Non-Macro Counters 7-Day Ketogenic Diet Meal Plan

7K Shares

I’ve been a Holistic Nutritionist for over 10 years now and I’ve NEVER counted a single macro.

I’ve also personally consulted with over 1,000 people and helped over 25,000 people with my online programs without counting a single macro, point, calorie, or ketone.

As you can probably guess, I’m not very popular among my Keto “gurus” or weight loss “experts” friends and colleagues.

Good thing I’m not in this field to be popular, I want results for my customers and readers.

If you’re stressed about eating, keto, your weight, etc…then I want you to stop counting macros and start focusing on your habits.

Count how many habits you’re changing, that’s what really counts in the long run.

Counting macros, points, calories, etc…is NOT a sustainable way of eating.

Do you really want to count macros and obsess about calories or points for the rest of your life?

Me either…

And the good news? You don’t have to count anything to be successful with a ketogenic diet.

The Basics Of A Ketogenic Diet

The Keto Diet is a low carb, higher fat diet. In short: it transitions your body to burning stored body fat instead of relying on carbohydrates as its preferred source of energy.

To make this transition, you need to dramatically decrease your carb intake to below 50g per day – with some people going as low as 20-30g of carbs per day. This allows your body to draw from stored fat for energy, resulting in a metabolic state known as ketosis.

Health benefits include: a reduction in excess body fat, helping build lean muscle mass, enhanced energy and optimal mental clarity. At its core, the keto diet is made up of high-quality proteins, plenty of seasonal vegetables and healthy fats. You’ll need to cut out sugar, starchy carbohydrates and gluten.

A keto diet is pretty simple in theory (low carbs, high fat, moderate protein). But that doesn’t necessarily tell you exactly what to eat, what to avoid, or how much to eat.

So What Exactly Can You Eat on A Ketogenic Diet?

Healthy fats, e.g., coconut oil, butter or ghee, lard, tallow, bacon fat, olive oil
Meats, including organ meats
Eggs
Fish and Seafood
Non-starchy vegetables (especially green leafy vegetables)
Some berries

So a typical day’s meal might look like this:

Breakfast – eggs with bacon
Lunch – cup of bone broth with chicken salad
Dinner – steak with sauteed veggies followed by a keto dessert

The Purpose Of The Ketogenic Diet

The ketogenic diet has one purpose: to induce ketosis, burning fat instead of carbs.

The other diets have their own share of health benefits, particularly the Mediterranean diet, and all of them help with weight loss, though only the ketogenic diet helps you induce and maintain ketosis.

The focus of these diets is to eat healthy, whole foods that are as close to nature as possible. Even without the rigorous tracking involved on keto, you still have to watch the amount of food you are consuming on these diets in order to attain the benefits.

Keto is already considered “Atkins on steroids.” If you’re eager to gain the benefits of being in ketosis, the paleo and Mediterranean diets can be customizable to induce a ketogenic state.

Simply replace all of the bread and starchy root vegetables with more oil, fatty meats and fish and low-carb nuts.
