A member asked:
Would i be able to lose 40-45 lbs in 2 months with ketosis and exercise?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable: It depends on how much you weigh now. For example, a patient of mine who was 425lbs lost 80lbs in his first 9 weeks. Much more common is a patient losing 20 lbs in the first two months as they don't have near as much to lose. However, if you need to lose 30-50 total, for example, most people who go into ketosis will lose closer to 20 lbs in 2 months based on my estimation of patients I'v seen.

Medically supervised very low calorie diet (800 calories). Ok to exercise. Principle of ketosis. Burn about 400 cal/day/hr monitor. Safe?
Been in Ketosis to lose weight (>25 g carbs/day). Lately my heart feels like it's pounding. Heart rate/blood pressure are normal. Should I be worried?
