Rethink your decision to have mashed potatoes and stuffing at Thanksgiving. Look for my earlier post containing the people to follow on you tube. People who “have a cheat day” go right back to burning glucose and sabotage all the wonderful effects of ketosis.
People eating carbs on a restricted-calorie diet lose water and muscle. People eating a well-formulated keto diet lose fat, along with their cravings and excessive appetite.
Why do that?
You have to get kind of fanatical about it and you have to get the relatives to back off on trying to get you to eat the wrong thing too.
One time I was full on into keto and tried a piece of berry pie.
I took one bite and couldn’t stand the sugar, I spit it out even.
I was kidding about the Thanksgiving cheat.
I have gotten away with it in the past but, it’s better to not test your addiction.
Well, it’s not an addiction but, it’s kind of like a junkie thinking he can just do a little and not end up where he was at the bottom.
