Carrots, onions, and peppers are okay in moderation, but if you're going to be scarfing down carrots, they'll add up quickly.
This has a nice beginner guide about what foods are good and bad for keto
Made some keto fried chicken with pork rinds
Try making mozzarella sticks like that. So good.
Ooo will do
damn, y'all giving me ideas
Looks amazing @StevePines -WA 👍
That looks good
Good news guys, I’m officially in ketosis now
I’ve replaced any breading or flour with almond flour. I use it to make chicken cutlets and a Parmesan crust for salmon and whatnot.
How does this make sense? Zero total carbs but 1 gram of sugar?
Erythritol is a sugar alcohol so it is technically a sugar but not processed in the same way as a carbohydrate so it is simultaneously a sugar but not a carb
@BigBadSaxon - ID And what does that mean if you are on Keto? Can you eat 8 grams of that in one day?
They use sugar alcohol in sugar free gum but it still has carbs
Use of sugar alcohol on keto is a hotly debated subject and how it relates to keto still isnt completely clear- but if your carbs are at 8g, you're fine. You're in ketosis.
Different sugar alcohols may or may not have carbs, erythritol was just one example
I count them as half a carb. I still avoid them due to gas issues.
If you are on low or no carb diets, but are really craving a snack like popcorn or chips, look into fried pork skins, aka chicharrones.
I particularly like the bbq flavor.
It’s an acquired taste, but if you can stomach it, canned/tinned salmon, tuna, mackerel, sardines, are also great for low/no carb
Just make sure the good stuff is kept in olive oil, the lower quality brands use god knows what, vegetable oils
Make sure to get plenty of sodium, magnesium, and potassium while doing keto.
I used to supplement with a mag/calc/zinc mixture supplement, I just have magnesium rn but I'd recommend getting that mixture it's really convenient. When I run out I'm gonna switch back over to that

I know
Some word docs I made. ones worth your time and the second really isn't to be honest.
