    I assumed hummus has a lot of carbs due to the chick peas. Guess I need to look into that.

    celery and humus, eggs, almonds, peanut butter, OHH my favorite is this Plain yogurt/1 tablespoon of cocoa, a pack of stevia, a tablespoon of coconut, a tablespoon of powdered peanut butter (and sometime chia and/or full on peanut butter) mix it up ... and man on man.. like pudding

    Deli meats, string cheese or single serve packets, slim jims, eggs, eggs, eggs, ricotta cheese, avocado, coconut oil and butter. Spinach, mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower. Chicken with skins (think thighs, wings and breasts, with skin), Beef, Fish. Heavy whipping cream, nuts, almond meal, peanut butter, ground flax seeds, chia seeds. It's hard to really shift from the low fat to high, so maybe following a plan would help? If you google "ketogenic meal plan" you will probably come up with some good ideas.

    Good Luck!

    I thought so too because chic peas do have a lot of carbs....but the one I had today was 4 carbs for 2 tablespoons. Not bad with plain pork rinds :smile:

    Can I just say: why can't fat bombs magically appear in the freezer? I love those little suckers for dessert.

    Oh, I forgot about pumpkin seeds!

    Eggs, generally, or cheese sticks. Macadamia nuts or pecans, but less often.

    Chia seeds, I keep a bunch of them in my desk drawer at work and will have a spoonful from time to time. Omega-3's baby!

    Mostly cheese, tbh.

    Quarts of Heavy cream. I use at least 1.5 cups of heavy cream/day.

    • pate
    • brie cheese (slice it up and use it as a cracker with pate on top)
    • baby spinach (throw handfuls into just about anything - omelette, curry, casserole, stir fry, quiche, stroganoff etc)
    • microwaved salami/pepperoni (it goes crispy like a cracker)
    • boiled eggs (store them in the fridge door for a quick snack, put them with soup or salad)
    • zucchini egg slice (like a crustless quiche -good cold or warm)
    • good quality sausages without fillers
    • meatballs
    • sour cream - heavy cream upsets my stomach so sour cream is my go to substitute
    • coconut milk/cream for curries
    • cooked chicken legs or wings
    • avocado every day

    What I do is cook 2 or 3 dishes when I'm in the mood to cook and we eat them until they run out then repeat the process.

    You could also freeze some in meal sized containers for when you couldn't be bothered cooking.

    Ok, so I'm not smart enough to figure out what a fat bomb is... but a peanut butter one sounds good. Anyone care to share a recipe or how to make them?

    1/2 cup coconut oil(unrefined gives that nice coconut flavor)
    1/4 cup butter( i personally like the salted)
    4 tbs nut butter(i use almond butter)
    4 tbs cocoa unsweetened
    1 pk splenda- more or less to taste

    i use a 2 cup measuring cup- microwave to melt- stir- pour into molds- & freeze

    be warned they are good LOLOL

    I use the recipe from a site called 'screwed on straight' they really help me to get to my fat macro some days and also feel like a real treat, so it's a win win.....but, as fluderbye says, they are good!!!!

    Enjoy!
