Starting vegan keto tomorrow! Any tips?

Question

Any tips? I’m at my heaviest I’ve ever been, 5’2 and 175 lbs 😅 I’ve been vegan for 3 months now!

Answer

I’m not quite sure about vegan but I assume just eat your version of protein (remember beans are not aloud) and nuts. I eat a lot of cheese as a snack so I’m not sure about that but there’s TONS of recipes on Pinterest that you can try. Probably do meal preps for you would be easiest and ALWAYS carry snacks with you. Drink lots of water, get enough salt, eat lots of fat (butter, olive oil, etc.) because that will be your energy source instead of carbs. If you crave something sweet you can have a few berries a day with whipped cream there’s lots of options like I said just go on google or Pinterest. You might get the Keto flu but it’s normal just try and drink more water and get lots of rest and power through it. Idk how well it will work for being vegan because you need lots of protein for it to work but just research and try it out 🤷‍♀️ you CANNOT have cheat days or even cheat snacks because it will throw you out of ketosis if you’re craving something google a recipe for the Keto version of it and it’s probably there. Don’t let yourself get hungry just keep snacking. You can get ketone test strips from amazon to see if you are in ketosis or if you are staying in ketosis.

Answer

When I started keto, I ate 3 times a day but I never snacked when I got hungry. That was my biggest mistake, eat when you’re hungry. You’ll also (probably) lose a lot of water. I drank more water than usual (close to 100 Oz) and drank Gatorade zero for the first week or so. Another thing I recommend is to track your food to see how much of your macros you’re eating. It’s helped me so much. I suggest doing a lot of research, I’ve found a lot of good recipes and tips on Pinterest and YouTube (the group keto connect on YouTube is amazing). If you crave carbs and give in to it, just know it’s not the end of the world. Good luck!
