  1. Counting cooking oil ?

    I recently began cooking with coconut oil, switched from olive oil. So my question is how do you count your cooking oil, how do you judge how much was absorbed into the food, primarily eggs in my case, or how much you ended up pouring down the drain ? I'm currently doing carb nite solution and...

  2. Coconut oil

    I went to the store tonight to make my first purchase of coconut oil. I saw a few different brands. Which one is preferred ? The LouAna was definitely the cheapest but didn't say anything about being refined, how it is processed or anything, just said pure coconut oil. Most of the other types...

  3. Best source/place to get MCT oil

    I've been using EVOO for everything. I would like to start using MCT oil. Are there different kinds, better quality/lesser quality ? Can I buy it at Walmart/local grocery store ? Can you cook with it or just drizzle some over foods ?

  4. Diet help for carb nite solution

    I think I've been backtracking the last few days. In an attempt to get my calories up, I'd been slacking for a few days down in the 1500 range mostly due to only having protein(meat/eggs) at my disposal until i went shopping and added cheese, butter and heavy whipping cream to the mix. I started...

  5. The day after carb day

    Ok, so yesterday was carb day, and I gotta say after a week with <30g/day, it was like a drug, lol. Anyways, I was wondering if when I start over each cycle, should I do it with a zero carb day to kick start the keto again, or does it make a difference ?

  8. Calorie expenditure counters

    Does anyone have experience with the wearable type calorie trackers, i.e body bugs, etc. Are they worth the expense, are accurate enough to make them worthwhile ?

  9. Net Carbs ?

    I recently bought a pack of whole wheat tortillas. On the package, it has the term net carbs. After a little reading, it seems that "net carbs" is a marketing ploy. Ex, each tortilla has 32g of carbs, 26 of which are fiber. The idea, from what I understand, is that those 26g of fiber don't...

  10. Proper HIIT

    Admittedly, I have doing my cardio at low intensity, long duration pace. I have been informed in the error of my ways, lol. Anyways, I was on the eliptical tonight and attempted some HIIT. The first minute was at a moderate/slow pace(about 130 HR) then the second minute I went as fast as I could...

  11. Dairy..ok or not ?

    My current goal is body fat loss, I'm at 36% currently. I don't want to lose any muscle in the process though. I lift moderately heavy 3-4 days/week and I just started HIIT cardio.

    Ok, so I've been working out for about 3 weeks now. Tired of being fat, I'm at 36%BF. I wanted to make sure I could keep up the working out for more than a week before any supplements.
