I have been working on this healthy lifestyle for a little more than year. I spent part of last year on a strict ketogenic diet, and lost more than 60 pounds. Then, I transitioned to a low-carb diet. At age 48, I have never felt better or looked better. I have to confess that I went off the rails during the holidays, but am slowly transitioning back to a low-carb diet that is sustainable for me.
I love that all of the food that I get to eat is filling and tastes amazing. There are times that I am looking for something new to eat though. Keto Bacon Wrapped Brats with Beer Cheese Sauce makes a delicious dinner and it feels like I am cheating. But I’m not.

Turn the sauce down to low and simmer to thicken while the brats finish cooking. Whisk the mixture once in a while being sure to scrape the bottom so the sauce does not burn.

Notes
I am starting Keto…easing into it due to not having a gallbladder. This will be on my ease into Keto list.
That sounds like a good plan, Meghan. I highly recommend easing into it and wish you much success.
