  • Awesome results from a Keto Chow user

    I got a great email from a Keto Chow user this afternoon, I asked permission to share it (since I’m always seeking confirmation). I’ve edited a few spelling errors but that’s it. TL;DR Male/28 5’7″, start weight 185, hit goal weight of 130. (I’m small framed/boned). I just wanted to thank you for this product,…

    11 months, DreamForce14 to DreamForce15

    11 months ago I attended DreamForce 2014. It was really good. It was also the “the straw that broke the camel’s back” in that the sheer amount of weight I gained during the conference convinced me to make some changes and start Keto. Attached to this post is the headshot taken last year during DreamForce…

  • Redux: What if blaming the obese is blaming the victims?

    I’ve posted this before but with the whole “Dear Fat People” video (if you don’t know, consider yourself lucky) I think it should be seen again:

  • Great NYTimes article by Gary Taubes

    Linky: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/30/opinion/diet-advice-that-ignores-hunger.html?_r=0 As described on Reddit: An excellent article highlighting the differences between fat and carb restricted diets, and the aftermath when people end them, and the effect that carbs have on increased hunger. Gary Taubes is the guy that wrote “Why we get fat and what to do about it” and “Good Calories, Bad Calories”…

  • Finished testing changes to Keto Chow recipe

    Finished testing changes to Keto Chow recipe

    Today marks beginning of an end: all of the Keto Chow I mix from here on out (and actually going back a few days) has the vitamins included in the mixture. No more emailing me because I forgot to put them in the bag. No more questions about if people can use vitamin Y instead of…

  • Awesome article over at Art Of Manliness: Everything You Know About Cholesterol Is Wrong

    This was published yesterday, it’s a really good read and does a great job distilling down how messed up the “Generally Accepted Dietary Wisdom” is on Cholesterol: http://www.artofmanliness.com/2015/08/25/everything-you-know-about-cholesterol-is-wrong/ Some of the things he wrote lead me to believe he’s at minimum aware of ketogenic diets and maybe even doing keto/paleo. There’s also an excellent section…

  • Couple of changes to the recipe for Keto Chow in testing

    I finally got around to grinding up the multi-vitamin into a powder and seeing if it affected the taste of Keto Chow – it doesn’t. As soon as I can switch over my production pipeline I’m going to start incorporating it into the mix. There will likely be a transition period for a few weeks…

  • Chocolate Peanut Butter Keto Chow now in stock

    Got the big bag last week and finally got to make some today. I have it in Weeks, Days and 1 meal samples. The problem I was having before is still there though.

  • Great interview with a doctor, she explains how low carb works in simple terms

    She’s been doing less than 20g/day of carbohydrates (Keto) for 13 years! She also does a very good comparison of her inability to tan and her tolerance for carbohydrates. Being pale and getting a sun burn doesn’t mean she doesn’t have enough will power – that’s just how her body is. From the video description:…

  • All multi-vitamins are not created equal

    …though I’m sure their mothers love them all very much. I get asked a lot about the vitamins I include in Keto Chow, specifically they’re the “Kirkland Signature Daily Multi” from Costco. Can you use a different multi-vitamin? maybe but you will likely have deficiencies in some areas and overages in others. The recipe for Keto Chow…
