Hi, I’m Jake. I’ve been eating low-carb for years (keto, and sometimes more carnivore-leaning), and it’s become the simplest way I know to feel good and stay consistent. I used to bounce between “good weeks” and falling off track — usually because I was hungry all the time and bored of what I was eating.
When I switched to keto-style meals built around protein, fats, and simple ingredients, things got easier. Many people find this way of eating can help with energy and can support weight loss — and for me, it also made day-to-day meals feel more satisfying and a lot less like willpower battles.
And Keto doesn’t mean bland food. think things like steaks with butter, creamy chicken dishes, cream in your coffee, bun-less burgers, omelettes loaded with cheese, roasted veg, and even desserts made with smart ingredient swaps. For most people, it feels less like restriction and more like finally eating meals that actually satisfy.
These days I focus on making keto food that’s straightforward, filling, and genuinely tasty — the kind of meals you can cook on a busy weeknight and still want to make again.

Why Keto?
Every January, loads of people want a fresh start — more energy, better habits, and meals that feel enjoyable again. Keto appeals to many because it’s built around real food and simple swaps, with meals that keep you satisfied so you’re not constantly thinking about snacks.
At a basic level, keto is a way of eating that lowers carbohydrates and focuses more on fats and protein. When carb intake drops, the body can shift away from relying mainly on sugar for fuel and start using fat instead. This change — often called ketosis — is one reason many people report steadier energy levels and fewer hunger swings throughout the day.
Keto isn’t about perfection or complicated rules. It’s a practical way to build meals around what works for you. Many people find that keto can boost energy, can support weight loss, and makes it easier to avoid mindless grazing — while still enjoying comfort foods.
What I like most is the fun side: recreating favourites without the sugar crash, finding simple ingredient swaps, and realising you can eat well without giving up flavour. With a few changes, keto can work whether you’re cooking solo or feeding a whole family.
This site keeps keto approachable, flexible, and enjoyable — especially if you’re starting fresh in January or getting back into a routine.

Quick Q&A
Go-to comfort food? Crispy chicken thighs with a cheesy cauliflower side. Ridiculously satisfying.
Do you ever go off-plan? Yep. If it happens, I don’t spiral — I just get back to a normal keto meal at the next meal.
Coffee or tea? Coffee, always — usually with a splash of cream & a pinch of sea salt.
Biggest tip for beginners? Keep your first week boring on purpose: protein + veg + a simple sauce. Build variety after you’ve got momentum.
