Blindfaith, you see Lyle's latest article?
wannabebig.com has a interview with Lyle McDonald up, the proclaimed Keto authority. He basically says in the interview that Keto diets are no better then carb diets. He says it is basically calories vs. calories out. He also states that a keto diet does promote more fat oxidation but the high levels of dietary fat offset this.
So what do you think. I am currently on my second week of a keto diet and I think when monday comes around and I drop to low cals I am gonna try a ration of 60/40 or 50/50. See if that works better. I would recommend checking out that interview [url]www.wannabebig.com[/url] Kind of dissapointing.

i read that interview about a month ago...very good one indeed! But he also does mention that keto is still definetly the way to go! I have had sucess on a 40-30-30 type of diet and i have had better sucess with the keto.
I guess its what you prefer...with the 40-30-30 diet i usually hit a plateau after about 8 weeks....with the keto i dont hit a plateau at all. When im doing a keto diet i usually eat maybe about 1800-2000 cals...so when you do a restricted cal diet...no matter what kind...you are going to lose weight. With carb diets...i am always hungry, never satisfied, and always craving some nachoes or pizza etc. With the keto...i sometimes forget to eat and have to remind myself that perhaps i should be eating something. I never have cravings and my energy level is insane! i cant explain it but i have as much energy as if i were on eca...but without actually taking an eca...its pretty sweet.
But anyways definetly try other kinds of diet...manipulate your carb or protein intakes...there isnt just one diet out there...try em all...i have.
cheers

the example would need 3000 calories a day to maintain weight, and 2500 calories to begin fat loss.

Q for you guys: The man said that in order to maintain weight you should eat 3000 cals and to loose fat you need to eat 2500. so that means that i should eat 2500 or 3000 cause im confused.
