Here is a Keto Broccoli Salad recipe that I enjoy.
8 cups fresh broccoli cut into bite sized pieces
1/4 cup red onion, diced finely
1/2 cup sunflower or pumpkin seeds
4 ounces cheddar cheese, cubed
3/4 cup mayonnaise
5 tablespoons low-carb sweetener (I use Splenda) (more or less to taste)
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 lb bacon, cooked and crumbled
Macros for 1/2 cup serving: Calories: 266, Fat: 25g, Carbohydrates: 4g, Fiber: 2g, Protein: 8g
Mix everything together and refrigerate for an hour before eating.

Get something like the myfitnesspal app. Even if you don't use it to track everything you eat, you can plug in a particular food and see the macros of that food. I used it to track all my meals and macros for the first 2-3 months. More than anything, that helped me learn which foods to eat and which to avoid.

I would say if you are having multiple sodas per day, you need to cut that out. I also think it impedes some people's ability to get all of their water in everyday. I try to drink about 90 oz per day to 120 oz of water per day. Drinking water will keep you feeling full and "wash" all of the stuff out of your system.

Pros, it does satisfy my urge for something sweet if Im out and about. It will also give me a feeling of fullness for awhile. Down side is the carbonation will keep your stomach stretched out and it will also trigger an insulin response because your brain senses you have had something sweet even though there isnt any sugar in it. For me, I havent seen it have much if any effect on my goals and progress in the past. Someone mentioned Zevias earlier, you may want to give them a try. They are much better for you because they dont have artificial sweetner in them. My wife loves them, I could never develop a taste for them.
