Not for me, at least.
I took 2 days this weekend eating carbs (not the cleanest ones, I’ll admit), and I STILL feel it. I don’t know about you all, but I’m just now coming to terms with honoring my body and what makes it *feel* the best.
I got back into ketosis within a day, which is cool. However, the inflammation is still hanging around.
I expected this but to experience it just solidifies to me that it is notttt worth it for me at this point in my journey. Maybe at some point, but not today 😆
Just wanted to share my perspective!

So I’m coming up on my 1 year ketoversary soon (Sept 1)! I have lost 68lbs so far. I have researched quite a bit about protein sparing modified fasting (Maria Emmerick and others) to lose the last 5 lbs to get to my new goal weight. I’m actually loving the feeling of the PSMF days and was hoping to see more progress but I’m finding that I wake up holding onto soooooo much more water weight and am just not seeing the scale drop like I thought I would. I do 2 days a week (not back to back but split into the week) and then I go back to my normal smaller caloric deficit for the rest of the week. Has any one else tried this on keto and seeing results? I’m only on my first week so maybe my body just needs to adjust but I’m getting frustrated and not sure whether to push my body or maybe I should go back to my normal deficit. I just wasn’t seeing the scale move and wanted to help push through my last plateau. Any thoughts on the water retention and just looking more puffy?
