Where I Am Now Let's first start out with some basics. Now some of this may seem like unnecessary information but comparing it to my past, it's meaningful but that'll become more apparent as you keep reading. I currently sit at 190 pounds and have been at this weight for about a year now. I am 6'4 and have about 9.5% body fat. I lead a pretty active lifestyle in comparison to what it used to be. I frequent the gym 3-4 a week, go out to social gatherings another 2-3 times a week and work 5 ...

Spicy Jalapeno Poppers
Jalapeno poppers are a great way to get flavor and fats into your dinner. If you're tired of oily meals and fatty soups, then this will be the perfect break for you. The cream cheese stays soft and delicious on the inside while the heat of the pepper comes through on every bite. You can easily change up the flavor profile of this by changing the type of cheese you use, the spices that go into the cheese mixture, or chopping up some extra cooked bacon and stuffing that inside also. From prep ...

Keto Mississippi Roast
This keto Mississippi roast can be shoved in your slow cooker early in the day for a hands free but tasty dinner. The shredded beef is punched up with peppery flavors and peperoncinis that almost melt into the meat. There are a number of recipes for this roast style on the internet, but I created this version to not use any spice packages. You can use ingredients that you probably have in your pantry already. I also like to use the sliced peppers instead of the whole peppers. Family ...

Limiting carbs is one of the easiest ways to get into ketosis. It doesn’t require fasting; it doesn’t even require you to eat fewer calories — all you have to do is restrict your carbohydrates and eat just enough protein (and not too much) to stimulate fat burning and ketone production. Other factors like fat consumption, stress, and activity levels are important to consider as well, but knowing how many carbs you need to eat to get into ketosis is a good place to start. From there, our guide ...

Cast Iron Kitchen Sink Frittata
I've been wanting to do a frittata in a cast iron skillet for a long time, but could never do it. I'm so glad I finally got around to it because the crust this thing created is phenomenal. A little bit crunchy, and then a whole lot of egg, meat, and cheese. I recently got my cast iron skillet off of amazon. It's pre-seasoned, but if you buy one (and I highly suggest it), you should re-season it yourself. Wash it with only water and salt. Wipe it down with olive oil or bacon fat and bake it at ...

Savory Sage and Cheddar Waffles
Waffles might be a breakfast food, slathered in sweet syrup, but they also make a great savory treat. Waffles are ideal for tartines (open faced stacked sandwiches). They also make great sandwiches filled with your favorite meats and cheeses. This version makes a terrific “bread.” The sage and cheddar cheese flavors could compliment a wide range of sandwich combinations. The key to making these waffles with success is not over-filling the waffle iron. The batter is thick and doesn’t pour out ...
