You put butter in your coffee @Baymule?
Good morning y'all. It's raining and it's slippery here.
Yeah, we are on the Keto diet, low carb and high fat. So a plop of butter in our coffee gives us a little more fat in our diet. I'll say this, we do not feel hungry or deprived on this diet. Sure, I would love to have a great big chewy brownie, but I need to drop "creep weight" you know, the pounds that creep up on you until you can't button your pants and wonder where the heck THAT came from! (brownies)

I followed Keto for a bit. It was hard for me because I am diabetic. I lost a good bit of weight and energy was through the roof. Im know on a Mediterranean diet lots of fish and chicken rarely lean beef.

We want to get to our desired weight and then eat more sensibly than we have been. If we have to "low carb" it from time to time, that's ok. Fish and chicken is ok, but I am a red meat eater. I love pork, lamb and beef. Fish is meh...… chicken is ok, better than fish. We raise our own chicken. How long did it take you to lose how much weight, if you don't mind me asking?

I lost 40 lbs the first 6 months of last year with no particular diet, have been able to keep it off, and on Dr's orders eat all the beef I want. Generally speaking, except fried, I avoid chicken whenever possible.
Both my cardio Dr and Diabetic nutritionist (I'm type2) told me "eat what you want within reason but Work It Off."

Frankly, I'd rather eat the butter plain than put it in coffee. If you want to add some fat, use heavy cream in the coffee. Need more fat? I guess you just need to drink more coffee.

WHY am I being stalked by ads for ICE CREAM CONES???????? :he:he:he
:lol:
