Hello everyone.
I’m looking for some sound advice on how I can start the Keto way of eating.
I live in London , UK
I’m 55 year young woman.
I am obese.
I’ve type 2 diabetes. Brain aneurysms.
And recently been diagnosed with breast cancer
Stage 1 invasive ductal carcinoma.
I also have sleep apnea.
I’ve been looking into Keto and this sounds like the right way of eating for me.
My biggest problem is trying to give up / substitute the carbs.
I used to have cereal or a bacon sandwich for breakfast. Something involving bread for lunch and then something with potatoes , rice or pasta for evening meal.
Even soups or curries I’d prepare at home would have some form of carb in them.
Is there a good Keto plan that people can recommend to me that will take my hand and guide me through it step by step until I understand what I’m doing.
I bought a couple of bags of ready grated mozzarella the other day only to discover after eating some that they contain potato starch so take you out of ketosis ! Why put potato starch in cheese ?
So if anyone can point me in the right direction and tell me which Keto diet book to follow , what foods I can eat , which foods should be avoided. I shall be eternally grateful.
Also are there are any menu plans to follow to help ease me into this completely new way of eating ?
Thank you everyone.
Nancy
