It was a hectic day. Changing habits isn't easy, but I look forward to getting my body in ketosis!

    Today is my 12th day and yesterday and today I've really been feeling it. I've got the keto flu I think. I wish you well

    This is my 12th day in keto and my real second day following protocol. I seem to be weak for cravings so I'm doing the protidiet alternatives. Hang in there. Hopefully both of us make it through.

    It gets better. Start drinking powerade zero - it helps tremendously with the keto flu. Remember to drink more water than you think you need, and salt everything. It's so much easier when you're not dehydrated.

    I went to bed at 7:30 last night which I never do. I had a slight fever and chills. It's 10:30 am now and feel very weak. I'll keep up the fluids but might miss my daily walk for today. I'm not getting cravings or anything.

    I have been on a very low carb /high fat diet for 21 days, lost 20lbs so far. I cannot completely do a full on Ketogenic diet due to breastfeeding but I am consuming good carbs. I have been doing so much research about the Keto diet and I can't wait to try it, but for now...duty calls for me to be a nursing mom
