I started keto for a month now, but I can tell you it was really hard for me to skip carbs and sugar in the beginning! I am Asian and you know Asian food is all about carbs, sugar… and more carbs and sugar! It was so tough I cannot have dinner or “dim sum” with my family and friends
(My family didn’t even agree for me to go on keto because they don’t think I’m fat, but I am - to Asian standard)
I would say the key to force yourself to skip carbs is to keep imagining that day you reach your goal! And if you did it for day 1, on day 2 tell yourself if you eat carbs today, your 1st day would go on wasted! Then keep on that thought of “All the days I did cannot go wasted”, it works for me.
