Ready to gear up for a keto and low carb shopping experience like no other? Your keto grocery list isn’t just a piece of paper; it’s your secret weapon for a week filled with delicious, health-conscious foods picked out specifically to help you fill your pantry. Let’s get healthy together!
Have you ever thought “I want to start eating low carb {or even keto} but when I go to the grocery store… I don’t even know what to buy?!?!”
I remember that feeling. I was 7 months pregnant with my first baby and I had just discovered that I was diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes. My midwife told me that I needed to start eating low carb, and honestly I didn’t even know where to start!
I had been eating whole foods – but honestly, a lot of my diet consisted of whole grains like brown rice and carby vegetables like sweet potatoes.
I remember her giving me a list of foods to go shopping for and I just cried because it felt so limiting to me.
Now, that I have been eating this way for so long, I almost laugh at myself for feeling so defeated. Eating low carb may not be the standard diet of most people, but it honestly isn’t as limiting as people make it out to be.
With a few simple swaps, you can eat low carb or keto and not feel deprived at all! I want to be your guide and bring you along to the delicious and satisfying world of low carb and keto living.
