This is key to killing the craving and keeping up with fat intake. Good Luck!

Just keep in mind that the keto diet will eventually become unhealthy so while it is an excellent way to jump-start a diet if you are very overweight/obese, or an extreme athlete, it is basically a transitional diet.
Those complaining of hitting a wall while biking, Hydration, hydration, hydration. I highly recommend keeping your sodium up, some recommend 5000mg per day. Also, a magnesium supplement like calm. I use 200mg per day. This helps with muscle cramping and night tremors.
To be expected in most cases, with the reduction in carbs -- which not only take a good amount of water out of the body with it, but the associate minerals named (also potassium and sodium) which accounts for the imbalanced condition.
