Hi everyone,
I am new to this forum and finally worked out how to post
.
I recently started a keto eating plan and the first time round (start of the year) I had major gall bladder attacks and had to come off. I then did several gall/liver flushes to get rid of the stones, which they did go, and now I am back on keto.
The first time round I was really hard on the amount of calories I consumed and tried to stay under 1500 per day for my size according to keto calculator. I do admit, I was hungry at 1500 calories a day.
Now this second time round, I don't count calories but I also don't get hungry. The problem is, I have not lost any weight since starting (now 2 months) but have actually put on weight. Really disappointed with myself that I'm actually getting fatter which makes people around me say 'I told you so'
I really do like the idea of keto living but I guess I don't know what a realistic time frame is to lose weight. I hear people say that the fat just melts off them in weeks and others say they don't noticed any weight shift for at least 4 months. I don't know what to believe because all I am seeing with myself is noticeable weight gain. Can anyone help me with their own experience, I'm wondering if keto is too good to be true?
Thanks guys.
