  • I had some wild caught salmon from Aldi's for dinner tonight. I poached it in Kerrygold butter with garlic and ate it with a side of broccoli (over which I poured some of the garlic butter). It's such a delicious bargain!
  • I buy a brand called Palmetto cheese that comes in little 1 oz. tubs so I can control myself. It has 1 carb each. It's my favorite item to pair with celery!
  • Breakfast was BPC. Lunch was a boiled egg, half a prosciutto panino, which is mozzarella wrapped in prosciutto and rolled up, and some green olives. Dinner was an omelet with diced peppers, tomato, jalapeno Havarti cheese, and a sprinkle of chives. I had a few oz. of smoked pork butt on the side. I have enough carbs left…
  • I'm premenstrual right now, and the scale shows an increase. I was expecting it, as I always retain water before Shark Week, but I certainly wasn't happy to see the number.

This meal worked out to be just a smidge…
  • When I roast broccoli I'm lucky if it ever makes it onto my plate. I've been known to eat most of it right off the roasting pan! And that steak looks phenomenal!
  • Reminds me of Eggs in Purgatory. Looks delicious!
  • Thank you so much for posting this! I have a few friends who first told me about this WOE and they do traditional keto with extremely high fat. They are also all fairly slim, but not too athletic. I was worried about all the fat, and since I'm a nurse, I questioned the high fat for me. I love the way she explains it, too!…
