Most of these keto recipes can be made in less than 20 minutes, so you can’t say you’re too busy to prepare most of these. 

And you want to substitute any recipe you can head over to this page and look for another of my almost 1000 ketogenic diet recipes.

This keto plan incorporates Metabolic Intermittent Fasting using a 16/8ish approach.

For more information and Intermittent Fasting, specifically for women and doing so in a metabolic way read this article.

Fasting isn’t a requirement, but I’ve found a lot of success with my clients and customers fasting in the morning 2-3 times per week.

Do NOT fast for more than 3 times per week, especially if you’re a women. It can really do damage to your metabolism.

And definitely do not fast at all if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or have an insulin or thyroid related disease.

If you’re not sure if you should fast or not, comment on any of my articles on my blog and ask!

Week 1 

During your first week, you’re just learning the keto ropes, learning how to properly balance your macronutrients, potentially dealing with keto flu, and probably trying to navigate social pressures, etc…

The most important thing to remember is it’s NOT going to be easy, but it WILL be worth it.

So here are a few delicious and simple recipes to get you started. If you want a more in-depth keto meal plan and guide (plus accountability), I invite you to join my 3-Week Ketogenic Diet (almost 10,000 people have signed up!)

What To Do After 21 Days?

Ahh, the magical question! 

I’m not like most keto or intermittent fasting “experts” who say keto or fasting is the end all be all for diets.

In fact, I don’t believe you should subscribe to any ONE diet for the rest of your days.

That’s no fun. 

Personally, my wife and I do a keto, paleo, vegan, fasting, metabolic, healthy fat loss, and sometimes NO diet at all.

We mix it up and so should you.

So after your 21 days of keto fasting you should go out and eat a cheeseburger with loaded fries and have a cocktail.

Then you should probably sign-up for one of my programs of course! (I know, shameless plug).

I recommend my 3-Week Intermittent Fasting Diet because it really teaches you how to enjoy carbs, keto, and fasting all in one program.
