Focus on Consuming Keto Food<br /><br />- Before fully committing, make a promise to avoid any shortcuts. <br /><br />- Research meals that you're unsure are keto-friendly and avoid eating out until you feel confident to do so. <br /><br />- If you enjoy a relaxing drink after work, understand which drinks are high in carbs to avoid.<br /><br />2. Avoid Foods You Dislike<br /><br />- Changing your eating habits is not easy.<br /><br />- Begin with the keto foods you enjoy, and your new regime will seem less intimidating.<br /><br />3. Make Your Meals at Home<br /><br />- Avoid purchasing prepared meals, and you'll have greater control over your diet.<br /><br />- Although most prepared meals include a list of ingredients, they may be missing some. Nearly every company uses the terms natural and artificial, but they don't define what they are.<br /><br />- There are several recipes available online or in cookbooks for the home keto chef. Try these to ensure your diet is proper. <br /><br />4. Cut Carbs Gradually<br /><br />- Health experts admit that cutting carbs is one of the most challenging aspects of the keto diet.<br /><br />- Rather than ending your diet, introduce a few low-carb items, and eliminate them slowly over time. <br /><br />5. Ease Into Your Plan<br /><br />- Some people can enter a new diet at full speed. However, your chances of success increase when you take it slow.<br /><br />- A new diet involves a weaning process that slowly removes food you once loved.<br /><br />6. Prepare for the Keto Crash<br /><br />- After a short time on the diet, some people experience a significant crash described as keto flu, and struggle to get through it. <br /><br />- You may feel run-down, depressed, or anxious from the keto flu. However, know that it's temporary, and you can get through it with perseverance. <br /><br />- If necessary, introduce a few low-level carbs into your diet to counteract the side effects. <br /><br />7. Take Electrolytes<br /><br />- Another way to decrease the effects of a keto crash is to drink beverages high in electrolytes.<br /><br />- However, avoid sports drinks with high levels of sugar or corn syrup. Instead, take supplements that contain essential minerals and electrolytes without sucrose.<br /><br />8. Keep Track of Food Cost<br /><br />- Keto is not costly, but it requires careful planning and research.<br /><br />- Do this by substituting expensive food items for cheaper ones and buying long-lasting items in bulk. <br /><br />- Several retailers sell keto-friendly items, look into these to potentially save costs. <br /><br />9. Communicate With Other Dieters<br /><br />- Do Keto with a friend, reach out to other dieters on social media, or join a keto support group.<br /><br />- You'll find more natural motivation when you have a large group supporting you
