Day #17: Low Carb KETO Day

Coach❤️Theah 30 day Primal & Low Carb Challenge

 

W❤️W! how did you do yesterday?

Are you ready for KETO day today?

Keto Diet Overview


Most people associate a Keto Diet to eating Bacon and Eggs. I prefer to think of a Keto Diet as a Healthy Fat Diet, with moderate amounts of Protein and Lower Carbohydrates.


Following a Keto Diet, by definition, means consuming strict Low-Carb (usually below 20-30 grams per day), Moderate Protein (0.6 grams of lean body mass, per day) and Higher Fat (75-85% of total diet).


In order to succeed at a Ketogenic Diet it is necessary to enter ketosis and stay in ketosis. Calories are usually not counted on a Keto diet, instead you eat when hungry and until full.


If you are following the ❤️ 75% fat: ❤️20% protein: ❤️5% net carb approach, this usually looks like 2 meals/day, in an 8 hour period, and no snacking.


This is called Intermittent Fasting

 

KETO Macros & Why I love it:

❤️Macros:

Protein: .6-1 gram of protein per kg of lean body mass

Carbs: <20-30 for weight-loss

Fat: Healthy Fats eat each meal


❤️️ Eat 2-3 meals (Protein/Fat/Carbs)

❌Avoid Snacking between meals

❤️Fast between meals (5 hours) ~ TRE (Time Restricted Eating)

❤️Great approach for weight-loss

❤️Reduced hunger and inflammation

❤️Helps with lower insulin and blood glucose

 

❤️You are ALLOWED to eat whatever you want ~ you are choosing foods that are consistent with your goals ❤️
