How Many Carb Should You Actually Be Eating?
When you're first starting keto, your main goal will be to lower your carb intake to a point where your body goes into ketosis.

For some women you make get a surge of increased energy, a clearing of brain fog and then the absence of cravings that they may have once battled before.
I know… SHOCKING!

But seriously it DOES happen… for some women but not for all!
I mean it would be nice if everyone experienced this initially, but instead of having a ton of energy some women go through a lethargic period instead.
So Back To Those Carbs… How Much Can You Have?

Well the formula for calculating how many carbs you can eat is actually pretty simple.
You'll want to calculate your macros so that approximately 70 % of your calories come from fat, 25 % of your calories come from protein and 5 % of your calories come from carbs.
So here's how that would look…

On a 1,200 calorie diet, that would be about 15 net carbs, 93
grams of fat and 75 grams of protein.
Now the truth is, many women who do keto don't really bother to track calories, except with how it impacts their macros.
So you could enjoy a 2,500 calorie day of meals and keep your ketosis levels in check just by simply managing your macros!
What Happens If I Mess Up?

Some women worry that if they mess up , they'll get knocked out of ketosis.
And let me tell ya… this DOES happen and most of the time it happens to women who are not really counting their carbs!
Here's the thing about carbs… if you're doing strict keto then you need to be extremely careful of the foods you eat because carbs can sneak up on you!
You can find hidden carbs in the most simple foods too! Such as seasoning… yes SEASONINGS!
They can be LOADED with carbs!
Not sure what foods to eat?

Try to make sure that when you're choosing carbs, that you choose healthy ones and not ones that don't have any nutritional value!
