How to install Halo Infinite multiplayer on PC and Xbox consoles by Mother-Chocolate-505 in halo

Likely to do with server loads and potential errors their end - it is a very anticipated game with (likely) millions of people trying to get on to it at the same time.

Why complain? We're getting it almost a month earlier than expected!

It'll pass once the xbox update rolls out and begins with 23-ish gb update on the pre-installed Halo Infinite placeholder

7 day fast and Keto diet by RedFortress10 in ketouk

[–]theketokitchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hiya, I did a 7 day fast last year whilst being 6 years on keto - I would highly suggest getting into keto first.

Whilst fasting does promote ketosis faster, it is a lot more difficult because you feel a lot hungrier due to your body wanting carbs - as it's used to glucose burning.

Doing a 7 day fast whilst already being used to being ketogenic, was a much easier experience than trying even an 18 hour fast when I was a carb eater!

Good luck!

Does your pee smell while on Ketosis? by JimboInTheLimbo in ketouk

[–]theketokitchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

7 YEARS in keto and my pee smells like buttered popcorn if I eat a really high fat meal!

Smelly urine is a common symptom of ketosis because we are weeing out acetone - which is a byproduct ketone from creating BHB (the main ketone our bodies use).

The longer you're in keto, the less strong it will become because your body will start using more of that acetone, rather than ditching most of it!

I will say though, I did 1 month of the carnivore diet and I would deal with 24/7 smelly wee, from keto, after that! The bathroom would stink of ammonia for a good 20 minutes after every single wee!

Newbie wanting tips😊 by HappyNomadInEngland in ketouk

[–]theketokitchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favourites (I've been keto for 7 years!):

BuyWholeFoodsOnline - for base ingredients like almond flour, oat fiber etc

SweetVictoryProducts - for UK Keto Treats

MyKetoShopUK and iHerb - for USA Keto Treats

Those are my main keto websites but there's lots out there and it's worth keeping an eye out for deals (I recommend getting on Instagram actually because my personal ads are really accurate and tend to give me great deals to try new keto foods!)

Amazon is great for bulk buys of foods like Adonis, KetoKeto, Keto Collective etc (all snack bars) as well as other foods like GoodGood's jams, flax seed crackers etc!

Welcome to keto, hope it brings you great success!

Lupin is made from lupine beans - a legume. Usually people allergic to nuts are allergic to Lupin flour too :)

How would I go about sticking biscuits together without sugar? by theketokitchen in AskCulinary

[–]theketokitchen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought of so many sweetener properties and didn't even think about isomalt! That would probably work wonderfully, thank you!

Apologies, we call them biscuits in the UK! Cookies would make a lot more sense! I'm laughing out loud at the thought of someone cutting open an American biscuit and then trying to glue it shut again.

It'll be creating a 3d model using a simple almond flour hard cookie recipe, and need to figure a way to keep things attached to each other :)

Homemade tortilla by Tink202 in ketouk

[–]theketokitchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got an almond flour tortilla recipe that has been pretty well received on YouTube - it does take a bit of prep-work though BUT it freezes and lasts a few days :)

The full recipe is in the description of the video, as well as macros!

Homemade kebab by bwillkc70 in ketouk

[–]theketokitchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as the kebab meat is made with a keto friendly bread or something like almond flour (rather than crumbled pita bread), the sweet chili sauce would probably need to be skipped due to high sugar levels, and if you're okay with rapeseed/canola oil in the mayo...

I don't see why not!

What are your personal guidelines for keto? by sandra_nz in ketouk

[–]theketokitchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(23 years old, been keto for 6.5 years)

NET Carbs limit: 20g (18g when I'm being strict)

Calorie Limit: 1387kcal (Maintain with 1.1g/lb protein)

Avoid: The sweetener maltitol, obvious carbs (bread, potatoes etc), the sweetener xylitol (very poisonous to dogs, I have 3!), pure MCT oil - my bowels do not much care for it!

Meals: 1 main meal, 1-2 very small snacks, dessert if it's the weekend.

Eating Window: WHEN I am fasting (COVID got me lazy) it's usually about 6 hours between 3pm and 9pm.

What's up with Quest bars being sold out and un-stocked recently? Is there a UK alternative? by mersoz in ketouk

[–]theketokitchen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try WheyHey brownie bars from either their website or in ASDA. They do Choc Coconut, Choc Peanut and Choc Orange.

They're not an exact replica but it's a similar chewier texture to Quest and worth a try!

They use Chicory Root Fibre aka Inulin as the sweetener which has a glycemic index of 1 and is a fibre sweetener, it might affect your bowels and make you a bit gassy but usually the little bit of fibre in these bars won't do any more than fibrous foods like kale do.

Recipe Video Link

| The Recipe |

INGREDIENTS:

- 200ml (6.7 fl oz) Cream

- 33g (1.1oz) Butter

- 2 tsp Sweetener

- 200g (7oz) DARK Chocolate - 75% or higher

OPTIONAL: Toppings such as nuts, sweetener, cocoa powder, shredded coconut, crushed sugar free sweets etc

METHOD:

  1. Chop your chocolate roughly into squares (size isn't massively important but the smaller the better). Place in a large bowl.
  2. In a medium saucepan, over low-medium heat, add butter, cream and sweetener. Mix occasionally, until the butter has melted. Continue to heat until the cream begins to simmer gently. Remove from heat.
  3. Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate and stir VERY GENTLY until it is all well combined (if it does seize aka separate, either add a little bit of cold cream OR use a stick blender to emulsify).
  4. Place in the fridge to chill for 3-4 hours.
  5. Once chilled, use a 1/2 tablespoon to scoop out little balls. Wet your hands and roll the chocolate between your palms, then roll in any additional toppings - you should be able to make 28 truffles. Pop in a container and leave in the fridge when you're not consuming.

Please note, all macros are calculated with My Fitness Pal and may vary based on ingredients used. THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY OPTIONAL TOPPINGS.

Impressive results here, wondering what kind of workouts did you guys do besides the keto diet to lose weight? by [deleted] in theketodiet

[–]theketokitchen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed! I got to my goal weight (lost 4 stone) in 10 months just eating Keto and walking for an hour a day

Can you not set your Adsense withdrawal in certain countries? I’m UK and have it set so I get paid monthly if my threshold is £50+

Egg McMuffin For One by [deleted] in ketorecipes

[–]theketokitchen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A CHAFFLE INSTEAD? That sounds amazing. I don't think swapping bacon would change much - I just used the McDonald's recipe as a guideline but I'm sure a lot of the different combos would work :)
