My Zero Carb Meal Plan

Please note, this is what I ate for my zero carb challenge.  I am not a nutritionist nor a doctor, so I cannot determine if this meal plan would work for you.

My macro goals for this week were:

1,200 Calories

0% Carbs (0g)

75% Fat (100g)

25% Protein (75g)

Now, before I start, I do realize that products such as cheese and heavy whipping cream and probably the sausage and pepperoni sticks, do have trace carbs.  The tracker on MyFitnessPal does say I ate 0g of carbs, but I'm sure when all the trace carbs were added up, it was probably averaged to around 3g per day.

I did follow a mainly carnivorous diet, with the exception of 1/2 tbsp of coconut oil that I used in my coffee.

You may also notice that I did this entire week without the addition of eggs.  I do not like eggs so I did not eat them.  This meal plan just goes to show that you can do a zero carb challenge without eggs, but of course, if you do like eggs, add them in!  Just remember, like the cheese and cream, eggs also have trace carbs.

If you want to see my thoughts, experiences and results from following this meal plan, I will link that post here.
