I'm on my 4th day now. Down from 174 to 171. Averaging 1250 calories, 97g of fat, 79g of protein, 22 carb, 12 net carb a day so far. I feel like I'm doing it right, but haven't experienced any keto flu like symptoms so far. I've been supplementing some powerade zero in to help with electrolytes and nothing else out of the ordinary. Drinking 3-4 20 oz bottles of water a day in addition to coffee, powerade zero, and some sparkling water. Then again, I'm dealing with seasonal allergies/congestion that I think turned into a sinus infection, so maybe that is masking it.
I haven't really felt hungry with the calorie deficit. I've been eating a serving of peanut butter everynight to help curb and sweet cravings. Had to resist the urge last night to mindlessly snack during the Cavs game (not that I was hungry, just think its a habit). Made some awesome bacon-wrapped-avacado-stuffed chicken bombs yesterday. I think I realized Im an alright cook lol. I'm also becoming addicted to my food scale. Love that purchase. I normally eat cold cuts for lunch. One change I think I'm going to make, is to swap in salami for my bacon encrusted turkey breast. Salami is much higher in fat and has a few grams less of protein than the turkey breast, so that should help with my fat/protein ratio some.
Anyone see any issues so far?
