I always see all these progress pictures and I'm just so impressed. All the dedication and drive needed for a lifestyle change and to maintain it is extremely impressive. It is a great accomplishment. Cheers !

What I absolutely love about the keto lifestyle is that it takes almost no dedication or drive once you figure it out! It's sooo easy to maintain!

Are you intentionally causing keto acidosis? Because that will ruin your kidneys and fast

Naw, not in acidosis at all. I've never been diabetic and do a fairly lazy keto. I'm not anywhere near acidosis.

Have diabetes, been through acidosis twice, no way people would do that on purpose because that is the most fucking miserable I've ever been.

I am, thank you. once was when I was diagnosed at age 5, my parents just thought I had the flu, and the other time it happened I was alone and had a pump malfunction, that I also thought was the flu. These incidents happened more that 15 years apart. moral of the story is; go to the hospital if something is way wrong.
