@rjwilliams I tried doing Keto a few years ago.
I just couldn’t get beyond having fatty foods especially for breakfast.
Too much meat and fat makes me feel sick.
Have you ever had any issues with eating lots of meat etc. ?

I love my breakfast cereal and can't stand the thought of fatty food for breakfast like you. So I made my own mix of walnuts, pecans, flax seeds, pysllium, hemp hearts, shredded coconut and a low carb seed mix. Only 3 grams carbs per 50 grams.

Basically I am eating what I used to, and substituting the carbs with alternatives., such a cauliflower rice, stir fried vegetables, low carb bread (5 grams 2 slices) and zucchini noodles

I eat a lot of vegetables, but only low carb. No potatoes, corn, carrots and pumpkin. I fill my plate with moderate amount of meat, cauliflower, broccoli, grilled capsicum/ zucchini, and beans.

I've lost 4 kilos in 2 months and have never felt better.

I track everything in Carb Manager, and to be quite honest, I am surprised at how much fat is in the foods I eat, now that I have switched to full cream milk, cream and yogurt. No need to add more. I still cut it off my meat.

I used to be hungry ALL the time.
Not now. I never feel hungry and nolonger have cravings
