Anyone new to Keto I highly recommend reading the following:

i agree with this, i'll peek at those links too, always good to brush up.

for me, sustainable means doable. it's extremely difficult (for me) to stay in ketosis over time. which means someone like me is constantly popping in and out of ketosis, not fun. ugh actually!

30-40 g carbs is right on the edge of where most people dip into ketosis, for me, i had to maintain <20g carbs. i believe i recall that the keto ledge is anywhere between 20g and 80g carbs. peeps have to figure out where they are on that.
