Keto Diet Plan
Get Into Ketosis Fast!
One of the hardest parts of switching to the keto way of eating is figuring out what to eat and following/calculating macros. Our keto diet plan will help make that easy. Calculating Macros can be confusing and discouraging, causing beginners to get frustrated and give up before they start. I have personally seen this struggle many times.
Keto Menu Plan
There are a lot of keto diet meal plans out there, so we had an experienced keto chef put together a simple meal plan for you that is different from the rest. Do not over think this, simply make the food items listed below and eat. DON'T calculate macros to start keto. Fear not, you heard correctly. I repeat, no calculating macros. Just follow the plan and do not cheat. Absolutely no grains, pasta, breads, baked goods etc. Eat what is on the menu below to quickly maximize chances of ketosis fast to burn fat for fuel.
How to Get Into Ketosis Fast
This FREE keto diet menu plan is perfect for the beginner just starting out. We kept it simple and possible. Even if you don't cook you can do this! The most common average keto macros is around 75% fat, 20% protein and 5% carbs. The keto plan below was formulated by those macros.
Once this week is up, we can not guarantee you will be in ketosis, however this keto plan is optimized to use fat for weight loss and is based off the most common strict keto foods.
What is Ketosis?
I'm going to keep it very simple here, because we are not doctors. Here is our basic understanding and explanation.
Ketosis is the medical term used to describe the state at which your body is forced into burning fat for fuel rather than carbs. The idea is that eating more fat adapts your body to burn the fat you have eaten and the excess fat your body is storing.
A "normal" diet of high carbs can cause weight gain when unused carbs are converted to sugar then stored as fat. The reason it is so easy to "get kicked out of ketosis", a term heard often, is because the body wants to run off carbs first. Therefore, eating more than a certain amount of carb grams daily (usually higher than 40-50) will tell your body to go back to carbs for fuel, not fat. It is actually very easy to understand, there is just unfortunately so much mis-information out there now.
Fat for Weight Loss
The first 7 days, Never mind counting the carb grams or logging anything into an app. Follow this keto diet menu plan for fast keto adaption that will have you effortlessly burning fat for weight loss.
This keto plan is 7 days, However, you can also feel free to continue this same same keto diet plan program the following week. Hunger cravings usually start to disappear after a few days making it easier to continue eating the keto way successfully. Ultimately letting you make your own meal plan for the future at which point you can use a keto calculator to get your macros and daily carb amount.
What is Keto Flu?
Again, we are not doctors, but will provide a simple explanation. Keto flu is a term often used by those who follow the keto diet. In the beginning as the body becomes fat adapted flu like symptoms may occur. Headache, dizziness, fatigue, constipation and bloating to name a few. The time frame varies, but most see these symptoms subside about 2-3 weeks after being in ketosis.
