New year, new you! The keto diet can be extremely challenging, but armed with the right knowledge, you can slay your 2020 resolution and have a healthy year. But you probably have some questions, like…What do you eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner? The third episode of Us Weekly’s “KETO-M-G” podcast has got you covered with menu suggestions, meal prep advice and grocery store lists.Available to listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, iHeartRadio and Stitcher.

While it’s important to plan ahead on any diet or meal plan, the celebrity-approved high-fat, low-carb diet trend needs a bit of extra attention in that regard. “With keto, it’s basically crucial,” SlimFast dietitian and wellness consultant Maryann Walsh tells Us correspondent Jackie Miranne. “It includes a lot of perishable foods … things that need to be refrigerated,” says Walsh, pointing out that the fresh food is one of the healthiest aspects of the eating plan. But you need to make sure you have a stocked fridge and keto snacks that you can carry with you.

So before you hit the grocery store, make your list of keto-friendly foods, then plan to meal prep twice a week. Since you might not want to eat meat on Thursday that you prepared on Sunday, “split it up so things stay fresh and healthy,” says Walsh. Many ketogenic followers prepare meals on a Sunday, then again on Wednesday or Thursday.
