Sewing sew: I mentioned Maria Emmerich in a post above. She has written about 10 books about high fat, medium protien, low carb-no sugar eating. She doesn't call it a diet. It is a lifestyle.
The last 3 or 4 books she wrote have about Keto. They are explanations and then many many recipes using ingredients that will keep you in ketosis.
My daughter has been using Maria's books for a few years and has been in ketosis for at least a year. She had severe menstrual cramps, and they went away as soon as she started this.

Look in your grocery cart. Whole fresh foods should be 75% (including frozen vegetables), dairy and meat should be 25% and packaged foods should be only baking staples as needed. Buy a beginner cookbook and learn how to cook the whole foods. My favorite cookbook of all times is The $1.98 Cookbook. The recipes in that cookbook has fed my family on next to nothing when money was tight. Also More with Less cookbook is a treasure.
