Knowing how to start a keto diet can be the hardest part of the whole process. We recommend fasting for one to two days to start with, as this will help your body to enter the state of ketosis, where it’s burning fat as its primary energy source. It’s really important to make sure you’re staying hydrated during this time to stop yourself from getting ill.
It’s also a good idea to have a meal plan for your first week, make sure you’ve stocked up on lots of keto-friendly foods, and download an app that tracks calories, macronutrients or both to help you to stay on top of your eating plan.
Do as much food prep as you can in advance and look at where you can fit exercise into your schedule in advance to keep yourself on track.
