Fairly new to IF.
Is anything measuring not absolute zero considered being ‘in ketosis’?
I do a lot of 20 hour fasts. My hands will get really cold (that’s how I can usually tell I have some increasing amount of ketones onboard) and when I have measured my blood glucose and blood ketone levels at that time, my BG trends downward and BK trends upward. My Keto-Mojo monitor will tell me that I’m NOT GKI ketosis until at 0.5mmol/L. However, I have read in multiple places online that any numerical value above absolute zero IS considered ketosis.
(I’m only concerned for reaching ketosis for weight loss. I’m not diabetic and am in generally excellent health. I’m still learning what foods help, hinder, etc. because I haven’t yet been consistent enough to track patterns for myself.)
Thoughts?

Our baby boy has just turned eight months old, but since month five his weight gain has been minimal - he’s gone from the 50th percentile to just below the 9th percentile for weight. As such he’s now seeing a dietician and we’re expecting a pediatrician appointment soon.
Conversely, his height has increased from just above the 9th, to just below the 50th.
He’s been described by a health worker as very alert and active, with good gross motor skills. As he’s crawling, pulling himself up to standing, picking out toys, etc. Overall he’s high energy and doesn’t stop moving/playing, he loves people and is always engaging with those around him.
He’s a formula baby and drinks on average around 600+ml (20.2+oz) a day with high-calorie formula mixed in, across five feeds, and his intake varies wildly from 2oz through to 7oz. This includes a sleepy feed at 11pm, and I’m considering another at 3am. It’s worth mentioning that around month four he developed bad bottle aversion, which we worked hard to overcome. So when he doesn’t want anymore we don’t force it on him.
To help get more calories in him we started to spoon feed him more, but he hates the fuss and then stopped eating anything (unless it was fruit puree!).
So we pivoted back to BLW. Now we sit as a family and give him his own plate, and he’ll happily grab his food and tries to eat. We’ve focused on foods with high calories and healthy fats, like avocado, cheese, chia seeds, beef, chicken yoghurt, butter, oils, etc.
However, although lots of food goes in his mouth not much gets eaten, but it’s a far more positive experience than spoon feeding. My hope is that in time he’ll get the hang of it and he’ll start to progressively eat more.
My gut feeling is that our baby boy is actively burning calories through playing and growing, and his food intake isn’t keeping up. It’s become very stressful and my wife and I constantly discuss food and what more we can do.
For those who’ve been through this, did you successfully manage to get their weight up, or did they settle into a lower weight curve? Does it all come good in the end? Thank!

I checked out Vishwa Bharat and some other fitness influencers. NRI bondha for context. Dollars lo chusukunna koncham pricy anipistundi. I have lost weight before in different ways before once by just dieting and just working out the second time.
However ever since I've started working I've lost my flow. I've lost my gains and gained weight mostly in the form of belly fat. Thanks to my crazy work schedule I'm not able to workout at a set time regularly and don't even ask about diet.

Our dog Clyde is 11 years old and has been more fatigued recently. We brought him to the vet and they did a “senior screen” labs and found he had hypothyroid and started him on thyroid replacement and he’s back to his usual self (still sleeps plenty, but more alert and playful again). However, there was an incidental finding of proteinuria. I work in medicine and I am wondering about reasonable next steps for this senior pup who is otherwise doing fine.
Specifies: dog Age: 11 Sex: neutered male Breed: terrier mix Body weight: 33lbs Medical history: - allergies/atopic dermatitis on apoquel for many, many years; in the past two years switched to Cytopoint injections q2-3 months - 9/2021, splenectomy d/t hematoma, benign
Recent hx: fatigued x1 month, no localized symptoms, low T4 and started thyroid med with improvement of symptoms
Proteinuria: Serum Labs: Cr 0.7, BUN 17, BUN/Cr ratio 24,
No CBC (except platelets 534 and mono 1400), renal, lft, CPK, amylase, Negative heartwom, borrelia bergdorferi, ehrlichia spp, and Anaplasma phagocytophilum
UA: specific gravity 1.051 (borderline high), Ph 7.5 (high), Protein 4+; UA otherwise bland (negative glucose, ketones, bacteria, casts; 1+ bili, WBC 0-1, RBC 2-3, struvite crystals 2-3).
Spot UPCR ratio 1.7, Protein 425 mg/dl, Cr 252 mg/dl
Vet is recommending telmisartan 15mg/day ($100/month) and low protein diet and follow labs ($200 for peUPCR) to monitor.
He is pretty healthy but 11 years old. How significant are these labs, is treatment with both meds and diet changes indicated? Especially with a normal serum Cr? What would you do if it was your pup?
*I can share any other specific labs if helpful

Could some kind person check and tell me size in mm and weight in grams of iPhone 13 mini with average or slim case and tempered glass? I am looking for small but protected smartphone, thank you!

There’s a lot of smart people on this sub that have the ability to put into words what I could not for most of my life. I’m fascinated reading the SCT symptoms that are in alignment with my own. Finding a cause (well.. cure actually) is what we’re all here for, and many great theories have been suggested. Based on my reading here I wanted to piece together what I’ve learned from others about what may be causing SCT.
Causes that I’ve seen mentioned here include:

• Gut health. From food intolerances to taking antibiotics for ear infections as children. There’s a huge number of possibilities here that affect brain chemistry and cognition. This also leads to..
• Inflammation/neuroinflammation. Many supplements and probiotics have been recommended here with mixed results. It does seem that no one supplement alone alleviates SCT for extended time or without major side effects.
• Deficiencies. There’s too many to list but Vitamin D, magnesium, B vitamins, zinc are mentioned regularly by posters here. Vitamin D interestingly has had discussions on results from direct sunlight as well as taking vitamin.
• Sleep. Sleep apnea and sleep studies have been discussed. Screen breaks, deviated septum, diet/weight loss are the normal causes it seems.
• Eye/ vision. Visual exercises have been discussed to have some positive benefits. Binocular vision/weak eye muscles has been mentioned.
• Posture. Tech neck discussed as reducing oxygen levels to the brain and causing sct “headache”.
• Cortisol and Thyroid levels . Discussed quite a bit here. Explanation for fatigue and other sct symptoms.
• Past childhood trauma. A bit hesitant to include this one because the posts don’t elaborate on SCT progress through therapy, medicine, etc. It’s more for possible common themes with others here.

Commonalities with other issues/disorders:

• ADHD inattentive type - talked about a lot and often the accepted medical diagnosis. Stimulants, straterra are common treatments.
• Dyslexia- has a broad meaning these days and many overlaps with SCT
• Auditory processing disorder. Similar to dyslexia, but specific to only auditory.
• Anxiety and depression. Some controversy on whether depression/anxiety is the cause or if it’s the other way around.
• Chronic fatigue syndrome- lack of energy/ motivation talked about often.
• Autism- common notion here is that SCT is NOT autism but seems to share many similarities.

If I missed anything major please let me know as I try to understand this thing and hope to make strides forward.

F, 24 yo, 97kg. To cut a long story short I lost 25lbs the past 3 months just on a 1300 calorie deficit & minimal exercise only used a resistance band once a day for 30 mins. I also eat once a day (balanced diet) and have a protein shake alongside, fasting around 18+ hours.
The past two, almost 3 weeks I have been going to the gym 3 times a week, this week 5 times but I don’t intend on more than 3 for the most part. I did this as I wanted to maintain my BMR and hopefully help the fat loss etc etc.
This is where I need help, tell me why the past 3 days especially, I have lost only muscle mass every single day and that’s with consistently going to the gym. (Strength training & also 15 mins cardio) i have also had my weight loss come to a complete halt…. This has been extremely disheartening as i genuinely thought going to the gym would help the process but it’s actually stopped it completely and made me constantly loose muscle.. yes my stamina is probably improving but my main goal is fat loss and nothing else right now.
Before anyone suggests more protein yes I am taking steps to try and increase it where I can to around 100g per day, but with my deficit I can’t do more than that, 100 is already a push. Protein still doesn’t answer why my fat loss has stopped since being more active.
I am almost convinced stopping the gym and just doing my deficit and resistance band workout/ slight increase in protein will be more effective than all this hard work I’m putting in right now. The motivation is rapidly declining . 🥲 Any advice is much appreciated!!

Hey All,
I (23M) 5’9 male, have been obese my whole life. In 2020 I decided to be healthier and I went from 250lbs (my highest) to 170lbs (my lowest). At the lowest my body had trimmed down significantly yet I still had love handles and a handful of lower belly fat. The issue is how I did this. I was in a rush and I understood the basics that if I eat less calories I’ll lose weight, and so in my head, if I eat extremely little calories I’ll lose a lot of weight, fast. For a solid 2 years I ate only 500 calories per day. Along with that, I did cardio 5-6 days per week, slow speed jog, for 30-45 mins where I burnt an average of 350 calories. In my diet I ate only protein, and very little carb, not even fruits. I was stupid and made a bad decision having not done enough research. I then joined the gym and got into strength training and surprisingly enough I still got fairly strong on very low calories.
The issue I have now is, back in October 2023, I got a new job. This was core downtown and as you can imagine there was lots to eat. For 30 days I had to be in person every single day, so I would come to work and eat like crazy, I’m talking a whole 12-1300 calorie meal just for lunch. And then I would go home and eat another dinner consisting of another 1200 calories. I was also going through heavy mental health issues during that period so I stopped going to the gym or working out entirely. In those 30 days, I gained about 20lbs and the habits continued, although they slowed down once i started working from home, I still ended up gaining another 15lbs.
Since then I have been on and off dieting, I am doing on and off exercise. I remain at 205. None of my old clothes fit anymore. I want to get back in shape. But I want to also live a healthy lifestyle. I currently eat about 800 calories a day, sometimes 1000. I try to do an hour long cardio session in which I burn 900 calories or close to it almost every day. However, I don’t want to eat 1000 calories only and burn them all of anyways. I need to fix my metabolism and get back to a normal diet. My goal weight is wherever I’m looking lean again. Probably closer to 160.
Does anyone have any idea how I can accomplish this?

I'm not sure if I need a colonoscopy or if the doctor is trying to get extra money.
Most of colonoscopy reasons don't apply to me. I'm 19, tested negative for IBD (low calprotectin), and my symptoms aren't severe. My main symptoms are constant bloating(and discomfort/pain), shortness of breath, fatigue, and weight loss. So I have no nausea/vomiting or bowel changes.
What do you think?

Hei, hi and hello!
I’m Onsie Onsfjord or Fjord feel free to call me whichever is not mind to me.
I’m a 26-year-old English Norwegian who’s mainly lived his whole life in the United Kingdom and graduated from university with a degree in Computer Networks and is now working as a DIE for the NHS (Digital Infrastructure Engineer).
Caught you off guard with that job title acronym huh? Yeah, trust me when I first started it had me in fits of laughter, but you get used to it after a while.
So a bit about me; - I’m an introvert and tend to avoid public crowds, events and such and just try to vibe with friends on a nice game of anything (which you’ll see below) - I’m an avid IT nerd and will most likely remain this way for my whole career as IT is my education and career at this point - On top of IT you guessed it I’m also a very big avid “gamer” I mainly play PC and PS5 games with my current interests being in Helldivers 2, Star Wars: The Fallen Order, and Jedi: Survivor amongst a few other things like WoW, CoD, SWTOR and so on. - I love learning, whether it be history, game lore, languages, cultures, etc. You name it, and I’ll probably be interested in it (Trust me, you give me a flag of any country, and I’ll be able to tell you the country’s name and political structure. - I’m also an avid book reader and you’ll most likely see my shelf full of different manga from all types of genres, I don’t particularly watch anime, I mainly read instead because I find it more “interesting” for better or not. (Not that I'm opposed to watching it) - I’m trying to learn to cook myself but not very good at it as my most recent attempt I ended up giving myself food poisoning so it’s sufficient to say you will have a big gamble if you’d like me to cook ha-ha. - I do watch football from time to time and do support a few clubs from around the world (mainly northern Europe, the UK, and the US) feel free to guess if you’d like! - I’m currently on a VLCD and have lost about 2 stone within 1 month which I’m super super happy about.
In terms of looks and such I’m what an average 26-year-old would look like who is 6’1/6’2 with a picture on request.
Please don’t judge too much as I’m still working on improving myself.
What am I about? I’ve always made it a goal to help, care for, and support those close to me, whether it be friends, old friends, or the equivalent of my family. They’ve been there for me, and I’ll go hell and back for them as they’ve stood by me through thick and thin, even through the loss of other close friends; they’ve picked me up and brushed me down and set me straight to which I will always forever be in their debt and have helped them being.
Whilst I’ve been shot and backstabbed by many of those who I thought were close to me I just try and see the positive and avoid the unnecessary drama and arguments as life is just way too generally short for that kind of stuff and we should all get along with each other in my mind.
What am I looking for? I apologize if this comes off as really picky - Someone in the realm of the US, Canada or Europe - Someone between the age of 20 to 28 years old - Someone who has an interest in IT, manga, gaming, and such (It’s easier to talk to people with the same interest I’ve found though you don’t need to work in IT at all) - Just be a kind honest individual who I can back and vice versa. Be there for each other.
I am looking for a monogamous and serious relationship and not a friendship, however, I’m fine with starting out as friends whilst getting to know each other etc.
The end? Well, I’d like to say that this was the short and sweet version of myself without giving much more away about me but hey hopefully you’ve stayed this far and if you have, I have a very small simple request for you!
If you do decide I’m someone you’d like to get to know and all of that stuff then when messaging me, please make a somewhat attempt of an introduction (I’m not asking for the mass of paragraphs or anything) just a hi, your name (doesn’t have to be your real name), where you’re from, how old are you, what you do, hobbies, etc and we’ll go from there!
Low-effort chats & messages will be removed also, so I know that you’ve made it this far please put your answers to this question (wrong answers don’t matter, it’s what is attempted counts)
“I was born in the winter on a remembrance day, which day was this?”
Take care and hope to see your message 😊

Hello,
This is a rant/seeking advice tangent that I’ve had been thinking about lately. For the past year, ever since I hit 225 on bench, I’ve lost the discipline I used to have to go to the gym. Therr are times where it’s just impossible to push thorough due to being a college student with a packed schedule. I’ve been trying to lose weight the past year and I’ve been fluctuating over and under 5 lbs my normal weight. I’m 190 lbs at 5’ 10”. My parents have commented on my belly and no matter how much I try to maintain a diet, my weight loss is SO SLOW. Yet when I take a week off from dieting (like vacation, finals, etc.), I gain back like 7 lbs. The muscle that I have on my arms is not defined whatsoever due to the fat on my arms. While I have the summer to grind at the gym, I also am starting my PhD this fall. On top of all of this, I have a caffeine addiction due to the gym that has made me intolerable to caffeine. I yawn at the gym after drinking 2 C4s pre workout still. I do cardio after every gym session and it’s been a struggle. I need genuine advice, can somebody give me tips on what I should be doing different?

Intermittent Fasting (simplevitalnutrition.com)
​
​
This eating pattern involves alternating periods of fasting and eating. It has gained popularity as a potential weight loss strategy and for its potential effects on metabolic health.

Hello,
This is a rant/seeking advice tangent that I’ve had been thinking about lately. For the past year, ever since I hit 225 on bench, I’ve lost the discipline I used to have to go to the gym. Therr are times where it’s just impossible to push thorough due to being a college student with a packed schedule. I’ve been trying to lose weight the past year and I’ve been fluctuating over and under 5 lbs my normal weight. I’m 190 lbs at 5’ 10”.

I yawn at the gym after drinking 2 C4s pre workout still. I do cardio after every gym session and it’s been a struggle. I need genuine advice, can somebody give me tips on what I should be doing different?

I (33F) went back to university a few years ago to pursue a different career. In order to work in this field, in addition to your degree, you need to do a year internship and pass four board exams. I want to specialize within the field, which requires passing a further three specializing exams.
I completed my internship in January this year. It was an incredibly toxic workplace with a very high turnover. I worked 60 hour weeks. I was my managers punching bag and scapegoat and at some point a part of me just shut down in order to get through it. I had three coworkers from different departments approach me separately about how I was being treated and that I should report it to the regulatory board.
I have passed three of the four board exams. Two of them last year and one earlier this year. I failed the fourth exam and will have to retake it in August. Because I basically completed my internship and am just left with one board exam I am in an employment limbo where I can’t really work as an intern nor do I qualify to work in the profession. I have now been unemployed since February and desperately need to find a job.
I feel like I am in my own personalized version of hell. Failing the fourth board exam really put me in a very dark place. I have always done well academically and this was the first exam I’ve ever failed. My plan was to write the specializing exams in August but now I guess I’m going to have to push that to next year because I have to pass my board exam first.
I do some freelance work here and there but I absolutely despise every minute of it. I know it’s money coming in and I should be grateful but the amount I make barely covers groceries. And along with the money, everything is running out or breaking. My phone is at its end. My laptop is barely working. My clothes have holes in them. I have been applying to jobs, and will literally take anything I can get but the unemployment rate in my country is extremely high and jobs are so scarce.
On top of everything my relationship with my GF (32) is also failing. The final nail in the coffin was after my GFs mother passed away and I was told in no uncertain terms that I am not allowed to come to the funeral. My GF is not out to her family and I don’t see her acknowledging my role in her life anytime soon. I would never force anyone to come out of the closet if they are not ready but I want to have children and I just don’t see how or where I fit into her life.
But I currently stay with my GF. Since her mothers passing she has been staying with her father in her hometown for months at a time. They have been discussing having him move here (to my GFs place). This will basically mean that I will lose my home as I cannot afford to pay the rent on my own.
Once I inevitably lose my home I will have nowhere to go. My mother and my intellectually disabled brother stay with my aunt. My mother was retrenched a few years ago and has since been unable to find work. We’ve literally lost everything. I could stay at my aunts place but there is no room for me there. My aunt will also be retiring at the end of the year and I don’t want to put anymore financial strain on her.
I feel so hopelessly trapped. I just don’t know what to do.
The town I currently live in has very few job opportunities. So I would basically have to move to get a job but then none of the jobs actually pay enough for me to be able to survive. There are even fewer jobs in the town where my family lives.
I cry myself to sleep every night. The freelance work I do is online so I barely leave my apartment. I do the same thing everyday, over and over. I haven’t spoken to another human being in person for 6 days now. It’s a feeling of utter aloneness that I don’t even have the words to describe.
Even if I could leave where would I go, what would I do. I have no money, no friends, nothing. And everyday I have to face the fact that this is my reality, my hell. I worked so incredibly hard to get through that internship. I studied so incredibly hard for that exam. I put 110% in everything I do. And for what?
The only good thing I have is that I was able to lose 30 kgs. I’ve been overweight my entire life and for the first time I feel like I actually like my body. But for what? I can’t even afford new clothes, I wear the same baggy oversized clothes from before my weight loss. Because it’s all I have.
All I wanted was to build a decent life for myself. To have a job, enough money to survive, to have friends, and a family.
Before I went back to university, I was miserable, literally planning my suicide. But I made a promise to myself, that I would make a list of everything I hated about my life and at least try to fix it. And I did, I grabbed every opportunity that was available to me, I fought so very hard to get out of that hole. But now I’m halfway through that list and I’m just right back where I started, if not worse off because I actually had hope that things could get bette for me. And now that hope is gone.
Now all I see is how horrible the world is, how much pain and suffering there is. Everyone is suffering. The world has gone to shit, so what makes me so special that things will work out for me?
I so desperately want to live, to experience life but it feels like every chance I had, every opportunity was for nothing. That I was just going to end up the same way. I’m sleeping so much. I’m drinking so much. Just anything to take me away from this reality. And things could have been so different, if I could have just passed the exam I could have found a job. Something, just anything.
I’m just wasting away. And I don’t think it’s every going to get better. I saw my grandparents suffer. I saw my single mother suffer. This is just the way it’s always going to be in my life. And I’m just the idiot who thought that maybe, just maybe my life could be something different. I should have ended it when I had the courage to do so.

34 M here. My maintenace calories is 2300, and I eat 2000 calories a day to create a slight deficit. I am managing to do that even with certain portion of fast food (pizza, fried snack etc) as well as high sugar stuff like Icecreams. This happens few times a week but I make sure that my overall calories intake during the day doesn't cross 2000, and the ratio of Carbs, Protien and Fat is 35:35:30.
Can this hamper my weight loss goal in anyways?

What I learned about the McAlberts the first 3 weeks of the Karen Read Trial:
1) They create fake weight loss competitions to help Matt McCabe shed some pounds and for an excuse to avoid eating mediocre D&E
2) Brian Albert is the oldest. Confirmed by several Albert’s because Lally asks the same questions
3) They have some sort of genetic condition that creates selective memories
4) They have vivid memories of everyone’s drink of choice
5) The Albert cousin Snapchat is more exclusive than Studio 54
6) Allie McCabe really hates Life360
7) The girls absolutely can’t talk to hockey players from neighboring towns
8) Chris Albert forgot to tell Julie he was just joking when he said Buchenik’s name was Bukake
9) Canton girls wear crosses to fend off Jen McCabe’s evil vibes
10) They will tell you to shut up if you go to them in a crisis
11) They make fun of people who take pride in their house or property
12) They differentiate people by their heritage rather than their names
13) Allie McCabe is trying to partner with Animal Planet to share her puppy saving adventures
14) Jen McCabe is not helping her reputation by playing “It’s Raining Men” at parties
15) If you call a McAlbert woman high maintenance publically be prepared to take a trip to Zales
16) Colin Albert doesn’t know what social media is or that he’s a part of it
17) Albert children start drinking when they turn 7 and start Kindergarten
18) They have rituals
19) Colin Albert is happy the Advantage boys never pulled up because he was too wasted to KO bang bang
