I've gained about 30 fucking pounds since the (((pandemic))) began in 2020 and feel like a big fat hillbilly.

I'm 220 and my target is 190, which is my usual weight.

Anyone want to give it a go?

Just do intermittent fasting -- skip breakfast.

Yep, that is part of it. Fasting helps kick your metabolism into ketosis.

My best results were on one meal a day, low carb, dropped 77lbs in 10 months

Wow nice. Congratulations.

Keto definitely works to shed weight, I actually went from 230 to 210 last year doing keto the first half of the year. Plan forward is not keto since main goal is to put on more muscle mass and I think a reasonable amount of carbs pre-workout help since insulin is anabolic.

Been doing keto since April/May-ish because got covid bs and gained weight, and also just wanted to lose weight. Lost quite a bit pretty quickly. Also lost my smell/taste and it still hasn't really come back fully so that helps. Definitely feel a lot better on keto. So does the fiance. I eat less for sure, and we have more energy. And anytime we eat carbs now we feel like slugs. You can't un-feel the effects of carbs after you cut them out.

Fad diets are for NiggerFaggots. Eat sensibly and workout. Workout is the key here. You can eat whatever the fuck you want so long as you burn it off.

Calories in = Calories out.

Nup, not the full picture. There is also calorie wastage. Your body will dispose of unneeded energy via your break and body heat. Look it up. Metabolism is complex

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

You sound fat.

Your metabolism isn't going to be worth shit if you don't teach it to turn itself up by regularly exercising. What's burning off all the energy if all you have is little girl muscles?

Keto is for lazy people who don't want to admit that reward requires effort.

I ran 8km this morning. I do that at least 5 days a week. Its been a good change of pace from lifting fuck off heavy weights at the gym because of lock down closing them all. I run with zero carbs in me and feel great. Truth

been on my keto diet since July 14th of this year also frequently fast, starting at around 300 down to 240,it's definitely not a piece of cake(pun intended) but its doable...just do it

The more you do it, the easier it is.

I tried keto on and off over the years. It works but it's so hard to maintain. I've recently switched to CICO (calories in v calories out). It is working great for me. 17lbs down in about 6 weeks. You can eat anything you want as long as you are counting each calorie and staying under your established limit.

Keto and any other diet is based on CICO. You can only lose weight if you are eating less than you burn.

[–] • 0 pt

Keto is just a way to try CICO without actually counting calories. Fats are generally better at controlling appetite and thus makes it easier to not snack all day.

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

Yeah, you get full quicker on less food, like I said, it does work. I lost weight on keto a few times. I just found it hard to maintain.

[–] • 0 pt

Good job.

True, I mean you can eat nothing but cookies all day and still lose weight -- as long as you burn more calories than you consume. Not healthy but you will loose weight.

I have done keto for a couple months at a time and really wasn't hard for me. But whatever works for you. Keep it up.

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

I travel a lot for work, trying to stay keto on the road was tough.

[–] • 1 pt

Yeah definitely. Out of the home keto is tough.

I think a balanced diet is best. I don't think it would be healthy to just eat bacon all day either. Home grownand home cooked meals are best when possible.

"Balanced" diet is jew propaganda

A guy did that with cheesecake. He lost weight and his organs failed.

Rather than diet why don't you just start working out? You can keep eating what you want, you'll lose weight and put on muscle. You also start to enjoy it looking back at it as one of the best decision you ever made in your life.

Dude, I have been a bodybuilder and martial artist for 30 years. Getting old. Circumstances change. Still active as I could be but choices are limited. Of course I will diet AND exercise.

Fuck keto, go carnivore.

Once you adapt you'll never go back

[–] • 0 pt

Well, I mean, keto is basically carnivore, so... you fail.

No its not, since when is a plant a fucking animal?

I'm not doing it tomorrow. I will probably start the 7th. Then do it most of 2021.

Okay, good enough. I wish you luck. Let us know how it goes.

Can you provide a link to a good keto menu?

[–] • 1 pt

Not really. There are thousands of articles out there for you to consider.

My advice is to bookmark carbmanager.com or download the app, plug in all the vital info (height/weight/how much you want to lose) and it will tell you what you can "afford" to eat each day. Then input/track everything you put into your body and try to stay within the the suggested guidelines. After a while, you will not need the app and can do it on your own, but it is the best way to get started in my opinion.

The whole concept is to avoid grains and starch: rice, potatoes, pasta, bread, etc. It only takes a couple of months and then you can go back to eating normal (consciously) again.

I wish you luck brother, you can do it.
