I hear many complaints about the Keto food regimen, the #1 complaint is the cost. To that I say if you want to succeed you will find a way, if you are lukewarm, you will find excuses.
Make a list of what you currently consume a week and estimate the costs. Include EVERYTHING, eating out, snacks, coffees, drinks, etc... (Yes, even those things you sneak at work on in the car)
The following is a list of a typical week's worth of food I consume that is high in protein, low in carbs, high in nutritional value. (Estimate of cost in my area is included in bracket)
1 Dz large eggs ($2.00)
7 Boneless/Skinless Chicken breasts, approx. 8 oz each ($11.00)
1 Pkg, 6/pkg Multiseed Keto wraps ($3.00)
Asst. Cruciferous Veggies ($10.00)
Asst. Leafy greens ($5.00)
1 Sm Keto Salad Dressing ($3.00)
1# Butter ($3.00)
1# Shredded Cheese ($3.00)
TOTAL $40.00
Yes, this is a simplified meal plan, but you can see it is very affordable. I limit myself to 1,000 cal/day and work to get 100g of protein a day. My carbs have an upper limit of 20g/day
So, that is the takeaway? To achieve a goal, you need to have a plan, fortitude, and a desire to succeed.
KETO has changed my life, I have dropped nearly 200# pounds, and have never felt better in my nearly 61 years. I encourage you to try this food regimen, you will not regret it!
