Instead of sweet tea and beer, you will drink unsweet tea and vodka. But youll get healthy in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't do unsweet tea, I'd rather drink water. Guess instead of craft beers I'll be ordering Moscow Mules when I drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which I presume is also carb heavy. I dont drink that much anymore. But Keto drinking is basically any hard liquor that isnt flavord (IE - Jack Daniels is fine, Fireball is not) mixed with a 0 calorie soda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Splenda or any other artificial sweetener gives me headaches, so that's a no go. Same for 0 calorie sodas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOLY sheesh. was going to post about 2 friends, brother and sister who both have been overweight and always extremely lazy. Both have lost 30 and 40 lbs respectively already in about 2 months. Was going to start it myself. Now you mention it. Still, me plus my sugary snacks/liquor issues will make it hard. Freakin sweet tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freakin sweet tooth. I started the Keto diet on Tuesday of last week and dropped 13 pounds, not usual but I walk about 10 miles per day also. First week you lose a lot of water weight as well so if anyone does try it they need to drink a lot of water. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas_OutLaw7 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I've lost 40 on Keto since the start of the year. Had a few trips that have made me have a few cheat weekeneds - otherwise I'd probably be down close to 45-50. I miss beer. I miss rice. Everything else is easy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH I've been too busy to go and look it up. Its not really new. All of these "fads" are the same basic premise => stop eating carbs. The food pyramid that we grew up on is completely bunk and has led to a lot of overweight, diabetic, heart diseased Americans. There is a very basic premise if you want to lose weight without being a gym rat. If its made with sugar or flour, dont eat it more than rare occasions. Keto is specifically 25 grams of carbs a day. Paleo is 75 grams of carbs. Atkins is some number above that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
