    Sorry if covered already, but has anyone tried doing strictly Carnivore diet? I'm on week 3 and I've never felt better.

    Unbun keto rolls

    Woodman’s has them in the frozen breads. Just made a breakfast sandwich and they are pretty solid. Don’t add anything but 100% do not take anything away.

    Gotta limit myself on the to maybe 1/day. Plus they’re $8 for 4.

    Fun fact. You can put on 8.4 lbs during a “ski weekend” in Northern Michigan for 3 days eating and drinking whatever you want. Woof.

    I think I have the keto flu. Last night I started to feel like absolute ass. My entire body is sore, my head is killing me, I'm cold, and I have a cough...

    That, or I've got a real sickness.

    Started doing a chocolate whey and peanut butter powder shake this morning. 1 cup unsweetened almond milk. I had some chocolate protein powder, which has 4 net carbs so the 4 from the PB and 1 from almond milk made it 9 net. Picking up some isopure zero to cut that to 5. Might cut the PB at some point too.
    5g net carbs, 220 calories, 4.5g fat, 31g protein.
    I had been taking in 6g net carbs, 460 cal 42g fat, 25.5g protein each morning with sausage and eggs.

    I've done more than a full week of 20/4 IF and I can feel the results.

    More consistent energy levels. My appetite during the day is completely gone. Almost have to force myself to eat. No cravings whatsoever.

    Hello fellow Keto bros, getting back at it. Going to try and lose about 20-25 pounds in the next 3 months. I have no idea if I’ll be able to do it. It will be 10-15 pounds less than my lowest weight and a weight I can’t seem to ever get under.

    I have a cheap 8" one.

    I use 1 egg beaten and mixed with 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1 tbsp almond flour, and a little s&p. Mix in 1/2 cup of shredded cheese. Get the waffle iron hot. Put a little shredded cheese directly on the bottom half of the waffle iron and let it melt a little, then spread the batter over it and close the lid. When it stops steaming, flip it and do with same with the cheese directly on the waffle iron on the other side. Will have two crispy sides.

    Mildly annoyed by MyFitnessPal. I either have to create new foods or mentally note to adjust for net vs total carbs on a bunch of foods.

    I never used to like almonds. They were always something I’d pick out of the mixed nuts. But now. I’ve caught feelings.
    2g net carbs for a 1/4 cup is something I can fuck with.

    I’m actually doing better at home because I fell down with fast food, which will be limited by not leaving as much. Stock your house properly for success, devine

    My issue has been calories. I’m eating mostly keto foods, but more of it because I’m in the kitchen a lot. Work kept me away for 10 hours a day.

    Figuring out that keto is a lot more enjoyable and sustainable when you’re not at work/commuting 16 hours a day. Bc I’m bored and wanting to contribute more to this thread, here’s a list of some meals I’ve either made or will in the next week or so. I hate the monotony of avos, eggs, ground beef etc

    meals
    Corned beef and cabbage
    Kielbasa and sauerkraut (wegmans has great/clean private label kielbasa. Also make your own sauerkraut, it’s fool proof and is unpasteurized=Gut fauna)
    Chicken Thai curry w/ coconut milk
    Baked steelhead/sockeye salmon (stupid Easy)
    Reverse sear strips/ribeyes
    Bolognese w/ grass fed beef, basil, ricotta/mozzarella
    Braised oxtail (dat collagen...)
    Turnip greens with bacon & apple cider vinegar
    Fried eggs with sesame oil & sriracha
    Scrambled eggs with scallion & ricotta or sour cream
    Caesar salad with grilled chx breast, anchovies, parm

    snacks
    Caramelized onion dip (sour cream and mayo, limit the onions bc they go a long way and are carb dense. Add some AC vinegar)
    Red pepper dip
    Smoked salmon dip w/capers and red onion
    Guac (I add celery salt and cumin)

    I also bought some keto friendly cauliflower pizza crust to put in the freezer. Not because I ever plan on actually making it, but it will keep me from phoning for delivery if it ever gets to that point

    I was thinking of using it as a spread for roast beef sandwiches. Not many chips out there other than Quest chips.
