Avoid the Common Long-Term Mistakes
A few small mistakes quietly stall many people. First, hidden sugar and carbs sneak back in: sweetened chai, mandazi at tea break, sodas, and too much fruit. Read what you eat honestly. Second, not enough salt and water. On keto your body sheds water, so light meals plus low salt can leave you tired and headachy. A pinch more salt in food and enough water usually helps. Third, forgetting vegetables. Keto is not just meat and eggs. Load your plate with sukuma, cabbage, spinach and other low-carb veg for fibre and nutrients. Fourth, eating too little because you are scared of oil. Healthy fat keeps you full so you do not raid the shop later. Fifth, comparing your progress to someone else. Bodies differ. Fix these small leaks and your results keep moving instead of stalling.
Takeaway. Most keto plateaus come from hidden sugar, too little salt, and skipping vegetables.
