That is completely understandable, but entering keto unprepared and inexperienced as a vegan is difficult if not outright dangerous.
It’s best to start of vegetarian if you lack the theory and/or are inexperienced with keto.
For people that really are inexperienced or just don’t give a shit because reasons I guess, they can just go on meat eatin.
Go vegan if you are sure you can manage it, because it is very difficult to maintain proper ketosis and cook keto food while vegan, not mentioning possible deficits of micro elements.
Regarding my keto, I don’t really remember how little carbs I was eating but I did absolutely cut out all potential high carb sources including high carb veggies like bell peppers. I also weighed shit like crazy, like everything. Especially meat, couldn’t allow myself to go overboard with that.
From what I remember I did try to go deep keto, and the adaptation period was horrible but I managed. It’s just that I only had my scale to truly know if I was in or not.
I also being a student didn’t have a privilage to go even vegetarian. I also am not picky about the food I get given, so my main source of minerals, vitamins and the like were
CW: Specific meat cuts
spoiler
chicken livers and hearts. My main meat cut I was eating was probably bacon, and the most I’ve had were kielbasa. So with the last one, it was rather dirty keto but I’ve had be within budget.
And yes, suplements were out of the question, too expensive.
As I’ve said I only went of keto after deciding it could be unsafe for me, I don’t have a gallbladder and my liver was making bubbling noises. Scary, what else can I say?
Going back to carbs was like getting hit with a dump truck, I felt like shit for a few weeks at least. In hindsight, I shouldn’t have done it when in college because the fallout impacted my grades.
You should try it again, hell I plan to. Check out the Keto Bible or whatever it’s called. In Poland it’s Ketobiblia, big book. Packed with references to studies.
Edit: I forgot to add, my main oil was coconut oil.

So you didn’t actually even check how much carbs you were consuming and only assumed you were on ketosis based on weight loss?
And not eating animals is privileged??? With the meat prices?
Also, supplements have carbs in them so if you’d take them, you’d be off ketosis.
I’m disengaging.
