Hardly losing any weight!
Hi, where's all that weight loss people talk about? I've been on keto (checked with strips) for 6 days, feel terrible from the keto flu, and have lost less than a pound. My calorie intake is around 1600 and I do 1 hour of Pilates twice a week. I'm following the calculator and I don't get the exact numbers but pretty close (e.g. 100 or 115 / 109 grams of protein or 115/122 of fat). I changed my plan to ketosis to cut down the carbs even more (was in 35 net and dropped to 25 because I never really reached 35 anyway). Help! What am I doing wrong? I'm getting discouraged 馃槩

It is really more about percentages based on individual calories, as below. Percentages here of your total calories which for everone will be different so that each persons individual gram of each macro will be different. For example one person might be allowed 93 g protien while another 103 g protien because the second person's calorie intake is higher. Does that make sense? So follow the percentages below of your total calories and you should loose weight. If you are still hungry, shoot for the higher end of fat and lower end of protien. Fat keeps you feeling fuller longer.

alegarza7 you will start to see faster results 3-4 months in. For 1500 cal that very well be too much of a defiency for you with doing Pilates, cardio, and running around after kids. Lol. But wait the three mark or more and try on smaller cloths you could hardly fit into. Put away scale for awhile. I only lost about 11 but feels like more because these jeans I couldn't get past my lower thigh now can go over by derri猫re.

I tried Niacin and I had a huge flush of weirdness - thought I was having an allergic reaction. I am preheart disease and thought this would be good for my cholesterol, so I need to find non flush Niacin. I do think there is some niacin in some of my suppliments. I make sure to take them with food as most are fat soluable
This seems like a lot, but I'm feeling normal, two days after I started these. I felt good again. I purchased the largest vitamin weekly grid to put all these in.

Terrafarm1 take psyllium husk caps at night. Maybe 1 during day with water. 2 at night. I'm sedentary, but still weight falling off. They are not an issue. I do skip some doses once in a great while. My mental clarity of fully back now. I'm not going to take the last 15 or so pounds off real quickly. If I did regular light excersise, possibly. The last 20 is the hardest. I'm down 2-3 pant sizes.
