  • Why I make Keto Chow

    Why I make Keto Chow

    I want to help people change their lives… and help them not go nuts in the process. Nutritional Ketosis (aka “Keto” or “Ketogenic Diet”) can be highly effective but it’s daunting, especially for beginners. Keto is the only thing I have ever tried that has had any lasting effect on my health and my weight.…

  • The Biggest Loser Diet – Explained!

    The Biggest Loser Diet – Explained!

    This week results of a study were posted showing that contestants from “The Biggest Loser” from several years ago had mostly regained all their lost weight. From the conclusions offered in the findings it would seem there is no way to lose weight. The subjects metabolisms slowed down so much that it was nearly impossible…

    My Dad made the news last night. Funny thing is I was in a bunch of the photos shown…. though you can’t see me because I’m hiding behind rocks holding lights =) Glorified light stand and pack mule I am. So I guess I made the news too =) I had the day off yesterday so…

  • Day 100 – 100 days of Keto (Chow) retrospective plus a rant about skinny weight loss coaches

    Day 100 – 100 days of Keto (Chow) retrospective plus a rant about skinny weight loss coaches

    Weight change for the 100 days: 209.9 lbs to 205.4 lbs. That’s not really stellar progress but compared to gaining I suppose I’ll take it. I also didn’t “cheat” once; meaning I didn’t ever deliberately eat foods containing sugar, starch or other carbohydrates – but that wasn’t a surprise, aside from “robins eggs” that are still…

  • User experience: 100lbs lost doing keto in 5 months, 3 months of Keto Chow

    User experience: 100lbs lost doing keto in 5 months, 3 months of Keto Chow

    Over on Reddit there’s a post by /u/ANewAccountYetAgain detailing his experiences with nutritional ketosis. He did keto before, went from 330 to 253 lbs over 6 months but stopped when depression came back and over the next 3 years gained it all back and more. 5 months ago he started keto thanks to /r/100DaysofKeto and also tried DietBet (money…

  • So far, no correlation between breath acetone and blood ketones

    So far, no correlation between breath acetone and blood ketones

    For the last 40 days I’ve been checking my blood ketone levels (using a Nova Max and horribly expensive test strips) and at the same time checking my breath acetone levels using a Ketonix. Based on my blood levels I haven’t been deep in ketosis but I expected there to be some sort of correlation…

    Day 024 – 100 days of Keto (Chow)

    Weight: 208.0 Blood ketones: 0.2 mmol/L Weight is still coming down and I had time to run on the treadmill last night. Going to try to do that again today. Today marks the end of week 1 of my city’s weight loss program (“Mission: Slim Possible”) so I’ll be doing my first weigh in for…

  • Keto Chow in paradise

    Keto Chow in paradise

      My parents visited Hawaii and my dad sent me some info on his experience. Bright, sunny Hawaii is a radical departure from his recent photographic work (photos of nightscapes – check out http://intothenightphoto.blogspot.com/ in several of his shots I’m the guy turning on the light to paint the scenes). He seems to really like measuring out 50g into bags ahead…

    Day 012 – 100 days of Keto (Chow)

    Weight: 204.7 Blood ketones: >0.1 mmol/L The plan was to do Keto Chow for 3 meals a day for 100 days though I decided I wasn’t going to kill myself or stress about it. Yesterday evening we went out to dinner at a Chinese Buffet. There was a Mongolian grill so I was able to find plenty…
