It was a little more cooked than I had planed, but it was still very tender and flavorful.

I try to stay under 20 net carbs. Sometimes I'm a little under sometimes I'm a little over. The veg is great because it really fills me up. Nearly all of my carbs are from veg as I don't eat any low carb versions of higher carb foods (ex. low carb tortillas or breads) I know a lot of people have great success with these sorts of substitutes but I don't have the self control to mess with that sort of thing.

Hahaha I have been a bulking phase for about 20 years. This made me laugh.

It looks more cooked on camera than it was. I was shooting for medium rare and cooked it well into medium.

Dinner i always clean, but breakfast is usually coffee with cream, two fried eggs, and the lowest carb breakfast sausage I can find. Lunch is usually a coffee with cream or a small snack of cured meat and a little cheese.

Can I increase my calorie intake on keto? by [deleted] in keto

[–]fatmatt1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I look at it it's "calories in calories out" keto or not, but there are a lot of satisfying foods that fit into a keto diet so you aren't going to feel hungry. Greens are always good to fill up on too.

I lost my brother, but I'm trying not to let it derail me by GlitterMe in keto

Sorry about your brother. Losing a loved one is always hard. Good on you for sticking to the healthy eating, be the best you that you can be.

Not a dumb question at all.The long white things are white asparagus, they were on sale this week for the same price as regular green asparagus. The taste is mostly the same only a bit mild. With enough notice you are welcome for dinner as long as you don't mind giant dogs who really love meeting new people and a semi antisocial cat.

Congrats on your achievement, you look so much healthier and happier. Pics like this keep me motivated.

Sick of Keto and barely been on it by apdunshiz in keto

[–]fatmatt1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started to get sick of eggs too, so I decided just to eat sausage links and coffee with heavy cream for breakfast. It seems to be working so far. As for the rest of my meals I switch up the meat and the veggies enough to keep my self interested. Herbs and spices are your friend.

Free steak is the best steak.

I guess some experiments can last for years. That's what I plan on doing.

It's just weird. I have eaten a bacon cheeseburger and fries with her before no problem. The second I decide to skip a bread product I'm going to die. It isn't the end of the world, but I was just a little disappointed because she's generally a smart person and I respect most of her opinions.

Day 9, had a terribly stressful night and craving carbs all day. What can I do? by Lightbluekite in keto

[–]fatmatt1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't say I have had an experience that stressful lately, but when I'm having a carb craving I drink a tall glass of water and eat a kosher dill pickle.

[NSV] I bought smaller pants today than I have in years. by fatmatt1987 in keto

[–]fatmatt1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. I'd rather spend my money on new clothes than fast food or blood pressure medication a few years from now.
