Are you essentially asking if eating at maintenance result in simultaneously losing fat/gaining muscle? For beginners, probably a little bit. For everyone else, probably will result in just...

+1 on the great job OP.

I'm also a powerlifter (and starting to get into strongman too), and I'm cutting as well, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to add in cardio. What was your lifting...

This is absolutely ludicrous. First, eating below your BMR is completely irrelevant from a physiological standpoint - it's just used by many on this forum as an indicator of "too large" of a deficit....

Right, which has nothing to do with choice of caloric intake.

Why would weight loss stall if he's in a deficit? You think his metabolism will be "damaged"?

Ah interesting alrighty, thanks!

Why?

Ok, sounds like you're not as interested in the details as I am. That's fine. And I think carb ups, if unnecessary, are what complicates things. Learning about the details I mentioned above would be...

Yea, fat intake is plenty on a daily basis, but I usually consume most of my calories later in the day at home, and I keep my vitamin D at work.



Sometimes I forget. So say I haven't eaten in 3...

Yea it's been a little while, so I honestly don't remember the details, and I'll be more than happy to find out I'm wrong. I'd really love to look into this later when I get more time though, because...

You need fat to absorb vitamin d, right? Assuming that's correct, what's a good amount to make sure I take the vit d with? For example, is it enough to take with my fish oil (could be 3-5 grams total...

JWood, you seem to be incredibly misinformed. Regarding fat loss, this happens via a calorie deficit. A "state that allows bodyfat to happen" as you put it, is simply consuming less calories than you...

What do you eat to get 60% sat 35% mono? Eggs and meat are usually 50% saturated fat or less. I know some cheeses and butter can be 50-60% sat, but I can't imagine having that be so much of my fat...

This starting your metabolism stuff is complete crap, don't listen to that OP. Furthermore, consuming breakfast in order to help consume less calories overall is a very individual thing. Plus, I...

Protein powder is actually one of the cheapest sources of protein. Usually you can get it for not much more than $10/pound, which is $10/454 grams. Assuming about 75% protein by weight, that's $10...

Ooo wow great, thanks! I've read the keto book twice, but it's been so long haha.

So I'm a bit confused though about one thing. I was under the impression that while you shed a lot of water at...

Thanks guys!

I ended up having a lot of carbs this weekend as a result of playoff football and being a ****ty dieter. My bad. As far as the adaptation process is concerned, you think this set me...

I'm not sure about the alcohol part. With ketosis, are you sure you'll really be fully "out" of ketosis? Your brain still needs the ketones for energy, or can that run off the alcohol too? Regarding...

Just curious to hear people's journey in the initial stages.

I started keto this past Sunday, so today is my 6th day. I'm under the impression that there's a general trend of few days to enter...

Who cares? Yes you burn less calories at night time, but you burn more in the day time. The timing of it all really doesn't matter. Even if you over-consume at night and store all the calories as...
