why not just eat some chocolate or pastries?

just dont fucking binge

>>5549119
70% dark chocolate.

>>5549127
Just eat dark chocolate. It has less sugar (not sure if it's keto-level though) and it's actually good for you and promotes weight loss. Don't eat a ton though.

None of you will ever make it

>>5549151
neither will you

a diet is a lifestyle change, not an arbitrary draconian meal plan that you turn on and off

>>5549143
it is keto
>>5549127
that will throw you out of ketosis

>>5549119
There's keto friendly cheesecakes out there, buddy. DuckDuckGo or Startpage it. For me, when I needed a sweet dessert I'd blender frozen raspberries with heavy cream. There's different thoughts on the subject, but I didn't get thrown out by eating 50g of carbs. It's probably user specific though.
Chocolate is fine, chocolate with sugar added is not. Moderate it! Also, good luck.

>>5549190
T-thanks.

>>5549190
youre only doin it on and off anyway

>implying that 25lbs I lost was all water
>implying I don't have two less fat rolls on my belly

>>5549210
>implying its from the keto diet and not a caloric deficit

>>5549210
>>5549214

I have been on Keto a few times and I agree with the second Anon who states it's because of caloric deficit. The only reason I use keto for cutting is because it is easier for me to stay full without eating over my TDEE

>>5549214
But that's kind of the point. Your body is burning fat for calories, so you get to eat a lot of fat, so that you feel full, so that you can eat at a calorie deficiency without feeling hungry.
What did you think the diet was?

What I did that was really tasty was make pudding using the sugar free packets that Jell-O sells. Then just put whipped cream on it and it's tasty and satisfying as fuck though sometimes I end up eating more than I should since pudding isn't very filling. Also it's a bitch to make since it always sticks to the bottom of the pot when I'm making it even if I stir the whole time.

pure chocolate has no carbs

Try some chocolate PB for spreads and some PB shakes with cocoa powder

>>5549515
Thanks anon. That shake sounds interesting. What is it? Milk, pb, and cocoa powder? How much of each? Any egg in there?

>>5549656

Milk and peanut butter both have a significant amount of carbohydrate

>>5549119
dip strawberries (low carb fruit) or nuts in unsweetened chocolate and then while it's still warm dip it in sugar free jello (I recommend peach or strawberry)

You can make a low carb frosting with sugar free torani chocolate syrup (or davincis) and cocoa powder for a thickener, if you thicken it even more you can make truffles

Carb smart ice cream and ice cream bars

chocolate cheesecake with a nut crust

unsalted pork rinds dusted with cinnamon and a little artificial sweetener

make a buttery cauliflower crust and drizzle it with chocolate sauce and whipped cream

>>5549151

95-99% dark choclate
Selfmade keto brownies from almond flour / baking cocoa and splenda
And so on just look some keto / atkins recipes up

>>5549752
PB shouldn't have that much if you use a non sugared one.

>>5549311
This
I lost like 80lbs 2 years ago with keto in about 6 months

>>5549656
Cocoa powder with a bit of Stevia as a sweetener make for a very good zero carb hot chocolate almost indistinguishable from the more traditional thing.

>>5549119
Okay I have the same thing going on. Here are my two things that help me deal with it. One is my faux chocolate mousse ( you can freeze this for an ice cream substitue) it is not low in calories and fat.

5 1/4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, coarsely chopped or 1/4 cup of unsweetend cocoa.
14 ounces cold heavy cream
3 large egg whites
1/2 -ounce Stevia
Place chocolate in a large bowl set over hot pot of simmering water or a double boiler if you have on. Stir chocolate until melted. Turn off the heat and let stand.

Beat the cream it forms soft peaks. Set aside and hold at room temperature. With a mixer, whip egg to soft peaks. Gradually add the stevia and continue whipping until firm.

Remove the chocolate from the bowl and using a whisk, fold in the egg whites all at once. When the whites are almost completely incorporated, fold in the whipped cream. Cover the mousse and refrigerate for approximately 1 hour or until set.

I find adding a touch of vanilla makes this wonderful and it gets rid of the cravings.

My other suggestion is almond flour pancakes with agave maple syrup fairly low carb and they are low on the glycemic index.

>>5550850
I forgot 8 ounces of heavy cream has 6.6 carbs in it but again low on the glycemic index.

>>5549119
Eat it on the one day every two weeks or so when you are supposed to eat carbs.

>>5549159

Why not just get better eating habits rather than cutting out an amazingly large range of foods out?

Carbs make up probably 70-80% of my diet, I eat them every meal and they're the base of most dinners, yet I have a BMI of 19.

>>5551905

Because people want easy, and blaming all their problems on the big-bogeyman-of-the-decade is easier than improving their dietary habits overall. It's much simpler to blame carbs (or fat, or gluten, or whatever other fad happens to be going round at the time)

>>5549159

i only do keto for the appetite control.

it's the only way i can comfortably stick to 1,500 calorie limit each day.

This is terrible, but worked for me.

Heavy whipping cream
Sugar free chocolate pudding

That's it. Figure the ratio of cream to pudding you want, but it's pretty thick. You could probably get creative with heavy cream and cocoa powder if you don't want pudding mix, but when I did keto, it was the lowest carb, biggest chocolate bang for my buck that I tried. I never did buy anything marketed specifically to low-carb diets, though, so maybe there's a processed food in a box that would work, too.

>>5551956
>>5551999
I don't understand how people get eating habits like this. Like if I eat a regular three meals a day it'll get me 1800~ calories, and I will not feel the need to snack inbetween, if I eat anymore (portion sizes that would push it over 1800 or snacking) I end up feeling uncomfortably full to the point of where it makes me feel like I'm going to puke (but I don't). So like how do people even manage to get into a state of being able to eat so much?

>Forgoing carbs like bread and rice and whatever has been a bit annoying but not hard. It's the chocolate and pastries that get me.

>I could get rid of all the carbs that were good for me, but I still crave the shitty ones

keto dieters, everybody

>>5551956
You have no idea what you're talking about. You have no idea what other people are thinking.

>>5551956
How the fuck is cutting out all carbs considered 'easy' to you?

>>5552041
People are different. Crazy, ain't it?

>>5552113
more like everyone, all the time. It's always harder to cut out the shitty food. I don't get your point. He's just saying that it's hard to give up junk food. "lol keto dieters amirite" You make no sense.

>>5549119
Eat a small amount of chocolate and then do heavy cardio afterwards. Burn the carbs and you won't get kicked out. I do this all the time when I do 5ks and I've been in keto continuously. YMMV of course. Everyone is different.

>>5551999
>>5552041
Jesus christ. Are you two skeletons?
I need to eat a little over 3k calories a day to maintain weight and I'm only 5'10" 165lbs

>>5552157
Carbs get shit on because junk foods (soda, donuts, potato chips, etc.) are carb-laden. The majority of healthy shit has carbs, too. This is partly because the majority of FOOD in general contains carbs. Rice, oats, beans, lentils, fruits, vegetables except for a few leafy greens, nuts, seeds, eggs, milk, cheese, shit, pretty much the only "carb-free" foods are certain leafy greens, oils, fats, meat, and protein powder. Why would you try to eschew carbs when they are everywhere, knowing that weight loss is just calories in vs calories out? And if you're worried about muscle, as long as you get enough protein, the rest of the calories don't really matter for fat loss vs. lean mass loss.

>It's always harder to cut out the shitty food.
I've never had to "cut it out" because I don't buy it, it's just funny that someone's forcing themselves to not eat carbs and they would sooner reach for a chocolate bar than an apple because they are that desperate for carbs.

It's like /fit/iots can't into nutrition.

>>5552189
the second guy is either fat and dieting or is on a cut

I eat around 3000 kcal/day and do the bare minimum of exercise and I'm still just at the lower end of an acceptable bmi. The idea that 3k or even 4k kilocalories per day is massive is a joke. Fatties just lie to themselves about how much they really eat, never move ever, and that's why it sounds like too much to so many

keto sounds like a retarded word

>>5552237
ketosis sounds space-agey

>>5552240
Ketogenesis/Ketogenic sounds even more space agey

>We have just landed and surveyed the landscape. The environment is entirely ketogenic. Not a single carbohydrate can enter... or leave

>>5552218
nutrition is not necessarily the same thing as losing weight

>>5552211
Good points. Thanks for the sincere response bro.

>all these people going on about muh calories
>muh fad diet
>just eat less calories durr

Yes, calories are important but they aren't alone in deciding weight maintenance or nutrition. Not all calories are created equal. Here's a simple post about it I googled for you fuckers.

>>5552031
OP here. I tried that. It's tasty but a hastle to make since it sticks to the pot when I make it.

>>5552189
I'm the person who eats 1.8k~ cals and weigh 120lbs at 5'8", but I'm a gril and not trying to maintain any muscle mass.

>The only foods that don't contain carbs are proteins and fats
Yep, that'll do it.
But yea, this is correct. People can pack massive amount of calories in when they eat carbs. A bowl of spaghetti or rice can be 500 cals even without those delicious sauces.
Just go with more lean meats, complex carbs, fiber, and a good amount of "healthy" fat and you'll be good.

Keep crying your sugary tears

Not sure if it's what you're looking for but Quest bars taste pretty dessert-like and have good macros
