Ladies, as we open up from carnivore to keto, we’re adding more variety, not changing everything overnight. 🙌🏼 The Phase 2 guides give you options. You don’t need to add them all at once! 1. Start with ONE new food. Keep your familiar meat, fish or eggs as the base. Add a few tablespoons of well-cooked zucchini, spinach or bok choy. Keep the rest of the meal familiar so it’s easier to notice how you feel. 2. Start small & build gradually. Give each new food a couple of days before introducing another. If it feels comfortable, gradually increase the portion. You can work through broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, mushrooms, avocado and olives the same way. Start nuts with just a few macadamias or pecans, not a big handful. Pumpkin, onion and plain Greek yogurt contain carbs too, so keep portions modest. Being on a keto list doesn’t mean unlimited amounts will keep you in ketosis. 3. Pay attention to how you feel. Watch for bloating, gas, cramps, reflux, nausea, diarrhea or constipation. Also notice any new headaches, unusual tiredness, itchy skin or changes in sleep. If an addition makes you uncomfortable, pause it and return to meals you tolerate. Note what you ate, how much, when symptoms started & how long they lasted. Don’t push through persistent or painful symptoms; get medical advice. More variety, at your own pace. What food are you looking forward to adding back first? P.S. I want to caution everyone: I’ve seen with my own eyes progress stall during this transition to keto. One reason carnivore can work well is its simplicity. Adding more foods brings more choices, and portions & total intake can creep up without you noticing. So treat this like carnivore, with a little veg & a few of these other options added in—not a completely different way of eating. If you’re unsure about something you’re adding, note the portion, take a photo & ask ChatGPT to help estimate the carbs and whether it fits within your daily keto intake. Include the ingredients & what else you’ve eaten that day. It can help you estimate, but a photo or AI answer can’t guarantee you’ll stay in ketosis.
