This recipe is good, however, mine turned out more like glue than oatmeal. Is this right? Also, what is 0.5 portions mean? I hate when the recipes say this or say 0.8 cups or 0.3 tsp and then has it in parentheses in grams. I don’t convert to grams. I know the 0.8 cups is 12.8 tbsp, can this be listed differently?
Hi, Denise2020. I will pass that message on to the recipe team. Thanks very much for the feedback.
Can I replace the pumpkin seeds with another type of seed or nut? How much?
Hi, Sheshe2. Absolutely! The amount would be the same.
What can I sub in for pumpkin seeds? Or can I just omit them?
Hi, Shannonh131. The seeds are an important source of keto-supportive fat, so it’s best to substitute for them. You can use any other seed or nut.
Hi there ~ I’m trying out 8 wk plan. Week 1 is only 80% healthy. Do these % change as weeks go on?
Hi, Rosina88. The keto plan remains at 80% because of the high fat content.
Can I use just almond milk instead of both? If so would measurements be the same?
Hi, Tracy0182. No, because the coconut milk (the canned type for cooking, not the beverage) is the main source of fat in this recipe, and what makes it keto-supportive. If you don’t want to use coconut milk, then increase the almond milk to 1 cup, the almond flour and grated coconut to 1/3 cup each, and the pumpkin seeds to 1.5 tablespoons (10 g).
Can I just eat Quaker oats here for this oatmeal selected meal?
Hi, Deitraj98. Oats are high in carbohydrates, and so not keto-supportive, which is why you won’t find them in our keto recipes. Oatmeal-like recipes that are keto use coconut or almond meal instead (they can also be based on other nut meals) to keep the fat content high. If none of those are appealing to you, please let me know.
I just started and looking for simple recipes that are low cost
Hi, Luz62, and welcome. What do you think of the recipes in your menu plan? Note that you can swap them for others by clicking on the edit tool, then selecting from the pop-up list of alternatives. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, please do repost here, and I will work with you toward a good fit.
Hi! New to this and trying to learn how to navigate the website. I was looking for an app that will help me open up, right to the website? Can’t seem to find it. Also, I’m a bit confused with the whole menu thing? Lol how many times should I eat per day? 3 meals and 3 snacks? When I look at the grocery list, I’m surprised that there are fruits and grains? Are those keto acceptable?
Hi, Ciccarone. The website in its entirety is available through the regular web on your smartphone – no download needed, just bookmark it.
Some fruits in small amounts can still be worked into a keto-supportive plan – it depends on the total amount of fat in the meal. As for “grains,” that’s just the way the system differentiates between coconut as a fruit or fat source and its use for flour, etc. Coconut absolutely is keto-supportive.
I had Graves disease and now am left without a thyroid gland. Are there any food groups that you would recommend eliminating? Tried other eating programs and I am not able to lose at all.
Hi, Poncho11. How long ago was your surgery? Are you taking thyroid replacement medication?
I’m looking for a keto specific menu, so is this s site that generates meals for all diets ?
Hi, Beej1. Your menu is keto specific, but we do offer other types of plans.
Why are there so many typos in the recipes? Puzzling to me…
Hi, Sclarke1984. I have forwarded your query to the tech development team. I suspect it may be because of the rush to create a variety of recipes. If you see something that interferes with preparing the recipe, please let me know, and I would be happy to help.
Can I substitute the almond flour for coconut flour? I have almond allergy
Hi, Shmwinston1. Yes – but note that it may come out a little thicker and dryer, so just add water to get the texture to your liking.
Hi, I want to do Intermittent Fasting. Will this work with this plan/
Thank you,
Juliana
Hi, JulianaR. Absolutely! Intermittent fasting is all about timing. We recommend to have your meals within an 8 hour window when you’re most active, then fast for 16.
I’m totally confused. This offer does not sound keto friendly. I’m new at this diet snd need someone reputable to guide me through it. Are you or are you not credible?
Hi, karenher. I am the Chief Dietitian-Nutritionist here. Starting a new plan can indeed be confusing, and I’m happy to help however I can. Note that the Trim Down Club has a few different routes, one of them being keto – you may have noticed our regular low-carbohydrate plan and been spooked. When you generate a menu set, you will definitely see only keto-appropriate recipes.
If needed, you can post any questions or concerns you have, and I will get back to you.
Hi,I’m new to this I don’t think I would be able to do the oat meal for the breakfast that’s a lot of ingredients and a lot of cost
Hello. Is the 17g carbs in one serving?
Hi, Cthorley24. Yes, 17 g carbohydrates in one serving.
Is 17 grams of carbs a lot for one meal on Keto?
Hi, NovGirl. What makes an item or menu keto-supportive is if it has the same or more grams of fat compared to the combination of carbohydrate+protein. Since this recipe has more than twice the amount of fat than carbohydrate+protein, it is keto.
Is this heart healthy I have High cholesterol and triglycerides
Hi, LuckyP. Keto diets in general might be risky in cases of high cholesterol and triglycerides. I would recommend for you to stick to the non-keto oatmeal recipes here, which are heart-healthy.
My husband has been following a keto plan for 6 months. He just saw his doctor for an annual check up. He was happily surprized. His bloodwork showed his triglycerides were well in the normal range for the first time in 18 years! His cholesterol remains in the normal range with medication but it showed significant improvement also.
