Love spaghetti squash!! Can't wait to see the recipe🍕

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.

Definitely need to try some of these!! Need to go shopping first, hopefully I can score some eggs.

Hot cocoa one has my attention, I kinda miss having a good mocha on occasion. Really tempted to dump a couple of espresso shots into it.

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.

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.

Not intentionally carnivore, seems as of late it just happened that way. I'm not too sure what I can add veggie wise. It feels like it always changes.

I usually add a little onion and fresh garlic to dishes but not a ton though. I was making some asparagus and brussel sprouts or cabbage.

Haven't had those for well over a week now. I was kind curious if I'd feel better without them, maybe increasing fat a little bit.

There has been no change in how I feel and function eating mostly carnivore lately.

Grass fed beef, sometimes steaks or some dish with ground beef. Pork and chicken is in the menu a lot. Tons of bacon, wish I had eggs to go with it but refusing to pay $6-8 for $2 eggs. My chicken friends are tapped out of eggs currently too!

All sorts of cheeses and I discovered pork panko flakes. Main oils I cook with are bacon grease and avocado oil.

The person sitting next to me is just fine with the diet, that's really what gets me. He feels great and I feel like I'm going keel over.

The only thing I eat that he doesn't and it is super rare, if im working and absolutely starving. I got emergency chomps beef sticks in my work bag. But its not always, i take a bite or 2 and then get back on the ice. I use to take bacon or an egg with me but I had many technical issues with that.

I have lmnt or keto chow saltt for electrolytes I keep in my work bag and my daily driver camelback when I'm out and about.

I tried to avoid packaged things like the chomps qnd electrolyte powders cause in a Ken Berry video he was saying to avoid those.. but I can leave a little snack pack in my work gear for months this way. It doesn't work with bacon and eggs.

Got woke up in morning with a video of one of my new skaters getting her first goal of the season.

Just before bed, I got a 2nd video of her 2nd goal in her 2nd game of the day.

Super proud of all the hard work all my little skaters have put in this season, I can't wait to see where their hockey adventures go from here♥️

Yeah I've been doing that, cut out carbs and sugar. Its been months of this, I tried increasing fat but I'm still always hungry and feel like im about to pass out despite eating sometimes every few hours.

I never feel actually full after eating just feel like I might throw up and then hungry again.

I'm missing something, I don't think this is normal, everyone else who is doing keto is happy as a clam.

I have to take ibuprofen all day long for a constant headache. I just feel broken and sick from the diet. Keto flu only last a few weeks not 5 months right?

I will talk to my doc about checking my magnesium. I didn't see it on any of my tests. They did a mess of teats on me besides the metabolic one.

I was in the ER for kidney stones last month no major red flags on any of my blood work, just some were a bit more elevated than normal. Na and K are normal, glucose is higher not sure why that's suddenly changed.

It just seems odd that the person sitting next to me is fine but everything #keto is "supposed to" help with has gotten so much worse.

I'm seriously questioning if this is the right thing for my body, if my goal was losing weight I'd probably call it a win. But I was under the impression it would help asthma, ADHD, and pain.

I'm also starting to get more confused about what it is I cut out of my diet that is causing all the issues.

I drink an electrolyte drink with apple cider vinegar, lemon juice and keto chow essential electrolytes throughout the day. If I leave during the day I take a big bottle of that with me but if I'm gone longer than expected I use keto chows saltt packets.

I have looked at lmnt packets but haven't tried it yet. Wanted to use up the Saltt packets first.

Well I will give this #askdocs a shot, cause I'm out of ideas at this point.

I've been doing keto since October and it's just been miserable for me... Better 1/2 is doing great.

I haven't had a day without a headache/migraine since day 1, I've never had an issue with daily headaches/ migraines before.

ADHD is completely out of control and I feel pretty dysfunctional. I can't hardly focus enough to put this post together.

I constantly feel dehydrated and hungry, I usually wake up from a dead sleep crazy hungry. I'm at the point of wanting to give up on this because I'm feeling so much worse than ever before and I'm scared cause it feels like my body is just falling apart.
