The Ketogenic Diet Group

I am still having a tough time not wanting a pizza and stuff. I am resisting but still struggle. Only have been on diet 20 days and no cheating but can anyone share how they resist?

I have only been on for 4 days and the hardest was the first 23 days...yesterday was a snap. keep on keeping on.

Thanks Nanci

Most welcome

How are you going now Leighlun?
Check out the low carb recipes...I do not care for pizza so not a problem for me but deserts are...I think there were some low card pizza recipes, cauliflower crust. I just bout one at Costco to try it out it was ok but still not real low.

Leighlun, use a cauliflower crust for pizza.
You can make it or buy it ready.

I slowly melt mozzarella cheese in a pan I rubbed with a little bit of olive oil and make crustless pizza. I don't know where you live, but here we have a Papa Murphy's that makes a crustless pizza also that you take home and bake. One of my goto favorites as I load it up with toppings I love. https://www.thelittlepine.com/crustless-pizza

You CAN have low carb pizza- Make it with 4 cups of grated cauliflower and 2 beaten eggs for the crust. Cauliflower should be partially steamed before grating. Bake the crust til it is slightly cooked for about 20 minutes. I think the temperature was 400*. Then remove from the oven and add the sauce and vegetables. Use a minimal amount of a marinara sauce or pizza sauce. Look for one with little to no sugar. Then top with low carb veggies like mushrooms, green pepper, onion, cheese, and choice of protein, like precooked chicken, ham, bacon, bacon, or sausage. The edges where the crust starts should look somewhat browned and cheese should be thoroughly melted when done. This recipe was from a lady who did Atkins.
