Wow! Keto Flu was a huge hurdle for me. I tried two previous times to switch over from a carb burner to a fat burner. I guess third time is the charmer:) I'm 2 weeks into Ketosis and I feel this amazing energy. I tried and failed two times to quit smoking 18 years ago and the third time I tried to quit, I did it....but this was a lot harder. Just a note to anyone trying to go Keto, be prepared for the Keto flu that will hit you on day 4-7. Have all of your supplements and start on a Tuesday or Wednesday. You are going to want to be in bed on days 4-7. I felt like 12 elephants walk all over my body. I didn't realize I was soooo addicted to sugar.
So, I got pass the Keto flu, here I go!

    Great work! I usually get this, but its not nearly that severe.. more like lethargic and really tired for a few days within that first week of starting out. Certainly something a newbie needs to know to expect though!

    absolutely, this info can help someone to hang in there if they know that is only last a few days:)
