eating fat is very important, it is a key nutrient. Eggs and meat are high in fat, so you probably have enough, but there are some great sources of fat like homemade bone broth that are amazing in taste and function.My Keto journey since 2017 August has been good.
I keep my carbs to within 20gms a day and don't eat more than one full meal a day.
Im a bit scared of eating huge amounts of fat though. I use good fat as I normally
would...olive oil, Goose fat, butter, ghee, full fat cream for coffee. But I don't
put butter in coffee etc.
My theory has been to keep the fats a little on the low side so the body consumes some of my own
first. Ive dropped at least 3 sizes in both shirts and trousers. About 28 kg.
The biggest hurdle has been getting a good sugar substitute....I use organic erythritol mixed
with monk fruit powder.
My favourite dessert is a chocolate cake made famous by nigella lawson. I use almond flour instead of
regular flour and swerve to sweeten it. It's awesome.
