake.

Re: No ketosis - getting frustrated
