I was doing OK, I dropped 16 pounds in 3 months, but I fell off the wagon (the last 3 weeks I did not drop any weight and got fed up) and in one week gained 6 pounds. I am finding it really difficult to get back on track and in the afternoons have huge cravings for sweets and carbs, which I have given into all week
Today I m trying to get back into keto and wondered if anyone has any tips for getting started again… I live in a remote place southern Chile and it is difficult to get hold of any keto products (keto strips, nice green veg, MCTs, electrolytes without glucose, etc.) So I was relying on a glucose meter (which I gave up on as my glucose levels way up on keto), and just eating plain, unprocessed foods (beef, chicken, cucumber, zucchini, cream, butter, etc.) NO sugar, flours or alcohol. I stuck to the macros although I didn’t mesure them. Maybe that is my problem?
I also felt really tired all the time on keto, slept loads. Going back to eating carbs at least I had energy. It is quite hard to get hold of electrolytes without glucose here. Maybe I will try and get 0 calorie Gatorade, has anyone else had problems of low energy and do the electrolytes work to get some energy?
all tips gratefully received!!
