Mr. & Mrs. Keto

4 years of success with the #keto #diet! We want to learn from others and share what we've learned along the way. Website soon!

@jla734 Oh, it definitely was. The sausage inside was a tad overpowering, but that's a pretty good problem to have.

Found at local butcher shop. A slice of this mixed with overeasy eggs? Heaven. #keto #ketodiet #lowcarb

This guy bashes people for eating butter on keto. Shames people for doing keto the "wrong" way. Then describes coconut oil as "the ultimate food to have on a ketogenic diet." Dude, make up your mind.

@ifbacongrewont1 @mixon_bridget Regardless of how the body breaks it down, my point was that bacon has nutritional value.

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

I often see keto described as "extreme." You basically cut out sugar, grains, and starches. There's still plenty to eat. How is that so extreme?

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@ifbacongrewont1 @mixon_bridget Sorry, but I don't follow. I don't see how that has to do with what we were talking about.

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@ifbacongrewont1 @mixon_bridget Zero biological benefit? It has fat and protein. Calories the body uses for energy. I acknowledge there are downsides, but it certainly has nutritional value.

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@0Kacie Right on! I couldn't sustain anything else either. In college I tried just eating less calories and swimming. Always grabbing for snacks. Maybe 5 pounds of weight loss. Keto has been very sustainable and has gotten me way healthier.

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@ifbacongrewont1 @mixon_bridget To clarify, butter and bacon isn't all I eat. I'm just not scared of those things.

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@biter_meat @mixon_bridget I see what you did there.

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@SarahBear07 @blikethecheese @meggggmarie @GinaNixonHerna1 It may not be sustainable for a lot of people. But I'm approaching 5 years and have no reason to quit in sight. Caloric deficit is important, even on keto, but just eating less calories never worked for me. Always hungry and grabbing for snacks. All my organs are fine.

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@SarahBear07 THIS! I see people obsessing over ingredients lists. "Sugar in ingredients. Not keto." Amounts matter. If it was too much sugar it would be reflected in the nutrition. Macros are king.

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@mixon_bridget @RiveraEdTeach Oh, wow! Glad to hear it has helped you out!

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@mixon_bridget @RiveraEdTeach Well if my brain is dead at least my body is in the best shape it's ever been in. Well... After I get rid of that holiday carb binge. 😆

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@RiveraEdTeach @mixon_bridget Gotta love that "your brain NEEDS carbs" schtick. In my first year of keto I had exactly two cheat days. If my brain absolutely needed carbs to survive wouldn't I be brain dead by then?

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@TylerSalmonsen I added guac to the carnitas bowl, too.

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@ChipotleTweets Exactly. The keto bowl has less ingredients. Why does it cost the same?

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

Hey, @ChipotleTweets, why are we still paying for rice and beans in your keto bowl?

[Mr. & Mrs. Keto @MrAndMrsKeto]

@RuledMe Not having to eat every few hours to feel full. The elimination of heartburn is also nice.
