KETO How It Works
What is the Ketogenic Diet ?
The ketogenic diet is a high-fat, moderate protein, low-carb diet. It’s a diet that causes ketones to be produced by the liver, shifting the body’s metabolism away from glucose and towards fat utilization

Keto getting you Macronutrients Right?
Ideally, you should be eating:
5-10% of calories from carbs (net carbs). Typically, 20-30 grams of net carbs is recommended to start with.
15-30% of calories from protein and
60-75% of calories from fat. If y
our goal is to lose weight, your fat intake might even go below 60%. Fat is used as a “filler” and should make up the remaining calories.

Resources
Tools
Food Tracker App: I use the Lose it App but if I could do it again I would go with My Fitness Pal
Food Scale – I just bought one after 3 weeks it makes things more accurate to track I bought mine at Costco because it was on sale for $15.00
Activity Tracker: like Fitbit I don’t wear jewelry not even my wedding ring so wearing a fitbit is off the table for me so my husband bought me a tracker I could clip to my shoe I lost it after 2 weeks . I don’t always carry my phone in my pocket so tracker on the phone isn’t accurate still looking for a work around.
Protein Power : I just bought ISOPURE® ZERO/LOW CARB
