I am new to Keto and haven’t been able to get a definitive answer on this so… should I use an app to track all my macros? Or should I just keep track of carbs for now as I get started? My goals include more energy and just…feeling better overall. I am underweight so weight loss is not a concern. Thanks!
New and what to track?

Thanks! It certainly is easier. I am not a fan of tracking apps, though maybe I just haven’t found a good one…

You probably won’t get a definitive answer because it is a very personal thing. I’d try different ways and see what works for you. The nice thing is there isn’t a wrong answer, you’re just looking for the best way for you.

Yes. 
Seriously, though, if I had to track macros or count calories, I could never eat keto. Other people on these forums, however, appear to feel that they don’t exist unless they are tracking something. To each his or her own, I say!

If I didn’t track, I’d do nothing different and simultaneously screw things up.
Logging is part of the learning process, IMHO. So many things that look safe are in fact not. It’s also a very good planning tool.
I use Cronometer because it has an official database that is controlled by the company, rather than one that anyone can add anything - no matter how incorrect - to. If I’m doing tracking to ensure I’m doing it right, I want to be sure I’m doing it right.
