Since there are 4 calories in a gram of carbs, that's somewhere below 80-200 calories a day, or usually 5-10% for a carb macro percentage. Moat keto'ers start with carbs under 20-50g a day. You can try a TDEE keto calculator to help you start your macro goals: In a 2000-cal day, up to 50 should fit just fine. 10% of your calories from net carbs is a handy rule of thumb, which means even if you’re only eating 1200 cals/day you could have 30 net carbs. After that, though, you have more of a cushion when it comes to maintaining it. Going really low for the first few days can help you get into ketosis faster (and seriously: add sodium to keep your electrolytes up or you’ll feel like grim death). Mostly agree, but you don’t need to be THAT low on net carbs, especially not if you’re active. Carb Manager is a decent one.įigure out your macros. Track everything!! You don't have to track forever, but it's a good idea to track at first just to get an idea of what you've been eating, what has carbs in it etc. Just eat low carb options and stay under 20-25 NET carbs. Don't worry too much about going over calories.
