Any suggestions? And is there such a thing as low carb milk, or is that just cream?

that's just cream

best I've found is this



they have a few other flavours as well, Tim Noakes probably wouldn't be too happy

 

[ScottulusMaximus]

Dinner 6 pieces of chicken legs
Mayo
Sweet chilli sauce
Coffee
Milk
Sugar

HFLC fail... Me:- roasted lamb chops in olive oil, cauli mash, toasted almonds and mixed veg with butter... I win

It's got sweetners in it, isn't allowed as still spikes insulin and I hate the taste of any sweetners.

According to Dr Attia, sweeteners are fine:

While an excess of alcohol sugars can cause gastrointestinal distress (e.g., if you overdo it on these you can get diarrhea), in most people they do not cause secretion of insulin from the pancreas due to their distinct chemical structure (see figure of their structures, above).

Yeah losing 8.5kg in under 3 weeks was such a fail so far.
PS low carb diets can range from 20 gr to 100 gr a day.

At the end of the day it's what works for one.

PS I haven't had a drink in weeks

Dinner tonight: Fillet steak pan fried in copious amounts of butter with veggies in a cream cheese, butter and cheddar sauce.

Hmmm interesting, I'll read up on that. Still can't stand the taste and need to find something else to drink.

Oh you weren't being humorous you were being a dick, noted... I agree hence stating I don't know what your aim is. Good for you on the no drinking however I'm not giving up anything I derive pleasure from unless I really have to, food is food I don't care what I eat but until they come up with a carb free beer then that's my cheat.

I was being a dick? Whatever I was just sharing what I do.

Those woolies waters really aren't bad, the only one that I can't stand is the apple flavor which really had that sweetener after taste

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

I fail to see Lino being a dick ....... how about don't enter a thread and call people dicks for sharing what they are having and what is working for them?

Idiot.

 

[OMB]

I think people should have a teaspoon of sugar and just chill

The idea behind the thread is to support each other in losing weight irrespective of how people achieve it.

Not everyone chooses to follow LCHF to the T and some people aren't even following an LCHF approach.

If you wish to guide someone with some facts and science then great, but let's keep it civil.

 

[googoodoll]

Ok daddy!

But its true though, not everyone follows the same approach and different things work for different people. And some are after super low body fat, others are looking to just fit into their old clothes or to have a bit more energy. My mom and I are eating the exact same foods and she is struggling with her tummy while mine is perfect So obviously something isn't working for her. She is maintaining a weight which she is happy with, but her body obviously isn't happy.

 

[systemofpurplelimpminion]

@Gifs, your nickname where does it come from? Used to know a gent in res with them same nickname. Not very common, so just wondering

When I really need something else I hit a glass of sprite zero. It has no weird aftertaste (I cant do sweetners either) and Attia says its fine so I trust him.

Did anyone have problems losing weight initially when banting?
Reason I ask is my mother in law started on Monday and she has lost half a kilo where I have lost 4 and I have been doing it one day longer than her.
Could it be that she isnt getting enough fats? or does she need to wait until she gets into ketosis before she really starts seeing any numbers?

Keto didn't work for me. I lost a kg in the first week and nothing else for the next six weeks. I don't think it will work for every female. I had more success with Paleo.

she needs to give it time, everyone is unique and there are so many different influencing factors

I have to keep reminding some people that fat loss is a marathon, not a 100m dash
