Eating seafood occasionally, not like I use to though. I'm planning on getting some more fish, had mahi mahi recently and I loved it! I do have tuna to snack on I haven't been consuming as much of in the last few weeks.

I have keto chow magnesium drops, but stopped using cause the daily minerals claim to have enough of it. I will look up the Lugolls for sure!

The packets are reserved for mainly emergency situations at the rink. It gets me home and out of the back of an ambulance potentially. My main thing with them is weight and how much it takes up in my bags. Little Ziploc vs a 6pack sized cooler is a big deal with my all my other gear.

You have any recommendations for veggie dishes that would be keto friendly? Like I said the veggies situation has been really confusing at times. I see keto recipes but you look close and they have stuff you're not supposed to have. I definitely have paralysis when it comes to cooking veggies.

I should probably give you a little background on work. It might be a bit confusing hearing "rink days" and whatnot.

I'm a skating instructor/hockey/ goalie coach and off ice trainer by trade, I'm a private contractor in a sense. My job is extremely physically demanding and sometimes I sweat more than my skaters depending on what we do. Some days I pack in as many as 3 hockey bags of gear depending on what I have scheduled, no onsite storage for me.

I have tried to lighten my load as much as possible without sacrificing safety for my skates of myself. I unfortunately have had some mishaps switching to keto and continuing my workload.

My favorite incident was the rink dog stole a Ziploc of bacon and cheese from my bag, just enough of a gap in the zipper for her nose to get in was all it took 😂 and she looked adorably guilty too... She knew.

I was given some smoked meat (dude is full on carnivore) that day by her owner, and a parent brought me a heavy cream latte. Other times im not so lucky though, some days I skate harder than expected and consume everything hours before I get to leave. Those packets of crap have saved me a couple times in a pinch.

I had collapsed 2x on ice and had a bad episode of heat exhaustion and super dehydrated when I started keto. After the 3rd Incident I got the electrolyte powder and a pack of the beef sticks. My emergency pack also includes tea and some packets of powdered bone broth in a freezer bag. I also keep 2 packets of sugar for a couple of diabetic type 1 skaters of they crash (parents can administer those)

Okay so it wasn't a short back story...😳

If you have any suggestions for shelf stable options that can just live in my main work bag please let me know. This is all new territory for me.

Beef Jerky might be an option

Thought about jerky, I will have to look for some little snack packs.

Not ready to dive down the rabbit hole of making my own just yet.
