Today for Sunday afternoon lunch we had grilled chicken, broccoli, and mashed cauliflower. The store bought mashed cauliflower was something new we tried today. Per serving, it has 3g carbs and 3g fat and 60 calories. It was just ok. It was a little thin and still had that cauliflower after taste. We have tried to make our own mashed cauliflower before. Other than the fact it still has a cauliflower taste to it our biggest problem with making it from scratch is just that it makes the entire kitchen smell like cauliflower. Total calories for lunch 300 calories, carbs 5g, fat 5.7g, protien 35g.
As I was making lunch, I also snacked on some cracker cut cheese squares. 220 calories, fat 18g, protein 14g, carbs 0. Then after lunch I whipped up some heavy whipping cream and added a little swerve sweetener and cocoa powder to it. 4oz heavy whipping cream. 480 calories, carbs 1-2g, fat 48g, protien 0g.
The biggest thing to note here is the before and after lunch snacking was almost 700 calories. That's enough calories for an entire meal. Although, one of the biggest things with the Keto diet is to keep your carbs low, if you still consume more calories than you need during the day you will still not lose weight. Even worse you could even gain weight.
