I went way over on my carbs yesterday. I am trying to follow Keto and I am supposed to keep my carbs at 25% yesterday I was at 90%

    That doesn't sound very likely. Keto is more like 5% carbs, and no decent human diet has only 10% fat and protein combined.

    Your pictures don't look like 90% carbs.

    Your meals look fantastic - but definitely not 90% carbs.

    Do you know what carbs are? Or did you post the wrong picture?

    Where are you getting your nutritional info from on this, OP? I'm struggling to see how the meals pictured here are 90% carbs.

    OP, you said 25% carb. It is more correct to say that your max net carb should be 25. The way you said could easily have 100 or more grams of carby food.

    90%? I think you must have a typo there.

    If the picture was your food, that was a good keto day. Except maybe that last picture... if it was pasta it would have been higher carb for that meal... overall it was probably still a low carb day.

    Even if you do go over your carb limit sometimes, it is not a big deal unless you need to have carbs very low for medical reasons. Just go back to your chosen macros/diet the next day and no harm done. :)

    Perhaps OP is confusing % of macros with grams of macros? Maybe those pictures show 90g of carbs.

    Are you doing keto because you didn’t realize it’s just cico or because you have a medical reason?

    well, you went over your carbs.

    this explains why the Earth has stopped spinning and why we're all in a freefall to our untimely deaths.

    oh wait, that didnt happen at all.

    youll be alright. promise.
