WHOA yea i started on the "DIET" 3 weeks ago and on the 4th day i thought i would be in the "keto" but my stix said none

so i looked over what i was eating

bacon
egg whites
steak (plain)
chicken
pork rinds
tuna -lite mayo zero carb
salmon
diet coke
diet dr pepper
water
nothing else!!!
i just wanted to lose around 15lbs (at least 5 of fat)

i was keeping count of carbs---less 1 gram a day
" " " " " protein---200 grams
"" " " " " fat-----AROUND 190GRAMS
between 1500-2000cal a day
so since i wasnt in ketosis i thought that maybe i needed to add a little more fat to my diet so i did 1000mg of flax 4x a day

and by the seventh day i tried the ketostix again & guess what???? ketostix read trace!!!!!

i was kinda mad thinking maybe my sticks were bad (3 years old)and i do know what the purple looks like (read purple 3yrs ago) when i bought them---so off to the store ---well same reading!!!

what could it be?????? i've been in keto b4 with a more radical diet of just tuna & chicken & water

so now before i go radical for a 4-7days i'm gonna drop the diet drinks and sub water in place and on V-DAY i'll do a stick first thing to see if anything happens

but its just my 2 cents
I'M 6ft 224lbs

i'll follow up with a purple (i hope)

well well well


well i got up(5am) and tested my keto state to see if i made it and .............yep nice dark purple

but @ 6am i had 5 egg whites and sugar-free jello (1cup) i checked it again and bam just a trace

now just after lunch time i'm back in the deep purple
ate chicken for lunch and water

so for me it looks as if aspartame knocks me out of keto

will be the pig and test somemore

...Heres a sample of my days foods, I’ll list the totals at the end:
Breakfast: 4 Strips Bacon and 4 Scrambled eggs.
Lunch: Big Ole 12 Oz Steak and ½ Cup Green Beans. Mayo or Hot Sauce for the Steak(which is broiled)
Dinner: Chicken Wings (My GOD do I eat these ) They are fried in oil, skin on, usually about 15 wings. ½ Cup Green Beans, 2 Cups Salad.
Snacks: Pork Rinds and the occasional Atkins Bar.
Totals:
Fat: 192
Protein: 221
Carbs: 12
Calories: 2710 (+ 250 if I eat an Atkins Bar and 80 if I eat Pork Rinds (only 5 grams of fat out of those Pork Rinds)

This is what I don't like about Keto diets... it gives people an excuse to eat pure sh*t. I don't care how much weight you are losing... this is not healthy. Do you even know what kind of oil those wings are fried in? Or does it not matter to you as long at it adds to your daily fat total? It's bad enough that Americans overeat on sodas, pastries, candy, etc. Then the Atkins diet gets press all over the media and to compensate for the sugary foods people start mowing on Bacon and fried foods while severely limiting carbs... well what do ya know the weight just drops off! No sh*t it does! That doesn't mean it's good! I may believe in an "old fashioned" approach to weight control but everyday I think more and more that mine is the right choice. You know what I mean, high protein, moderate amounts of quality low GI carbs, low-moderate but healthy fats... and STAYING ACTIVE! NOT JUST LIFTING 3 TIMES/WK OR DOING INCLINE WALKING! I'm sure a lot of people on these boards in good shape understand there are things more important than just aesthetics; but with some I wonder. This is not an attack on anyone; but the typical "bulk then cut" yo-yo is not good IMO. What I mean is more along the lines of eating like a horse for 8 months of the year and then cutting up for summer... year in and year out. I can understand the BB who carries a bit of extra weight while progressively adding mass over a period of YEARS... but this is also at a more steady pace. Cycling year after year does not promote a healthy normal metabolism and only gives you excuses to omit your most important muscle during "bulking" months . Anyways I'm all over the place with this rant just wanted to express some of my opinions after a few years browsing these boards.
