Keto diet question!!

[Back In Black]

Hi Zena, if you use the search function for 'The Cyclic Ketogenic Diet' started by TOP, you'll find what you are looking for.

Essentially yes, you will need to allow a percentage for carbs but I would base the carb figure on grams first and convert that to % rather than the other way around. When I did keto it was a max of 20g of carbs all from fibrous green veggies.

Good luck and maybe post your proposed diet in the diet section when done.

Agree. You must allow for carbs, even though you are not intentionally eating them. Almost impossible to avoid. I've always used a rule of thumb of 25grams/day until I'm approaching my target, then slowly increase that to about 50 grams a day for a maintenance. And as Stem correctly said, if you get them all from fibrous green veggies, so much the better.

Welcome aboard!
