You made the decision that Keto is the lifestyle you want to try… you probably scoured the internet for information on the rules, looked for information on the how-to’s, searched Pinterest for keto recipes, and read all the books you could find.  AND NOW…. You are overwhelmed!

American Thanksgiving is coming up, and I’m reminded of this Coffee with Leta that we did last year right after Thanksgiving.

I thought it might be a good idea for you to see this video before Thanksgiving this year, so you can get some ideas for planning before the holiday (and those negative thoughts) happen!

Since we first began isolating, I’ve advocated for people to remain keto. I feel like the keto diet supports your health, and having good eating habits in place can make it easier to deal with anxiety and boredom. But for many people, remaining keto has been tricky. 

You may have decided that it’s time to get back to your usual keto diet, so I’ve put together some tips to help you get back to keto after a break.

Finally! When the cold season hits, I LOVE comfort foods and sharing them with my family and friends! If you’re into entertaining, we’ve moved from outdoor get-togethers to cozier (and maybe even formal) indoor parties.

Monday is my ‘fresh start’ day. No matter what has happened over the past week or weekend, I always think of Monday as my ‘clean slate’ day.

Even if you’ve veered off… if Monday is always your start day (or whatever that day is for you), you can always start fresh with renewed vigor.

I always go on vacation with a plan in mind. I do not claim to be 'keto perfect' 100% of the time, especially when I am on vacay. I strive to be as low carb as possible, but I know my carb load will be higher than normal so I don't want to throw a ton of fat into the mix (carbs + fat = weight gain)

I’m going to tell you a not-so-carefully guarded secret.

I don’t always track my macros. Macros are macronutrients, those bits and pieces that make up the nutritional side of food that you eat. Calories are just one part of your food. There’s also fat, carbs, and protein. These elements make up your macros.
