I feel great, acid reflux is rare rather than an everyday occurence. Hoping to get to the point I'm off BP meds.

Understand, that if you go back to a carb heavy diet you will gain it all back plus more.


So you are running 70% fat and 25% protein? How many calories are you taking in per day?


I usually average about 1400 give or take. Haven't been over 1900. I track everything with My Fitness Pal and come pretty close to 70/25/5 each day. Its easy to go way over on protein. But a cup of Bullet Proof Coffee will get the fat numbers up. I also keep MCT soft gels and coconut oil available.

Even cutting calories way back I do not have intense, I gotta eat right now, cravings.


"Cull" is just another four letter word...
