Anyone drinking Ketones?



Recommended Posts

If your following low carb why are you drinking ketones?

Drinking ketones does nothing but make your pee test positive for ketosis. But if you ate a turn of carbs then drank it sure your pee will show ketosis. But that's because you've just drank ketones. Your not in real fat burning mode ketosis. All you've done is trick your pee to test positive but its not doing anything for your weight loss. And your getting back in real ketosis in the same amount of time.

Why not just trust your plan without drinking that? You don't need any extra drinks to help you succeed. You've have your procedure.

This drinking keotones fad is one of the worst things I have seen in a long time. It is just marketing and junk science.

Just eat right. You don't need to drink keotones. Don't let people rip you off.

Low carbing is all you need if that is your method of losing weight.

How do people get sucked back into fad diets after going through such a big procedure? You do not even have to do even a 2 second research to come up with the fact drinking ketones is a load of crap. So what research is people doing honestly? I am not trying to be harsh to the OP but just curious.

Not bashing OP but just in general

@dreamingsmall

People that treat WLS like another diet, keeping falling into the same pitfalls. If WLS is a complete lifestyle change for someone, this doesn't seem to happen as often.

People who regain get desperate. There is a lot of pressure to maintain weight loss, and when people regain they feel a lot of pressure. Especially people that decide to be WLS poster children.

Science education in America sucks. I do not see as many people in foreign countries with such poor understanding of science and nutrition. Like the 2 guys that tried to debate me on how much a pound of muscle weighs. :lol::lol:

I saw that thread, I left pretty quickly it was getting silly. I am wondering if OP is selling this product as she has just returned to this forum and her only 3 posts is mentioning drinking ketones, I get when someones excited about something new.. But not that excited lol.

Wow you ladies are harsh. To assume is to assume wrong. No I'm not selling the product but I'm seeing great results so no need to lash out at those who are. I'm down 25lbs in 2.5 months and feel great, which I think is pretty awesome. I'm 10 years post op and post 2 babies back to back with a total unfill from csection swelling. I by no means have gained all my weight back but like many gained with having children and needed a refocus hence my return. Perhaps you will understand 10 years post op. I was curious if there was anyone interested in what I'm interested in, you know a community.

Non ones harsh. The ketone drink isn't causing the weight loss the low carb Is the drink does nothing you can't argue with fact that all the drink is make your pee positive. It doesn't make you go into ketosis after eating carbs lol it just says your pee is positive. But you are not in real fat burning ketosis. What is harsh about the facts? If you want to drink for nothing go ahead. But I did ask if your low carb why do you need the drink? The drink doesn't cause weight loss the low carb diet did. I didn't assume I said I'm wondering if you sell the product. What was the assumption there. Your lucky you gotba response stating the facts. Most people know its its rubbish but decided not to respond. We tried to help and got called harsh. I can see why others didn't bother.

Who's lashing out lol ? Why would we lash out ? All ketone drinks do is make wee positive. Nothing else contributing to weight loss. If you drink it without changing your eating habits you wont lose weight. Just carry on doing low carb.

Its a dangerous slidy slope trying all these drinks to get on track.

You came here to refocuse and even though I'm in the hospital in trying to help you. So dont be rude just because we be rude because we are being honest that if you did two seconds of research you'd see what your drinking is rubbish.

Protein first. And leafy non starchy veggies will have you losing weight faster.

I know you had a band. But for a sleep. I eat 4 ounces at a time.

People try to help you and you acuse them of lashint out because you lost weight lol ? Makes non sense at all we are all losing weight.

This is my last response as I'm exhausted on a lot of meds and won't be insulted for trying to tell you that weight loss was done by you not that use less drink.

So actually, "Nahmy" (Normy the cheers guy as said by Cliff Claven), aside from using ketones after WLS--it's a little known fact that some of the cutting edge research being done on cancer and dietary intervention today is in the area of the application of a ketogenic diet and supplementation with external sources of ketones. Turns out it may not be "full of gump" or hocus pocus. :) ;) This researcher, Dr. Dominic D'Agostino is the one of the shiznits in the keto/low carb community.

What supplement are you using? To do it properly you need to have a combination of BHB salts and MCT (medium-chain triglyceride). This is why a lot of people who are doing a ketogenci coffee drink bulletproof coffee. Look up Dominic D'Agostino, he is the ketosis guru and many of the supplements on the market are actually his.

There are dickholes on this app now. Life is life and sometimes it plain sucks. Everybody tries to survive differently. Not a big fan now that all these assholes are in here acting like they havent touched a Kit Kat or a potato chip or God forbid ate something that contained sugar....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
