Keto Diet Advice

Hi there, myself and my husband are into our second week of doing keto. We have both lost 8lbs each, my husband has alot more calories per day than i do and i dont have as much freedom due to this so feel like giving up at times. I have looked up the subject but all the info is conflicting, some say calories matter others dont. I am allowed 1400 calories a day but i would like something sweet after my dinner but dont have enough calories. I am sticking to below 20g carbs a day. I am suffering with headaches and nausea and am trying to stick with it. Any help would be really appreciated.

if you get headaches you should up your electrolytes and water intake. stop counting calories and focus on your macros, fat/protein/carbs. check your portion sizes and limit snacks. if you get hungry in between meals, a glass of water or a cheese cube or two helps.

don’t compare yourself to anyone. focus on your journey.

a sugar free jelly and cream or a flummery is delicious for dessert.
