Today is a fasting day. Last meal was at 6pm last night, then I will break the fast tomorrow at noon, 42 hours.
Tomorrow is an eating day. One thing I have learned that when doing alternate day fasting, it is critical to eat enough on feasting days. I will always eat low carb, high fat, but even still, for women, sometimes it is difficult to get enough fat - thus The Fat Bomb. These look super yummy, but are not conventional. They are 100% Keto. They are taken at the end of the meal, since snacking is a major no no. Low, fat/protein will still stimulate insulin when ingested, so no snacking. The goal for me is to keep insulin very low to heal insulin resistance and regain insulin sensitivity.
1/2 Cup Coconut Oil, 1/4 Cup Peanut Butter, 1/4 Cup Grass Fed Butter, 3 Tablespoons of Cocoa Powder, 1 Tablespoon of Swerve (mostly a fermented sugar called erythritol with a glycemic load of 1 vs. say maltodextrin at 110). Swerve can cause bloating but it is such a small qty/fat bomb, and it has a little bit of a crunch like table sugar which is oddly very satisfying.
I put each item in a measuring cup, and microwave for 30 secs here and there as needed until it is a smooth liquid, and then pour the mixture into silicone molds (found at my bulk store), and then into the freezer. I keep mine in the freezer. They are super duper amazing.
