Nuts are so damn high in calories... it's going to make losing weight an uphill battle. Nuts are a big no-no. Great for fat, great for protein, great for bulking. For weight-loss they need to be gone,

I will occasionally have a salad, or an apple, or a side veggie. I try to make sure it is still food that nature provides, and not manufactured stuff that man makes. I still will avoid sugars and grai
Hello everyone.
I am 54 and have been diagnosed with Diabetes Type 2 in 2018.
When I got diagnosed, I refused the treatment they suggested (2 pills and eating mostly carbohydrates). Instead I did a Keto Diet and 6 months later all my bloodwork came out normal. After those 6 months, I slacked off Keto because I was tired of always being either constipated or having diareah.
Fast forward to 2024 and I am almost eating a standard american diet. Funny how things go when you stop paying attention. I was trying to stay away from bread, rice, potatoes and so on as much as possible but I was eating pasta often and a lot of deserts.
So this year I decided to go back on a strict diet. My current weight is 213 lb. I have been on Ketovore for 2 weeks now. My diet consist of: Rib eye steak, ground beef, eggs, bacon, saussage, a bit of chedar, brie cheeze, almonds, peanuts. I intend to eat salmon steaks and cod as well but have not purchased any so far. I used to drink mostly caffeine free diet pepsi. I have switched to sping water with a dash of artificail sugar flavors. Most days I eat OMAD. Sometimes I also add a snack with peanuts or almonds. I have also started going back to the gym because I am out of shape.
Also I am supplementing magnesium, calcium, zinc, vitamins A, B, C, and D. Those are what diabetics are usually deficient in.
So in the last 2 weeks, I have been eating a very strict diet. My meal is 1 lb of meat on average. I have lost no weight at all, I am still 213 lb like I was 2 weeks ago. I don't understand why the weight is not coming off while I am doing intermitent fasting for 23 hours a day and am eating very little. If you have any ideas or insights I am very curious how to resolve this issue. My goal is to drop to 175 lb in the short time and then over time get down to 150 lb.
