They always say starting your diet [1] is the hardest part. I agree that it is difficult to stop your old habits and transition into new ones, but I think there's something even harder. That's sticking to your new diet [2]. You may be loving the diet, but sometimes it can get boring eating the same things every single day. Especially for the keto diet [3], you're limited to certain food groups, so it's important to find ways to change it up. This will prevent you from reaching for something that will kick you out of ketosis [4] out of pure boredom. If you want to have some fun in the kitchen, throw on your keto chef hat and apron and try this seven-day meal plan. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks are included!
