I'm going to decrease my fat intake a bit and up the amount of carbs I'm getting from fruit. I didn't realize how stressful it is for your brain to run on purely ketones. I haven't been following my diet for the past few days. I just kind of broke after I had some sushi with rice and a beer. My glucose starved brain just forgot how wonderful it was to be run on carbohydrates so I just caved. My willpower was gone and I stuffed my self with beer, cookies, and potato chips.
Art Devany doesn't recommend a very high fat diet for reasons I don't want to explain (I would post the link but it's a paid site and you have to be a member). But basically, living purely off of fat and protein isn't good for the long term. You have to cycle cycle in carbohydrates so you don't lose all semblance of control.
So, yeah. Time for more carbs in my severely restricted diet.
