In January, I finally reached my lowest weight since quitting keto—and I’m really happy because it’s even lower than what I achieved during my last phase on keto.
As you can see, carbs were never the problem—I can lose weight while eating everything in balance, as you will see from this glimpse of my nutrition in January.
A little side note: I took a reset week in Fuerteventura, soaking up some much-needed sun and vitamin D. The weather in the Netherlands has been unbearable!

Breakfast/Post workout: Bread with peanut butter and banana
This is still one of my favorite breakfast options. This combo is amazing, and it’s even better with a sprinkle of cinnamon powder.

After Dinner Dessert: Protein Snack or sometimes not
Trying to avoid dessert after dinner, but sometimes, we just need it, right? I do my best to keep it light—grabbing a protein bar or something— sometimes (sporadically, usually in that period of the month) I like spooning straight from the chocolate cream jar.
- Macros: Approx. 267 calories | 9.6g carbs | 25 fat | 3.7g protein (14%-81%-5%)
- Lately loving: Double Protein Cookies | code: SIMONAZ
Still trying to keep my calories around 1,500-2000 depending on the active level of the day.
Balance and moderation are key, and I’m loving my meals and snacks.
