    So you’ve chosen to try out this whole thing keto thing, but aren’t really sure where to begin?

    Keto diets are a great choice for consistent, often quick weight loss.* In a nutshell, ketogenic diets work by forcing your body into ketosis, the physiological state where your liver produces ketones to break down fat instead of carbs. (It’s what we do when our bodies are in survival mode.)

    They do that by cutting out sugar and carbs and focusing on healthy fats and protein-based eating instead.

    Diet-to-Go’s Keto-Carb30 plan takes the thinking out of it by providing chef-prepared, delicious meals with an average of 30 net carbs per day that are delivered right to your door or available to pick up fresh in many cities.

    We want to help set you up for success when you choose to go keto. We rounded up the 20 best keto blogs for 2020 — which offer everything from start guides, to personal journeys from others who have done keto, to recipes and much, much more!

Katie has been featured in countless TV shows and magazines (for good reason). Use her recipe index to search for pages and pages of keto-friendly desserts. Plus, her blog includes her personal day-to-day happenings (including an emotional post about her battle with exercise addiction and online bullying.) It’s no surprise she has one of the top-rated blogs on the internet.

    Sample Recipe: Keto Ice Cream — Just 4 Ingredients

Brenda’s three children keep her busy, but she’s managed to balance that with a healthy lifestyle for herself, her family and her devoted followers. Her blog’s latest focus is all things keto and includes recipes, meal plans, detoxes and a one-stop shop for all Brenda’s favorite kitchen tools.

    12) Ketogasm by TashaKetogasm

    It’s hard not to love Tasha’s style from the start. She knows taking on a keto diet can be challenging, which is why her goal is to make it fun (and therefore more doable). Tasha herself struggled with her body — at age 30, she had infertility, PCOS, pre-diabetes, depression and weighed 251 pounds. By embarking on the keto diet, she shed 90 pounds and used a keto diet to provide her body with the proper nutrients to combat her PCOS. Fast-forward to today and she’s the mom of two little ones and found her self-confidence along the way. Tasha believes eating right should be equal parts pleasure and nutrition — and that mindset is evident in every recipe, meal plan and guide you’ll find at “Ketogasm.”

    Sample Recipe: Keto Alfredo Sauce

    “I’m not a health guru, medical professional, or even someone who claims to have all the answers. I’m just a lady doing keto right along with you. ...

Brandi grew up as the “skinny girl” for most of her life, but when her metabolism slowed in adulthood, she started to research ways she could maintain her foodie philosophy while still being healthy. She started exercising and developing recipes that were balanced and nutritious, easy to prepare and foodie-approved. Much of her blog focuses on easy, tasty keto recipes that are unique and flavorful.

    Sample Recipe: Easy Keto Low-Carb Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole
