Health is wealth…I’m well overdue a re-think. Leaning towards full keto. Any useful tips will be rewarded with zaps!? 🥩 🥛 🧈 🍳

I don't follow a particular diet. But what seems to work for me is big meals, max 2x/day, sometimes up to 72h fasts, big focus on protein and good fats.
Grass fed steak, eggs, sourdough, avocados, ghee, coconut oil, butter, Greek yoghurt, honey, nuts & blueberries make up the majority of my calorie intake
And you feel good on this? Was it easy to switch? I’m 7 months pregnant and it’s been really tough but I think it’s mainly due to my diet; I eat a lot of animal products but also too much sugar, carbs and plants. My energy is so low and a few other symptoms of ill health and I know it’s diet.
Yes, I definitely feel better than on 2-3 meals per day. More clarity and energy in general, less time spent on prepping/cooking/eating/cleaning, less time the body has to spend on processing the food eaten, etc. But it was not a conscious choice nor a sudden change, I gravitated towards that sort of a routine naturally and just embraced it.
Sounds like my ideal. I hate thinking about, planning, cooking food. I love just eating salmon, chicken or steak with nothing else but it’s the whole culture of food that I struggle with. Will just have to be stricter with myself and not be influenced. Thanks again! Good luck with your onward journey!! 🙏🧡
If you’re on blood pressure or diabetes meds you WILL have to taper them in short order. Let your Dr. know so he can help you deprescribe them.
Add salt 🧂 to the eggs, meat, bacon etc. to counteract the water and electrolyte loss especially for the first few weeks.
Expect some energy level changes for a few weeks as your body ramps up fat burning enzymes and lowers carb burning enzymes.
If you eat vegetables keep them green and above ground varieties.

If you can do dairy make it full fat(heavy cream, yogurt, aged hard cheese).
