Mind sharing your daily diet? I've tried few weeks ago. Its hard. Suffering from hunger the whole day. My meal was like, whole-meal bread with peanut butter, eggs, boiled breast with brocolli and carrots, and those snack bars like nature's valley.

After 2 weeks, i started increasing my carbs intake slowly but still trying my best to avoid carbs as much as possible.

keto means you limit your carbs below 30 g and force your body mechanics switch the energy source from using carbs to fats
your meal consist of too much carbs and starchy veg such as carrot .
that's not a keto

@theCrab, thanks for clarifying

From my sources, the carb intake is below 40g per day. However, I can't seem to find the best carbless breakfast which is suitable for me. Its either wholemeal bread with peanut butter or cereals with milk.

I knwo that brocolli and carrots has the highest carb % in the vege family. I'm trying to find an alternative to that. Maybe making my own coleslaw smile.gif

However, would like to say that this diet is stressful to me. Always in hunger. As for now, I am reducing as much carb as I can everyday.

@alien99
What bout your breakfast? 

PS: I read an article stating that you can have a nice full carb cheatmeal at least once a week during this keto diet

carrots have too much starchy carbs
brocolli is fine and very low carbs

hungry,up your fat level
just an example for your breakfast
olive oil pan fried with 5 full eggs

try to get in more fats and for 1st 2 weeks sure you feel legarthic and tired,but once you get through you will feel more energetic
dont give up at half because when you'trying to get in keto state,it like your boiling water,in the middle you put off the fire,it will never boil,don't ruin it,people fail because of that

me myself basically cant follow a strict keto diet
hence i follow a general healthy diet,works for me

IMO keto not for everyone,some people get very good results with keto,some just good with a healthy diet .

this will apply to all cutting phase where users will be in a calorie deficit state. Mind you that BMR and Calorie Maintenance is different. I have a 1619 kcal for BMR and 2509kcal for maintenance. My daily calorie intake is 80% from my maintenance which is 2000kcal; which is far higher than my BMR. So, why people can successfully decrease the fat and will not get fat if they consume carb but still under calorie deficit?

Because the simple science behind it is calorie in vs calorie out

for some keto people i know they dont count cals at all
eg 4rings

Finally I broke my Keto Diet on the 5 1/2 day. I need the energy for my workout late this evening and since I'll be paying the gym entrance fees instead of going to my usual free gym, I want to get the most out of it.
There is a thread in bodybuilding.com about weightlifting and Keto. Actually, there is a way to bulk using a Keto Diet. How? I don't really know since I use Keto for cutting. But from what I've read, some forumers that used Keto Diet managed to break PRs, have more energy compared to using glycogen.
Sadly, I don't have any whey. But I do enjoy my scrambled peanut butter egg. It is more tasty and more creamy than usual scramble egg

Haha. I hope that I won't say it again on next saturday. But you know that in CKD, you carb loading on the 7th day?
And why do you said that I need another 2 weeks to enter Keto state?

Yeah, I'm not cutting for competition but I do have a deadline for my cutting phase so if I'm using the normal low-carb diet, it will take more time.

yes for CKD you have to carbs load but for 1st phase you have to get your body adapt into it
you need to use all the remaining carbs in your glycogen
