No keto anymore. About 5% of my diet was carbs. Did a lot of research on it, learned a lot, and definitely sustainable as far as foods I enjoy eating. It had me urinating like crazy and difficult to stay hydrated. That was really annoying. I also didn’t get the energy levels other people were reporting and had some tachycardia going on (which i couldn’t find any research on but i have my own theory). It just wasn’t working for me. But it’s definitely a great weight loss diet and my labs were on point during it.
I’m eating like 4-5k calories a day atm. Lots of poultry, dairy, and weight gainer protein powder. Energy levels are awesome. I need to do an a1c to see how my levels are.

Ah ok thanks for the info. I eat healthy Keto, as in I didn’t up saturated fat or meat, I just cut out simple sugars like bread and rice. Still eat fruit
Do you do a protein shake before and after you lift? I’m just curious how I should be eating right before and right after
