  • Mathematically, keto and veganism don't really lend themselves to compatibility. I think most people have hit the nail on the head with the lack of variety that would challenge you to make it a sustainable diet.

  • 1. Shop farmer's markets/local if you can. Often times you can get good discounts. 2. Look for an Asian market. Produce is super cheap. 3.

  • The idea of "ruining" a diet is a strange approach. Did you set yourself back? Yeah, maybe. Can you come back from this? Absolutely. Even if you overindulged a little you didn't "ruin" anything, you just made reaching your goal a little more difficult. Evaluate, course correct and keep going. You got this.
  • It can be safe over longer periods of time as long as you're not suffering from ketoacidosis. If your plan is to maintain that lifestyle long term get ketone test strips and make sure to manage healthy ketosis rather than allowing the diet to effectively poison your body when you take it too far.
