Yesterday was my first ‘proper’ day of changing to the Keto WOE. I turned vegetarian last Autumn and in order to make this diet work easily have opted to eat fish again. I also eat eggs and dairy.
My biggest hurdle yesterday was simply hunger. I ended up eating around 35g of carbs via nuts to try and feel full. In hindsight I should have scrambled some eggs or something instead but hey ho, done now.
I’m a nurse and back on nights now so trying to plan ahead. Carb treats surround me at work, from cake & chocolates in the staff room to my fave biscuits on the tea trolley.
It’s going to be a challenge I know but this is my plan:
Scrambled eggs with cream before I go to work.
Smoked salmon with mayo and green salad as my main meal.
Fat bombs made using cream cheese & almond nut butter.
Snack of avocado.
Macro wise it fits with 78% fat, 19% protein and 3% carbs. I know calorie counting is frowned upon but works out just under 1700.
Does this sound sensible? I really don’t want hunger pangs at work if I can avoid them.
Any insights welcome.
Thanks
Chezza
