Chips, Dips, Snacks and Chocolate!

[Claire87]

Hi Claire!

Currently consume around 30gs of carbs a day purely now for blood glucose control which keeps me in ketosis and consume between 2500 and 3000 calories and i snack on as many olives,cheeses,salamis and nuts as I wish to increase my calories rather than carbs and I've found that increasing my sat fat's further I don't gain weight but don't lose any either..I believe my ketones are now present through burning the fat in my diet as apposed to when I was on a lower calorie diet,below 2500 calories when I was burning my own fat reserves if that makes any sense.

Best wishes

Paul

So it's pretty easy to maintain weight by just keeping going. That'll stop it getting complicated. I'm finding it to be an easy lifestyle change. Yep it makes sense, and it's useful to know what to expect when I hit the target weight. Thanks .

Hi

I haven't had chance to test these out, but they claim to be low carb and gluten free snacks. And the recipes look gorgeous, so I'd certainly start with recipes like this ones on this blog:http://alldayidreamaboutfood.com/

I hope this helps

All the best.
