Keto is easy or hard

theres really no one size fits all diet from my experience just really depends on how you feel

i think im sensitive to carbs as in i bloat easy and start looking sloppy and feel like shyt like right after i eat a meal with high carbs plus i get crazy cravings

keto keeps me sharp mentally, i dont retain water and i dont get that mid day drowsiness

its easy for me also because im not big on sweets and i just think pasta and stuff like that is ok. most of my favorite foods have high fat and protein

id say give it a shot for a few weeks and really be aware of how your body feels after you eat - try different diets and see what is best for you brotha

side note: this is day one for me on keto again and i feel pretty good + ive been killing water for a week im most likely way over a gallon a day especially on workout days

Day 2 and I've only managed half a gallon each day.

Y'all are lucky not to have the restrictions of clothing/undergarments...i.e. bodysuits.

Still reading thread so don't know if anyone answered - I know everyone's body is different but at what point did the frequency of urinating decrease???

Around 3 weeks. But its worth the extra natural energy and endurance your body makes. My lower back pain disappeared when I started drinking that much water daily.

Week three, more than halfway done. I've lost about 4 pounds, but I don't have a lot of weight to really lose. Still pissing like a champ. Haven't relapsed on the alcohol, though I've had too many tempting opportunities. Just need to get past this upcoming open bar black tie dinner next week, that shyt is about to kill me. :brutuswow:
