Default Re: Induction Menu Check please

Yes so I think what you can do to improve is
Eat a little bit more. At least don't go hungry. It is not going to help you.
I think one reason guys lose so much easer than us girls sometimes is because they are stuck up on calories and they are more likely to make good use of the fulness factor. The body will be very hesitant to let go of the fat if it thinks there is not enough food around. It will slow down its own metabolism to compensate. You do NOT want that.


Cut down on cheese. We are limited to 3-4 oz of cheese.
Most of your carbs looks to be dairy carb. They should be veggie carbs. So cut down on dairy and make sure you have your 3 cups of veggies.

Add more fat. You are going to need it to stay full and to get into ketosis. Eat some butter with your chicken. Or more oil with your veggies. Fat should be around 65% of your calories.

Try to think of more things to eat that chicken. You may have feathers growing if you eat like that every day. Or at least you'll be so sick of your menu that you'll cheat. You do not want that. There are tons of wonderful things to prepare and eat.

Drink plenty of water.

Good luck. I know you can do this.
