J8waves's Journal, 17 Sep 19

First day of recording my food again. And tracking my calories burnt helped to make sure I stay within my budget calories allowed to consume. Keto: showed 100g of carbs but half of that show be fiber, so net carb I should be in range. I have stalled around 149 for at least a month now. Time to move on. Down with next 10lbs!
67.8 kg Lost so far: 4.4 kg.    Still to go: 13.4 kg.    Diet followed: Reasonably Well.

This sounds good. That many carbs would not work for me well to get in ketosis. I have to be under 30 net which usually is under 40 total. But we are all different and if you feel that this if working well and you are feeling good: well then you are doing it right for you!

Liv001 I have to start somewhere. There’s carbs in everything. Guess once I find a zero or low carb receipe I should compile and repeat.

Yeah for sure. It is helpful to plan your eating in advance as well then you will be able to control the carbs and get the number you want. You can have all kinds of variance just have to think of carb foods and sides.

J8waves, it is simplest to avoid anything starchy - bread, pasta, rice, for example - and don't look for substitutes. Once you get fat-adapted, and get used to the WOE, it will be easy. For me, it's all about controlling my BS (I am T2D) and improving my insulin sensitivity. Eventually I hope to be able to increase carbs.

@J8waves, making progress! Your breakfast and dinner were spot on; dinner did you in. Fiber was less than a third of your carb grams on Monday. The arithmetic is what gets ya! The pineapple and black bean spaghetti contributed 40g carbs: Substitute spiralized zucchini for any starch-based pasta, and keto fruits are really limited to berries. (Although I love mango & pineapple, they're out while I have so much weight to lose.) Just those two substitutions would've really made a difference. Like liv001 said, planning. For me, it's more about simplifying my food, not so much about "finding recipes."
