Because you don’t have much weight to lose you may need to up just about everything or lower the workouts. Are your keto stix light pink or dark? you may be too deep in ketosis.
I’m literally only hungry about 5-10% of the time so it definitely sounds like something may be off.
Did you gain weight eating that much? And how much fat is too much fat?
I’m definitely curious about where you got this idea that there is a “too deep in ketosis” level especially since keto stix don’t measure ketone utilization. They only measure whether you are dumping excess ketones in urine.
Maybe I did? I’m not scale obsessed. It’s common for people to start off very hungry in the beginning of keto and it does go away. Your body doesn’t care what you weigh, it’s fixing your insides until you are healthy. Here are my keto “rules” for myself.
Net carbs 20g or less
Moderate protein (if you need a number, 1g to 1.5g per kg of lean mass based on 2 Dudes recommendations. Lean mass can be found through many simple online calculators.)
Fat to satiety. This does not mean stuff yourself with fat at every turn until your sick. I add fat to all my meals. And, if I’m still hungry, I like to drink broth with butter or heavy cream added.
Keto is not a diet, it’s a way of eating. Diets are usually about restriction and vanity, a way of eating is about life and living it.
I’m trying to find it. All I’m finding are topics and phrases using “deep ketosis” which means you aren’t bouncing in and out of ketosis and you’re staying in it for long periods. And, keto stix still don’t measure this.
Do you mean bullet proof coffee? I mean, sure you can drink bullet proof coffee but, I recommend trying to make it a point to eat a lot of whole foods. But, plenty of people in this forum like to start their days with bullet proof coffee. I find that drinks don’t make me feel really satisfied. Broth does but that’s about it for me. I think it’s because it’s like drinking a creamy comforting soup.
I eat only whole foods plus bulletproof coffee. I’ve always eaten whole organic foods. No gmo’s gluten free… All of that. I have bpc in the morning and in the afternoon.
I wasn’t sure if you meant you were drinking 12 cups a day or something lol. It sounds like you’re on the right track now, get to the point of not feeling hungry and you’ll be golden!
I have been watching Eric Berg on YouTube great information on reducing craving…, he dies suggest more vegetables… like wheat grass.,
Try these two ashwaganda drops and maca powder. They help your body adapt to the new diet and are both very good for you and natural. I put mine in the protein shake with almond milk unsweetened.
stop limiting your calories at all and see how you do after a week. eat the minimum amount of carbs, maybe go up a little on protein, and eat as much fat as you want. nom nom nom. re assess in a week
Since I haven’t seen it posted here yet, I’ll say it.
Possibly could try a 1-2 day Fast. See if that helps you push through this plateau.
I’m going to guess no one suggested a fast because being starving all the time and restricting calories is not a good start to do one until the other issues are worked out.
Hi, i just started keto and intermittent fasting (IF) on 9/17/18, so i’m in my 4th week. The first two weeks were difficult, but the food cravings have definitely subsided. I plan my meals a few days ahead to make sure I’m getting all of the fat (some days I don’t reach the 70%) but overall i’m eating very healthy and not worried about the calorie intake as the IF will find some fat to supplement what I’m not eating. My crossfit workouts were the hardest in week 2, i really felt like i had no energy for the WOD on my fasting days and my scores were some of the lowest in my class. It was sad, but I know my body is going through a big transition right now. Patience is key. This week i have felt pretty normal, even while fasting. Yesterday I did 10 intervals of 90 sec of rowing at a fast pace (90sec rest in between) - no problem. I have lost at least 12lbs so far. I’m getting my body fat measured at the gym tomorrow. Hopefully it has gone down too, but if not, i’m still going to keep working at it - it’s a process. Progress not perfection. Happy to be here with all of you. 
Good on you. Glad you’re getting some results!
But you might be doing it the hard way.
‘Going KETO’ means no more food cravings because you should eat until you are satisfied. That is, eat until you are not craving. If you under eat, you risk lowering your basal metabolic rate (BMR) and then needing more workouts to bridge that gap.
KETO often means doing the opposite of what you always knew to be true. Try eating more fat and maybe more salt. Of course drink more water - that helps transport things around.
But again congrats on your new lifestyle
