High Protein/Lo Carbers...Recipes and info

*BUMP*

I'm back on low carb. Three weeks in. I'm doing low carb but not keto. I'm maintaining a small calorie deficit, enough to lose 1 pound a week.

I was on keto for seven months last year, and once I got off it, I couldn't get back on.

Health concerns are forcing me back on low carb, but I'm doing the moderate low carb in the hope that I can maintain it. It seems to be sufficient to keep my blood sugar in check. And because of the calorie deficit, I'm losing weight.

So. I also think it's healthier to eat the extra veg that a moderate carb diet allows.

Don't eat many healthy carbs, black and white cookies do not count.

My big thing,though, is ordering 5 cases of Premier Protein shakes monthly. Only 160 cals with 30g Protein and 4g.Carb (1g sugar). As long as I keep hydrated, can drink several/day. It's close to my only source of protein. They actually taste pretty good, far cry from those horrid MetRx 60g shakes.

Well my bad cholesterol is way too high. It’s my own fault, genetically I am predisposed and have enjoyed way too much bacon and burgers while doing low carb. I’m working on more salads and less fatty meats.

I haven’t been diligent since I moved here a year ago, and I am feeling the weight gain.

Well it's not exactly a recipe, but it's cooking for me – a doctored up Adkins Stone Fired 3 Meat Pizza with added ground beef, ground chicken, spices, extra cheese and a small enough portion of sweet chili sauce to give it some kick while still keeping it low carb.

Ground beef cooked in my new electric skillet with dried onions, mushrooms, a few tomatoes, and some green beans. Served with a dollop of sour cream. May not sound great, but it's low carb and not too bad.

So good and I am stuffed.
