KETO FOODS I No Longer Eat Regularly

Even though they are considered keto, there are some foods I no longer eat or rarely eat because they cause weight gain, inflammation and don't agree with me. Not everyone is the same as me and if you are able to enjoy these foods, then do as you please. But if you experience any of the symptoms I did after having these foods, maybe consider cutting back or eliminating them all together. Up to you!!

I have been living the ketogenic lifestyle now two years. I have maintained my normal weight of 111 pounds. I only eat Whole Foods and never any prepackaged Keto foods. I gave up sodas cold Turkey 25 years ago and never tried diet sodas. I am 61 years old and everyone thinks I am not a day over 45.

16 weeks Keto and Muscle Training and I've lost 47 lbs 💪🏿

As a note: if you are just starting your low carb journey, if the processed keto food and keto desserts and diet soda helps you stay on the diet, then keep them. You'll be able to wean yourself off of them later, once you're motivated by the weight loss and craving carbs less.

I've never had issues with any of the foods mentioned in this video for two main reasons: resistance training and OMAD. If the intermittent fasting is there, it's a massive difference

[katydai]

I do "Kinda-Keto" - low sugar lower carbs but definitely not hard-core. I do intermittent fasting and have lost 60lb in one year! I am no longer pre-diabetic, my acid reflux went away and my joints don't hurt anymore! I love this lifestyle!

#1: heavy cream- high calories
#2: cheese - some bad effect to your body
#3: butter - no need more fat from butter
#4: diet coke - more hungry if you drink it, high pressure on the blood vessels and the blood pressure increase
#5: packaged keto foods - this can have some unhealthy ingredients
#6: keto sweets and desserts
#7: raw broccoli- high amounts of insoluble fiber, cooked broccoli still okay

I just started keto in June. 30 lbs gone so far. My go-to sweet treat from the beginning is just enough two-good mixed berry yogurt to thinly coat 1/4 cup of blueberries with a tablespoon of whipped cream...As I lose weight, I know it will also have to go. But for now, it has tremendously helped me with my sweet tooth! I knew from the beginning all the keto desserts were for people who had already lost weight and then only occasionally. I know the sodas have to go also; I'm just not ready...I already had to give up coffee. I can't drink it unless sweetened. Little keto baby steps.

Finally! I’m so happy to see this video 👏🏼 👏🏼
I have the hardest time explaining to my friends and family that try or are on keto, why I don’t eat certain things even if they are “keto friendly”.
Being on keto/low carb/ ketovore for 4 1/2 years, I’ve done so much research. To be honest, reading the ingredients list on some of the things that say “keto” makes me nauseous. Ultimately, like you said, it has to be something that works for you and your goals. I didn’t start out this way and I’ve definitely tweaked my eating a few times over the years as I’ve gained valuable information.

Total weight loss since starting keto is 113 lbs. total from my heaviest ever is about 144 lbs. I’m 57 😀

I've been kicking around the idea of quitting diet Dr. Pepper. Thank you for pointing out the correlation between poor gut health and depression. I've been struggling with that. Maybe healing my gut will heal my 'heart'.

That’s crazy, it was just two days ago that I realized just how many calories I was getting from my heavy whipping cream. Also from the cream cheese that I eat. I’ve been consuming lots more cream cheese than usual. And I’ve gained some weight. This video was right on time. Thank you!🙏❤️

I have been following IF and Keto for a few years now and I have lost a lot of weight (-170lbs). I credit IF for most of it but I found Keto really helps control my inflammation. I went from at least 2 parts of my body being in constant pain on any given day to zero. Your video (which was great!) just made me look into why I get a stuffy nose after I eat dairy and it is likely inflammation! Not severe enough to make my wrists and hands or knees shut down but enough that I can't breathe through my nose for a couple of hours (and if it is doing that then there is definitely inflammation going on elsewhere in my body). I am going to cut out dairy for a few days and see how it goes. Thanks!

This is great and very informative. I "tried" keto before but only a couple weeks ago watched Dr Berg break it all down and I realized I did NOT do it correctly! Now, I got a hang on it and I'm actually seeing incredible benefits. I'm on week 3 and I feel great!

[SevenTailedWolf]

Thank you so much for this video. I just started and it’s good to know these extra tips..

[BurbankKid]

I tried the ultra low carb for a time but found that I was getting weak, no energy whatsoever. As soon as I raised the amount of carbs I started feeling much better and still maintained my desired weight. Everything in moderation people. You have to change up from time to time so that your body doesn’t adapt. The more strict you are the worse it gets. Every one’s body chemistry is different, you have to find a healthy medium that works for you.

[CarbageMan]

That's a pretty good list. Thanks for sharing it.

Even then, after five years, I'm pretty much high-protein, low-carb, and rarely in deep ketosis. I think my body has just gotten good at using ketones so they rarely show up deeply in my blood unless I fast over a day and get a lot of cardio. I'm good with that, actually, as long as my glucose stays low, or if it spikes it doesn't spike too high and stay up long. At this point that's what matters most to me.

I've taken to severely limiting cheese and nuts, and pretty much all processed "keto" food is basically a trap or otherwise an issue for me. 95% of the time, I make something wildly simple that's mostly meat and a little cruciferous or very keto-friendly veg. I do get an avocado just about every day in the world that's not a whole day of fasting. After a workout, I allow myself a collagen shake with berries and aminos, and I can see my glucose go right up and right back down.

I've avoided keto bread and tortillas (I make pretty simple keto sandwich thins for burgers), but I have to admit a couple times a year I like to pick up a pack of keto hot dog buns into which I can put clean, 100% grass-fed polish sausages from Teton Waters Ranch. It's too bad I can't find clean buns, because they're just too much of a hassle to try to make, and I've never found a great recipe anyway. 

PS: Sometimes, I'll just make a "bunless polish sandwich" instead, with the polish sausages, caraway, a slice of swiss and top with deli mustard and sauerkraut. I eat that out of a small casserole dish with a knife and fork.

The one thing I've noticed whenever people talk about Keto is weight loss. Its like the only reason they do it is for weight loss. I do Keto-vore now not for weight loss but for healthy eating. I have no need for weight loss. No one ever talks about sustaining a constant weight. When I started Keto I went from 205 to a crazy low of 160. I'm 60 years old 6-1 and looked like a T-shirt on a wire hanger way too thin. I now maintain 175. Eating mostly Carnivore with Keto splashed in. Its easier eating this way actually. I don't shy away from Heavy cream or butter and haven't had any sodas for many many years and no breads of any kind. I'm a carpenter and active with my job so that probably makes up for calorie burn. I don't exercise other than my work. labs are perfect!

[trixieknits]

I think our body composition changes over time of being keto. I can no longer lose weight just eating my normal keto foods. I have had to cut back.

[mariannerayo]

Thank you. I have been on clean keto (one ingredient foods) for 4.5 years. I lost 60 lbs. in the beginning but still have 15 I would ideally like to drop. They are not coming off (it would really help if I stopped alcohol consumption). It would def. help if I exercised even a little. Your tips about limiting heavy cream, butter, cheese and diet soda and artificial sweeteners really resonated with me. The hardest thing for me is to give up my one diet soda a day and to drink plain water. I always drink some of the no-cal fruity squirty additives to my water. Tastes delicious but I know it is as bad a diet pop. Such a bummer because I am really doing everything else right. I still love keto.

[taraswhimsiesfakery]

I have issues with all mentioned as well. So nice to hear someone is on keto but listens to their body and adjusts for that. Im back on keto but will be adjusting for my special needs as well. Thank you.

[deannamadrigal]

It's hard for me to drink just water, I do use electrolytes but I also find carbonated water to be very helpful. I love your videos
