I’m only in day 9. I track all that I eat. I love to cook so variety is good for me. I tend to plan my meals for 1-2 days out. I try to have a reasonable (keto) ratio for carbs/fats/protein at each meal. For me measuring my ketones is a good habit 2/day. Also, Look at a couple of recipes for “fat bombs” if you are not meeting your required fat allowance. I’ve tried a couple of Dr Axe’s recipes. YUMMY! Hope this helps but I’m still a true novice! 😊

Fat isn't so much a goal as it is a tool to keep you full. You don't need to meet it if you aren't hungry.

cameronmelanie13d94a I agree with Celtic. But if you want more fat, try avacado. Just eat fats you like, heavy oils in salad dressings, etc. Whole cream in coffee. It’s to your preference.

What I've been told is
Protein is a goal
Carbs are a limit
Fats are a lever
I'm super new too started Feb 19 but I'm learning lol

When I turned 40 in 2016 I told my husband that I didn’t want to be 40 and fat 😔. Did research, consulted with a bariatric surgeon who specializes in food addiction (mainly carbs/sugar). He advised that I follow a ketogenic diet (gave me a simplistic meal plan to follow). I’ve been following it for a 1.5 years and down almost 60 lbs. I’ve plateaued for about four months, but am making small adjustments and seeing results. I didn’t have bariatric surgery (wasn’t qualified) I see this bariatric doctor once a month (he calls it AA for overweight people). With his help, guidance and support, I’ve finally come to terms that I have an addiction to carbs/sugar. It’s no different than drugs/alcohol addiction, just a different drug. For the record, I had annual physical and my numbers (good/badcholesterol, glucose, etc.) are 🔥 🙌🏼
