The 1st year to gain complete brain dysfunction healing I followed a ketogenic lion diet of beef only. Years 2 to the present, I follow a ketogenic carnivore diet including all animal foods, all animal fats. i.e. beef, bison, eggs, pork, seafood, poultry and animal fats of ghee, tallow, lard & duck fat. It is a pleasure and freedom to eat this way after abstaining from all animal foods for 35 years. There is no issue with adherence. I eat what makes me feel fantastic.

I eat 2 large meals within a 4 hour window and fast for 20 hours each day. I get the best of both worlds of the healing power of ketosis with the healing power of feasting at meals. I would adjust eating windows for family/holiday gatherings, bring food with me if need be, order extra meat items and request animal fats at restaurant gatherings. Being prepared is the key to relaxation, enjoyment and success.

Using a ketogenic carnivore diet, I never needed to track carbs. I do not consume dairy, so I had hardly any carbs. I would track protein and fat every few weeks to make sure I was increasing both, in order to not only heal mental illness but also to reverse hypothyroid, Ehlers-Danlos and osteoporosis with protocols I developed. Those physical illnesses require both high protein & high fat to go into remission.
