I'd like to do the keto diet together with my husband. But we need to be careful with his meat intake, since he has a slowly failing kidney. Can we still do the keto diet, with this limitation? We are also both on blood pressure maintenance. Thanks!

I enjoy keto and find it easy to stick to the diet. However constipation is an issue, presumably because fibre intake is lower on 20 gm carbs. I drink plenty of water and have tried recommended tips. Any other suggestions?

Hi, I've been doing the keto this is my second week but I am gaining weight. I am not eating carbs at all. Maybe I am having to much food or fat? I dont eat much but I 've been eating things that I would normally don't eat on regular basis like chesse, olive oil, coconut out, ghee etc. I am 45. PLEASE HELP:)

Hi I think you might have eaten too much protein or lack of sleep?
You only need to have 3oz of protein per meal and I recommend you to do intermittent fasting and keto. Beasicalky skip breakfast or dinner and eat ketogenic diet food during eating widow 6 hours and fasting 18 hours ! Good luck !

Eating keto will only help you both. It is a myth that excess protein harms the kidneys. My husband has been doing keto for 18 months going slowly stricter and has improved his kidney function, and he is now off all meds. He was on 2000mgs of metformin, 5mg of glimepiride, he’s off his cholesterol med and the Benicar for high blood pressure! Do not be afraid. Start slowly removing the carbs and add in protein and healthy fats.

Yes I haven't lost weight either I've been keto for a while. I intermittent fast everyday because I drink one 20 Oz Bulletproof Coffee (70 G of heavy cream + 20 G of butter) which last me all day until around 6pm when I have my one meal with less than 20 grams of carbs, 200 g of protein and a tablespoon of ghee. So I don't know what I'm doing wrong....
