Alright Veeky Forums - I am a woman pretty well versed in the field of nutrition and exercise, used to be in very good shape until I got pregnant with my daughter. Now i am trying to shed the weight. I used to eat paleo 90% of the time, liked it a lot. I recently did a whole30 now am trying my hand at Keto to shed some fast pounds then just moving on to sensible diet and exercise.
Tell me more about keto! Im eating at a 20% deficit and my macros are calculated at 123g fat, 102g protein, and less than 20g carbs. This is my 6th day, I have never went over on carbs and have trouble staying under my protein value and feeling full (although I have). I am hungry all the time and want to kill myself eating 10 olives an a slice of cheese for a snack. should I stick it out or move on? Am i just not in ketosis yet?? I want to still be able to work out too!
Picture is me before I got pregnant and fat for the 3rd time.

Ketosis usually starts after two days.
Stick with it if you want to, Keto isn't magic, but if the only way to get you to eat less is to go keto then by all means do so.
Here ya go. just looking for some advice.
2 days. I didn't realize it was that fast. When does the "full" feeling come i read about?
I'd say it's a pretty good chance you're having Keto-flu, it usually takes about a week or two to get rid of it and then you'll feel like yourself again and going to the gym will seem like a good idea.
Its April and I still don't know its 2017. Ill go kill myself now.
keto flu simply comes if you are lacking salt in your diet which often happens on keto diets because there is so little salt in most "keto" foods naturally. Just be sure to add some salt to your cooking or make chicken soup if you feel the flu.
I feel pretty good aside from being hungry. I did feel weak and had a bad headache, but that is gone now.
