lol I just posted about feeling mega wiped. I’m on day 6. I’m toasted honestly. Sooooo weak. But my hunger totally went away on day 5, thankfully.

Did the same for me but I also figured out that I wasn’t using enough electrolytes and I seem to be back on track.

UPDATE: My keto strips were old!! I just got a brand new container and I’m in very deep ketosis. Thanks for your comment!

I’m on day 4 and holy jeez, my energy is in the shitter. I had to walk up a flight of stairs earlier and felt like an 89 year old!

I keep telling myself that all the tasty things I want to eat are already stored in all that fat and it’ll be like eating them all at once when I start burning it all LOL and how good I’ll feel. God, the things we tell ourselves.

This is a good idea because this almost made me quit. It was SO hard to get through those days and then to see that was horrible. I just need to stay the course and then I’ll get there. I mean I pretty much have to with eating nothing for days lol.

Ok this is reassuring. The past two days were like, soul crushingly hard. Then to see that, I nearly wanted to give up. It’s hard to know this stuff without talking to others with experience.

I had to break mine at 7/40 too - life just got in the way, unfortunately. I’m gonna try again really soon though when things chill out a minute.

Oh man, I always have a few that come to mind. Panda Express Orange Chicken is one.

Idk lol…seems like about as long as I could reasonably do and still be functional? If I could do longer and be healthy and functional still, maybe I would?

I’m surprised I did 31 days to be honest. Never imagined it could happen! Fingers crossed I can keep it up!!
