Keto For A Beginner Diet
Starting a ketogenic diet as my Dr advised that I must reduce carbs, for I have high blood sugar and high cholesterol.
A keto diet basically is a very low carb and high fat diet. It’s aim is to get the body burn fat for energy and not carbohydrates.
There are many apps that assists to plan a keto meal. Since I moved from the city back to the village, I’m just using what I can find locally.
My meal yesterday was fish freshly caught in the sea. Grilled red emperor fillet with salad.
There’s abundance of fish 🐟 in the sea. All it takes is to go fishing 🎣 or diving in the night. We also have abundance of stuff I don’t eat like lobsters🦞 , crabs 🦀, squid 🦑 edible sea shells 🐚 etc in the remote island paradise where I live.

At the most basic level, Keto is when you change your diet to match a low-carb, high-fat diet. Your body uses pre-existing fat as fuel, not the carbs you eat! Although keto meals allow for some tasty fats, it can sometimes be challenging to follow a low-carb diet, especially if you have eaten carbs before! Keto is a pretty strict diet, but it's one of the main reasons people can lose so much weight by following it. At times, following the keto lifestyle can seem incredibly tough, and you may want to take a break.
