Keto Diet Food List

Great tips! I already eat cauliflower rice. That stuff is the bomb.

KETO IS AMAZING, I LOVE KETO! Started in March and down almost 40 lbs total just by eating Keto.

My daily routine is the same. A big cup of Bullet Proof Coffee in morning (2tbsp butter, 2 tbsp coconut oil), that'll keep me feeling full until about 3-5pm.

Then I have a raspberry smoothie with Chia seeds, spinach, greens plus mix, 1/2 scoop strawberry protein mix, almond milk.

A later lunch will be either 2 turkey breasts rolled up with 1 can of tuna/mayo/mustard/hot sauce

OR

3 turkey breasts rolled up with 6 pieces of sausage, hot sauce.

Dinner I've been having 10 wings with frank's red hot sauce, sour cream + butter mixture and 6 pieces asparagus. YUM.


Also did well with omelets and eggs/bacon/sausage for dinner.

I stay around 1900 calories, 112g protein, 17g carbs, 161g fat.

If you're just starting a good tip that I always use is to look at the Keto calculators and find your macros and calories.

Then create an excel or google drive sheet doc and enter in your meals calories, net carbs, grams of protein, grams of fat and make sure everything you eat is near your totals you need for the day. Try to stay away from eating anything else if you can, otherwise just beware of what has more fat/more carbs/more protein and eat according to what you need.

I make sure every week before I order my groceries on Amazon Fresh (which is amazing for buying Keto/organic foods!) to make sure all of my macros are correct.

Just do your math first, figure out all the meals and either eat the same or figure out new foods to replace it with, but make sure you calculate everything correctly :) Don't add sugar or lots of carbs after you get into Ketosis, your stomach will be screwed for days!

Also, they say that you can do Keto up to 50g of net carbs per day. It's different for everyone but MOST keto-ers recommend 20g or less. Starting out between 20-30g is good, however, the lower the carbs go, the less hunger and cravings you will feel once your body adjusts. Higher fatty meals, especially, will keep you feel full longer. For instance, just bulletproof coffee with butter and coconut oil keeps me feeling great for almost 6-8 hours. Not too shabby for someone who was hungry every hour before Keto.

For the most part, as long as I have my foods when I do notice myself getting hungry, I never suffer from hunger or cravings.

I don't know if I qualify as keto, but I have gone grain free.

I have bulletproof coffee every morning, which is just coffee blended with butter and coconut oil.

I bought two of Danielle Walker's Against All Grain cookbooks and have been cooking from them. Last night I made her pepperoni pizza sauce on squash noodles, but I made the noodles separate, so my husband could eat them on real spaghetti. Leftovers for lunch!

Just a warning to those attempting to do a ketogenic diet. Be aware that prolonged high protein intake will cause damage your kidneys and prolonged high fat intake will cause insulin resistance and maybe diabetes.

I'm not sure why you need to attempt such a damaging diet when you could just eat vegetables, fruits, tubers, beans, grains, nuts and seeds and lose weight. Much more healthy than ketogenic diet. People with cancer often lose weight too but it doesn't mean that we should recommend it as a solution to weight problems.

I'm not doing it for weight loss. Both of my doctors encourage me to stay grain free. I do eat some beans and potato though. My natural doctor said that most peoples problems are caused by too much grain, that includes things like joint pain. My conventional doctor said that most people are eating way too many carbs and that going grain free is very healthy.

Some school of thought is that it is actually grains causing diabetes. Have you read Grain Brain?

Grains are giving people insulin resistance. It's grains plus high fat diet that does it, not fat on its own without grains.

Anybody grilling up some keto goodies for Memorial Day?

there's more to it than that:

I've Ben doing keto diet for 6 mos and feel tremendous!

How much have you lost?

Keto diet for five months lost 20 pounds and cholesterol numbers good

Making asparagus and steak tonight. I also bought calamari steaks and don't know what I'm going to do with them yet.

I'm allergic to beef and cheese would I still be able to do this diet?

Why does it matter. Your life already sucks.

Do some research. It's a very heatlhy diet.

Keto is high fat, moderate protein, low carb.

Edit to add: Fat does NOT cause insulin resistance...prolonged sugar usage does. Your statement has no basis in fact.

One recipe I came up with for keto is potato salad, which I crave in the summer time......

Instead of potatoes use boiled shrimp, the larger ones, cut in half or thirds depending on size

Shrimp
Celery
Green onion
Red, yellow or orange peppers
Hard boiled eggs

Dressing
Mayo
Salt & pepper
Celery salt

I sometimes add green olives too.

I learned to cook entirely differently after following these recipes for a month. Good eating and I felt really good too. Other family members also enjoyed the new food and that counts for a lot. I like to watch the videos, because I like to look at this guy, no matter what he's saying.

Thank You!

Bollocks to put this mildly. Keto is not Akinson's, it is moderate protein as protein causes insulin. And other waste things with liver and organs.

Your system runs on ketosis, your brain and neurology need healthy fats and good fats, and not extreme fats, as opposed to unhealthy fats, keep your brain healthy as long as you haven't combined glucose or proteins with glucose because then the combined mess makes a kind of gluey mess that isn't good for the brain and can cause memory loss.

Some people do fat bombs, but some of us just use some good oils to cook with and eat the fat in the foods, such as the fat in the cheese, the fat in the cream or half and half which you can use instead of butter in your coffee. And the fat in the eggs and meat. The natural fats.

Its not really about putting an extra heaping amount of fat in things, its about the whole food, the kind of natural diet.

And your body needs this, it does not cause insulin resistance, it helps treat that.

Fat is insulin neutral, does not raise blood sugars or increase insulin and doesn't make you have stored fat. Providing you are doing things in balance and moderation for your metabolism, body size etc.

In fact, the protein is often too high in the accounts given, unless some are handling protein better, keto is moderate protein, not high amounts.

Keto is about keeping insulin and glycemic index low and the fasting period is about not snacking, which is why some people do need that oil in their coffee because it keeps you satisfied, so you're not constantly surging the insulin response but keeping that in a moderate window of time.

Its about consuming vegetables, and I do fruit and berries too, works for me.

As much as you can, leafy greens. But not just leafy greens, squash, zucchine, lots of vegetables. Even the occasional organic corn, because while starch, it doesn't have a huge index for insulin, more medium, so you can do that once in a while. But the greens and other healthy vegetables, tomatoes are good, carrots are good, liver foods, beets are not necessarily considered keto but they're good. Squash is good.

Beans are keto too, though some say not. Check the index and what your body needs, and eat moderate amounts of some things you need.

So keto is vegetables, moderate protein, and fat, but preferably whole fat in foods without adding too much of it.

Keto is worse for your body than veganism.

Stop being retards and learn how to eat.

And stop eating babies ffs.

You can sure tell who the shills are.

Yeah, you.
