Help! I have this very annoying rash on my chest and neck that started a week after I started keto. It itches like crazy. My doctor wouldn’t see it and referred me to a pharmacist, who prescribed antihistamines and an itching cream (which don’t really help). I was wondering if anyone with experience knows if this is temporary (like keto flu) and I should wait it out? Or the only way to get rid of it is to stop this diet? Thank you for the help. submitted by /u/HighQualitystuff96 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

A little bit about how I've approached this, in case it helps someone. I am 37, male, 6'0" One MAJOR mindset change I adopted is that Food=Fuel and nothing else. I enjoyed food SO MUCH that I became vastly overweight. Now, I need to forego the 'pleasure' of a pleased tongue. I do not and will not have cheat days and I don't look for Keto deserts. For the same reason you don't buy an alcoholic a beer, I'll be damned if I'm going to tempt myself with failure with a vice that has wrecked my health. For the first 10 days, all I focused on was carbs and getting under 20g/day. No calorie count. No ..read more

I’ve been cooking my eggs and vegetables in bacon fat. I just found out about beef tallow, which lead me to wagyu beef tallow. Would this be a good tasty, healthy alternative? Has anyone used this before? submitted by /u/HighOnAmbien [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

You know all of us who love bread and make bread with coconut flour and all but it still tastes like egg? I tried everything to get rid of the flavour and I finally cracked it. After the usual recipe ingredients - ADD COTTAGE CHEESE AND TAHINI! Then sprinkle the bread with shredded cheddar. YOU WON’T KNOW THERE ARE EGGS IN IT. You can thank me later. Enjoy ?? submitted by /u/JigsawOnTheMaking [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

We're about to do a renovation in our house that will leave us without a kitchen for about a month. I'll have access to my freezer and microwave though, so I'm looking to pre-make some keto meals and freeze them. However, everything I eat tends not to involve much 'sauce' so I'm not sure how well things will freeze. Also, I'm vegetarian, which adds an extra challenge! Any suggestions for things I can pre-make and freeze? I'm thinking maybe coconut milk curries? Any other thoughts? submitted by /u/curious_kitten_1 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

In pursuit of lower lipid profile and metabolic health I went low carb. Plenty of protein but not high fat. I got into ketosis doing that. I’m now wondering if being in ketosis by virtue of low carb raises lipids. Or does the lipids go up becuse low carb diets often have high fat intake. In my case I wasn’t tracking macros but was low sat fat and lower carb. The rest I didn’t really pay attention to but followed whole foods with fish and chicken. submitted by /u/whoahtherebud [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Sometimes my cauliflower rice doesn't turn into what I want it to be. I hadn't had Tabasco in a a couple of years and I just now poured it on... Close to inappropriate sounds when I tasted it. What are your favorites? submitted by /u/UNeed2CalmDownn [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
