Carbs are conspiracy and the left gobbles it up?

Just because you are losing weight doesn't mean ketosis is healthy...

Cancer makes people lose weight too.

Cutting your leg off makes you lose weight too

These are both very dumb comparissons.

But I'll give you the benefit of doubt. Tell me why you think it's unhealthy.

Why are you doing keto and why did you stop before?

I don't really care what you believe.

Because I'm fat.

I stopped last time because I stopped being fat.

I agree it requires a lot of effort.

Then I guess stop shitting on what's working (and has worked before) for me with vague negative comments?

Nope. Google it or be ignorant. Your choice.

I'm a general physician who works on cardiovascular health on a daily basis. You think I don't know or aren't taking measures against the negative effects of it?

Why would you be here just to be a dick about something to begin with?

Sure thing regular user.

Not a fan of people spreading fad diet bullshit.

Eat fiber.

Go shit up the Taco Bell thread with your fiber

Keto is more of a lifestyle change then a diet honestly

Nah thats a problem people who don't eat fiber have

lmao what's wrong with you? I'm not spreading anything, and how do you figure keto and fiber are somehow mutually exclusive? Maybe you don't know much about keto and that's why you're being so hostile.

I don't agree, it can easily be either.

I could never do keto.

Not being able to eat so many nutritious and delicious food like lentils, beans, all kinds of fruits, and more is not worth it.

Maybe you aren't one of the people who thinks complex carbs are bad. But then your diet isn't really keto then.

Yeah that's the roughest part for sure. I miss bananas.

Again you assume too much. The fact that I'm not eating complex carbs right now, as they would still kick me out of ketosis, doesn't mean I think they are bad.

Would you ever try a vegan diet?

I was on keto two years ago and lost 25 pounds!

Bro, just put some Taco Bell bean pellets in your face hole, totally high in fiber and Im pretty sure theyre probably vegan

I may try a vegetarian diet in the future.

That checks out.

What specifically appeals to you about keto versus other dietary approaches to weight loss?

What specifically appeals to you about keto versus other dietary approaches to weight loss?

1. Stricter rules.
2. Carbs are my (and most peoples) main transgression food.
3. Measurable results on a daily basis with ketone analysis.
4. Has proven to be effective for me before.
5. Calorie counting help eat taste stuff while mantaining weight loss.
6. Protein and fat (and fiber) have been shown to be more filling than carbs.
7. Ketones means you are literally using fat for energy.
8. Cholesterol can be kept in check if you know what you are doing.

I lost weight from simply carb cycling. Not Keto, I only intake a moderate amount of fats particularly when I eat Omega-3s and Vitamin D

I lost a bunch of weight on Keto and then lockdowns fucked me up. Then the high price of goods has prevented me from getting back on it.

Keto works, but it fucks up your cholesterol.

A better option is going anabolic though, as you get the same weight loss, eat more filling foods so feel less like you want to cheat, and don't have to worry about fucking up your cholesterol.

Estatins work.

And long term use of these fuck your body up too. Muscle pain, kidney damage among others are side effects of long term use. You could try less animal protein and eat more nuts, avocado.

does it make your skin look nice

Love that you went for kidney instead of liver too. Don't feel bad, it was a 50/50 chance (unless you actually googled the shit you don't know anything about before spouting nonsense).

"There needs to be a lifestyle change" and "diets don't work" aren't the same statement. The first one is obvious, the second one is wrong. Did you even read the study that your shitty article (which is about the study) refers to?

You didn't, did you? You just read the article? Did you even notice "keto" in general terms isn't even listed?

what's your target and what are you starting at

Tells me to think before I post.

You have to be trolling, right?

All good brother. I'm w/ you all the way.

the reddit keto board is actually one of the few good places on reddit. there are a lot of ideas there.

What got me through keto was omelette with meat and cheese. Topped with avocado and sour cream. I would have it for breakfast and lunch.

For dinner I would just eat meat and make like zucchini noodles

Now now. Negativity is not what folks need when embarking upon the hard road of goal-setting and achieving.

Cheesy omelettes sure are a plus.
