I started keto last October and felt great... Made it through Thanksgiving, no problem... Got to Christmas and fell off the wagon and have been dragged by that damn thing since!

    Good luck, you can do it! I just started about a month ago and am loving it!

    You can do it! Remember the first few days are the hardest because you're craving sugar and keto flu but after that everything just settles down. Remember to keep your sodium and potassium up!

    As someone who has "fallen off" the wagon a number of times in my life, I find I'm bouncy. You'll bounce back up and get to where you want to be. Motivation comes from strange places sometimes but it does come back!

    something that's helped me in the past is the "step down" approach. Some people can go all in all at once but it's been helpful in the past for me to limit myself to 100g of carbs for 5 days, then to 75g for 5 days, then 50g, then 30g etc until I'm where I want to be.

    Good luck!
