I think I entered heavy ketosis yesterday and then about around dinner time I noticed I had a few red marks on my lower back. Keto rash is starting for me again, I had the same situation last time after a few weeks of ketosis except this time I know what it is.
I ate about 25 grams worth of net carbs last night because from what I read you can try upping your carbs to get rid of it while still trying to stay in ketosis. It could be that I should be eating more carbs because of the intense workouts I'm doing and aim for light ketosis or it could be that this diet will not work for me due to "ketone sensitivity"
No other diet I've ever tried has come close to being as effective as this but I'm not going to potential suffer though weeks of this painful rash again, if my slight increase in carbs doesn't help I will have to end it like last time.
My goal was to cut around 12lbs more, so I don't need to lose a crazy amount but if I am able to stick on the diet I should be able to do that in 4-5 weeks.
