11 months ago I attended DreamForce 2014. It was really good. It was also the “the straw that broke the camel’s back.” 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 next to […]

At a training, all the is to eat is pastries and fruit. I guess I could eat the butter but that’s a bit excessive. Luckily I brought along keto chow (I planned on this happening and didn’t want to go into carb coma during class), unluckily I apparently did not securely close the little spout. […]

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: Share

Since my wife switched from “Whole30” to keto I’ve been burning through blender bottles much quicker. We finished the last round this morning. So I mixed up some chocolate fudge using all of the blender bottles that weren’t in the dishwasher. Took about 20 minutes, ended up with 10 of them. That won’t even last […]

This article does a great job distilling down how messed up the “Generally Accepted Dietary Wisdom” is on Cholesterol. 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 “Beyond Good […]

I decided to take a video of mixing up a batch of Chocolate Peanut Butter Keto Chow. The mixing device was sparkling clean before I dumped the powder into it; that powder is messy stuff man. For this video I let off the cover that normally keeps the dust down a bit. I will sometimes […]

Same guy who did that excellent review of Keto Chow posted another (hilarious yet informative) write up about how he mixes up Keto Chow: https://www.insignificant.info/blog-native/2015/6/29/ketochow-prep-accessories It’s a good read, make sure you don’t miss the footnotes. Share

Every few days I check my web stats and see where people are coming from. Got a fun surprise today: https://www.insignificant.info/blog-native/2015/6/24/ketochow-diet Includes quite entertaining commentary (make sure you click the numbered notations, I missed them the first time, they’re really funny), along with a super official “Appendix” where he ranks the different flavors. Personally I think […]

For kicks last night I mixed up some Keto Chow in one of the smaller blender bottles that I got a loooong time ago. Turns out they work just fine for Keto Chow with the only “issue” that you end up with a noticeably thicker mixture, which isn’t really a bad thing. I’m going to […]

Yesterday marked 8 months doing ketogenic “soylent”, and the day before that was my 20 year High School reunion. At the reunion I kept getting “wow, you look exactly the same!” probably because the organizers made us name tags that had our Senior portraits on them. If I remember correctly I was about 200 when I […]

I got a ketonix breath acetone meter and I’m wanting a way to track stuff. I also have arriving shortly a blood glucose/ketone tester (with the way overpriced test strips) and I wanted a way to track blood ketone levels and breath acetone levels. After looking for tools that do this that aren’t just an excel spreadsheet […]

It’s too bad they forgot to mention that refined carbohydrates are essentially just sugar as well but hey, it’s progress. You can get more info at Diabetes-Warrior. Quick quote from that link: 1) Supporting the DGAC [Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee] in its decision to drop dietary cholesterol from the nutrients of concern list and recommending […]

I don’t always only drink Keto Chow – sometimes when we go camping I’ll make low-carb food for the whole family. Not pictured are the eggs covered in melted pepper jack cheese I made after I finished the bacon. Share

Yesterday my super hot and awesome wife informed me that I was going to be doing P90 with her again starting this morning. I did it back in November 2013 with her (oddly enough, right before I started People Chow) and it’s not as bad as P90X: I’m interested to see what it does to me now […]

I decided it was time for a new progress picture because I put on my “Breakfast – It’s what’s for dinner” shirt. Anyhow, the before is from October 2014 less than a week after I started keto at 258.7 but I was already down to 255. This morning I weighed 209.2 so I’m half a […]

I was pretty surprised a few days ago to discover I had gone from a XXL size shirt to a L and from 38 pants to 34. Yesterday I gutted my closet, boxed up everything that was larger than size Large and donated it to charity. Last night I used up most of what I […]
