[quote=Anonymous]Britney here again.

Yeah, but by eating mostly protein/veg, I'm more than likely not going to go over 50g a day.  I know from past experience (so YMMV) that I'm not a person who only achieves ketosis from under 20net grams... I used pee strips (not the most reliable, I know) and was always firmly in ketosis upwards of about 50g a day.  And I guess better than the pee strips were the fact that weight was coming off, even though I was eating a ton of calories.  The only things I strict count are "treats/extras": so the occasional keto baked good, alcohol, carb smart tortilla, etc.  and I try to keep those to less than 15g a day.

I'm definitely not super strict - I'll use a ranch dressing that has 3g of carbs and a gram of added sugar (which is usually a no-no).  Here's today's menu:

Breakfast:
Iced coffee w/heavy cream
Handful of almonds

Lunch:
Mixed greens (spinach/lettuce/kale) with grilled chicken, cheese, hard boiled egg, broccoli, a few peppers, ranch dressing

Snack: (if I need it)
Pepperoni slices with cheese stick

Dinner:
Ground beef, lettuce, sour cream, in carb smart tortilla with roasted veg.  A couple of berries after dinner if I really need the sweet.

Just by rough sighting calculations, I imagine I'm at about 25-30g of net carbs today.  [/quote]
