Hi,
Keto is any way of eating (or not eating) that means the body switches from glucose burning to fat burning. And that usually happens for people when they eat somewhere below 50g carbs a day.
However, it is worth bearing in mind, that protein can be converted to glucose by the body, via a process called gluconeogenesis. This happens if we eat more protein than we need to use for protein-purposes, then the spare will be broken down and may release glucose via gluconeogenesis.
I don't know your height, weight and activity levels, so i can't say how much protein you need - but there are lots of protein calculators online, where you can check if you want. For me, the amount of protein on that menu would be high enough to prevent ketosis, and the small amount of veg would leave me constipated.
Doesn't mean that will happen to you, since we are all different, but it might be worth you doing a bit of trial and error to see how your body handles more or less of the different macronutrients. But a ketogenic diet isnt a high protein diet.
Are you testing for ketones?
If you want a programme of really delicious, varied, interesting meals, then have a look at the 2 week Keto Challenge, on the
www.dietdoctor.com website. It demonstrates just how high we can go on the fat, rather than the protein.
Hope that helps.
