2 Days On Keto Diet

Good luck and well done to you and all Keto devotees.
Personally I followed a slightly different route which I’ll share in case the K flu does hit too hard.
My approach has not been to count carbs but to follow the Dr Hallberg rules of
1. Eat when hungry stop when full
2. Avoid potatoes, grains and sugary things
3. Eat real food
4. Avoid low fat foods

Depending on my food choices each day sometimes I’m eating virtually no carbs, some days I’m probably over 50g.
It’s still a massive lifestyle change with very positive results but I’ve found it simple to follow as well.
I’m not being critical of anyone else’s choices - Keto sounds very effective.

This sounds good and most likely where I’ll end up, want to break this carb cycle I’m in and then see where it leaves me.

I do similar although I probably average 80g per day but sometimes a lot lower.
 
The first two meals I had after diagnosis were just meat - I was up to the eyes in carbs for almost two years - to lower cholesterol - I think I had lamb and pork, and then steak and mushrooms. It was such a relief.
Yes I did have false hypos, but a drink and a few grapes sorted those out.
