I’m thinking to be nearly full keto all day long and then having dinner w my hubbie in the evenings. Past 4 weeks we’ve eaten separately together but I’m seeing how we miss what’s been usual for us. We eat organic vegie seafood so baseline healthy altho not keto. I’m the cooking fiend but he’s learning greatly and has his specials already (!)
We really treasure this thing we do together on a daily basis (cook and eat real good healthy food - thai and other styles).
So, would like to hold to 25% of my net carbs during the day, then 75% in the evenings. That’s 5/15 net carbs for LCHF and 2-3/7-8 for full Keto for my current calorie allowance for 2.5# drop per week WHICH IS WORKING (!!)
Bulletproof coffee (grass fed butter, MCT oil and a touch of stevia, sometimes 1/2 1/2) first thing helps, as does some sort of intermittent fasting, usually 16:8 so first meal (small -!- or maybe just egg fast style) at abt 2pm. Will test blood keto - was 0.9 last night and monitor daily scale. 10#s down past 4 weeks on mixed LCHF and Ketogenic macro distribution days - and holding with anticipated further 1# drop every 4 days or so til goal - which is only 7 more #s. Then will try to maintain this level of both blood keto and scale as well as feeling good !
Any thoughts on this or similar experiences ?
Thanks !
