Considering trying keto! Would someone be willing to share concrete examples of go-to restaurant meal options? Is it possible to keto w/out meal prep? (Flying cross-country/no microwaves in the hotel)

It’s easy. 50lbs down and counting. Pick up packs of jerky or beef sticks and pork rinds. It’s honestly not hard to do Keto at all

All that and quest bars/premier protein shakes to help hit protein targets. Chipotle bowl of Chicken/Steak, Sour Cream, Cheese, and Guac

Haha. Thank you M1 🙌

Keto is incredibly easy when going to a restaurant

Find a protein you like, find a vegetable, and combine. Just be careful to avoid the industrial seed oils (“vegetable” oils) that are often in salad dressings, “olive oil”, and sauces

The first 2 weeks will be the hardest. I know when I’m in ketosis because my appetite drops to a fraction of what I’d normally eat!
Most of the time I don’t have any problem sticking to keto when eating out, but it can be a little more difficult when we do “tapas” style/shared team dinners or sushi. I’ve gotten comfortable just ordering separately or grabbing an extra serving off a keto friendly plate and leaving an extra portion of a non-keto friendly food!
Having keto snacks (almond butter, jerky, pumpkins seeds, ketomana, quest bars/cookies, wisps) is very helpful - especially at the airport when I don’t have time for a meal but need a snack!

I’ve been traveling for over a year on Keto — some ideas:
- Steak / fish / chicken with brussels sprouts, cauliflower, zucchini, mushrooms, or broccoli
- Sandwich in a lettuce wrap (eg, Jimmy John’s unwich)
- Bunless burger
- Fajitas w/guac, sour cream, salsa
- Carne asada
- Ceviche
- Entree salad with a meat or fish
- Greek kabobs with grilled hallumi cheese
- BBQ without sauce — brisket, pulled pork, etc
- BYO pizza (get butter instead of tomato sauce, all the toppings slide right off the crust)
- Grilled chicken w/pesto and mozzarella
- BYO wok bowl w/meat and veggies only
- Korean BBQ (no marinated meats)
- Poke bowls
- Brazilian steakhouses

Hi fishes, thinking for switching to other consulting firms. Current job at EY requires too much travel. So, I wanted to know travel policies of other firms before making the switch. Do employees get to travel business/ first class or it is economy only for both domestic and international? How good is company policy for ground transport, hotels and meals?
