Keto dieter

[wreckeraw35]

Started a strict ketogenic diet two and a half weeks ago and currently lost just over a stone. Was initially 16 stone so was shocked into action. Very pleased with early results. Now enjoying the process but felt very low and tired the first week - keto flu?

Are you cutting calories or cutting out sugar? But yes, low carb flu might be what you are experiencing. Hang on in there!

What food do you eat on this as I may have to eat this may as I am seriously overweight and may be diabetic Gail

I have been strictly low carb, less than 10 grams per day but loads of vegetables, red meat, fish and oils. I am seventy now and so pleased with results to date. I am drinking lots of water and occasionaly adding Diaoralite. The best bit is lack of hunger pangs. I used soup and shakes too for the first few days, liked the shakes but found the soup odd. Brian

How are you feeling now? Yes, it's normal to feel a bit weird for a few days, but if you're not feeling better two-and-a-half weeks in, you might need to make some adjustments.

Great result, by the way. A whole stone in two weeks is pretty unusual! Stick with it, and you won't recognise your own reflection by Christmas
