Oddly enough, every time I practice Keto, I am almost the exact opposite; always hungry, cruddy energy but I sleep like a rock.
On low(ish) fat and high carb; easily satiated, decent energy, sleep like a baby (awake a lot but no screaming or poop).
With the above explained, I have not tried A Balanced Diet - perhaps to get the positives of both modes and mitigate or lessen the negatives. Honestly this is the first time, while I am typing this, that I've come up with that angle for myself.
Comments
I've been on keto (on and off) about 50% of the time in the past 3 years.
The worst part is not being able to eat/drink at social events, and dehydration.
The best part is never feeling hungry, stable energy levels throughout the day, and not needing to sleep as much.
I also tend to binge a lot when off keto...

Probably on carbohydrates because that is why everyone here is "on and off".
You can drink at events. Stick to soda water and vodka or diet coke and vodka, etc.
Not needing to sleep as much?
I tend to wake up earlier when on keto (~1 hour).
