Laura T. 5 years ago # Reply

Will be making mostly meat choices with keto approved veggies, and trying to stay with keto friendly desserts, as well. My mom is aware of my food choices, and will try to make things friendly for me, as long as they are things she can eat also, and we doe our own things for the rest. She is 92, and eats her way (SAD), and my dear brother, who will be joining us, also eats othe ways, so dinner will be ham, and whatever else we decide to do. I will probably have Brussels sprouts with lots of butter, and homemade cranberry sauce without sugar (keto friendly subs, like stevia glycerite). Possibly a pecan pie or butter pecan ice cream for dessert (keto versions).

This year I decided to host the holiday party since my mother recently suffered from a severe injury which leaves her unable to cook or plan the holiday dinner party. Since I’m hosting the party this year, I planned out an entire menu so all the choices I have made are Keto friendly. Lots of planning and just enyoing all the delicious Keto friendly foods is what helps me stay Keto during the holiday season.

Jesi 5 years ago # Reply

There are so many low carb keto options during the holidays it's a surprise not everyone is taking advantage. I don't eat meat so my mother makes my husband and I salmon with nothing but lemon, spices, and a bit of butter or olive oil. I love brussels sprouts and unsweetened homemade cranberry sauce. Sometimes the store sells cranberries on sale, so I have a lot in my freezer. The stuffing usually has turkey in it so it's easy to avoid for us! Forgoing the flour in the gravy is also quite easy to do.

I am staying keto throughout the holiday season by finding replacement recipes for my favorite holiday dishes and treats. I love pumpkin flavored anything so my go to for a sweet pumpkin treat has been the pumpkin pie fat bombs!!! I love them!

Greetings to all KeTo Fans! What a wonderful way to get healthy! I will stay on KeTo by making side dishes to share with my family! My son, though not on strict KeTo needs to watch his sugar so I bring Keto-friendly recipes from this blog & others, the sugar-free cranberry sauce was a great hit, as well as Keto Pumpkin Pie, green beans with almonds! I have lost 41 lbs and am at goal, so I can ease up a little bit, but keep pretty strict with it. I have been looking at the instant pot, trying to decide if it would benefit me since I live alone, but found some wonderful recipes for KeTo way of living & would love to try them to take to share at covered dish meals. Please enter me in the giveaway! Thank you so much for all you research and share with us! Blessings for a wonderful Holiday Season!

Keto eating is a long term lifestyle for me. I started it to lose weight and have a life that enabled me to be physically strong and mentally healthy. So eating Keto during the holidays is no different. I make a plan, follow the plan, and make sure to set myself up for success by making choices that support that plan.

Sandra 5 years ago # Reply

It helps me a lot to drink lots of water before a party to stay on track if I’m not working I’m hungry I’m not looking to devour everything in front of me.
But the best way I know of to stay on track is to share all of your tried-and-true recipes with four my sisters so no matter who’s home I go to for the holidays, I am sure to always have a keto treat to go along with whatever dish I bring.
I love cooking savory dishes, but I am a horrible baker so I’m going to give each of them your cookbook with the pages dogeared for Sweet treats I would like them to try..Lol 😂

If I didn't love food so much I wouldn't need a Keto diet. Comfort food epitomizes the holidays...especially Christmas. You can't go anywhere that you can't score cookies and candy. Typically when we eat out we do steak and salad with a baked sweet potato without the cinnamon-sugar butter. I try to eat high protein and then exercise for a couple of hours riding my bike. Of course this isn't as effective as eating right but I manage to stay close. When the holidays are over I am in great shape and it is relatively easy to resume where I left off.

For me, preparation is key in staying keto, not just at Christmas, but throughout the year. Other than the obvious (food prep), I find I have to prepare my mindset: the reasons why I DON'T need the carb-laden food (the compromises to my health issues, the struggle to get back on the wagon, etc.).

Daniela Rubio (http://naturketo.net/) 5 years ago # Reply

In holidays, it is easy for me to stay keto, because I do intermittent fasting, and all my family knows my lifestyle, so we participate together in the creation of recipes. The deserts, which are the most challenging, are my treat!
Regarding your new book, I think it will be great! I love your recipes, and I would love an electronic version of this book, because I am blind and I use screen readers to access books and other digital contents. Hope you consider it!

Peter 5 years ago # Reply

Good question. For our Thanksgiving, I was able to do a good portion of the menu planning, so included options that were LCHF, including a pecan pie recipe + low carb crust. (I overcooked the custard, used too many pecans in the filling, or something, but it was still tasty.) For Christmas, I'm hoping to get in on the planning a bit and maybe smuggle in some almond flour or something. That gets trickier as I'm at my parents' house and they have limited storage space for other food. I can probably talk them into a crustless quiche or something similar, though. (Would love to do a brisket instead of ham, but don't see that happening. 😊 )
For me - planning ahead is going to be key. Knowing what's coming, I expect it will be a veggie/butter-filled day. But as long as I can plan ahead somewhat, I can do okay. The worst of it will be Christmas day when everything is closed so other options are harder to come by.

Would love to hear how you adapted your pecan pie recipe!

Staying Keto during the holidays can be touch, because you are likely not the one doing all the cooking. As a rule of thumb, I remember that no one is perfect and if you fall off the wagon one meal, there is always the next meal to get right back on the wagon.
When in doubt, pack snacks to take with you, that way you will never be staving and it is easier to control what you eat!

That is a good question. It’s a bit hard.
But I got an Keto Advent calendar so I got a little peace of sweets everyday. I am also going to bake some cinnamon stars. Kind of Cookies and „vanillekipferl“ that i will try to convert to Keto. The cinnamon stars will be easy cause they only contain eggs, nuts and sugar so I’ll took erythrit instead. With the „Kipferl“ I’ll have to experiment. We will see 😊
I would love to have the instant pot. Would be a great addition to my kitchen and of course the cookbook would be interesting too 😊
Best wishes to all and have great holidays.

Holidays.....
1. Book an apartment - chances are it’s cheaper than a hotel and if you look carefully at the pictures of the accommodation it will let you know if there’s an oven - a main part of staying on our Keto diet.
2. Look online for the nearby market-places and supermarkets pre-travel - so that you can stock up early on day one - fresh, local produce means it’s easy to stay on track......
3. Learn a few words of the the language - even if it’s just a few words from the back of a guide book - that can help for market-place purchases - helps you feel part of the place and to fit in (often getting better prices too!!) ..........ie hello / thank you / how much / learn the numbers.......
4. Look at the local restaurant menus online pre-travel..... not only gets the tastebuds watering but let’s you see which places would suit a Keto option either straight off or with just a little bit of juggling.
5. Cover your stay with a few days of recipes on the KetoDiet app on your phone for use in the the apartment - recipes that can be covered by simple and easy ingredient numbers made up from easy purchases in a local market (see above) and helped by a couple herbs and spices in your suitcase (take unopened ones with the hermetic seal intact for customs!!!) although garlic and ginger are usually easy to find!
Enjoy your travels....

How do I stay KETO during the holidays?
Well people, I just say no to all the sugary sweet and processed foods! I think about how far I have come and there's no point in turning back now : )
However, I LOVE trying out many recipes I find online, including ketodietapp ; ) This does take planning and prepping, but getting all the yummy ingredients when I'm in the store, and coming home and putting it all together, I then don't feel bad for working hard to get a meal or treat made.
I have yet to try out an instant pot, and see many recipes making life easier, and that sounds great to me!

It's a challenge for sure but it's not impossible. Opt for lower carb choices when I'm not in charge of the menu! Like sweet potatoe or yams instead of mashed potatoes.

Adwoa 5 years ago # Reply

I often will bring at least one dish of not more, to ensure I have something to eat and share that's tasty without having to explain myself. For instance, I did not host Thanksgiving but share my keto efforts with my mother who was so supportive that she chose to make predominantly keto friendly recipes and welcomed my dishes as additions. Another strategy is to eat a decent keto meal before going to a gathering so I'm already full and can pick and vegetable trays etc.

The only way I've found to keep me honest and on track is to plan my meals in advance and keep an ongoing record of what goes in my mouth. This holiday season is going to be a little more complicated for me. I'm having the wood flooring replaced in my house due to water damage and, most likely, will not have access to my kitchen so much more thought will be needed for me to stay the course during this time of upheaval.

Keto during the holidays fuels my competitive side — I see it as a challenge to find as many keto dessert recipes that taste amazing! I've always loved baking, so I do my best to replace as many of my traditional holiday recipes with as many keto friendly recipes as possible. Success in keto to me is figuring out keto versions of my favorite foods, rather than going for the typical keto meals. Keto versions of my favorite holiday foods are the best way to enjoy my meals and have fun during my time off of work!

Cheese, erythritol, almond/coconut flour, and cauliflower! There are dozens of recipes to try, but some mainstays for us are mashed cauliflower to replace the mashed potatoes, and keto biscuits to make stuffing and just to have instead of rolls! There are a ton of great pies and desserts using low-carb ingredients that actually taste good, even for a non-ketoer!

During the holidays, I make my own meals. If I am going to a party, I bring a Keto dish and/or a dessert that I can share with others. I only eat what is compliant on the buffet table. I completely stay away from any fried food or fast food or sugar laden desserts and just eat clean. I drink lots of water, with lemon. Once in a while, I may imbibe in a glass of white wine, but only if I'm not driving. Since I don't drink alcohol much, it hits me hard, so one is my limit. By doing this, I don't feel deprived. Feeling good and looking thin is so much better than eating that unhealthy stuff.

I still monitor my diet allowances and I still make every attempt to stay within my set goals tho I don't go apes**t if I do go over since I know that there always is tomorrow to put it all back in check. I have lost 77 pounds in my first 11 months on the ketogenic diet I limit my calories and carbs and monitor my fats and protein as I am weight lifting 6 days a week I do keep my protein relatively high for a standard keto diet, 100 grams protein minimum daily, I'm 6'3" and 195 pounds currently with a final goal of 190 by the first of the year.

I bring an appetizer meat & cheese tray if I go somewhere, then I will be sure that I can stay keto.

I love this - I am just getting into the keto lifestyle and excited for the release of the book. I have also heard amazing things about the instant pot but don’t have one yet. I can’t wait to get some great new keto recipes going

I don't. I find that eating keto 99% of the time works for me. If I go on vacation or visit friends, I eat whatever is available, controlling my portions and avoiding sugar. Back at home, I go back to my keto lifestyle and have no problems.

I do cheat at family gatherings but stay on keto when I am alone by preplanning and making some keto choices ahead of time so they are ready to have when I get hungrey.

If I stumble I just keep going and start again. I'm not going to spend the holidays worrying about if I mess up or not.

I have stocked my freezer with keto recipe treats to share with guests and have planned Christmas dinner with keto friendly roast lamb and sugarfree mint sauce with side salads as well as roast veges for the non keto family members. Strawberries and keto mousse for dessert.
I plan not to go to functions on an empty stomach. Then I can enjoy a taste of suitable nibbles. Cheeses without crackers and nuts for example.

I’m just starting to look into keto for myself! My husband started while I was pregnant...but I’m interested in it now! The main thing I’ve been doing lately is looking up recipes so that I can still make us both dinner to enjoy together! This would be a huge help 😊 thanks for a chance to win!!

Keto over the holidays is a challenge. I decided last year that it is best to have the main family celebration meal at my home, therefore my keto family and I can prepare special meal items, treats and desserts to suit our lifestyle. We Keto-up all the traditional Christmas meal options: leafy green salads, coleslaw, cauliflower rice cabbage rolls, keto cheesecake, short bread and truffles, bone broth based soup, keto appetizers and the usual ham and turkey mains fill out the menu with tempting treats (roasted nuts, coconut and dark chocolate haystacks, etc) My family and friends don't miss all the bread, pasta based salads and sugar laden treats at all. The trick is to keep your fingers from returning time and again to the nut bowl...lol. Merry Christmas to all and thanks so much for all the wonderfully delicious recipes and advice found here on your site M. :0)

I've lost 75 pounds since I started a Keto lifestyle this summer (2018). That is motivation enough to keep me Keto during the holidays. I'll do the same thing I did at Thanksgiving. I concentrated on the Keto good-for-you foods. However, I also enjoyed the other goodies in small amounts and even had pumpkin pie. The next day got right back to Keto business as usual and didn't gain a single pound. Woo Hoo for Keto! Keto is just so amazingly easy with so many of Martina's Keto treats, that sugary sweets hold no power over me so I don't have to even worry about staying Keto during Christmas.

I have been doing Low Carb for a little over a year and have lost 24 pounds. I feel and look so much better! It is a change in the way I eat but I am never bored because there are so many good things to eat that fit into my "plan". I have enjoyed reading your blog and testing your recipes.
I do have occasional days when I eat more carbs than usual. Holidays are hard but I never stray for long. I like to fill up on veggies and approved appetizers that I create and bring so I'm not so tempted by the forbidden.

I stay committed but do have an understanding that it is a holiday of one or two days and not a year-long celebration. Do not punish yourself. A ketogenic lifestyle is a lifetime marathon, not a sprint to a set finish line.

Staying keto during Holiday is so easy for me- baked salon, buttery cauliflower puree and delicious sauerkraut with mushrooms for main dish- just perfect keto dinner! Then, I eat some no-crust, sugar-free cheesecake for dessert and enjoy my family time together 😉 Next day, I usually like fasting, to give my stomach little rest 😝

This holiday is our first. Just planning ahead. Have Keto snacks in case of temptations. Family knows we are eating Keto so we are blessed that we can take our snacks, etc. Could use a new cookbook and instant pot to help with the holidays. Hint, hint!! lol

I stay Keto during the holidays using a combination of intermittent fasting; meal planning - making a little extra so I can have frozen single-serve meals at the ready; and taking along a plate of any of the delicious pop-in-your-mouth-treats from the Keto Diet App to Christmas gatherings. I've also discovered that whether it is a keto recipe or water - if you drink from a champagne glass, (or whatever glass is being widely used at the party) no one notices!

My husband and I stay Keto during the holidays by pre-planning and prepping delicious new KETO recipes. I love this blog because I have always had good luck with any recipe I've ever tried here, and there are so many delicious options for making any kind of dish I could imagine a need for, for any occasion.

How I stay keto during the holidays is to find new recipes I want to try. Maybe a substitute for a traditional food. It’s really not that hard. There are a lot of great recipes out there. I really don’t miss anything and feel better for it.

Hi! I stay keto during the holidays by bringing food to get-togethers: a meat and cheese tray, a veggie tray, a cheeseball with keto crackers or a keto cheesecake. I can't do a cheesecake right now because my oven is dying and needs replacing. An instant pot would be very helpful. Thank you for this contest.

I make my favorite foods of the season the Keto way. I don't cheat. Love this lifestyle. I have your Fat Bomb cookbook and love it. So many great recipes!

I scour my favorite keto bloggers for recipes along with their cookbooks. Thanks to you and other keto stars I don't feel as though I'm missing out on anything during the holidays. Merry Christmas and congrats on the launch of a new cookbook! Since this is mostly a compilation from previous books (80%), please let us know the advantages of purchasing this book if we have most of your previous books. Thanks!

Daniel 5 years ago # Reply

For some reason I couldn't post a comment while entering the instantpot giveaway.
The holidays are about being in the company of people and loved ones and the food is secondary. And since I view food as a source of energy per-say (I do care how it tastes) I just eat the way I eat year round and don't feel deprived.
There are those who eat to survive and those who live to eat. Once you decide where you want to be it's really easy.

I feel like keto is my life. So I live my life the keto away and I consider Christmas day a treat. I don't go overboard I just have a bite or two of the things that I don't eat on a daily basis. And it's ok!

CeliaT 5 years ago # Reply

For the last three years I have had one "cheat" during the holidays and that seems to keep me on the straight and narrow. It's usually a couple of bites of a non-compliant dessert and that seems to be enough. The rest of the year I don't even think about cheating.
