The point is, fasting that long will almost certainly lead to weight lost, but a keto diet is not superior! The evidence does not support this and neither does common fucking sense.
I ate low carb for like 4 fucking months. And felt and performed sub par the entire time. Carbs are energy. My guess is that you were eating poor quality carbs and/or too many carbs before and so cutting those out helped you.
Also your lifestyle is one that's easy to get away with low carb on. Try lifting weights 2-3 hours a day for 5 years and getting super strong and jacked and then tell me how good you feel eating low carb and fasting till 6pm. No high performing athlete eats anything close to this diet.
No i agree with you. If you're lifting weights or doing something like boxing you need your carbs. But if you're just trying to lose weight its the easiest way!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But keto is not the easiest way to lose weight. Calorie matched low fat diets do just as well. Keto worked for you but it does not work for everyone. Trust me man I've helped people diet before. The best approach at getting a calorie deficit depends on the person.
Yeah but not having that sugar spike makes it easier to lose weight. When you are eating carbs and you fast or eat less you feel like shit. Once you get over the keto flu you feel like you could not eat for days. You dont get that same shitty feeling anymore when you cut the calories
That's just not true man. Idk who told you that or if it's just what you think but I'll go with the studies of hundreds of thousands of people on this one.
So what are you saying? The keto diet is bullshit?
You said "that's not true". What exactly are you saying isn't true? Are you saying that carbohydrates do not raise your blood sugar? Fats do not raise your blood sugar the same. That's why it's easier to fast on Keto. You're not getting a blood sugar dive like if you were eating carbs. This is not an opinion and this is science. This is why all nutrion experts recommend fasting on keto for extra weight loss. Fasting and keto go hand and hand. I really get the feeling you have not read anything about keto.

You feel like that until about a week later when you get over the keto flu. Carbs are like drugs bro. Once you come off them you feel great

Oh hey were closer than I thought to agreeing.
