looks tasty thanks for sharing. I personally probably add some cheese in there as well.

These two, if you are going for Keto, too much protein can prevent you from entering or knock you out if you are in ketosis. Your glucose levels could be raised by consuming too much proteins which means your body will slow down or stop ketone production entirely.

Will try this, I usually just wrap tightly in foil and I'll have a little bit a brown.

Sorry no do not have a good recipe to recommend it was just the first thing I thought of then I remembered that crab cakes have breading so I Googled "low carb crab cakes" and there are recipes out there. I will have to try soon.

Be sure to know how to tell when an avocado is ripe and ready to eat. It should be soft but not too mushy. If it is still hard and brighter green leave it out and wait for it to get a little softer and a darker brown color. The skin will also smooth out a little. I made the mistake the very first time I made guacamole of…

I went to Italy, France, and Spain this past fall and ate gelato about 2 times a day (some times 3) but with all the walking I did I lost weight! OP, this is definitely not good advise to follow lol.

Are you able to do bite size meat like shrimp? Also, bacon and pepperoni have a good amount of protein (still higher fat though). And maybe try recipes where the meat "crumbles" like low carb crab cakes or meat loaf.

This caught my eye because I love traveling internationally and I'm planning some upcoming trips at this very moment. I haven't done any trips while doing keto but what I would say to you is the best way to have control over what you eat is to go to a grocery store and prepare your foods. This may be hard depending on…

Some weeks I'll drop weight steadily. Some weeks I'll completely stall even if I'm eating the exact same foods and doing the exact same workout routines and there is no menstruation in play either. For the week or two that I stall, I usually drop a significant amount of weight. I'm guessing you're just experiencing the…

I used to hate them until I started getting REALLY (perhaps overly?) into guacamole pre-LCHF. Now doing keto, I eat at least one full avocado daily, usually split up over the course of two means. Great in salads and wraps.
-
Very hard to say because I love chocolate and crave it all the time even before I started LCHF. But I have been wanting chocolate like crazy. I can't tell if it's increased cravings or just because I haven't been satisfying the cravings per usual.

The first time I did keto it took only 3-4 days to get into ketosis and then by day 6 I had very high ketone levels. I did keto for about 3 weeks and knocked myself out after about 2 weeks of traveling and making poor food decisions. It took a very long time, over a week for me to get back in. I was eating less than 40 g…

...wondering how people left off the holy grail...AVOCADOS!

I tried convincing my mother to follow a LCHF diet even if it's not Keto like mine but after consulting her doctor, her doctor advised that she does LCHP and still keep fat at a low due to congenital heart issues she has. I have weekly check ins with her asking how her diet is going, she always gets back to me with the…

My body is not in keto unless I'm at 33 g of Net carbs per day or less so about 50 g for those counting total carbs assuming I'm eating about 17 g of fiber.

I drink my BP coffee with 1 tbs MCT oil, 1 tbs grass fed butter, 1 tbs coffee creamer, stevia sweetener, and cinnamon. Tastes great, the only thing that is a little "off" meaning not like my pre-LCHF coffee is the taste of the stevia. I'm still getting used to the taste of that as opposed to sugar. But the butter and oil…

You could make spaghetti but make one set of traditional noodles and one set of zoodles for yourself if you wanted. The leg work in spaghetti is the sauce so it should be easy to have two separate batches.

During the week "hey this isn't really all that bad and the foods I'm eating are so delicious." By the weekend it sucks because I get lazy (it's a miracle if I get out of my PJs) which usually means I have run out of groceries and the food I have prepped and don't feel like going to the store and just want to order pizza.…

Breakfast: Bulletproof TEA...I normally do coffee but I ran out so I looked up a recipe for tea and tried it but wasn't thrilled so only drank half. Plus 2 pieces of bacon and 2 eggs. Lunch: Turkey and Mushroom "Casserole" substitute spaghetti for zoodles. I say "casserole" because it the first time I ever made it and I…

I haven't measured myself at all (but I just ordered a tape measure on Amazon). I have been doing LCHF since the end of February (I messed up twice being out of town travelling and making poor food decisions). All in all I have lost 17 pounds, I know I lost a lot of water and not all of it was fat. Yes I have noticed a…

I'm doing keto so I lose a steady amount of weight per week but from day to day it's either all other the place or there's no change for a few days and then a change all at once. I notice for me I'll be like this: Day 1: 148.4 Day 2: 148.4 - consistent Day 3: 146.8 - down <2 Day 4: 147.2 - up <1 Day 5: 147.2 - consistent…

You can check my diary but I eat at least one whole avocado per day (usually half for lunch and half at dinner), 2-4 pieces of bacon (breakfast and then in low carb wraps), eggs, salad dressing with a lot of fat (Caesar dressing is great for this), cheese and pepperoni snacks when needed, and fat bombs if I have enough…
-
I have no issue with fiber. I'm eat about 45-50 g of carbs and 15-20 g of it coming from fiber. I'll usually have sauteed peppers and onions with my food or I've also been making low carb wraps that have baby spinach, shredded carrots, peppers, onions, and avocado (plus chicken, bacon, and dressing). Check my diary for…

Been doing Bulletproof coffee and ran out of k-cups so I tried Bulletproof tea. I looked up recipes but I can't finish drinking it. The BC works because the coffee taste is so strong that it overpowers that taste of butter, oils, etc. Will buy more coffee tonight.

Starting weight after initial water loss is 147.2 lb Goal weight is 135 lb Starting body fat is 25% It has actually been quite easy to adjust and I haven't experience any of the keto flu. Ketodietapp.com has been a great resource…

^^This, don't have the time or energy or enough food in my fridge to do this without me dying. Good luck.

I have a FT4 and as others have mentioned, it's not great for any sort of interval training or other activity where your heart rate is not steady. I use it during my cross-training workouts even though I know the numbers are inflated more so to compare one workout to another; sort of a measure of how much effort I put in…

btw, I love the idea of mini challenges. Not sure if it's something OP or other posters on here do regularly but I would love to see more of them :smile:
