Ratios To Use For Every Meal!


@fatforweightloss on instagram says, "Instead of thinking about all the foods that you can't eat, it's important to think about all the foods that you CAN eat. Simply shifting your mindset to enable positivity will be a huge part of your success, and will eventually become effortless to think about while you're at the shops. A general rule of thumb that is helpful when thinking about portion size and what to actually put on your plate can be shown visually in the diagram above."

50% veggies -- 25% fat --25% protein

Which equates to:
70% Fat
25% Protein
5% Total Carbs

"Envisioning this graphically is important. I do still suggest that green veggies are a vital nutrient when first starting the ketogenic diet."

Cheese Taco Shells

Image
Ya'll, this recipe is so easy and fun! I was so excited to have 'tacos' again! Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Make round piles/areas (I spread it out a little, but don't leave any holes) of shredded cheese. Bake at 350* for 5-10 min. Mine started to get brown around the edges and bubbly in the center. Pull from over and drape over the edge of a pan or wooden spoon or something to give it the taco shell shape. Let cool. Then fill! That's it! So easy! Enjoy!!
