Paging be easy

Hey man, didn't you lose a bunch of weight using the Low Carb High Fat diet? (LCHF). I thought I remember reading a thread or some posts you made about this. I am currently going with this diet...I am on day 4 actually. It really isn't that bad, you get to eat like a carnivore and some green veggies and salads. Along with eggs and cheese. My buddy did this in college and lost about 40lbs...I am trying to shed about 20-25 so I thought I'd give it a whirl. 

eat mad bacon and eggs yo

the best advice for weight loss i've taken away from my experience that i could share with anyone else, is drink only water all the time. Unless there's booze in your liquid, and even then, you can just drink like a man (or my nana used to, VO and water) and just water down some liquor

good luck on your efforts

and thanks for the reminder, i know my sister said her and her bf were going to try a 15 day bout at it,,,,need to check in on her and see how they're liking it

as far as the results

i started the day after super bowl, 20 months ago. Pretty sure i weighed about 300. All i knew to do then was to ditch all the sugar drinks for water, and walk more. Was hiking the dog at least 4 days a week @ 5 miles. Lost about 50 lbs in 3 months

In august i found out about all the high fat low carb what not. Started around 240 Sept 1 and got down to 218 before thanksgiving. I partied a lot over the holidays and ate whatever i wanted really, and was about 235 when i started working out in february. I went hard at it for awhile and got back under 220 at one point this summer. Since then i'd figure the weight i put back on is all muscle, and i maintain 225 now and that's with eating bullshit all the time. If i did a round of ketosis i figure i could get to 215, but i'm enjoying eating all the crap and it's getting cold out,,,,,so i'll go back at it beginning of next year as we get on the other side of winter

What about heart disease?

You could have good cholesterol, low blood pressure, and have a major heart attack.

Having been overweight too could make things worse.

Gotta look long term.

 

not sure i follow, slikstiks,,,,what are you asking about heart disease?

YES...wouldnt the high fat diet put you at higher risk for heart disease is what he's asking.......

not sure where you guys are making the correlation between high fat intake and heart disease

i thought that heart disease were caused by inflammation which was caused from eating sugars and grains and the like

A low carb high fat diet is not just great for losing weight. It is a healthful and sustainable way of eating long term. Eating a high fat diet does not cause heart disease. It improves health and lipids while keeping you satiated for longer periods of time than a SAD diet.
