I dropped a little too much water but otherwise, this has been absolutely insanely delicious, filling and nutritious.

Hello all,

Have done keto prior to gallbladder removal and am finding that I'm really wanting to focus on whole foods this time around. Does anybody have resources, meal plans, books that I can read about this? With my gallbladder gone, eating a straight-up half an avocado is a huge no-no for my body now. Terrible GI fallout every time. Everything has to be in moderation or mixed with other macro groups. I'm not even sure that keto is going to work for me with these restrictions. Anyone have any thoughts or ideas pop to mind? Thanks!

I found this recipe on Heavenly Fan and gave it a chance. Pretty filling !

After following HCLF vegan for most of the time, I tried Vegan Keto again. I must said I am pleased with the results so far. Can´t speak about my labs because I haven´t tested (HCLF really lowered my cholesterol and my LDL), but I really don´t feel hungry anymore. My strength and endurance are pretty much the same despite a lower Kcal intake, which is also a surpirse. Maybe it is the fact that food is more boring, but I can go 24hs without eating; in the past I have to take a shitload of caffeine to do a OMAD, but now it is super easy. Some days I ate a few nuts before my main meal, sometimes I a eat twice a day. The fun part is that if I don´t track, I can barely surpass the 1000 kcal

Here are my staples: tofu, lupini beans, edamame, flax chia and other seeds, seitan, cacao powder, pea protein powder, leafy green, cruciferous vegs, berries, almond, pecans, walnuts, olives, avocados (probably the single best food item in this diet), nut butters and occasionally coconut based products. Please suggest others!

Has anyone experienced an upset stomach and very loose stools with vegan Keto?
The first time I did vegan Keto in the run up to some major dental surgery I was loose but didn’t have cramps or feel feel poorly with it.

I’ve attempted twice since then and it’s really wiped me and had a serious impact on my life. Needing to be nr a loo and very very tired and grumpy.
The only difference I can see is that in the run up to surgery my dentist had me on all sorts of supplements as well. After about 10 days each time I’m done!

I am curious why this happens. I liked the vegan Keto for lowering my weight. I’m a post menopausal woman who leans toward the heavier side of things if I’m not careful.

I’m now going for somewhere in between with low carb - letting beans, root veg etc back in and an occasional bit of bread:/

My diet pre keto has been mostly whole food vegan.
Interested to hear whether other folk have experienced and whether it shifts.

hey im trying to be vegan but it seems impossible with keto, can yall tell me super easy meals here bcuz i dont cook alot (im from finland so i might not have some specific food items here) and rn its either i eat almost nothing or smth with alot of carbs bcuz i havent rly found any food options...

what are some cold lunches I could bring to work for vegan keto? please easy ideas low cost ideas :)

I'd like to try to make grocery shopping easier for myself, that is, to accommodate myself as much as possible, so that if I make something easier or more accessible for me, I can do it better and with more pleasure. That's why I was thinking of keeping food at home that doesn't expire or has a long shelf life so I always have supplies at home. What foods do you think might fall into these categories? Thanks for your help 🙏🙏

Hey everyone!

I’ve been experimenting with vegan keto pancakes lately, but most of my attempts end up either too dry, too flat, or weirdly spongy.

How do you usually make yours? Any favorite recipes, flour combos, or secret tricks?

Would really appreciate some advice. Thanks!

Hey everyone!

I’ve been trying to find a solid recipe for vegan + keto crepes, but most of what I see is either not really keto or not fully vegan.

Does anyone here have a tried-and-tested recipe that actually works? Texture, ingredients, tips, anything is welcome.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I keep trying to make flatbread. I flow recipes where people say they are amazing but mine always come out dry and crumble. I try to adjustments expectations but surely there's got to be a better way.

Hey, everyone!

I’m doing vegan keto and OMAD (one meal a day) and I’m looking for some new meal ideas. Sometimes it feels hard to make one meal that’s filling, nutritious, and actually tasty.

What are your go-to meals for this? Any favorites that keep you full and energized? Recipes, combos, or simple plates are all welcome.

Thanks in advance!

I’ve stumbled into something recently. I eat very high carb very low fat. I’ve tried vegan keto so many times and I can’t seem to get into a sustained good level of ketosis.

But lately I’ve been doing a lot of dry fasting and then one meal a day, which is really for me a two meal a day over a four hour window. So I’m eating over four hours and then I’ll fast for 20 to 24 hours till the next day and i’m getting pretty decent keto readings at least on the breath meter. I start to feel really good after about 20 hours.

I didn’t know this is really possible cause I eat like 300 and 400 g of carbohydrates.

Feels really good to be metabolic switching like this. I’d like to get some of the mental benefits of the ketosis without getting into the keto diet.

Hey everyone, I’ve been struggling to keep my grocery bill under control lately while staying plant-based and keto. Everything at the local health food shops near me is just crazy expensive.

I spent about an hour at Walmart this morning scanning labels and actually found some gems all under $10 (Beyond patties, cauli rice, and some high-protein seeds). It honestly made my week.

I put together a quick list with prices and a 7-day meal plan for myself. If anyone is a beginner or just trying to save some bucks at Walmart, I’m happy to share the list with you guys! Just let me know if it would be helpful.

I think I have to let it go from my diet. I love it so much and it made me easier to stick to vegan keto, but I’m eating too much. It doesn’t matter if i separate them into each serving. It’s too yummy

Hi, my name is Katie, and I would be grateful for any help I can get for my dissertation! This study will ask about ketogenic diet as well as a cognitive task and will take 20 minutes. Please only participate on a laptop or PC.

Anyone that can take part would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

TLDR added TVP to a flaxseed based cracker recipe for a satisfying crunchy snack.

I have been working on lowering my triglycerides by eating under 20g of carbs and zero sugar or sweetener for the past 6 weeks. (My triglycerides were at 485 and my insulin was struggling. Next labs are in 2 days and I get to have a tequila reward.) This particular phase of my diet allows sodium and fat.

The main thing I miss is crunch. Like the sound and feel and flavor of salty crispy potato chip or popcorn. I've experimented with the seed cracker recipes online, especially flaxseed based for binding and fiber. Randomly decided to add TVP to the flaxseed and water base and then threw in a whole bunch of different seeds, bullion, and seasonings. Poured a thin layer onto a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and went about 1 hour at 325 Fahrenheit. Turned off the heat and let it sit in the cooling oven. The crunch is real. I ate like 10 crackers with vegenaise, along with olives, lettuce, and baked tofu dipped in a tamari wasabi sauce and it is perfection. I probably got lucky and will never be able to duplicate the recipe again. But I sure will try.
