Jared Baldo Lost 58 Lbs

Nine months ago, I was feeling pretty down. Couldn't keep up with the kids, the wife, the housework, anything. I was a heavy smoker for almost 20 years. So I finally decided to quit in late January 2015. But I didn't stop eating. Got up to 321 lbs...not good. Then had some changes in our life. Needed to feel better about myself. So a friend told me about the keto diet and Ruled.me. He had lost 67 lbs in 12 weeks. And it seemed so easy, for the most part. So I had one last stuffing breakfast ...

Maegan Rohrbach Lost 20 Lbs and Dropped Her Antidepressant

My name is Meagan. I’m a 24-year-old dental student living in Ohio. For as long as I can remember, I have always struggled with my weight. I was never the kind of girl that others would call “fat” but I was never proud of my body either. I grew up active, participating in ballet, and have had a fascination with food that has been hard to explain. I come from a family of obese people. Literally everyone older than me is overweight, so I think I was trying to avoid what I thought was my ...

Mashed Cauliflower with Parmesan Cheese and Truffle Oil

Mashed Cauliflower with Parmesan Cheese and Truffle Oil

Mashed cauliflower is the go-to mashed potato replacement for people on ketogenic diets. Sometimes, however, mashed cauliflower can get a little boring. This recipe turns down-home mashed cauliflower into a gourmet side dish. The cauliflower is steamed and then mashed with butter, salt, and pepper. A handful of Parmesan cheese adds interest and a nutty flavor, but the crown jewel of the dish is black truffle oil. Black truffle oil provides a deep, earthy flavor and complex aroma. It is a ...

Keto Bread Loaves

Keto Bread Loaves

Bread is right up at the top of the list when it comes to what we miss being able to eat on our ketogenic diet. These keto bread loves combine high fiber coconut flour with wholesome flaxseed meal and a handful of standard baking ingredients.

For mini loaves, use 5-3/4 by 3-1/4 by 2-1/4 pans and for a full size loaf, ...

Carla Walker Lost 52 Lbs and Her Husband’s A1C Is Now Normal!

Hi Craig! Yours was the first website I started with when I started looking into the Keto diet. It was easy to understand, and full of information, and tools. I downloaded the 14 day meal plan and took it with me when I went shopping. It didn't take long for me to get the gist of the diet, and I was blessed to not have the keto flu, and seemed to adjust pretty easily. So far this is the easiest diet I've been on. I started January 3, 2015, at 260lbs. I have slowed down a bit over the ...

Keto Cookies and Crème Ice Cream

Keto Cookies and Crème Ice Cream

This Cookies and Crème keto ice cream recipe is the perfect combination of creamy and crunchy. Even after hours in the freezer, it still remains temptingly creamy and requires very little time to soften before serving. While this ice cream is super addictive, it’s so rich and filling that it really doesn't take much to satisfy you. If you want to achieve a soft-serve ice cream consistency, then you can serve the ice cream directly from the machine for ultimate creaminess. If you prefer a ...

Low Carb Irish Colcannon

Low Carb Irish Colcannon

Colcannon is a traditional Irish dish made with mashed potatoes and kale. In our version we leave the potatoes behind and sub cauliflower as the base of the dish. Next we add in spinach for a beautiful green hue and some added nutrition. The dish is finished with cream, avocado,  and plenty of sour cream.  Finally, some added butter gives it a traditional flavor that may even fool an Irishman! Serve Colcannon as the Irish do with ham or bacon. You can make it a regular addition to your ...
