I thought I'd send you an update, along with pics taken last month after I'm down 30 pounds. I started back on a protein power type of low-carb diet on 1/17/15. For the next two months, I research a keto/lchf way of eating. I found your website and purchased the Keto Academy to get me started. Then around 3/17/15, I started doing a ketogenic WOE. In the two months prior I had lost 9 pounds, but wasn't happy with that way of eating. I love keto/lchf, which is a very satisfying way of ...
Keto Delivered November 2015 Unboxing
Thanksgiving is now over (I hope you guys had a great one, by the way!) and most everyone has received their Keto Delivered box. I've been really excited to see all of the positive feedback and the huge amount of anticipation for the December box to become available. With the holiday season in full effect, I thought that most people would be doing traveling in some sort of way: either by air or road. I wanted to make this Keto Delivered box something that will facilitate the holiday travels ...

Keto Delivered October 2015 Unboxing
This month for Keto Delivered, I really wanted to revamp the traditional keto condiment shelf. What do you usually find yourself reaching out for in the fridge when you need a little bit of sauce on top of your burger, eggs, or chicken? You might be a lover of ranch, reduced sugar ketchup, mayonnaise, sriracha, or good ol' hot sauce. For me, it's always mayo or hot sauce (or a mixture of the two). I wanted to take my two favorites and share them with you - in elevated style. Alongside that, ...

Chocolate Covered Maple Pecan Bacon
I know I'm giving you the run over on the mug cakes this week but I figured you'd want to get this made ASAP because it's just too good to not make! This stuff was handed down from the heavens as far as I'm concerned, and I won't judge if you end up stocking this up on trays in your fridge. The only qualm I have with this stuff is that the chocolate melts pretty quick because it's mostly made up of fat...but who the heck cares? Are you going to be holding this stuff for more than 10 seconds? ...

Low Carb Corned Beef Cabbage Rolls
Okay, okay. I know I promised to bring you savory mug cakes and I definitely will - I just thought a nice intermittent break would be useful for the people that don't always enjoy mug cakes. Don't worry though, they're coming soon! These cabbage rolls are really an awesome way to eat corned beef. I knew for sure I was making corned beef for St. Patty's day (and sorry I didn't post this yesterday, I had it for dinner last night), but I didn't know what way I would eat it. Once I took the ...

Maple Pecan Keto Muffins
So I figured we needed a bit of a break from all the mug cakes before I start off on the savory series. Though I have all of the savory ones done, I wanted to give a bit of a treat to you guys (especially the ones without microwaves)! Boy, I didn't imagine in todays day and age that some people just don't own microwaves. They're so convenient but I do understand that the nutrients are pretty much sucked out of the joyous life of everything by those microwave radiation waves. Either way, I ...

Keto Carrot Cake
Carrot cake is far from keto-friendly. The carrots, cake, and cream cheese icing saturate each slice with excess sugar and net carbs. Although you can have other types of cake on keto — such as chocolate mug cake or keto cheesecake — they simply don't match the unique texture and flavor of a high-quality carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. However, this doesn't mean you have to give up carrot cake to reach your keto goals. In fact, by using what we've learned from other low-carb cake ...

The Best Nuts for Keto: Low Carb Nuts, Seeds & What to Avoid
Nuts are known for their vitamin, mineral, fiber, and healthy fat content. What is often overlooked, however, is how many carbs they add to the diet. Since nuts are designed by nature to provide nourishment for a new plant, each one comes with some net carbs in the form of starches and sugars. This is why it is crucial to consider the carb counts of each nut before you incorporate them into your keto lifestyle. To give you a better idea of the best nuts for keto, let's take a look at carbs ...
