Level Up Your Health
I’ve been posting a lot of post-workout meals on instagram lately, and it’s led to some questions about how I work out on a daily basis. So, I thought I’d put together a post here with my usual weekly workout schedule, as well as the […]
A quick note, this post is not at all sponsored! This is just a collection of the apps I use every day to stay on top of my wellness and fitness! Usually when I post a screenshot of a workout or my nutrition diary to […]
Happy Friday, everyone! Time for another FAQ Friday question, and this time we talk about why you might not be losing weight on keto and even why you may gain weight on keto.
Oh hey, friends. If you didn’t know, I have endometriosis (among other things) and it’s a real pain every month. Over the years I’ve tried pretty much everything I’ve come across to help alleviate some of the symptoms, to varying degrees of success. Every once […]
Hi, friends! Long time no podcast, eh? Well, I’m back from my cookbook-induced hiatus, and am excited to start recording podcasts again! I’ve decided to get back into the swing of things slowly with a shorter podcast as part of a new “Friday FAQ” series, […]
Hi, guys! This post is going to deviate a bit from the typical format, because I want to give an update on what projects I’m currently working on. Because I’m a one-woman show and do everything involved with running MeatFreeKeto.com (and this site), from website maintenance to customer service to social media and actually creating recipes/writing posts/taking photos (plus, making more meal plans and recipe books on occasion), it can sometimes take a while for a project to come into fruition. So, I thought it might be nice to let you all in on what’s been going on behind the scenes.
A few of you have been asking if I could start making recipe and “what I eat in a day” videos. This is something that’s been on my radar for a while, but will probably be a summer project. I’ve never made videos, so it’ll take a bit of time and practice to actually put something together! I promise this is something I’m working on, though!
I haven’t given up on this! I’ve been working on a new format – interviewing fellow vegan ketoers or vegan gamers just to get a glimpse of their daily lives and healthy eating/living routines. :)
It’s been six months since I’ve introduced a new meal plan, but I promise there are some new ones on the way! I listened to your requests and have a few coming up down the pipeline with totally new recipes and for some different dietary needs. So, look forward to some more meal plan variety in the near future!
It takes a while to make a meal plan, because not only do I have to come up with the recipes from scratch (I want to give value by having totally different recipes than what are in the other plans/my book/the site), but then I have to put them together in a way that meets macro and micronutrient needs, while also being reasonable and not overly expensive. Then, there’s testing the plan to make sure it’s actually do-able in a real-world setting (thank you, testers!) and then finally, I format everything and publish it.
I don’t have another print book in the works yet (it’s been less than six months!), but I do have an ebook I’ve been working on with a bunch of new recipes. I’m really excited about it and can’t wait to share it with everyone! These recipes are separate from the ones going into the meal plans. So, even more recipes to choose from!
As usual, I’m working on new recipes with the goal to post at least one per week. I’m also going through old recipes and re-taking some pictures (there are some doozies) while also clarifying instructions and adding weights to the ingredients lists. So, it’s been busy, and I’ve been eating a lot…
Silly, but I made some New Year’s resolutions and have actually been keeping up with them. One was to do yoga every day, even if it’s just a short, restorative practice and another was to read at least one book a week (on average). Both were in response to my life last year, where I basically didn’t read anything and didn’t really work out the entire time I was writing my book. Whoops. So, I’m kind of excited that I’ve gotten back to these activities, because I really enjoy them!
With the growing popularity of vegan keto and other low carb vegetarian ways of eating, there seem to be new and different styles popping up everywhere. One way of eating that I’ve been getting a lot of questions about lately is eco-keto and eco-Atkins diets. […]
When you think of the foods you can eat on keto, beans likely don’t come to mind. In fact, many keto blogs recommend avoiding legumes entirely. This is not one of those blogs. I went vegetarian almost two decades ago, and went vegan back around […]
In the past 6+ years that I’ve been blogging about vegan keto, I’ve gotten a lot of questions. For the better part of five years, I’ve mostly been asked, “is a vegan ketogenic diet possible?” But now, as more and more of you are diving into a plant-based low-carb way of eating, the questions have become a bit more diverse.
I’ve been answering these questions individually on social media and by email for a while now, and it occurred to me that having them all in one place would probably be helpful to you guys (and to me, as well!). So, here we go – my vegan keto FAQ. (more…)
Over the years, I’ve gotten loads of questions about veganism or plant-based eating and keto, and I thought I’d start writing responses down here instead of typing out the same long answer each time. :) One question that pops up a lot is “are you […]
