Wasatch Mountain State Park is 40 min from my house and you didn't even stop to say hi! Wow... What a friend
Which elliptical did you buy?
we got a proform.
Down 12.6 lbs since the 4th.
Energy levels...this is one thing that people who don't do keto will never understand. Your energy levels go through the roof...you feel like you can really do anything. Your mood improves so much that the things that used to irritate the ever living crap out of you, no don't even phase you the slightest. There is actual science behind all of this. But seriously...I had people tell me that it was the fact that I was losing weight that made me feel good. Okay...sure...part if it was that...but man...those ketones that your liver makes and that your body uses (especially the brain) is like jet fuel for mind, body, and soul. ANd like I said...unless you have actually done keto...I mean really done keto...and for more than just a week or two...there is no way in hell others can no how you feel!
Keep it up Matt...it gets better believe it or not!
I'm waiting for the energy to kick in. I'm basically feeling not so great.

John, as we discussed, you have been on OMAD for a long time if I am understanding you, even before we started this, so you body has acclimatized to your daily routine. As I mentioned last night I would try an extended fast for 24 hrs to start , and if you are beyond that try 36 or 48 1st. Also make sure you are drinking enough water, even if you need to get some electrolytes ( NOT GATORADE too much sugar ). Either in supplemental form in a powder, pill, or even dill pickle juice. Also a hint to take two 8-ounces of water as soon as you get out of bed, and include at least a cap full of apple cider vinegar, and some before bed as well. Also you may look at BHB or exogenic ketones, this can be in powder or pill. There are electrolyte pills, and make sure your salt intake is good.
Also make sure that you are getting good supplements in the form of vitamins. It sound alot like an extended KETO flu here are some ideas you can ponder
he has a ton more as well on his Channel

How long have you been doing it John? It's going to be different for a lot of people.
If you are not feeling well, a couple things I recommend...
Drink water...make sure you get enough water. I am not saying that you need to drink two gallons of water a day...but just make an effort to get "enough."
Add some salt to the diet. People who go Keto (especially in the beginning) often don't add enough sodium in their diet. If you don't feel great throughout the day...add a pinch of salt to some water. Seriously...this helps a ton.
Some people have the Keto Flu for a couple of weeks...others just a couple of days. It seems to me that you keep teetering on the edge of it all and maybe are in and out of it frequently. The other thing you could do is a 24 hour fast to kind of help it along.
I really hope you get through this...because the feeling and benefits can be amazing!
You got yours in before mine.
It's nice to knw that both of us gave him pretty much the same advice. (Though I think yours was better overall!)
we are of one Mind....You got yours in before mine.
Everyone: All of a sudden - rethinking that weight loss program.

Spider (KJ):
so how much does he weigh? Remember you can deduct him from your weight, and I think he might be KETO
I think there’s nary a carb to be had in that wee web crawler. No doubt, CHOICE keto fair!
Where's the butter for dipping?
You’re right, I wager you may need some butter to grease the passage of those hairy legs.... No matter the fair, only the best will do!
Okay...what I thought was the beginning of a good turn in the right direction (downward) has pretty much stopped. I think I need to reevaluate what I am doing and fine tune some things. I may just go full on keto at this point until I lose more weight.
