Allright, ladies. Critique welcome. Here we go.

Been on keto the last week. Lost 8 pounds (water weight I'm sure). My diet is not right and I know it. I sat down the other night and wrote it out. Way too low in fat and too high in protein.

The only drinks I'm allowing is water and diet coke (limited to two a day)

meal 1: 8 oz chicken breast one TBS UDO's
meal 2: whey shake
meal 3: can of tuna- plain
meal 4: whey shake
meal5: chicken, steak, salmon....whatever's on hand
meal 6:handfull of almonds or whatever is on hand

Allowing ZERO carbs Monday through Saturday. Refeed on Sunday with complex carbs headed into the next week.

Suggestions welcome.

In other words HELP! I know I'm not doing this right. I can nail a low carb diet but this is the first time I've tried keto.

No. But don't stand within 2 feet of me. I can taste my own breath. I should own stock in Trident by now.

Quote: Trogdor strikes again!    Reply » Keto Quote: Take your maintenance calories. 30% of those should be protein (at least 1G/lb. bodyweight). the rest should be from fats. Of that 70%, about 75% of those should be non-saturated fats (fish oils, flax seed oils, nuts, avocados, etc.). The other 25% can come from McDonalds of you want. Yeah. Aside from the salmon and the almonds, there is no fat in there at all. That lack of fat is gonna make this keto diet unbearable - and ineffective.    Reply » Keto the low fat may be causing your aching joints . get some calories from quality fats asap.
