[lbendall]

eggs , beef , spinach , fish oil caps , extra virgin olive oil




.......buuuuuut if you want best tasting then bacon , sausage , mayo , nuts , jelly and cream , cheese

you get the idea

[Eileen]

Pretty much anything you buy from your local butcher or fishmonger, any vegtables which are green or leafy or salad (root and fruit veg are more of a problem), most berries, eggs, cheese, nuts, seeds, olive oil, coconut, coconut oil, flaxseed, cream, very dark chocolate, sugar-free jelly, gelatin, cocoa, all that sort of stuff.

If she is thinking of doing keto and is not a bodybuilder or athlete, then she might take a look at www.lowcarber.org or www.pig2twig.co.uk.

what he said
im on the anabolic which is basically keto. i eat a sh*tload of red meat, cheese, pepperoni, chicken, green veggies, black berries, sour cream, peanut butter, nuts(in moderation the carbs add up quick), low carb protein shakes,

here:

Red Meat. The bulk of your diet should consist of red meat. Red meat has protein & fat, both needed in the Anabolic Diet. Most feel better with steak. But there?s plenty to choose from.

1. Beef. Chuck is economical & has 20% fat.

2. Pork. I?m not big a fan of Pork, however it?s good source of protein & fat.

3. Lamb. Tender & flavored. Very fatty meat.

4. Ground. I love hamburgers. Chuck & beef contain good amounts of fat.

5. Dried Meats. Beef jerky, Bresaola, ?

6. Bacon. American Bacon, Streaky Bacon, Fresh Bacon, Pancetta,?

7. Sausages. Chorizo, Pepporini, Merguez, ?

8. Salami. Corned Beef, Baloney, Calabrese, Soppressata, ?

9. Ham. Ardennes Ham, Jambon de Bayonne, Prosciutto, Prosciutto di Parma, Jamon Serrano, Jamon Iberico, ?


Poultry. White meats are less fatty than red meats. Eat white meats for variety, but keep in mind that you need animal fat on the Anabolic Diet. Go for the darker meat (thighs/legs) & eat the skin.

10. Chicken. I like whole chicken: eating everything up to the bones.

11. Turkey. Leaner than Chicken.

12. Duck. Wild ducks are very fat.

13. Goose. Less fatty than Duck, but fattier than Chicken.

14. Ground Chicken. Hamburgers from Ground Chicken are good for a change.

15. Ground Turkey.

16. Fowl. Good source of protein, but lean meat.

17. Pheasant. Same as fowl: good for protein, but low fat.


Fish. Fish are a good source of Omega 3. Omega 3 will help your testosterone levels & fat breakdown. I?m not a big fish eater to be honest.

18. Anchovies. Rinse the salt of before using.

19. Carp.

20. Catfish.

21. Herring.

22. Mackerel.

23. Salmon. Salmon Steaks, Smoked Salmon, ?

24. Sardines. I like them grilled with a salad in the summer.

25. Sturgeon.

26. Trout.

27. Tuna. Try tuna steaks vs. tuna out of a can.


Shellfish

28. Crab.

29. Lobster. Occasionally.

30. Mussels. Steamed Mussels.

41. Heavy Whipping Cream. Has close to 40% fat. Use it in your coffee, with your veggies or in your Post Workout Shake.


Fats. You?ll get plenty of saturated fat from the Red Meat, Eggs & Cheese. Balance with Omega 3 & Omega 9 fats for even better results.

42. Fish Oil. Liquid form or caps, great source of omega 3.

43. Cod Liver Oil. Omega 3, vitamin A, vitamin D.

44. Flax oil. Great with salads.

45. Butter. I cook everything with olive oil. You can use butter for a change.

46. Argan Oil. North African oil, I use it with salads & omelets (Omega 6).

50. Hazelnuts.

51. Pecans.

52. Pine Nuts. Use them with Olive Oil for Pesto.

84. Spices. Too many to list. I use lots of pepper & cumin.


Beverage. Keep the alcohol for the weekend. Most contain sugar.

85. Water. Drink a Gallon of Water Daily.

86. Green Tea. Full of anti-oxidants. Don?t overdo it, large quantities of Green Tea Affects Your Sleep.

87. Diet Soda. I don?t drink soda, but if you do go for light/diet soda.


Supplements
88. Whey. I prefer meat to whey. If it makes your life easier, go for it.

89. Flax Seeds. You need at least 20g of fiber a day. Buy flax seeds. Eat it with berries or with your salad.

[waynebw]

Careful with the avocados.. I knew they had lots of fat, so I ate a large one as a snack.. Later I checked the nutrition, and a large avo can have up to 20g carbs oh damn Probably better just adding a few slices into your salad, if you're on keto.

ive seen that list before. its a great list but i dont agree with fruit (except avocado of course) being part of a keto diet at all. 75g of any of those berries has approx 5-10g of NET carbs, save fruit for your carb ups unless you think one large strawberry counts as a meal.

[thesilent1]

I thought avocados would be fine as they have a high amount of fibre in as well which evens out the carbs?

Someone please correct me.

[danlawsons71]

My Favorite .. Brats On The Grill!!

They're fine. Very handy way to up your fats if necessary.

Shes right, 1 avocado 20g carb and about 15 of those are fiber.

But I never seen anyone eating a whole avocado at once! Strong stomach!

Do you have mega avocados or something? I've no problem eating one. And all my childrenw would happily eat one each as long as it was stuffed with bacon.

Not here in the states. But back home in our house tree the avocados (aguacate) as we call it can grow up to 10" long and weight about 1-2 lbs. We eat it as a side, with rice, beans and meat, or in a salad.
I found a pic online, this one is in Cuba, but the ones home (Puerto Rico) are about 1/2 to 2/3rds that size. The one on the pic IS NOT what you will normally find.

[Hydro215]

Now that's an avocado! And i would totally try to eat the whole thing. Avocados are one of those things that it seems most people hate or love there is no in between. I eat almost everything in that giant list above except nuts and fruits. My hardest challenge is making sure i bring meals to work because trying to find something besides fast food etc sucks. I have only recently discovered this type of dieting and i love it, would highly reccomend a keto diet, and i think it is easy to follow.

[Vise09]

thought I'd dig this up as its an excellent list.

[CR56BB]

Eat nothing growth from the ground =D

[Mixano]

Eat nothing growth from the ground =D

haha yehaa pretty much, eat the stuff that eats the green stuff. That list was epic
