Keto diet

Jamis67

I want to start the Keto diet, but I'm not sure if I have my calculations right. Any advise on how to get started?

Keep carbs under 25g for the first ~6weeks

Keep protein to ~.8g per lb of lean body mass

Fill the rest of your cals with fats

Drink lots of fluid
Make a bone broth tea
Add salt to everything so you can hold the water you need to stay hydrated
Make sure you are getting enough magnesium and potassium as well'

Here's a link to the main LCHF group in MFP. It's where most of us ketofiles hang out:
