Keto help

llfretwell

I am beginning the attempt to get into keto today and I'm wondering what kinds of foods are your "staple" foods. I am having bulletproof coffee this morning, then plan on having bacon and eggs for lunch later. I will also be getting groceries later today and would love any advice as to what to add to my grocery list. Thank you so much for any help! This is all so new to me!
