Great article. Thank you. I have a couple of questions though.

1. My understanding of Keto (In layman's terms), is that it's delicate balance between fed and starving. Where fat loss occurs but muscle loss does not. While fasting between 16-20 hours a day.. How do you prevent your body from entering starvation mode and consuming muscle mass?

2. If practicing a low cal/keto diet such as Ideal Protein (I am on an alternate of IP)...Is it possible to go out...have a meal and a few drinks.. and then fast for 12-16 hours before jumping right back on the diet? Will this get me back into ketosis faster than the week it usually takes?
