Who These Plans Are For

These aren’t just for people trying to lose weight.

They’re for:

  • People new to keto who don’t know where to start
  • Parents feeding a family and trying to eat clean
  • Workers too busy to cook 3 times a day
  • Anyone who wants structure and simplicity

What Makes These Meal Plans Different

No clickbait. No 20-ingredient “fat bombs.” Just simple meals that get the job done.

Each plan is:

  • ✅ Low in net carbs (most meals under 8g per serving)
  • ✅ Built around whole foods (meat, eggs, veggies, nuts, oils)
  • ✅ Designed to keep you full and stable—no crashes
  • ✅ Family-friendly and easy to prep
  • ✅ Backed by real keto science (not fad tricks)

You won’t need fancy ingredients or spend hours in the kitchen. Most meals take under 30 minutes.
