Leah’s Down 80 Lbs on Keto and Gained Self-Love

Down 80 lbs since discovering keto and ruled.me. Keto helped me go from a life of being obese to finally hitting the “normal” category for weight. I literally am the weight I was in 5th grade. FIFTH! I’ve been overweight my entire life! Not only have I lost the weight, but I have found huge relief from joint issues and burning pain that used to be my morning norm. No longer! I was able to sustain a lower-carb diet all through my last and final pregnancy and it was the easiest pregnancy ...

Summer Tuna Avocado Salad

Summer Tuna Avocado Salad

Who knew avocado and tuna would go so well together!? I’m in awe of just how delicious this salad is. It has a mix of strong flavors complimented by the tart lemon dressing. Not to mention, it requires NO cooking and can be put together in just a few minutes! For this salad, I used an English cucumber, but if you have trouble finding it, you can use just a regular one. It should be fairly large, roughly 8 inches in length so that you can get enough for this recipe. You can also add in ...

Keto Chicken Thighs – 10 Recipes and 4 Essential Rules

Keto Chicken Thighs – 10 Recipes and 4 Essential Rules

It is hard not to like chicken thighs. Despite being one of the cheapest meats, they are packed with more flavor and healthy fats than costlier cuts like chicken breast. Surprisingly enough, the benefits of chicken thighs only increase as the cost goes down. By opting for bone-in, skin-on thighs — instead of the more expensive boneless, skinless option — you can reap the benefits of collagen and bone broth without having to pay extra for keto supplements.  To help you get the most out of ...

Keto White Pizza Frittata

Keto White Pizza Frittata

Frittatas are a fantastic food to make when you're meal prepping or have little time in the morning to wait for breakfast to cook. They're great microwaved, re-heated in the oven, or just plain cold (which is my favorite). Today we're going to make a ketogenic friendly white pizza frittata. Traditionally, a white pizza is the dough and cheese on top (in a nutshell). Instead, we use different cheeses in the frittata base, and top with a delicious mozzarella and pepperoni combo.

Bacon Avocado Muffins

Bacon Avocado Muffins

When you think of muffins you generally reminisce on the overly sweet, sugar-laden pastries you can buy in the coffee shop. You don't usually see yourself eating a savory muffin, especially one that's stuffed full of avocado and bacon. Especially not me. I never used to be much of a fan of avocados growing up (even though I had a tree), but recently found a new love for them - and can't seem to get enough of them anymore. These keto muffins are absolutely awesome. You know when you wake up a ...

As I look deeper into the keto diet, however, there is a huge discrepancy between what people think they need to do versus what the science says is best for most people. Some common myths like "carbs and insulin are the only reason why we get fat", "you will lose weight as ...
