Outside of dousing everything in MCT oil, how do you guys get the remainder of your fats each day? I think I'm struggling in this area

So I usually just try to make sure I’m getting the appropriate amount of protein and am keeping under my net carb limit. Is it necessary to hit your fat macros if you’re already full/satisfied? What’s the downside if you don’t? My thought is that you would just burn your stored fat quicker.

Mct oil is dangerous in that it can take you over the top too quick.

I do coffee three times a day with heavy cream. Salmon, cream cheese on a keto toast.

And usually lamb chops

Expanding on C1 - if you aren’t getting above 70% of your calories from fat you will not hit ketosis. If you’re not hitting the macros for fat, your body will burn protein, which turns into glucose for energy - you may as well be eating sugar.

Also, your diet should predominately be cheese honestly, it’s extremely hard (maybe even impossible) to hit the exact macros without it.

If my fat macros are low for the day, I’ll shoot tbsp’s of EVOO, coconut oil, etc.

like

Cheese (fresh mozz, dips with veggies), pepperoni/salami, other fatty meats (steak, burgers etc), guacamole. But without adding mct oil/coconut oil to coffee it would be hard

If your don’t have the fat then your body will use protein for fuel. This will result in dangerous muscle loss. Fat is really important as it is the fuel. You need to teach your body to use the reserve fat and the intake. This is one of the the things folks don’t understand and how keto can become dangerous

Thanks for all the insight everyone!

Make sense. Thanks for the insight!

Avocado, cheese, olive oil

Next evolution of conventionalism. It’s the meat, any meat, protein not vegetarian sourced. High Glycation and oxidation and high a1c and confounders of carb centric diets be ignored.

Tell me how TF this makes sense:

-Down 4.4 lbs/1 day

GM all, I need help big time. I started my weight loss journey about three weeks ago and lost 7 pounds thus far but cutting alcohol and removing added sugar and trying to eat healthy and tracking calories. I need to loose 10 more pounds at least. I want to try Keto, what do I do ? I do HIIT 30mn a day / 5 days a week.

I’ve hit a plateau on the keto diet (no weight loss in 3 months). So in addition to walking 5 miles a day (been doing this since month 2), on Sunday I started a Beachbody HIIT workout with weights (21 day fix real time). It’s 30 min workout daily and I’m two workouts in and I can barely move. Also, the muscle cramps are for real! Drinking about 80 ounces of water a day and I soaked in an Epsom salt bath last night, any other tips?
