Just ordered my free sample LMNT. Thanks .
I like LMNT. I tried it because of your channel and for me it's a great addition. I ordered the sample pack first and loved it. I then ordered a big order of four big boxes. My favorites right now are the watermelon and the orange. During summer those are good and chilling and refreshing after a workout. Now with winter coming I will likely use up the others I got that are more savory flavored. One thing that LMNT helps with is after I drink a full bottle I am not hungry or needing something to taste. Its good that it satisfies any need for a craving.
Ordered mine. Can't wait to try them.
Ordered and shipping to uk same price! Thanks x
Holy moly!!! the chocolate salt is fantastic, I am hooked and as a bonus it taste like its a cheat. I drank a whole quart of it in no time, the taste was great. Thank you both so much for this suggestion. This video is really a big help!!!!
"Don't give yourself the chance to be emotionally manipulated by food"
YES!
Thank you both so much!
Today is my birthday….70 yrs weight is same as when I was 40…110 pounds ,thanks to your inspiring channel…..
Mine was yesterday! Happy B-day!!!💞
Whoo hoo Andrea! Happy birthday!! 🎊🎂🎁-Em
Woohoo! Good for you, Happy Birthday!
@@ketotwins thank you!
Amazing ! And Happy 🎂 Birthday!
Your incredible honesty is the motivation we need. All Keto channels give the science but you give us the emotional and mental information to get control and have success!
Thanks, Monica! We can only talk about our experiences but we are glad that so many can relate to our story! ☺️ -Sarah
Yes! I find this extremely helpful.
Having been Keto over a year and a half I am always amazed how 1 tablespoon of something none Keto is as satisfying' as a cup or more of it was before KEto!
Also, when I go to family holiday dinners/parties, I bring some of my favorite keto dishes (or one) and make a keto dessert. The first time I did it, I was a superstar, because there were a few diabetic relatives who were able to eat my dessert.
I guess I'm "lucky." I don't have much family left. After my parents passed away I ended up moving away so don't have any family nearby for big family dinners. Two of my siblings are also gone now as well, so it's kind of just me. I have some Keto recipes I may use to make myself some type of meal but will likely just have a Factor meal because they are tasty and satisfying. Prior to the loss of so many members of my immediate family it was really difficult. I think I was on a "diet" almost every holiday for the past 20 years. It was always tough for me. I think your ideas are very doable and would work for everyone. Thanks for your content, it is always great!
Hugs Charlotte, we appreciate you! -Em
@@ketotwins ❤️
Yeah I know! I have outlived my entire family. 🙂. I enjoy cooking, more the ritual of fixing my meal. Keto / Low Carb has been huge for my well being.
Wow! Sorry for your losses
That dog!!!!! Love it! I decided to have a sliver of cake and some Hagen Daz ice cream at my grandson's birthday party this year. I had been ketovore for almost 2 years. It wrecked everything. It has taken me almost 6 weeks to regain control. I was prediabetic before keto. It took a looooooong time (even after going carnivore-when I felt the best) for me at 65-67yr to lose 40 pounds. I regained 10 when I went back to keto after I was stalled for months. I completely forgot about intermittent fasting so that I was eating mostly cheese or chicharrones late at night-almost every night. I have painfully restarted intermittent fasting. It gets easier each day but I still have a problem with sweet cravings after eating. I never truly lost that but I stayed totally away from fat bombs and sugar alcohols when I first started keto because it became my downfall when I tried keto before.
One thing I always do is have an Atkins Bar that I really like in my purse, so if I am out anywhere and get hungry I can have that and not be tempted to get something else. It's also helped when I've met friends for coffee and they get a muffin etc that I can pull out something also and be satisfied. Thanks for all the tips!
After all my hard work for the last 8 years dropping almost 100#, eating off plan is not going to happen at any holiday or event. I also eat before and I will bring my own dishes! I’m not worried about hurting anyone’s feelings! They are welcome to share my healthy holiday meals. I’ve never had any issues with this planing. To be honest my dishes taste so much better than the carby dishes! ❤️
I had a long conversation with my sister-in-law before going to NC for thanksgiving. The family was very accommodating. I made a sausage squash keto casserole recipe for the main dish. That loooved it!!! I also planned ahead and brought food I could eat for the 4 days we were there. I came home and I had lost 2 lbs. Planning ahead is awesome advice. And YES, if you falter, admit I made a mistake and immediately get back on track. No sense in beating yourself up.
I’m so glad I found this channel. I am just like you. Binge binge binge and feel horrible beat myself up and then start all over. You guys have given me the courage and the support to know that I can do this. I have lost 30 pounds and I am stuck and almost ready to give up. But then yesterday I found your channel. And guess what , I’m going to go on and I’m gonna lose the The 50 pounds I need to lose and you’re going to help me. All I have to do is watch you and you guys give me the motivation to continue on. Thanks so much
You can do it Dan! Take it one meal at a time and you’ll be surprised how fast time flies! Thanks for finding our channel! -Em
This is such good advice! And I SO appreciate that you girls talk about disordered eating because most people in America compulsively overeat but just don’t realize it or are in denial.
This is wonderful and I realized how much of this I already did instinctually. I only add one final twist: I take a moment to reflect on just how much of my nostalgia is connected to the people I am with. I try to transfer the warm fuzzy feeling I get from food to the laughter, the talking, hugging and general good feeling sharing this time with those I love. This has been tremendously therapeutic. It gives me a focus other than food.
This is a beautiful sentiment and I completely concur! ❤❤
If I have a cheat meal I fast until 1 or 2 the next afternoon.
Sounds like a plan. Eat prior to going to a party. Make it less likely to indulge something you will regret eating. Thanks so much.
Let us know if this strategy works for you ❤️ -Sarah
This is the change that I had this time that helped me to stay keto for 2 years. So well articulated.
Thank you! It took us too long to figure it out! -Em
Food addiction is hard. I used to miss that food packed gut feeling that would send me off for and hour and a half nap. My strategy this year since I am the cook is to make delious keto food for every one to eat. Perhaps i will get some converts To the proper human diet.
I always bring my favorite keto side dishes with me, and everyone else eats them. Plus, I bring an awesome keto dessert, and have found a few relatives are now diabetic, so they are so happy I brought a dessert they can have too!
You both are lucky. Anytime I try to offer a low card side or dessert to the family table I'm made to feel like a pariah. Everyone quits their diets at the holidays and I'm made to feel bad for trying to maintain that progress on food holidays. Even though everyone could try it, they refuse to , so I end up the only one trying my dishes and bringing it back home. Somehow it doesn't' taste as good anymore.
One year, I secretly made keto versions of all the carby side dishes for Thanksgiving, and brought them in a cooler. When everyone else filled their plates from the tables, I excused myself to the kitchen after getting some turkey and I filled the rest my plate from my stash. No one knew my food was different. No one shamed me and My dinner and dessert was delicious and guilt free.
I felt a little discouraged for some reason this morn, and I knew a little dose of my favourite twins that are Keto would help.. and it did! Thanks girls
Thank you Jill! :)
Great advice ladies!!! It’s all about mindset!! For YEARS I failed because of the ALL OR NOTHING mindset. I finally got it once I started Keto! If I have an off day, I get right back to the basics of Keto. I also try to fast as long as I can and drink lots of water to reset my body. Thanks ladies!
There isn't a keto option at the holiday parties I attend, at least not for me. I'm a vegetarian. So, I'm going to try eating before hand and just watching everyone else eat this year.
Bring something you can eat and share with others.
Well, there’s bound to be some vegetables there you can have, unless your friends and family are all strict carnivores. 😉. But probably a good idea to eat some form of protein before you go.
@@ginadonza3549 I may do that . I usually bring some sort of sinful dessert lol. Won't that be a kick in the pants for them.
@@jillcarr-hilton7308 Nope, it's all made with extra stuff in it.We don't do the traditional thing. But, I'll just bring somethings to share. I had a poor me moment when I wrote that comment, but I'm over it and back on to figuring out what I can do instead of focusing on the negative :)
@@AureliasMyth1 Surprise, surprise!
I eat low carb for a few years and find if I cheat...bad, I get the..well...the poops. Definitely makes me think before I roam too far off the path. Thank you for this reminder and good ideas.
Carbs make me constipated!
You girls are right on. This is a battle that is never over. Love your honesty and truth.
Thank you Deborah!!
Y’all are so right about all this stuff! Great advice!! All that nostalgic food really doesn’t taste as good as you remember it most of the time anyway. Your taste buds have changed and all that bad non keto food tastes really nasty! Because it’s not good for you and your body recognizes it as a bad food. Thanks
THANK YOU! This reminds me of when I quit smoking years ago. I wrapped a pack in aluminum foil and stuck them in the freezer. Then I wrote myself a note and hung it on the freezer for ever how much time I needed it. It said, I can have you anytime I want you but I don't need you then I wrote all the reason I didn't need cigarettes. It did wonders, giving myself permission to have one but read why I didn't need them. That was like 20+ years ago. I do not look back and miss those cigarettes like one day I'll look back and not miss carbs. Tonight I am going to sit down and write myself a letter of why I don't want or need carbs in my life.
This is honestly a great tip that I wish my husband and I learned years ago. You could always make a Keto dessert beforehand to enjoy when you get back home later! Thank you for posting just after Canadian Thanksgiving! (AKA just the last few days! 😅) Love your videos and your recipes too, and can’t wait to try them for myself! ❤️
Happy Canadian thanksgiving! Of course we posted this after 🤣-Em
This is great advice, ladies, as I have made the mistakes you describe and ended up off keto for months. Gained back almost all the weight I lost. So I will try this. One other strategy that helps me is to take keto foods with me when I know I'll be at a gathering where others will eat things that might tempt me. Example: today I took a keto fat bomb when meeting friends for coffee. Everyone else bought a pastry, but I had a snack with me so I felt fine. I love your channel and your approach!
One of the major things in Atkin’s original book, was to always eat the protein and fat even before veggies. Smart advice ladies.
I’m in Canada, so I literally just hosted Thanksgiving dinner here two days ago. I made the turkey as well as keto gravy, keto sausage/cornbread stuffing, keto pumpkin bread, and a keto Brussels sprouts side. Also made a keto dessert. My mom and sisters brought non-keto side dishes and desserts, but I wasn’t even tempted to try any of it. Mind you, I still ate way too much overall, but my consumption was heavily mitigated by it being keto-friendly food only. My point is, even if you aren’t hosting, you can bring keto substitutes for the dishes you know you’ll be most tempted by, I think that’s a better alternative than eating in advance at McDonald’s (if you’re willing to do some cooking or baking, that is)… if you know someone is insisting on bringing a carbelicious dish to a gathering you are going to, you can still bring the keto alternative and see if they like it as much or more, they may be happily surprised by the discovery, and who knows you might even change someone’s mind about keto! If you don’t have the time or inclination though, by all means eat something first before you go… 😏
Thanks for this video. I needed it because I have worried about the holidays and falling off the wagon. I've lost 75 lbs in less than 6 mo's.. don't want to lose any ground.
We all worry about the holidays John! You’ve got this! -Em
I followed this advice yesterday (Thanksgiving) and it worked out so great for me! I have never been able to maintain doing keto over the holidays and in the past this would be the period I would gain back 20 lbs and feel like I had to start all over. This time before going to my family gathering I ate a snack plate with some delicious cured meats and cheeses I got as a special treat for myself. When I went to dinner I served myself dark meat turkey, greens, a Veggie casserole (this had some small diced potatoes in it but I had a very small serving), green beans, and ham. I completely skipped the mashed potatoes, stuffing, and Mac and cheese, and told myself it I really wanted them after finishing my plate I could get a small serving. But of course by the time I was done I was perfectly satisfied and didn't care at all about having any of those things. I skipped out on dessert, but had a coffee along with everyone instead, and I felt so great. Everyone else was saying how "stuffed" and tired they were but this was first holiday I didn't feel that way at all! I was so comfortable and relaxed and really enjoyed my time with my family. And then when I got home and got in my comfy clothes I curled up on the couch with a serving of a keto pumpkin dessert I had made earlier in the day for myself and it was the perfect way to end my holiday feast for the day. Today, I'm right back to my keto eating and feel like I didn't skip a beat. Thank you SOmuch for your advice and tips. It has made a huge difference for me.
Love to hear about your success this holiday! Yay!! -Em
Eating disorders impact so many people. I think your tip could certainly be very beneficial for a lot of people who struggle with temptation. I not only eat first, but I also take easily transportable snacks. The first few times I was embarrassed, but now I have no fear in letting people know that certain foods don't make me feel good. It is such a part of the culture that it is rude to not accept all food provided, but you wouldn't make someone with a peanut allergy eat Peanut Butter. I am glad that after almost two years I can have a "free meal" from time to time and get right back to eating the Keto foods that make me feel the best.
Thanks as always for sharing your thoughts and tips. Here's to 50k!
Thank you Misty!!
I’m watching this right before Easter. I’m going to a friend’s house for dinner. I’m going to eat something before I go, will bring an asparagus salad, and will bring my own Keto-friendly dessert. Thanks!
My family is going to my inlaws this year for Thanksgiving. I'm making my traditional stuffing with Aldi's keto bread, and a keto friendly version of green been casserole to take with me, so I'm not tempted. I know I can't resist stuffing.
I recently made stuffing with Costco's Keto bread as a trial run for Thanksgiving & it was delicious. I haven't had stuffing/dressing in years.
After seeing this video, I had to subscribe. This is wonderful advice...especially since this is my first holiday season on keto. I have another idea that may help someone. I am making my favorite family recipes keto. For example, I love Libby's pumpkin pie. I'm making an almond flour crust and substituting cream for the evaporated milk and sweetener for the sugar. The rest of the ingredients are keto. My mom also makes amazing dressing and I'm making a keto version of her recipe. BTW we had a "happy accident" one Thanksgiving. The oven died as the turkey was coming out and mom was putting the dressing in to bake. My grandma took over (she was a smart lady) by adding more cornbread to thicken the dressing, and then fried it like potato cakes. It is incredible!
Henri is killing me! He's SO darn cute!!!
Haven't been through the holidays yet since I started Keto, but I'm confident I'll get by because how I felt after my first and only cheat day. I'd gone 12 weeks and decided to reward myself with a frozen pizza that had been languishing in my freezer since just before I started my new regimen. Truthfully, it tasted like the best pizza ever, but the next day I felt awful--not really sick, but lethargic. Now when I want to treat myself, I stick to Keto food, but cheat a little on my intermittent fasting window.
Yes! So important to have a plan for the holiday season. I was keto for ten months in 2019, ate a piece of cake in late October, and was baking dozens of Christmas cookies by December (not keto). Then enter pandemic. It took me until February 1, 2021 to get back on keto. Ugh. Now I have lost 54 lbs., and know this must be forever for me. Thank you for telling it like it is! 💜
Thank you so much for sharing Lisa! We definitely resonate with your story, it’s happened countless times to us over the years! -Em
@@ketotwins 💜
Going to a wedding today and was already worried about the temptations. Thank you for your advice. I'm already relaxing. Have a lovely day!
Hope you had a great time!
I ordered the LMNT sampler today. If it taste good I will re-order. Thank you for your authenticity and honesty and vulnerability. Keto Twins for President! Lol
🤣🤣
I've used this strategy. It works really well. You are so lucky to have one another for support.
Great topic. Just in time for the holidays ..................... 😎👍👍
Good advise!!! I have done this before!! If you are Really hungry you have way less control!! Thanks!!
Great tips. Especially eat before you go. Thanks!
Great strategy! Why did I never think about it. Thank you for sharing.
On a scale from 1-10, this advice is a 10! The cuteness of that puppy: 11!
🐶🤗❤️
I cannot believe I found you guys. Y'all are me. Thank you for your realness and showing the fails. I have fallen off the wagon SO many times because I'm an addict. And the bad thing about being a food addict is that you can't just stop eating.
I'm slowly watching your videos and absorbing the straight-forward info and I just cannot thank you both enough.
Hears to getting healthy and loosing the weight.
Awww we are so happy you found us too!! Take it one meal at a time ❤️-Em
Good idea to eat before you go to the event!
All your advice is so true. I plan to re-watch these often to re- affirm, as I tend to forget. It’s such a battle between the voices in your head.
Exercising after indulging is always good to burn some of that carb off and helps me to get back on the right track.
Here for the dog
Henri says hi! 🐶-Em
Thank you. I've just started binge watching your channel. Christmas is coming and ive been back on keto for almost 2 months and I need to mentally prepare. My goal is to stay keto for 10 years minimum for a particular health problem. I'll be watching this again the day before Christmas. Great tips. We all need reminding often.
I also, in the past, have told myself I don't want that it tastes discusting and i'd say 8 out of 10 times that helps a lot haha.
I cook and bake for others that are not keto. This makes it difficult to stay on track. I lost 37lbs on keto, then went off. Gained 10lbs after a few months.Trying to get back to low carb.
I love you guys! I get so much encouragement and motivation from y’all. Thank you!
Thanks so much Nancy, you all encourage us to keep going making videos! -Em
Thank you for this! We need to have a plan & be so very careful.
If I have to have some dessert...I will take one taste of my husband's pie. & that seems to be enough ...don't want to have any regrets!
A predator for stuffing 🦖 that almost made me spit out my coffee
Excellent! Because of birthday celebration, get-together with friends, etc. I've eaten twice at Pizza Ranch in the last week and will again tomorrow. I've learned how to stay low carb at Pizza Ranch. After a while, eating all those carbs is not even a treat anymore. Just makes you feel awful.
Great tips, easy to eat before the holiday meal. So far (this time) it hasn’t been hard.(Thx to covid risks, we are staying home in our pj’s). I hate to cook, so eggs, and steak ! I ordered the electrolytes, fyi. You gave great advice, eat before you go!!
I love your channel. You guys are so real. You’ve given me inspiration. I’m not yet “keto” but marching toward very low carb. Thank you
Thanks for watching Carolynn! 🤗
I have to prepare for sure. I’m so carb addicted. Thank ice cream and sweets are like my crack. Nooo nooo thank you. Love stuffing. Ty for suggesting this. I am going to implement this for sure. Thank you.
Omg I have been dreading the holidays coming up, this advise has saved my diet and helped my mindset. Thank you.
You can do it Gina! Promise! -Em
Right? So good. Hope there is a Halloween night video coming soon! My advice is don't open ANY candy bags until the clock strikes 6, or later if you arent in a young hood. And then just DON'T DO IT. Trying to overcome the taste of a Baby Ruth or PayDay or Butterfinger is too hard. Indulge in the memory of what it tastes like instead!
Thank you for all of your videos! And I now am an LMNT fan also!
Yay! So happy you like it! -Em
You are so right. Three years ago I had lost 52 pounds. November 1 someone brought in the Halloween candy and that was it fir a long time. Then it is Covid. I ate chocolate chips for a year. I’m back in the Keto eating. It is the best thing for my body.
I’m so glad I found your channel. I went to the doctor and I am in a bad spot. I’m like you, doing Atkins and now Keto so many times. You give me so much support. Love your channel. I’m binge watching you guys now !!!!
My mother made the egg chocolate pudding as a child. I asked her the recipe when she was older. She couldn’t remember. So nice to see it. We ate granola on is as a grade schooler. You guys have done a remarkable job. So real and so much fun to watch. Keep up the great work. At one time, I got down to 139 and I thought it wasn’t good enough. Got mad and went all the way back up.
Thank you for your videos. I love that they are jammed packed with information, and are short to watch. Keep it up. 🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️👍👍
*chaffels* autocorrect changed it to truffles it was a cucumber chaffel
This is so good to hear. I have trouble not eating the "thank you gifts" of chocolate and sometime donuts and other biscuits that are given to us at work, (NICU in a hospital). I use to take some home for later thinking It would be better than eating them over a week instead of right now, but that wasn't true. Last night, I knew I wouldn't eat them at work and had to make the decision not to take them home. That was hard, it has always been my reward for taking care of people's babies. So I had my favourite keto desert when I got home from work and thanked the parents who valued me. Was so good.
I’m proactively watching this video in May! 😂😂
I’m actually fairly new, so I’m going through many of your stellar videos. TY!
Extremely helpful advice. My birthday is coming up and I will be using your ideas all day. 😊
I usually bring a plate of Pepperoni and Cheese to any party. I also keep some aside in my purse so I can eat enough to satisfy. When at the party I can take a normal size portion from the tray along with everyone else. I might look weird taking 10 pieces off the tray, but I know I have enough for true satisfaction with me.
I always ask first if I can bring it and it always looks good to be a contributor to events.This strategy can be mildly expensive to do. (I usually bring just a regular dinner plate full, so it does't get real expensive). It helps knowing I have my own treats when everyone else is getting party food.
I love your idea of eating first. I think this would make me even more able to avoid all of those tasty temptations.
I do this as well and it helps tremendously! I also try to remove the nostalgia and emotional ties to the food. I just enjoy the company I am with now which has taken a long time!
Always down the meat and veggies first lol
I’m so impressed by Sarah’s ability to not say anything. I’d have a hard time when someone else is doing most of the talking!
Lol! It’s because I agree with what she’s saying most of the time 😂 -Sarah
I call that pre-gaming lol! I am always scared to pre-game. I imagine that I will eat beforehand, but I will still succumb to the temptation when I get there, and I’ll end up eating double the calories I would have!
Thanks for sharing and being so transparent. I'm drinking the LMNT, the raspberry is delicious.
You are beautiful sisters and appreciate your down to earth messages and videos.
Thank you!
The personal shaming I put myself through, is worse that the pounds gained. Holidays and all access…😬😬😬
Great advice! Every party/holiday meal I've been to, someone brings a veggie tray...
Totally agree with everything you both said. I used to play the cheating mind games years ago. Now, I’m in control.
Thank you for being real ! I ve been going back and forth with Keto. I was doing great, We had a tragedy in the family and food is my comfort. I’ve gained weight I have nothing to wear. It sucks !
I decided to make Christmas Cookies. What a huge mistake. I’m on a binge. I’m crying as I say it.
I appreciate you two so much ! I’ve just done what you are talking about , starting in January 💜🙋♀️
I think we all need this, might be something that i will try. Thanks for another great video
Thank you two for the wonderful tips. I feel like what you are saying is a very smart way to manage the holidays. I have wrecked myself the past 2 years doing exactly what you are talking about. This year is going to be different.
Love to hear that Kellie!! -Em
Thanks for this video. I love the reminders and good points made. I will often eat before going out with friends so I don't get too tempted or upset with myself later.
Great advice Ladies! Thanks for sharing your experiences. We all need reminded that we aren’t the only ones with binge issues.
Valuable strategy I will be using, thanks. I am one who beats myself up for indulging and feeling like “why bother now”, you’ve reminded me I am still in control if I make my next meal keto. I just started watching you girls and enjoying it so far.
After I binge I like to fast. I try to do a 20 or 24 hour fast.
This video is just in time! The pumpkin spice products are everywhere, tempting me at every turn!
I bought pumpkin pie spice, zero sugar pumpkin spice creamer and pumpkin caramel skinny syrup I'm very satisfied by this combo
@@zensbleexperience3470 Sounds delicious! I’ve been adding pumpkin pie spice to my cinnamon toast flavored collagen and almond milk. It definitely hits the spot! 😃
Just ordered the LMNT. Nice offer, too! Thanks.
Excellent advice! I will be utilizing this strategy starting now as have family event this week-end.
For Foodies… eating is really emotional. It’s like a food addiction. But you are right, there are good foods… low in carbs and even healthy ones that can fill you up. For me it’s going out to a restaurant … my hubby eats those daggone bread buns. So now I avoid free bread restaurants. Cause I cant make him not take them and I always end up losing that bread battle. Maybe I should tell them to bring it as dessert! 😊 I never eat dessert at a restaurant…. Unless I’m on a cruise.
Great tip, but my mom isnt here any more, and I wish I could have her stuffing. So, morale of story, have a scoop, or ask her to make a new memory for you, a keto version.
Thanks for the info, especially just before the holiday season; great timing! Love seeing you both. Outstanding video as always and am looking forward to the next. Thanks! Eric
Thank you so much Eric! -Em
Doing a drive-thru "gullet" toss is even more strategic, because you're giving yourself a 'fast food treat', so to speak- & the smells & historical memory of drive thru stimuli also helps satiate, right~ brilliant. Mitigating the damage is where it's at, particularly during the holidays/b'days/vacation etc.
BE FULL when you get to the event, that way you can enjoy the people & conversation~ let that be the highlight✨
*I was born on Thanksgiving, so it's a b'day every 4 yrs as well. About 10 yrs ago, I decided our Turkey Day feast was going to be a Curry Day from now on, & this has been hugely successful! Because an (in)authentic "curry feast" includes three different huge piles of meats/seafood- each in it's own sauce/seasonings, PLUS about 30 assorted toppings/sides/add-ins; olives, capers, raisins, coconut, roasted almonds, green onion, red/yellow/orange/green bell peppers etc~ possibilities are endless. Plus, it's a huge spread, it's very colorful, & has a "cornucopia" of flavors & textures~ win Win WIN people!!
A curry feast sounds delicious!! -Em
I really love your channel you girls are so adorable and so informative. I'm 72 and have been doing low carb for a year-and-a-half. But find myself going off more often that I want to have gained back about 10 lb. You guys are getting me back on track for sure. Thanks so much.
Thank you so much Kathleen, we’ve all been through periods where gained a little back, just take it one day at a time and you will be back on track in no time ❤️-Em
Love your stories , so relatable.
Thank you. This is really helpful. I'm looking forward to a keto holiday season. I am the cook so it will be interesting trying to cater to everyone's "needs".

I didn't mean to dislike the video, I clicked the wrong button, I'm so sorry! Thank you for all your wonderful videos!
🤗🤗❤️❤️ it’s okay! You are too kind
Thank you. I can’t tell you how helpful your words are to me today. I look forward to implementing your suggestions. Happy Thanksgiving!
Wonderful advice. I will truly use this strategy the next time I go to a gathering, and I will make the mock sweets. Great job as usual.
I'm so lucky that my sister who lives in another state hosts the holidays. So even if I have a cheat meal while I'm at her house, I'm going home where I have no leftovers to worry about. So I don't have to contend with cheating throughout the entire holiday season. Just 1 meal at Thanksgiving and 1 meal at Christmas. I feel bad for people who ARE the hosts or who live closer to their family so they are constantly tempted.
I can’t imagine cooking carb filled foods and not eating them, no way 🤣🙈-Em
They don't send you home with leftovers?
@@Metqa If I wanted I can bring home leftovers but I don't. I have plenty of Keto desserts and food at home. Like I make a side dish for turkey that has the flavors of stuffing but obviously no bread. I use Sage breakfast sausage and cauliflower. And there's really not much that I miss enough to go out of Ketosis for.
I love how sensible you two are & you're so young too!!
🙈🙈
I think that 'throwing it down the gullet' is a very good idea. Since I have been eating keto and fasting, I find just eating a small amount of food makes the cravings go away
and gives me more control. I love Sleepy Henry. What breed is he, how old is he? Love your channel.
Henri is 11 years old, he’s half Chinese crested, half Pomeranian, he’s mostly hairless! ❤️🐶-Em
