Problem with keto is if you ever start eating carbs again you’ll pile the weight on fast

[kobe]

yea just gotta be careful. i had 4-5 slip up days and still lost 14 lbs though. as long as you dont go back to bad eating habits every day then you'll be alright. i dont see myself eating a lot of fast food again and ive never had an issue avoiding pizza, bread, pasta. the biggest thing for me was drinking nothing but water now instead of sweet tea/dr pepper all day. i haven't really had those cravings yet surprisingly so thats good

everything down here is bad for you so its hard to avoid esp if you want to go out at all with friends. ive been trying to avoid hanging out with ppl so i dont drink or eat the wrong things lol.

[kobe]

once you dive in to nutrition heavy then you won't want to eat bad again. that's what has made a huge difference for me this time around. learning the actual science of what im putting in my body

[Stevie B]

I never minded water but yea for some people it’s tough to go from those certain soft drinks to that

Ah love me Dr P...

Have you tried those Keto strips. Essentially you piss on it and it lets you know if your body is in a ketogenic state.

yea had a terrible habit with that. if you can avoid drinking your calories then that's most of the battle really

I follow this chick on Instagram and she compares food labels of same products in US vs other countries.

It’s a god damn shame how many more bad for you addictive ingredients we eat

Yeah unless you get lazy. Once you’re in a habit it’s hard to break but once you break it it’s a dark hole. Covid got me bad. I barely started eating healthy again 

[Stevie B]

Fuck Covid fr

My cousin just posted something on a social media about this crazy you bring it up 

[kobe]

you need a lot of good fat tho so the meat and eggs hasnt really hurt me. just watch the calorie intake

Counting macros is better IMO then you can put yourself on a calorie restriction. That’s what i have done in the past.

I did keto for a bit but couldn’t keep with it. But the strips helped. Cheap too. Like $7 on Amazon for a bunch.

Also get yourself an air fryer. It does wonders with Brussels broccoli and all that stuff

[JR]

Air fryer best invention ever

[JR]

Honestly whatever diet helps you be healthy do it.
