Ketosis . . . Where Art Thou?
So I am in my second week, and I feel that I am not in ketosis. I thought I was for a few days but then all the sensations (energy, breath, lack of hunger) disappeared. I am now often hungry and tired. Now, I realize I can be hungry and tired and in ketosis, but I am struggling to know if I am doing something wrong on IP.
I have read posts on opposite ends of the spectrum, with some saying don't worry about the carb count etc., just follow the protocol and it works. Yet I have seen others concerned about which packets they choose (bcz of carbs) and limiting the types of veggies etc. So far, I am eating per the protocol to the best of my ability but not counting things and wonder if, perhaps, my choices have my carbs too high for ketosis. I am losing, but I think we'd lose regardless because it is such a low calorie diet.
Would love some thoughts from experienced IPers. Thanks!
