Keto-friendly Christmas Sweet Treats
As you may know, I'm trying to eat Keto. I have been "trying" for probably about two years now. I don't think I've actually ever gotten myself into ketosis but I have lost about 18 pounds over the course of those two years so I'm happy with that!
Sometimes I fall off the Keto wagon, like when my boyfriend and I went on a little road trip over the weekend! It's just hard to stay Keto when you're eating out. To start off our trip we stopped at a local donut shop that makes BOMB maple bars, then we stopped at a Shari's for lunch and I had soup and a sandwich, for dinner we wanted sushi, and then the hotel gave us cookies 😳
It's ok though... I won't put that whole 18 bounds back on with just one bad weekend. I've learned that it's ok and I just start trying to eat Keto again the next day!
Why am I telling you all this? Well, because Christmas is coming... and with Christmas comes sweet treats!!
I'll probably fall off the Keto wagon again here and there but it will help if I have some Keto sweet treats to eat instead! I'm sharing two of my favorite Keto sweet treats (or fat bombs as they are called in Ketospeak!)
