I tried it, but the insulin spike after my morning brushing of the teeth nearly made me faint cause the body was just overreacting to the sudden carb influx from the toothpaste. So I'm back on a normal diet now :-\

Ich weiss. Ich habe die Geschichte studiert, aber im Ernst, wieviele Dubliner labern miteinander auf Irisch? In der Gaeltacht ,ja klar gibts das, deswegen heisst es auch Gaeltacht, aber naja...ist auch die Sprache der Nationalverfassung, aber die ist am Boden seit Ewigkeiten. Sie ist nur noch eine Sache fuer die Buecher und Leute an den Unis....

Die Sprache ist halt so lange unterdrückt worden das sie nicht mehr "actuel" ist sprich den weg in in die
heutige Zeit nicht gefunden hat.
Es wird jedoch speziel in Dublin viel unternommen um die Sprache an die breite Befölkerung heranzutragen.

Aber in der hinsicht gibt es viele weltliche Beispiele, Schweiz - Retoromanisch for excample.

That sounds brutal. You must have dropped a shitload of fat though? Were you extremely overweight?

Why not lower your fat/protein 10% and add some carbs? It's not gonna hurt, since you'll still be in a deficit.

Zero carbs puts a lot of stress in your body and brain...

Well I have considered raising it to maybe 20 grams just for some greens. I want to stay in ketosis. Like I said this weekend, after 3 weeks of no carb, will execute carb loading day.

Then explain to me EXACLTY what you mean. What kind of stress does it cause to the brain and body. Please be specific. Or just be humbled and admit you are wrong, because you are.

have a baby.  For the rest of your life, you will have to FIGHT to keep the weight ON.

It was EASY to sit around at 215 pounds back when I could eat all night and sleep all day.

Today I can't hit 180 again.

Only for the first few days until you've adapted to using fat as your primary fuel.  Some populations, like the Inuit, live a lifetime on zero carbs.  Their diet is all protein and fat.  Paleolithic hunter-gatherer humans were primarily protein/fat. They got very little carbs... just some vegetables and occasional fruit.

Humans, most humans at least are in evolutionary terms still very much low carb oriented. 10,000 years tops have grains and the like been around.
