Keto is def a diet that you decide to commit to. The first few weeks are the hardest. You just have to make the decision to do it and go 100% into it. Cheating on this diet completely backfires your progress. That one bite, or one drink, one cheat day is not something that you bounce back from easily. It takes weeks to start losing again.

There is a keto group on FB specifally for SLers if you are really serious about it

wowza, that absolutely scares me lol >.< but the benefits seem to be worth it. I'd love to check the group out!

As long as you make sure to eat plenty of fats, it does get much easier - insulin makes you want to keep eating; when you cut down its production by not eating carbs, you don't want to eat so much.

My spouse can eat carbs now in moderation [less than 100 g a day] and is still keeping in ketosis; I have to be a lot more strict, but we're both off of insulin injections.

Faerycat That's super awesome!!! Yea I'd like to not feel like eating all the time >.< lol I love hearing about the progress many are making with this diet!

Every single day of my life I have woken up sick to my stomach, until I started keto. I can't tell you how big of a difference I feel when I am eating right. There is a TON of support on fb and plurk. Like I said you just have to commit to yourself and trust the process. Stick with basics and really learn about the diet at first so you don't get overwhelmed.

and most of all... YOU CAN DO IT. Believe in yourself that you can and will be disciplined!
