[CKD] Ways to get FAT grams up

[tyrelle]

Yall, i'm having a tough time hitting my goal for my fat grams. I suppose to hit around 300 but i'm taking at around a 100. Any ideas on food choices :confused:

[Natrushka]

Nuts, seeds, mayo, butter, coconut oil, olive oil, flax oil, peanut butter, olives - Use extra and use it all often :)

Put butter on your vegetables

Renees salad dressings on your salads

Kraft mayonaise.... egg salad, tuna salad

Enjoy! :yum:

I found a greek dressing that has .65 grams of carbs in 2 tablespoons to go along with 5 grams of fat.

It is called Gazebo Room, they are a regional company so i dont know if you will be able to find it or not. I use it in place of ketchup, steak sauce and barbque sauce on almost all my meats as well as scrambled eggs - oh yeah and on salad once in awhile.

When i am low on fat at the end of the day i always make sure to have a little extra with supper.


Also dont forget about cream cheese, but only if you are low on carbs too. It has 2 grams in 2 tablespoons.

Thanks yall for the good suggestions....just had a mental block that's all...lol

cheese
cream cheese (Hello, mock danish!)
butter
heavy cream
almond, sesame or coconut oil

The cream and the oils can very easily be added to your shakes and consumed that way. When I had to supp fat, I'd throw up to 3 or 4 ounces of fat into my shakes in the morning. One tip - if you're going to drink it, almond and sesame oil taste a whole lot better than olive or (gag!) fish oil.

Cheers,

Friday

well I am always on the go, so i find it hard to plan out my meals.so i said the hell with it. I just hit the local latino restaurant and i buy 1 or 2 chicharones. Its basically a half pound slab of bacon(picture the whole pack of bacon before its sliced). they season and deep fry it. and thats what I eat. Havent really calculated the cals, etc. but i figure a half pound slab of meat thats at least 75% fat. i cant go wrong. no curing deep fried. yeah, and occasionally i eat it with xxx-hot habanero sauce :skull: .and lots and lots of water. did i mention lots of water. :D

I also take 200 mg of Citrimax per day, 800 mcg of chromium, and i take 54 mg of vanadyl every night before bedtime. Oh, and i have a question. this last time i started the diet. I was making large ketones but my blood sugar never dropped below 80 whats up with that? I think the vanadyl is whats causing my cramps. but I figure women deal with cramps routinely , if they can I can :D
