Hey Keto Darlings,
So, today is the day I start making my meals for the week. I usually prep for 7 days (Monday through Sunday-breakfast, lunch, and dinner). 3 meals a day equal 21 meals. I also make Fat Bombs, but mostly for friends. I do try to have a healthy snack once or twice a day. Here's what a typical day might look like for me:
Breakfast:
Sausage Balls (4)
Hard Boiled Egg
Cubed Cheese
Snack:
Olives or Pickles
Lunch:
Taco Bowl with Low Carb Tortilla Strips
Snack:
Grain Free Granola
Dinner:
Keto No Chop Chili
It is recommended that you drink half your body weight in water in ounces daily. So, I should be drinking 120 ounces of water daily, so roughly a gallon. I drink Propel and Sparkling Ice as well as regular drinking water.
Hardcore Keto Faithful keep track of their macros. For me, I make sure I am at or under 20 net carbs per day. The term "net carbs" simply refers to carbs that are absorbed by the body. To calculate the net carbs in whole foods, subtract the fiber from the total number of carbs. To calculate the net carbs in processed foods, subtract the fiber and a portion of the sugar alcohols. Try to stay away from processed foods though. I will provide a list of my staples in my Keto pantry and fridge.
Typically, a female will lose up to 7 lbs the first week on Keto and a male up to 12 lbs (lucky guys and their body chemistry). Adding in cardio will also help to jumpstart your weight loss journey and make your body feel oh so good!
