    Got back on a Keto plan this past Sunday after doing a balanced macro diet for a few months. I did Keto back in February and March and loved it for: the energy, the mental focus, the reduced hunger cravings, etc.

    On a balanced diet, even if I'm not gorging on carbs, I'm hungry all the damn time. I'm so much more inclined to eat sugar endlessly. I wake up tired and I'm sluggish throughout the day. Even just cutting back on sugar doesn't help.

    So I'm five days in and I've averaged 5 grams of carbs a day as opposed to my usual 30+. Planning my meals every morning using the Lose It! app and modeling out all meals and snacks to nail everything.


    That's my breakdown for food today.


    That's how much sugar I typically eat vs. the past few days. Love seeing how drastically different this is.
