  • About the Business Cards that come in orders

    About the Business Cards that come in orders

    Back in March we started including business cards in the packages we ship out. It was my Wife’s idea (I think, might have been Heather’s idea originally). There’s a discount code on the back but it only works once for each person, we continue sending them with each order so you’ll have a nice and…

  • Look, there’s an easier (cheaper) way

    Look, there’s an easier (cheaper) way

    So the newly FDA approved AspireAssist has been all over the news (even made the Colbert Show back in 2015). It’s a tube that is implanted into your stomach so you can suck out undigested food before it is absorbed. In other words: it’s a FDA approved form of surgically assisted bulimia, that’s the consensus over…

    Keto Chow 1.5 update – almost there; Finally missed reps on StrongLifts

    So first the good news: The roll out of Keto Chow 1.5 is nearly complete. Rather than list what is updated to 1.5, I’ll just list what isn’t: Weeks Chocolate Fudge Samples Banana and Butter Cream Toffee (as they’re discontinued but I still have some) Chocolate Mint Snickerdoodle Vanilla Cookies & Cream Days None. They’re…

  • 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…

  • Testing with acacia gum progressing well, thinking about starting lifting

    Testing with acacia gum progressing well, thinking about starting lifting

    So my test of Keto Chow with Acacia gum instead of Psyllium Husk powder seems to be going pretty well. Acacia gum doesn’t thicken like psyllium does so I’m having to use a thickening agent too, MOAR fiber I guess. It’s smoother that the psyllium, like really smooth with almost no texture at all except…

  • 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…

  • Day 088 – 100 days of Keto (Chow)

    Weight: 202.9 Blood ketones: 0.6 mmol/L Alright, so I made it to 46.4 hours without eating – let’s analyze how it went! Mood and how I felt. First off, my lack of sleep yesterday was the biggest detrimental factor in the experience. If that had not happened (thanks a lot brain!) I probably would have gone longer,…

  • Day 061 – 100 days of Keto (Chow)

    Day 061 – 100 days of Keto (Chow)

    Weight: 204.6 Blood ketones: 0.4 mmol/L Again with the running! I went to my dentist yesterday to see if the pain in my jaw was tooth related, got a panoramic x-ray and everything looks good. Based on my description and the way my jaw was closing, the dentist posits that I hurt the “disc” in my jaw…
