any of you ever hear of this? no, cause it doesn't exist. I came upon it based on my own experiences and trial and error after years of trying everything under the sun.
ever wonder why your diet fails fails you? Macros are macros and cals are cals. so in essence ANY diet should work. calorie deficit = weight loss.
that being said, if it's not the nuts and bolts of cals in vs cals expended that fails you, then what is it?
YOU fail you. you as in your inability to stay on your diet.
ever wonder why you can't stay on a diet while others can just grind out month after month with no problems and end up shredded? it's because they, accidentally, have discovered a way of dieting that agreed with their personality.
think about it. I know myself I am all or nothing. I can't have x amount of carbs, x amount of protein, x amounts of fat. why? cause I will not adhere to it. why can't I not adhere to it? because if I can eat carbs and stay within my daily cal intake, guess what- a majority of my cals will come from carbs. why? because I'm allowed them. I am not regimented enough to measure foods, prepare meals, and whatnot. I need simplicity and absolutes. therefor ketogenic dieting fits me to a T.
there is no carbs. if there's no carbs I simply don't crave them. my personality doesn't let me crave then because they just simply are not allowed. so what then can I eat? protein and fat. and as a result I always hit my protein goal for your day. always. cause it's the only cals I can eat. that combined w fasting and an extreme cal deficit (ie the Galeniko method) works amazingly for me because there it is hard and all or nothing.
I urge you to take into account your personalities next time you diet. are you highly regimented highly organized? chances are a 30/30/30 or some other kind of macro provisioning diet is right up your alley. you'll stay on it cause it suits your personality.
no diet will or can work if you don't stay on it. if your not having much success dieting maybe look at your personality, then build your diet around that.
cheers.
