Some use cream of some type, or butter in coffees, I drink mine black. Google bullet proof coffee if your interested in trying that out. I am also doing a intermittent fasting 16 hours I don't eat and 8 hours I do. I achieve that by only drinking black coffee for breakfast, and drink water till lunch time. Then I make sure I'm done with my dinner by 7pm. Alcohol I would consider to be a cheat item, nothing wrong with planning a cheat day but doing so regularly can throw off your results.

You can check out some of the odd ball stuff I eat as I have an open diary, if that gives you some ideas great.

Welcome to the group.

Feel free to use milk in coffee if your macros allow it. There are carbs in milk (lactose) so if you are eating ketogenic, you may want to cut back. If you are eating upwards of 100-150g of carbs, you may have room for milk in your diet.

Alcohol is fine, just be aware of calories and carbs. Drinks like beer or a highball with a regulaer soda will have a lot of carbs. A glass of whiskey with ice won't. I don't drink often so I have no idea what the calories are in drinks. I'm not a big help.

The easiest lunch for me is leftovers. I just make a bit extra and I'm all set. If I am in a hurry I'll often have canned fish. Today fpr luch I had a an of mussels. LOL Tomorrow will be leftovers (pork and eggs). I also like pepperoni and cheese, or a bowl of nuts.

I think the easiest thing to do is eat what you did in the past but deconstructed. If you liked sandwiches, bring all the fillings, just more of it. If you like noodles with meat sauce, just eat the meat sauce or put it of zoodles or spaghetti squash. Chicken breast and a salad with no bun. Don't make it too hard to follow.

Good luck.

I agree the advice is great. I am starting on that day as well although I have been watching my carbs this week. I have dinners planned and will do left overs but will need to find some additional recipes for breakfasts on the go.
