Palumbo's diet

[mossel]

only downside on this diet is the taste in your mouth...

yuk...

[alnassak]

This is my 8th week on diet and I eat about 75-100 grams of Carbs and about 200 grams of protein while I eat minimum amount of fat around 30 grams.  Everything is running smoothly with me

No carbs on a diet...?

You sure the taste isn't due to ketosis?

I don't have any bizard taste in my mouth.

That's not keto...

Yeh, I was kinda confused by that comment. Sort of out of the blue. lol

[LurkerNoMore]

here is what I am doing right now


Meal 1 6 whole Omega-3 eggs
Meal 2 8oz chicken with 1/2 cup raw almonds
Meal 3 50g whey with 2 tablespoons all natural peanutbutter
Meal 4 8oz salmon with 1 cup asparagus with 1 tablespoon macadamia nut oil
Meal 5 50 g whey with 2 tablespoon PB
Meal 6 6 whole eggs

That seems a bit low by what he normally recommends.  What is/was your starting weight and what weight are you shooting for?

The one he hands out for a 200lb man is like 5 whole Omega eggs + 4 egg whites as meal 1, protein shakes and ANPB for meal 2 and 4, lean chicken and cashews for meal 3, meal 5 fatty meat meal (which yours looks exactly like what he suggests), meal 6 protein shake + ANPB or more eggs.

that's the diet he first wrote on MD 2 years ago.
I think he modified it since then

no veggies, how are you getting any fiber in?

[Stavios]

I dont get any !

Palumbo recommends that people buy his supplement "Fiberlyze" but I don't know, it seems like I don't have any constipation problems

[mossel]

i'm taking fiber suplements... works fine...

[Method101]

You're getting in only about 1400 cals?

You're going to have GI issues eventually, either eat some veggies or use a supplement.

I use a fiber supplement that I bought at Sam's Club called BeneFiber, its a tasteless powder that you can mix in a beverage or shake.
