Hey all! I eat a pretty basic Keto diet. Typical day is 2 eggs with 2 pieces of regular bacon for my first meal. I sometimes do bullet proof coffee or just coffee with heavy cream! I have at least 2 cups of lettuce greens per day. I have chicken salad or cheese and soprasetta for midday meal if I'm hungry. For dinner I have a piece of meat or chicken with its fat or skin. I also usually have Brocolli, cauliflower or more salad greens. I drink water, coffee, or unsweetened tea. Sometimes I have halo top ice cream. I know some don't find it's Keto- but I'm in the camp of if it fits in my macros. I aim for 70-75 percent fat, 20-25 percent protein, and 5 % carbs. Under 20 NET carbs per day! I'm 45 and if I can do this I know others can! I really started as a way to help my depression and anxiety and they are gone. My chronic pain is gone. I'm spreading the Keto message!

Thanks for the info. I seriously think my weight loss was affected when I stopped eating my eggs and bacon but the smell was bothering my husband. I just tried HaloTop. Yum!

Congratulations on your 40 pound weight loss. You look terrific!! I started the Atkins 20 plan back on June 28th and have lost 2 pounds every week. I was in a plateau for over 2 years where I tried to stick to a low calorie diet but my sweet cravings were out of control. Finally I decided to try high protein high fat and 20 net grams of carbs and this worked. I no longer have sugar cravings and am determined to lose the 25 pounds I still need to lose and I agree keto diets and low carbs is the answer for many of us who just cannot lose the weight. Again, Congratulations on your 40 pound weight loss.

I have been keto for 2 years. I lost 60lbs in the first year. I follow the advice of Dr. Ted Naimen. He has a website called Burn Fat not Sugar and is active on Facebook. I haven't lost anything in quite a while, so I started swapping items from a low carb high fat diet, and picking lower fat items from (PSMF)-protein sparing modified fast and logging everything I eat. I've lost 7lbs in 2 1/2 weeks so far. http://www.burnfatnotsugar.com/
