I have been living the Keto lifestyle for two years now… it’s so automatic I don’t really think about it. I also feel like this life is for living and sometimes I am not going to be ‘macro perfect’… and seriously, I am okay with that.
This last weekend I did go over in my carbs, but since I was intermittent fasting and I am fat-adapted, I did not notice much difference in my ketone levels, my energy or weight.
Did I lose weight? No. Am I ok with that? Yes. Why?...

The Link Between Insulin and Fat Burning

Is a Calorie Just a Calorie? Not When You're Insulin-Resistant!
This has happened to me my entire adult life. Years ago, a friend and I vowed to lose weight together, ("For real this time!" We said.), so we joined a weight loss group. We were pumped! We were ready! We were in it to win it! We ate the same number of calories and the same types of food.

Do you have to be in Ketosis to 'be' Keto?
