What Is Keto + How To Lose Weight With Keto + Easy Food Guide

Welcome To The Ultimate Beginner’s Guide To Keto

Here, I’ll share everything I’ve learned so far about Keto, so you won’t have to do the research yourself.

What Is Keto?

Keto is basically a low-carb diet. It’s also called ketogenic diet, LCHF (Low Carb High Fat) and more.

What’s The Goal?

The goal of doing keto is for your body to enter ketosis. Ketosis is basically a state of your body when it becomes a fat burning machine, due to you eating little to no carbs, while eating high amount of fats for you to supply energy to your body.

Another goal is for you to reduce your sugar and starch intake. The less sugar and starch intake you have on a daily basis, the faster you’ll be in ketosis, and the faster you’ll lose weight.

The Stupid Simple Keto Formula:

Eat High Fats + Moderate Protein + Little To Zero Carbs = Perfect Keto Diet

Know Your Macros

Knowing your macros is probably the most important thing you need to know when you start doing Keto. This serves as your ultimate guide to your everyday eating habits. This serves as the magic number that you should be limiting yourself to go over from.
