I Can’t Drink Now Like I Used to a Few Years Ago (26M), is that Normal?
During college and a few years after (maybe til 23/24) I drank almost weekly and don’t get drunk that easily. In terms of beers, maybe I get tipsy at about 6 and give up at 10.
But now, I drink 2 and I get tipsy, and maybe tap out at 4/5.
Is that normal?
Going keto can be hard. But you can try eating clean keto for two meals, and then having a normal carb meal socially. That limits your carbohydrate intake to a small window per day. Your body processes it out of your system and three or four hours. So most of the day your body’s working in keto.
It’s hard to do, because you’re constantly going to be craving, but it’s more socially acceptable especially when you’re living with a feeder.
I really like metrics, so I got a keto mojo, and I can measure my blood ketone levels everyday. Helps me stay on track. If you like data that might be an option for you
Some great tips there, very much appreciated. I’m fairly ignorant re keto so will do some reading up on it, if you have any resources to hand I’d be interested to read them
I think https://charliefoundation.org/ is a good intro
I recently did another round of keto. It was very easy to search up starter diet plans, and recommendations (and plenty of folks will sell you their goods and services ) and just start doing it.
There will be an adjustment time at the start , look up keto flu. It’s mostly just being grumpy.
Keto-ade can be great for taking the edge off keto flu. It’s basically a home-made concentrated sports drink - artificial sweetener, potassium & magnesium salts and a lot of water. All the fluid & electrolytes help your kidneys filter out the metabolized fat that would otherwise linger in your bloodstream.
