If i’m hitting my daily 20 net carbs and my daily fat intake but not hitting my protein enough (maybe hitting half what i need), will I still be in ketosis / burn fat & drop weight?

Hit your protein! It’s essential: carbs are a limit, protein is a target, and the fat is there to satiate.

Go a bit over w/protein if you must.

Oh okay, i see. I always thought fat was the target and protein was meant to be moderate.

What do you mean hitting your fat intake? You should be minimizing carbs, maxing protein, and eating fat as needed. There's no required amount of fat on keto.

EY1 is spot on! I suggest reading the resources on /r/keto for all the ins and outs

Use a macro calculator (google it) to figure out what you need, it’s different for everyone. Should be 5% of cal intake is carbs, 20% protein, 70% fat. Also get Keto test strips so you know if you’re in ketosis. Can get on Amazon.

You shouldn't be following %s if you're doing keto, carbs should be less than 20g net and you need to hit your min protein...fat is just a filler. Also, test strips are a waste of money.

like

You must be way over your fat needs if protein is low, carbs are on point and calories are on point. Drop fat intake and up protein by switching to leaner proteins for 1 meal & 1 snack per day

One of the things that my ADD coach helped me with was realizing that I wasn’t prioritizing activities that help me feel recharged. Between work and home responsibilities, I was just burnt out and overwhelmed.

So now when I start to get burned out I focus on reducing auditory overwhelm, getting outside, listen to music, get comfortable, read a fun book, etc.

As we’re heading into the weekend, what are some things you do to recharge and give yourself a break?

Had my 1:1 with my People Lead yesterday to prepare for talent discussions. Said I had a great year - but need to work on being consistent. She said when I’m engaged it’s great but need to keep it going. I’ve mentioned my ADHD previously but I’m sure she doesn’t know all the components of what that means. We’ve had org issues - no clear role descriptions or expectations. Yes I do have a hard time staying engaged (and I’m medicated - Vyvance in the am, dextroamphetamine at noon). Thoughts?
