Ok calling all you beef lovers!
Beef Loving Texans set up a booth at our lab week yesterday (yes I am a lab rat). Check out their website for some over the top great beef recipes. We all know how to adapt them for low carb right? But it’s the beef that matters!

Seriously there are some great recipes there.

Buffalo chicken legs with blue cheese and mashed cauliflower.
Amy just got an air fryer any favorite receipie for that??
I don't have one derek, but Kenny started a thread awhile back when he got his. I was thinking about getting one, but so far haven't figured out what I would use it for, and my kitchen space is already over run with gadgets. I hope you guys use it lots and give me a reason to get one! http://jokerswildforum.com/showthrea...e-guilt!/page2

This popped up on my FB page - For those following the Keto regime, these look great!
DH is going to be busy tomorrow so I'm going to do some cooking. My plans are:
1. Keto pretzels - https://peaceloveandlowcarb.com/keto-soft-pretzels/
2. A new salad dressing recipe - http://www.stephaniesdish.com/recipe...essing-recipe/
3. Pork belly - I've never made this but I'm going to try and see if I can make it happen. Any cooking tips?
I just saw a rave about this recipe from a friend on FB, so I thought I’d post here!

Well the pork belly is out of the oven and cooling. I snuck a piece off an end an it's delicious! We'll have plenty to put in the freezer.

The Keto pretzels turned into keto pretzel sticks instead of pretzels because the dough was too sticky and I lost patience. They are yummy though!

Instead of the ranch dressing I thought I'd try a new recipe for sesame dressing. It was horrible! Nothing I could do to save it so it went down the drain.
Up for tomorrow is tomahawk ribeye and jalapeño mashed cauliflower.

Mary the pork belly and pretzel sticks look fantastic! Probably good it was only the dressing that was a fail! I have found many, many fails since I started this way of eating and I am sure I will have many more....
Watching The Magic Pill on Netflix. All about the keto. Very good so far.
The time has come. I'm finally ready to start getting healthy after multiple false starts over the last 3.5 years. What has become very clear to me is that I can control very little in my life. But the things I have 100% control over are my reactions to others and what I put on my mouth. I've conquered the 1st, but need major realignment in my performance in regards to the second. I just had this 'you must start now' moment yesterday and I'm 100% committed to being successful.
In the past, what's worked for me was high protein, low fat and moderate carb combined with liberal amounts of cardiovascular and very heavy weightlifting. This time Im going to choose the keto program for a variety of reasons. Number one being I've never tried it before and number two, the results seem to come quick.
I'm currently too unhealthy to embark on a rigid exercise plan. So I'm going to go the keto route and give it a try for 30 days.
I once did the first phase of South Beach for 30 days and lost 25 pounds without exercise. I'm guessing keto will have similar, if not better, results as the 1st phase of South Beach.
I've ordered an Instapot, and will be stocking up on all the keto staples after work Monday and will start the program May 1.*
Question.....any tips for eating keto for singles? It's hard shopping and cooking for 1 person without wasting food or getting bored of eating the same thing due to cooking in large portions for recipies.
Also, what happened if you found yourself in a situation where you ate a lot of carbs after doing keto for a month? Did you get sick? Just wondering what would potentially happen if I went a little off keto on a casino trip.
Finally, did anyone get grumpy with family, friends and coworkers? Kinda wanna be prepared for that!
Thanks for this thread!

Yes during keto 1st 2-3 weeks can become irritable easily
Start out with cutting out all sugar drinks as well and be sure to drink at least 100oz of water a day
Thanks, Derek. Luckily the only sugar drinks I occasionally indulge in are orange juice and milk. No soda or other sugary drinks.
I need to up my water as that's another big thing I've neglected and I know it's crucial to insure kidneys don't get fucked up in keto.

No alcohol on keto diet for at least a month to really get the body into fat burning mode
One more thing..do any of you use an app to track your keto?
I spent the last 3 hours researching and planning and writing up a shopping list.
Then it hit me. Buying the right foods is a fine first step, but what meals will I eat? How will I know I'm on track. I'm such a stickler for doing things the right way, I need to track all this in a way that won't take 100% of my time.
I looked at the app store and found one app that has a shit ton of functionality. You can even scan bar codes to track your food.
I bought the 3 month plan for $15.99.
You don't have to pay for anything for the basic tracking functionality.
I'll let you know how it works.

There’s nothing like cooking meat on an open flame. Used garlic salt and pepper and oh my it was so good!
We made steak sandwiches with one and will be eating one tomorrow as steak and eggs for breakfast!

Been reading this thread for a couple of days, not doing Keto however, I am trying to eat healthy. Started Weight Watchers again...I agree not dieting, a lifestyle change.
That's great RiverSong. I did Weight Watchers after college and lost 60 pounds.
I agree about lifestyle change vs. diet.
Diet sounds temporary.
I like to use the term "program."
I look at this as starting a keto program that I will eventually modify to probably a Paleo program because keto is nut a good way to go if you're looking to exercise or do muscle building activities.

@nancypants, that looks so good! Corn is one of the things I really miss on keto, and I have already promised myself one ear at the peak of the season for a special treat!
@RiverSong Weight Watchers is a fabulous program. I think it has improved greatly over the years so there are many more choices, and you don't get that feeling of deprivation. I hope you will share pictures of some of your meals!
Unfortunately when I got this iPad I’m using, I lost the ability to post pictures...and I’m too impatient to figure it out.
Corn is a no-no on keto? Never would have known that! I packed a morning snack for work days this week. Hopefully will keep me from reaching for the chips or M&Ms. It's a start!

After watching "The Magic Pill", thinking keto is really the way to go. Had my Mom watch some segments of it to show her how it help aboriginal tribes, autisic children, people with asthma, people with diabetes, going to have her try to change. She will not change 100%. I can not change 100%. As much good stuff as I grow for this diet, I also grow potatoes and corn and will so enjoy the freshness and goodness of these crops. Already into the potatoes. Frying them in olive oil, boiling them, roasting them, etc.
Booked a trip to AC with my Mom June 12 - 15. Hope if she will try to change now, we will be in better shape. Not to say this may be her last "real" casino trip, just never know. Want her to feel the best as can be for it. She is super excited.
My dinner tonight field greens, tomatoes, one egg,cucumbers carrots and one small chicken breast cooked in EVOO.. yummyhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a245a0b3d1.jpg
