man bulletproof coffee is da bomb..i cant use heavy whipping cream(whid=ch i love) it throws me off ketosis..but i have a blender and as soon as i make my strong coffe..i pour it in the blender..add some mct oil a little bit of ghee(which is clarified butter )and pulse it about three times..man it works..i get up at 3:30 am and its like im on speed!..(whatever that is..lol)

That is true, but not sure what that has to do with my post? Vodka does not have any carbs.

wwell ok!

only lost 1 pound again last week. not sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm eating no carbs, may not be getting enough fat? I'm barely in Ketosis

will any medicines mess with this diet? My blood pressure has dropped, I get dizzy when I stand up, malnutrition?

I'm putting 1 tablespoon of MCT in my first cup of coffee, with heavy cream. Got some almond butter and some LILY'S dark chocolate sweetened with Stevia, I sprinkle on the almond butter and eat with macadamia nuts for a s"dessert" treat. Not too much though.

I usually am not hungry till around 4:00, tonight smoked salmon with fresh mozzarella

Happy birthday

Are you on blood pressure meds? If so you might have to reduce your meds. I got completely off of my BP meds. Not enough fat won't knock you out of keto, but if you don't get enough you will be tired and weak.

Happy birthday Buzzsaw. Good for you staying with trying to improve your health.

These are my observations of my wife's successful use of this type diet plan.

You don't mention breakfast or lunch. If you're not eating enough your body will
not respond well. Eat some bacon and/or sausage dang it! Eggs are good, especially
when cooked in a bunch of butter. Butter is wonderful and should be eaten at every
opportunity. Don't skip lunch! Have a bunch of burger patties pre-made in the fridge
and eat with an avacodo or some leftover salmon or go pick up your favorite burger
and just eat the meat and fixins, ask for extra pickles. A good dinner option is chicken
rotisserie or roasted. Get thighs and be sure to eat the skin. Besides being the tastiest
part of any bird it's where the most fat is. The breast is too lean.
If you aren't drinking a gallon of water a day you will not get maximum benefits.
Also from reading here I think you're putting too much effort in to trying to find
alternative sweets and quick fix iingredients. If you want this to work then a true
lifestyle change is in order. Eat a lot of the good foods and forget about the bad.

Again, this is observed of my wife who has been very successful. I've used a less
stringent diet, most significant thing being cutting out candy, sweet drinks and
dessert type foods. Also cut way back on carbs and starches. Even this has
my weight down nearly 10% since the 1st of the year.

As usual my reply is probably TLTR. I just believe eating good is not difficult.
Deciding to change your lifestyle is the bear.

I only eat twice a day, eight hours apart.

Buzz, some random thoughts...

Since you have had Gastric Bypass surgery like me, nutrients are going to go thru you quicker. I had to start cutting my meals in half and eat every two hours. I get too many "ups and downs" if I don't.

Also I have to drink more liquid. I make it a point to drink 8 ounces of liquid every hour on the hour.

Check your blood pressure many times during the day to get a track record. May need to get meds changed. Also get your potassium levels checked. Mine were way off and caused a lot of light-headedness and lethargy.

Some odd things will sometimes keep you out of ketosis. With me it was diet soda. You may have to experiment a little.
