2- Keto Chili
Since I’ve gone “Keto” I’ve had to adapt my whole mindset when it comes to what I eat. Cutting out carbs and sugar isn’t easy at all. Once in a great while I allow myself a “cheat day”. That means instead of zucchini pasta I will allow the real stuff, but that’s once every few months. I can’t say I’m never going to eat pasta ever again in my life. That’s completely unrealistic of me to do so, and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t going to. But if I allow myself a cheat day once every few months, it’s like a treat, and I’m able to jump right back into Keto a bit easier.
