Btw - I am watching my calories too while upping the fats so my snacks are not "too big" as someone cautioned. I also understand the concept of raising fats to get into ketosis. I've read the science.

I like to eat every 3-4 hours and prefer to spread my food throughout the day. My snacks are smaller than my main-meals but still consist predominantly of fat and protein.

Fresh cheeses are fine on induction PROVIDED they don't contain carbs as thickening agents (which most do)- check the labels. I found a brand of all-natural ricotta that is on par to cream cheese ie 1g carbs/serve.
