I may have failed to mention some low carb foods. This list is a general guide. If you want a food not listed, look up the carb count. Make sure it fits into your daily carb allowance. Also check the serving size.
The ideal carb count for a Ketogenic diet is 20 total carbs a day or under. Shop for the lowest carb foods. Reduce carbs and get plenty of fat and protein for fullness.

It is very important to have a good electrolyte drink/supplement. When you eat carbs your body holds onto water. When you cut carbs your body flushed water along with electrolytes. I have a discount link on my website lowcarbrevelation.com if interested.
Bottom line, Read labels carefully on packaged foods. Stay away from sugar and seed oils. Find the lowest carb foods possible.
