Keto and fasting are not the same thing.

Here is another site to explain a lot of what you are asking in your threads. Ketogenic diet is not the same as fasting. People who are fat adapted and utilizing fat for fuel find fasting easier than those who are just starting out. Some folks who eat a ketogenic diet NEVER fast.

Evaluate your goals and remember it’s not a quick fix or an overnight miracle diet. It’s hard work, paying attention, being patient and educating yourself.

Good advice PetaMarie. Personally I am seeing miraculous results in 4 months and feel no urges to cheat because my life is getting so damn much better. I wish that I knew this when I was in my 20’s and I would probably still have both legs and kidneys. But my body is doing its thing and the repairs are going great. A lifetime of damage won’t fix itself overnight.

There is an entire category devoted to fasting. That would be the best place to start.

As mentioned in your previous thread, fasting is better waited until you are fat adapted.

Before keto there would have been no way for me to fast. No that I am five month in I fasted through breakfast Saturday and Sunday this weekend. I now look at it as yeah, I think I can do that. Once you lose the carbs AND get fat adapted it is much more plausible. It is probably less stressful in terms of hunger too.
