Keto diet for me and my lady.

Ok so I have no experience what so ever on keto diets. This is what I have come up with. Keep in mind its for me and my lady. Help would be appreciated!

Meal 1: steak, eggs, bacon, cheese (portions will vary for her)

Meal 2: chicken, cheese

Meal 3: whey protein, peanut butter, 2 table spoons olive oil.

Meal 4: Pork chops/tuna, salad, bacon, cheese.

Meal 5: hamburger patties/lean mince, cheese and mayo.

Meal 6: whey protein, 2 table spoons peanut butter, 2 table spoons olive oil.

Would this work for the both of us? Any changes that need to be made?

drop all the cheese, drop the salad, tomatoes contain fructose which will kick her out of ketosis. have a cup of broccoli with dinner, the fibre will help with her number 2's.

theres a lot of fat in that diet, even for a keto diet. dont mix peanut butter and olive oil in the whey shake. choose one or the other. also 2 tablespoons of peanut butters a shit load. one will do the job

Lol @ number 2. Thanks. Will drop the cheese and salad and add broccoli.
For how long can we be on this diet? What sort of results can one expect, or is it difficult to say?

The two table spoons of peanut butter are for me... One for her? Or will one suffice for both of us?

Will choose between peanut butter or olive oil.

as long as you like, remember you need a weekly carb up meal to restore glycogen. the first week you could lose like 4 or 5kgs, but thats all water and glycogen. after that you looking anywhere around a kg or 2 a week (thats what happened in my case)

Weekly carb up meal will be on saturday. Can we eat anything?

2 tablespoons a lot. id go with one. maybe even drop the PB in one of your shakes and have 30 grams of nuts with it. good source of fat and will fill you up a little more

Too much peanut butter and too much cheese you have to work out how many carbs you are taking in and as long as you stay under 30g of carbs per day you will be fine. Try get light mayo has a little less carbs than normal mayo. Lots of water and low intensity cardio. Good luck to you both .

You can only eat 250g carbs in one session when you carb up.

Ok how's this,

Meal 1: steak, eggs, bacon

Meal 2: chicken, olive oil

Meal 3: whey protein, 30 grams nuts

Meal 4: pork chops/tuna, bacon

Meal 5: hamburger patties, mayo, cup broccoli

Meal 6: whey protein, table spoon peanut butter


Any better...?

200 grams of carbs. have your carb up meal the evening before one of your heavy workouts, like leg or chest day. try to keep the carbs clean, like some brown rice, oats, pasta, that type of thing. no mac donalds ha ha sorry bud

yeah much better

Try drop the bacon or only have it every now and then, It contains mostly fat and not allot of protien and they are not really good fats?

the fat in the bacon is ok. especially in the beginning, as they go along they can start dropping some of the fat in their diet. if im not mistaken the first week or so should be half fat half protein. isnt that so Gregb1?

Great! Thanks a lot guys. Ill post progress here as we go along!

Im not sure if it is half fat half protein but i know i had allot of fats and i cut out bacon as i read it contains mostly fat and it is not really good fats. I know in the beginning i only had around 15g carbs a day for the first 2 weeks and my weight just fell off during this time but i done no cardio at all,then when i started cardio i started eating around 25-30g carbs a day.

cool, good luck

Quite excited to try this diet...

it really works! i was on it for about 2 months and lost around 10Kgs (maybe a little less) i could post up some before and afters if you're interested?

Really good diet and it was easy to stick to, if i felt like something nice on the weekend i would go to wimpy and get 4 fried eggs a piece of worst and some bacon every now and then . I also lost allot on it around 25kg.


ADD: i even went to spur and got tbone and a little spinach a few times with no basting or sauce on.

Here is a before and after pic of me for some motivation.
