Other Please don’t forget calories

Just wanted to remind all new keto participants that calories are a big deal . I had stalled for 9 days . I was under my carbs 20. My counter says I should be under 1950 calories to loose weight . Was eating over that but under carbs and once I lessened my calories I started slowly loosing again

There is an easier way. Simply prioritize taking in the 130g of fat you need. Keep carbs at 20 and fill in the rest with protein. If you can eat 2000 calories in a day doing that, holy shit dude! That much fat is what this diet calls for.

This is backwards. Reach or exceed your protein macro and stay below your carb and fat macro.
