Eat low fat to kiss ketosis goodbye

Today I was at the mall, and I was really hungry, so I looked around the food court for acceptabletdining options.  Sadly, there weren't much.  I thought my safest bet would be the greek fast food restaurant.  I ordered the chicken kebab with the side salad. it came with cucumber sauce.  There was no margarine.  I think it was made with fat free yogurt because I did not feel very satiated.  And i felt naseous and had a slight head ache.  Yup, i was out of ketosis.

When I got home, I had bullet proof tea (tea with 1 tbsp butter, 1 tbsp mtc oil) I started to feel better and lost the naseous feeling.  Then i had 2 eggs later.  I met some friends at Dave and Buster's and had desert with them after some games.  I ate the wings, I like wings because they are 50% and 50% protein.  I had that with butter as my dipping sauce.

What i did was called a protein fast.  Its where you eat nothing but protein and fat to help you get back into ketosis.  You can also do what it called a fat fast.  These things help you get back into ketosis really quickly when you have a slip, in my case, it was an accidental slip.

I have the metal taste in my mouth now, and yes i am back in ketosis! 

Stay away from low fat products because they remove the fat in it and add sugar which can get you out of ketosis.  I love being in ketosis, not very hungry and life is just good.
