After doing Keto for 3 months, there was Thanksgiving. So what does one do for Thanksgiving on Keto? In my case eat whatever one wants and take the next day off work. Seriously. I felt like absolute shit yesterday. Slept most of the day.
But you know what? I’d do it again. Just maybe without the cake for desert. I knew it was likely I was going to feel like shit after all the carbs and sugar. But I choose to do it. I’m much better today if a little tired still. But the coffee is still in the mug ;).
A big part of changing my eating and getting healthier for me is not to treat food like it’s the enemy. It does nothing for me to avoid absolutely everything and be miserable. I still want to enjoy the occasional indulgence and yummy thing. Just not all the time.
