The wedding reception included a menu that incorporated both American and South African cuisine. Dishes featured steak, mussels, assorted cheeses, and pasta.
Tim has been on the ketogenic diet since late 2011, so one of the dishes served was a keto-friendly salad made with baby spinach, bacon, berries, cucumbers, vinegar and olive oil. It’s a salad that Demi-Leigh described as a favorite of theirs.
According to their exclusive interview with People magazine, Demi-Leigh shared: “It’s such a simple salad, but we eat it all the time and it’s delicious. So we wanted it to be part of the wedding.”
Another keto entree was the groom’s cake!
"We chose a [keto] cheesecake. That way, Tim can stick to his diet,” Demi-Leigh told People. "I wanted him to have something that he could eat without any guilt."

Tim also told Rachael that when his father was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, his doctor advised him to try keto because they believed the good fats would help his brain.

Are you ready to #GoKetoWithTebow?
The ketogenic diet is a low-carb, high-fat diet that typically breaks down to 75% fat, 20% protein, and 5% carbohydrates. The idea is that by drastically cutting carb consumption, your body must turn to using ketones for fuel, which describes a state of ketosis. In essence, your body transitions from a carb-burning machine to a fat-burning machine.There are three main types of keto diets, with the Standard Keto Diet being the most popular among them. Starting out on the keto diet can seem intimidating and overwhelming to rookies, which is why Tim has partnered with KetoLogic and recommends the KETO 30 Challenge to those just getting started
The KETO 30 Challenge is ideal for those new to the keto diet, those who have not had success with keto previously, or those who have hit a plateau on keto (or just need to get back on track). Tim’s ketogenic diet guide for beginners is a great resource for keto newbies or those who need a quick refresher.
In order to make keto more convenient, KetoLogic also offers a wide variety of keto supplements, such as exogenous ketones and meal replacement shakes, and snacks, including Keto Crisps (100% cheddar oven-baked cheese crisps), Keto Snack Bars, and Keto Indulge™ dark chocolate candy.
One of the nice things about the keto diet is that you can test your urine or blood to see whether you’re in a state of ketosis. While not required, it can be motivating to some people to know whether they’re on the right track. And if you’re not seeing the weight loss you desire, it can help you troubleshoot.
Once you get into the swing of things like Tim, you won’t need to be strict on calculating macros and testing for ketosis. You’ll just know whether you’re on track by how your body feels and the level of energy you have.
If you’re struggling to shed unwanted pounds, want to have more energy, or simply want to feel better, we encourage you to #GoKetoWithTebow by committing to the KETO 30 or your own keto-inspired lifestyle!
