I was just standing in the fridge eyeballing the dates (I just wanted to chew the end off one a little bit) but after much contemplation last night and ordering some digestive enzymes I've conjured up the will to give keto another go.
By all means get these dates out of your fridge!

It's like a drug addict has some heroin on his shelf and now goes around it saying to himself: No, I won't have another shot, no I won't have another shot ... Get everything sugary out, but especially your worst triggers.
Also, maybe it would be better if you started with going Paleo instead of jumping into Keto all at once. I know everyone is different, but a couple of weeks Paleo weans you off stuff more subtle and you have more varieties of foods to eat (as we are programmed to do). I am by far not an expert, so if there are more knowledgeable folks here who want to contradict this approach please go ahead.
