Restricting yourself from carbs?

Meh.

Its helped me recently break through plateaus. I realized I couldn't do the whole no carb everyday thing but 30-50g is easy at the moment.

If you want to burn more fat why not just eat less fat and do more fat burning exercises? A complete

The whole point of Keto is for your body to use fat as energy, not carbs, so eliminating fats would be pointless.

I agree with everyone saying Keto is a fad and not sustainable for long periods of time but if you're trying to get leaner lower your carbs will definitely help. Im a big fan of carb cycling.

What's the point of it?

I'm sure there are healthier ways to burn fat.

what's unhealthy about restricting carbs? If you ask me, keto is the healthiest way to eat. Getting energy from natural fats as opposed to carbs is a much healthier way to live, IMO. Most people have it all wrong with Keto though, it should really be a moderate fat, high protein as opposed to high fat moderate protein.

It's definitely sustainable, as I've been keto for over 3 years now.

Whenever you completely eliminate something essential it simply cannot be good for you in the long run. Also I don’t see how beneficial exercise can take place if you feel like collapsing

not sure why carbs are essential

Oooooook......... we can just stop there

It’s crazy how inconsistent chipotle is. Some locations are good while others be trash

I got a spot called Santa Fe near me. Same concept as Chipotle, but they PILE on the ingredients and have more ingredients. Two meals in one bowl easy. Place is a ghost town too, even though it's on a college campus.

Thankful to have one of the top 3 near me

You don't have any digestive issues? My stomach cant handle that amount of protein for long periods of time.

While I agree with you that carbs are essential when it comes to lifting and performance, the human body does not need them to survive, just look at the history of evolution.

so i take it most, if not all of you, skipped over that the fact that i said "for a month". therefore, i'm not concerned about long term sustainability. i also take it that very few of you have even tried it, so you don't have an educated response other than, "naw bro you need carbs". keto doesn't completely eliminate carbs btw. it flips your intake, where its higher fat and lower carbs. again, i know people that have gotten great results, and didnt intend on it being a long term life style.

 

[getback]

I wouldn't say I do Keto, but I definitely pay very close attention to the amount and quality of carbs I take it. Keto-ish I guess.

 

[suavamente]

the thing with diets is that you gotta try it out and see how your body responds to it

can't take another person's word

Where you gonna try it for a month hopping to achieve a certain goal? or just wanna try for a month to see how you feel and possibly go longer?
If you're trying to achieve a certain weight loss goal then idk if a month is long enough. It takes time for your body to switch to using fat as a fuel source.
You'll see some results but if you're gonna go back to your regular carb consumption after then those results might not last very long imo.

Definitelt dont NEED carbs. I eat low carb, intermittent fast, and work out on an empty stomach. I don't lack energy in any way.

People talk **** about anything different and new. Keto works 100% and is definitely doable for the long term but I rather not restrict myself so much so I keep my intake around 80-100 grams

Even after a month he would see good results.

 

[mplsdunk]

I know people who have lost weight off keto for sure but they were pretty large humans to begin with.

To each his own. I like carbs and lots of them.

 

[toros23]

If you are not disciplined enough to add lean muscle and watch caloric intake, then keto the way to go. I like carbs, they make me stronger.

 

[Barbados Slim]

Even after a month he would see good results.

If he continues beyond a month then of course. I'm just saying strictly one month will probably have very limited results.

Great logic there. Did I say that I was on a keto diet? . Try again. I said low carb and actually laid out the amount of carbs I consume.
