The foods look good....though you could find something better than the hot dogs just because the typical ones have all sorts of crap added to them. I just started to look at the ingredients in stuff and was surprised to find that most hotdogs, sausage and bacon have dextrose added to it.

The %'s on food labels don't mean anything

alright i'll replace the hot dog with bacon then. thx

if you picked up regular jiff PB, I would go back and buy some all natural PB (smucker's makes some) and throw that other hydrogenated oil heavy crap in the trash.

I also keep parm cheese flakes in the fridge that I snack on when I'm hungry.
heavy cream is great in coffee and a great source of fat
my freezer is full of every type of meat imagineable
I slather my steaks in goat cheese. (better than A1 sauce)
I buy eggs by the 5 dozen boxes now.
pork rinds are good when craving a chip-like substance. (good when dipped in melted cheese sauce)
pork rinds also make a great "breading" for wings. (crush them up and add a couple of eggs, coat meat, deep fry, and enjoy."
slim jims are a nice treat every now and then (don't go nuts with them.)
sausage is a great way to look forward to breakfast (I like patties)
don't forget the bacon.
a salad here and there will keep you pooping normally (I go for ceasar without the crutons.)
pepperoni is another great snackfood.
check out the recepies section for some great keto stuff. (I have in my fridge currently keto fudge, keto brownies, and keto PB cookies.
breyers makes some carb smart ice cream bars that are a nice treat, along with 1/2 gallons. (though I find it easier to go overboard with the 1/2 gallons.)
a glass of red wine a night will not kill you either. Just make sure its a single 8oz serving.

All in all I like his diet better than any other. When else can you cook bacon, and fry sausage and eggs in the grease?

I would probably save the chicken breasts for the carb ups and instead opt for the more fattier counter parts like legs or thighs but that's just me.

i personally dont like legs or thighs... so i eat the breast and add bacon cheese and a tbsp of olive oil to make it a "fatty" cut of meat...LOL

Dude, you'll like the natural PB sooooooo much better than that processed crap. I'll go through about 2 jars a month.

I jsut can't get myself to pour the fat on my vegs. I would much rather drench everything in ranch or butter or olive oil.
