I've switched my life over to a low-carb/high-fat eating regimen. It's called the keto (ketogenic) diet. I'm losing weight and feeling better, but it's hard to explain the regimen to people. Humor always helps, so....
Sugar, processed food, and grains are out!
I only craved certain things & the craving lasted about 12 days. Mostly, I was mourning my Almond Joy coffee creamer.
Giving up bread wasn't that hard for me. For people who really, really miss breads, there are low-carb alternatives to loaf bread and mix products like Bisquick.
I initially did an "egg fast" (all eggs all the time with a little mayo and butter) for four days. Lost so much weight, I decided to go whole keto!
I used to do this:
Now, I do this:
And I get to eat a lot of "Fat Bombs". Cream cheese and chocolate and lemon and .... all kinds of fat bombs
And I quit my Almond Joy sugar-laden coffee creamer for Bullet Proof Coffee:
I add whole heavy cream to mine for more flavor and heavier frothing. And I make mine strong so I get a lasting fix.
By the way, if you are curious at all about the Keto diet, there is a Keto Summit starting on Sept 25 and running thru Oct 5th. Check it out. If you want a quick rundown, check out Pinterest for Keto info.
