Another good thing about dark chocolate is that its bitter taste helps to control appetite. It should be really bitter (more than 85%) though. Also raw cocоa beans are easy to carry around, and they are the best in blocking cravings. Plus, dark chocolate is a fantastic source of bioavailable iron, copper, manganese and magnesium, and a brain tonic as well!

I find that I need a snack not because I am hungry, but because I am stressed or unhappy. The hunger follows these feelings. If I still had some self-control left, I eat one or two cans of herrings and I feel fine. If I were to be totally out of control, I consume carbs. So, I guess that secret is try not to stress out near bedtime when my will is weakest.

[@Rambutan.]

Are you able to find a different way to relieve stress? I find the worst times to eat are when I'm stressed. Maybe some nice herbal tea? Or some lovely music that you like?

[@watcherworld5873]

@@Rambutan. There are many ways. Whether they work depend on how stressed I am. A little stressed, a sip of herbal tea will be fine. More stressed, some Wim Hof breathing helps. Even more stressed, some high protein food like canned herrings or soft-boiled eggs. Extremely stressed and I may relapse to eat high carb like a quart of ice cream and/or a medium sized pizza. Yeah, I am not proud of those times. When I relapse like that my sleep gets terrible and my blood glucose becomes elevated for days after.

The best thing that has ever happened to me, is Diet Doctor! I am a DD member. Also, I really appreciate the information here on the fractions of carbs. For those of us counting net carbs, the percentages below one whole gram really matter, because they add up. I have not found this information anywhere, except for on DD. :)

[@rand0m1s]

I found a brand of chocolate chips at a local store that are 100% dark chocolate. I have about 10g worth (turns out to be about 10 chips) with a cup of black tea on most afternoons. Ends up being a 1-2g of net carbs and really fills that craving I get to have something with my tea. Instead of chewing, I just suck on one at a time, letting it melt in my mouth. Once I stopped eating sugars and sweeteners, I found pure dark chocolate to be very enjoyable.

Bulletproof coffee, a handful pork rinds or beef cracklings, beef jerky, hard boiled eggs, cold cuts, olives, 100% cocoa (cocoa butter) Lindt excellence chocolate The Lindt 100% cocoa is only a 50g bar and 100g have only 1.2g carbs (sugar which is not added but solely from the cocoa bean mixture).

On a low carb diet, if I'm hungry and busy, I can ignore the hunger, stay busy, and my body starts using fat for fuel. When I ate high carb, this was not possible; when I got hungry, I HAD to eat. Or I just couldn't function. On low carb, I can almost always forgo a snack, so long as I'm busy. If I really have to eat something, a hard-boiled egg, a slice of cheese, and small pickles work. Or pork rinds with sour cream dip.

[@macylouwho1187]

I’ve been doing what I call dirty keto (not following stricter rules) for about three weeks. I’m down a size in clothing already. I’m watching keto recipes online and making them, making keto snacks etc, but not counting anything as far as daily carb count goes. Just making healthier food choices and eating low carb options of everything. Beware of “keto” marketing ploys on store bought things. They only count some “net” carbs on the front packaging so you have to look on the back and read the actual “total” carb count because that’s what you’re really getting per serving. It’s basically a scam, most are as full of carbs as anything else! You basically have to read the back of everything at the store and find the lowest total carb option on each product that you purchase. I make my own jerky in a special dehydrator that gets it up to a safe temperature. It’s not hard to do and you get a bunch for the money. Also I sometimes make it out of pork instead, you can barely tell a difference once it’s in dried jerky form and it’s a fraction of the cost of beef right now. (Thanks Covid and the greedy corporations who love to kick us while we are down). I’m not getting much exercise right now due to winter and living in a small town that has no gym. So keto is working on its own power with little help from me. I’m never starving, eating meat and fats keep you full for far longer than carbs that burn off fast leaving you hungry and wanting more in no time. I’ve always been an over eater, but yesterday I made it on just one meal because I honestly wasn’t hungry until supper time. That would have been utterly unheard of for me previously before stating keto. I ate every meal and was always hungry. I’ve come to realize that sugar and carbs are like a self fulfilling prophecy that keeps perpetuating itself forever as long as you consume them. You always want more and more and more forever until one day you wake up fat, unhealthy, tired, and miserable from eating yourself into an early grave. Keto is the first diet that made me feel like I wasn’t being deprived after I got used to saying “no” to myself on sweets and switching to artificial sweetener. I finally found one that I could stand. We often eat a whipped cream (small) berry and cream layered parfait cup with our dinner to sooth those sweet cravings. It is completely sweetened with Splenda from the fruit to the whipped cream and everyone in the family loves eating these. It’s not a large dish at all, so we get away with it and still lose weight. Everyone has been loving these new recipes and everyone gets full on this diet and stays that way for quite awhile. KZbin is full of good keto channels that do recipes and they ARE working for me. I’ve never been this happy on a diet before or had such easy success that required so little effort to achieve. It’s now a full time lifestyle change for us, we’re doing this forever. Only shop the outside edge of the supermarket and stay out of the middle as much as you can. Buy meat, dairy, veggies etc. Mostly simple whole one ingredient foods -back to basics before everything was a prepackaged nightmare of unhealthy multiple ingredients that make you gain a ton of weight over time.

[@mariannlyda9509]

It contains maltitol it's glycemic index is 35 and is a sugar alcohol. Can cause stomach problems in some people because of the way it's digested. It's still garbage.

Snacks raise insulin resistance. No snacks ever. Eat the meal only.

Ive always though that coldcuts are too processed and chemical laden to be healthy choices.

An 8 inch orange. Yes I imagine that would have lots of carbs.

Best to avoid nuts altogether - too easy to overeat and they can be inflammatory. I love them but I do much better without them... unfortunately

As many of us, for sure! I personally find plain macadamia safest of them all, since it''s mostly saturated fat, with the caveat that they are so high on calories that you cannot really consider them a snack :) Walnuts are fine with me, thanks to good Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratio and high polyphenol content, and they are difficult to overeat as well; still, there is an issue with phytic acid, and pre-soaking is a bit too much of a hassle :) And finally one or two Brazil nuts could help you to meet your daily requirement for selenium, just make sure they are fresh, since they go rancid fast!

Nuts are hard for me to only eat a few, therefore I avoid them all together.
