anyone on Keto diet?
Keto diet week 6 now, i lose 3.2 kg so far, do you think is too slow? i keep 20 g carbs a day at the moment. I would not say that was slow. The keto diet works by calorie restriction, just like any other diet. If you can stick to the diet and but get enough nutrients etc then it can work well. Keto has changed my life. Couple this with regular training and you can completely transform the shape of your body. I've no doubt that modern food processing and especially carbs are this generations cigarette. Keto works by calorie deficit like any diet, no magic and carbs are no more fattening than fats. In fact dietary fat is more easily turned into body fat than dietary carbs. Thanks for repeating yourself. It really wouldn't be a Health and Fitness thread without you wading in //static.avforums.com/styles/avf/smilies/clap.gif I think you need a Snickers, you are not yourself today. I’m doing a 16/8 fast every day and in my 8 hour eating window I have less than 20g of carbs. My BMR calculation states I need 3600 calories I’m very over weight). I eat no where near that, more like 2000 calories max. I’ve been doing it for 4 weeks and am not losing weight, well it seems to be fluctuating all over the place. What am I doing wrong? Just keep going? Try different BMR tools, they vary. You may be calculating your calories wrong, read the food labels very carefully and watch for per portion figures. Thanks. I’ve joined MyFitnessPal, calculated body fat and used calculator to work out the macros to use in the app to achieve ketosis. States I should aim for 1994 calories to lose weight. Calories: 5% from carbs, 25% from protein & 70% from fat. Going to combine this with 16/8 fast. Will log my calories in the app carefully. Fingers crossed. Breakfast: 1 slice meat free spam
Lunch: 1 grape
Supper: as much spam as you like, with lots of salad.
