My normal inclination is to eat a high-fat diet. I have my doubts about the ketone diet, but if it works, I will probably do it naturally. Everything I like is high-fat. My favorite foods are milk, ice cream, cheese, yogurt, avocados, bacon, nuts, and chocolate. The hardest thing for me is to get protein because I often do not have a nice meat just lying in the frig ready to be eaten. I don't like to cook, so making recipes is a chore I try to avoid. I like grabby food; that's how I like to eat - grab a big, fresh avocado, a small plate, and some Italian dressing to dip it in, then peel and eat! No cooking, few dishes, little clean-up. I like fruit, but I don't like cold stuff touching my lips. I found that if I heat up a piece of cold fruit in the microwave for a moment, it is better and less irritating to eat. Veggies are okay, but most have little taste. It may be because I buy in the grocery store where they were picked unripe and shipped. We have a farmer's market, but it's not convenient to my house. I am lazy and will not go out of my way to drive to a farmer's market or co-op. Counting calories is not too hard for me. Luckily, I am not one of those people who thinks about food all the time. I don't think about it until I start to get really hungry. Then I mostly just want to get myself unhungry, but as long as the food does that, I'm cool with it. I like to eat close to nature - a handful of nuts and some almond milk. Quick, easy, nutritious. Being lactose intolerant helps me to keep my weight down as there are many foods I can't eat without becoming sick. I gained a lot when I was taking care of my aging father because he required three cooked meals a day plus snacks. He passed in December, so now I cook zero to two meals per day. We eat out a lot. I really like Fat Secret even though I don't do the ketone diet. I am excited to see how well it works for others.
