That is good going Bob, the weight should drop off if you stick with that. I have been doing it for 5 weeks now but I haven't counted carbs or calories, I have been dropping 1kg a week though. Have you looked at intermittent fasting? I say that coz you state you are skipping your midday meal, if you changed it to skipping breakfast you would be IF as well as Keto.

I will try skipping the breakfast instead as I could probably wait until midday. If you don't count carbs is there not a danger of going out of keto because a lot of foods that we think carry a negligible count are quite heavy on them.

You are right about hidden carbs, I have researched quite a lot so am fairly knowledgeable about foods. It is working for me on every count, I am losing weight and sleeping really well, feel good, am always satiated and very positive about it being a lifetime thing.
Some good info about IF and Keto in the link.
 
I've made up a veggie version of this just out of interest,not exactly the same as it's quite difficult to do for a veggie,2 wks in and i've lost 9 pounds,it feels wrong to eat lots of fat albeit good fats as i have been going low fat for years but i'm not hungry and the results are there,the hardest thing is not having bread but atkins do crispbread ,it's shite but fills a need,also miss fruit,just having some strawberries and a website said rhubarb in small quantities is ok,i'm using keto pills as well,the ones that was on dragons den that they all invested in

I reckon I could do veggie keto, however, I'm a meat eater and meat is my favourite thing to eat and I see it as natural, animals eat animals and all that, which I'm sure you've probably heard numerous times before.

But if I was to take meat away, I reckon I could get along ok with avacado, eggs, cheese, olives, double cream, mounds of greens, nuts, coconut oil, olive oil, vegetable stock, MCT oil and so on. There's plenty of veggie ways to get the healthy fats in.

Good luck with it. Hope it makes you feel as good as it does the majority of us, and also remember that salt is also your friend, which again goes against everything we've been advised on in the past.
 
I didn't think veggies ate fish?

Mackerel dripping in extra virgin olive oil is my go to fish.
No i don't eat fish or eggs,i was watching a prog on the beeb last week about carbs and they said you can eat bread if you freeze it first then toast it from frozen,i'm not going to do that though,i only did this as i was curious but it's going so well i'll keep going,maybe read a bit more about it as well
