I make a batch of Freezer Breakfast Burritos every Sunday and heat one up in the microwave each morning (or skillet if I have time to watch it.) This week I followed this recipe: http://tone-and-tighten.com/2013/08/frozen-healthy-breakfast-burritos-recipe.html But there are endless varieties available online.

That's cryogenics, but my dad has asked me how long until I become demolition man.

I use cryotherapy to aid in recovery after long runs and to manage swelling and inflammation. In the past few weeks, I have noticed that the waiting room is FILLED with women using the therapy sessions to lose weight. There must have been an article or television show that hyped weight loss because my center does not…

The volume of the containers is easily found with a basic google search and a combination of gladware/ziploc tupperware is a cheap swap. I personally prefer a food scale as measuring by weight is more accurate and if you buy a scale that tares you can measure your entire meal in the same dish/plate.

I avoid snacking by not keeping my typical "snack" foods in the house. I would love a stack of Wheat Thins or Crackers to mindlessly eat after dinner. Instead, I have plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables ready as snack alternatives. If I am truly hungry, a ripe honeycrisp apple will satisfy my appetite and I can easily…

Maybe this is TMI, but my menstrual cycles stopped and blood work showed very low leptin levels. However, after a week of unrestricted food (and carbs) followed by five days of 40/30/30, I am down five pounds and ketostix still show a faint amount of ketones. My leptin levels were tested this morning and I am back in a…

The syrups are good, but they are typically just splenda and water with flavor and a thickening agent added. Mrs. Butterworth's sugar free syrup tastes better and doesn't break the bank both calorie wise (20 cal per serving) and price (about $1 less at my store.) As for salad dressings, I would prefer to spend my money on…

Bottled Green Tea is often sweetened and the calories come from the sweetener (honey, sugar, etc) not from the actual tea. Brewed green tea would have less than 5 calories, if any. My favorite way to cold brew green tea is this recipe - http://www.oneingredientchef.com/cold-brewed-green-tea/ . (I'm not too interested in…

Marscapone cheese which is even more delicious than cream cheese has 0.6 carbs per ounce.

Bacon fat or grass fed ghee

An egg will be enough glue to hold it and it will give you more time to let the chicken cook before the spices burn.

I second Dymatize - I love all of their flavors but the Elite Gourmet Swiss Chocolate is my current favorite. It has 6 net carbs and zero sugar alcohols. My favorite bar is any of the Epic Bars. They are all around 6 net carbs, no sugar alcohols and I can pronounce every ingredient. I was cautious at first - but they are…

I love my Jawbone up 24/7 wearable. It tracks my sleep, daily steps and syncs all data with MFP. I love the daily challenges it includes (ie - go to bed by x time, drink 10 glasses of water today, finish 5,000 steps by 2pm, etc.) It also has a smart alarm that wakes me up when I'm in a lighter sleep. I'm sure a fitbit does…

I took the bait and bought some MCT oil to see what the fuss was all about. I did not notice any difference than TJ's Coconut Oil in my daily butter coffee.

I love all of Caveman Keto's lunch ideas, but at the moment, I'm really enjoying his Cheesy Chicken Casserole here.

Hi, I'm Lauren and I am proof that CiCo does not work for everyone. I lost 20 pounds a year ago on Keto and gained it all back (and then some) on a very strict 250 calorie per day deficit. I went back to my tried and true keto diet and use this site for macros - not necessarily calories. Feel free to look through my diary,…

I love Caveman Keto's Cheesy Chicken Caserole Link here. But I swap out a can of drained Rotel for the salsa and instead of taco seasoning, I use the first carb free spice mix I grab from my pantry.
