But we have to remember, our bodies should be getting their carbs from non-starchy items like vegetables to help keep us balanced. With all the new keto products available more than ever, it's easy to only eat ice cream and chocolate brownies. We all love a good piece of cake or cookies here and there, I know I do! But we have to remember that even though it is keto, it doesn't mean it is the best for you all of the time, especially when you are trying to be in a deficit. I suggest monitoring as 0.5 carbs to be safe! Most applications don't count it as 1 net but there are always traces of carbs in this product. If I can say anything however is keep an eye on that heavy cream. With the help of trackers like MyFitnessPal and Carb Manager, we are able to see and monitor our daily intake easily! The cool thing about these applications is that they might already have some items logged into their system and/or scan a barcode to input items, SO simple. We might be enjoying our bulletproof coffee or breakfast and not realize how much we are consuming and BOOM 20 net carbs already done. The reason why it can be a major mistake initially is that calories/macros add up, FAST. Kind of like when you count your calories except here we also focus on carbs/protein/fat. I know right, what are macros and why do I need to track them? Macros are short for Macronutrients and it basically gives us the run down of what we need daily in terms of calories, fat, net carbs, protein, etc to help us either maintain or be in a deficit for losing weight. One of the biggest mistakes starting off is NOT tracking your macros.
