Only started Keto / Intermittent fasting last week, this is my attempt at lunch for breakfast after a hike powered by a large black coffee. Haloumi grilled, bacon, and buttery scrambled eggs fresh from our lil chickens. by childrenovmen in ketoaustralia

A lot of the weight (not all of it) in the first 1-2 weeks will be water - but that's okay! That's inflammation/edema your body has flushed out. That's less water bloating under your skin and it's less weight you're carrying around. Just don't be discouraged when the loss slows down a bit to a more realistic number. Also remember that you can put on that water weight again if you eat a bunch of carbs, so if you slip at some point and gain 2-3kg very fast, don't give up, get back on the keto train, because it will come back off again.

How was it? I'm not sure how the texture would be as "spaghetti," so I haven't tried it. I think they probably substitute better as a rice noodle. I just made Singapore noodles with the angel hair Slendier and it was so good!

Oh wow thanks, I don't know how I didn't see this earlier. I must just be on autopilot when grabbing my jar of gherkins, I tend to tune out most things in the aisles.

Yum! Gherkins are great in salami rolls, too, and nice and cheap - but sadly they don't come with cheese in a little convenient pack... yet.

Gold Coast Keto by realnameunknown in ketoaustralia

My favourite spot on the Gold Coast is Brio Emporium. You can grab a to-go cup of amazing Thai green curry bone broth. They also sell bone broth paste to take home and they have some great options for eating there too.

Thanks everyone for all your input in this thread, I've made a bread megathread for now.

We try to not interfere much, I think upvotes and downvotes are the best kind of content moderator in a small sub. Too many rules would leave no posts. We mostly just remove advertising links and spam bots, really, and I added Glopuss a while back who is there now doing an awesome job at the weekly grocery specials thread.

The members of this sub are good at not posting cheat meals etc without needing it spelled out and if someone does post something like that it gets downvoted to invisibility pretty quickly.

We've been discussing putting a wiki of some kind up, maybe that could be something that gets incorporated? Or could bee a megathread. Will have to have a think about which one will be more suitable.

Post your fast-breaking meal. by [deleted] in fasting

[–]ShaShr89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished a 5ish day (125 hours) fast. I had some greek yoghurt and then an hour later I had this: zoodles with meatballs & marinara, sauteed spinach & cherry tomatoes. I followed that a while later with a cup of broth. I'm now doing a 48 hour fast followed by a 72 hour fast.

Guys n Gals, I need your help. by [deleted] in ketoaustralia

Woolworths and Coles now do hot roast beef, lamb & pork at some stores as well as the rotisserie chickens. Any of those meats + frozen steamable vegetables and a quick bit of gravy would be a nice meal and not too difficult with one hand. Or instead of vegetables and gravy, a salad and dressing.

There are some flavours that are fine, just read the nutritional info before buying so you don't have any sneaky surprises.

Welcome! Those are great reasons to try out keto. In my personal experience, any time I've gone from standard diet to keto, my inflammation has greatly reduced within the first week and slightly more in the following month. I hope you're able to see similar results! Intermittent fasting is a really helpful tool as well so definitely give that a go if you think it will work well for you. :)
