I'm rather envious of those who have been drinking vats of double cream. lol.
I've never been able to do that.
I do stick to roughly keto fat/protein macros, but that is for two reasons, firstly large amounts of protein seem to overload my digestive system and leave me feeling claggy and weighed down, and it sits like a weight in my stomach, and secondly because the fat is satisfying, when I am limited in the amount of protein I can digest. But too much fat has the same effect as too much protein... so I need to balance both to appetite and my body's own capacity to digest.
