My friend does this. She is in a big Keto facebook group. I saw Reddit had a keto sub with a boatload of recipes as well.1

Yup...kinda not strick for over a year and likely too much protein and not enough fat but still dropped 40 lb solid. I'm now trying to tune in the macros to "true" keto to get me through the next 15 - 20 lb I want to drop...that spare tire...doooh...it's a challenge to manage the high fat/medium protein macros. Litterally need to eat a half stick of butter straight to get there. Or, a more sane approach is to eat a high quality salad with mixed greens and a liberal dousing of high quality EVOO. That gets ya a protein free entry in your tracker. Cheese has protein, fatty meet has protein, butter on keto bread still has carbs...How do you get the fat without bringing the proteins or carbs for a rides....that is the question...2

2 pcs of deli sliced cheese (muenster is great, but provolone or cheddar will do). Turkey (or lunchmeat of choice) inside using the two pcs of cheese as bread. (no real bread) I actually make 1.5 of these "sandwiches for a nice lunch. You can add mayo for extra fat if desired. Without the mayo and using muenster cheese, according to fitbit this is 2% carbs, 65% fat and 33% protein. Of course, adding mayonnaise will increase the fat. It's my perfect go-to. I hope this helps.1

Four years now.
Just work to not eat more than 50 grams of carbs but finding hidden carbs was a surprise for me.2 -
When I did keto last winter (I’ve since returned to my vegetarian lifestyle), I found shirataki noodles near the vegan/Asian/organic section of markets. They’re 0 carbs, and very versatile.
I enjoy them even now that I’m back on carbs, but I also love all foods.
My keto coworker didn’t like them since they have a distinct aroma (you must rinse before cooking), and they have a similar texture to Al dente noodles.2
