I did a blog a couple of weeks ago on PCOS and it got me thinking about fibroids (another complication of the uterus). Fibroids are growths that happen in a woman’s uterus. They are not cancerous, and often we don’t even know we have them if they don’t cause any...
We had friends who wanted to go to East Side Marios for lunch. It serves Italian food, specializing in fresh, warm bread, pasta, and pizzas. There is not much there for a keto person. But I did a little research and found a few options I thought I’d pass on to you....
Since starting keto three years ago, Bill and I have used cream cheese keto frosting. It seemed more on plan for us. But, back before keto, we loved buttercream frosting. It was sweet and smooth - in fact it was so sweet, it sometimes made you feel a bit sick, but in...
There is some debate on whether or not people should do keto long term or not. This has always confused me. Firstly, many people do keto to regulate health issues. If the health issues don’t go away, then they need to continue to eat a low-carb, high-fat diet,...
Saturday or “Caturday” as we call it in our house is a good chance to decompress, spend some time with the kitties, do a little prep and get ready for the week ahead with a new keto recipe. We tend to do a meal we are familiar with that is quick and easy so we have...
I am a perfectionist in many things, and keto is no exception. Now, some people think perfectionism is a good thing. Spoiler alert, it isn’t. I’ve been listening to the podcast Unf*ck Your Brain and the host, Kara Loewentheil, talked about what being a perfectionist...
Now, I know that we preach against prepackaged keto snacks but sometimes you just need the convenience. I will say that the United States seems to have more available than here in Canada. I’m very jealous. But these are available in Canada, so they should be...
PCOS stands for polycystic ovary syndrome. It happens when cysts develop along the outer edge of a woman’s ovaries. It is physically painful. PCOS is also mentally painful, as women often have a hard time getting pregnant. So what does this have to do with keto? Some...

Someone asked me recently if I did an egg fast while on keto. I’ll be honest, the thought of eating eggs for every meal kind of turns my stomach. I like eggs okay, but once in a while is good. I don’t want them morning, noon, and night. But, apparently, egg fasts are...
