Have you ever tried a TRUE Keto diet?

[tom joad]

I'm not talking about a Low Carb High Protein diet where you eat your quality protein and complement it with a few low carb veggies and some healthy fats (avocados, almonds, good oils ...)

But rather, a true Keto diet that emphasizes FAT so that your Macro breakdown is something like: 5% Carbs, 20-25% Protein, and 70-75% Fat.

And to achieve about 3/4 of your diet being Fat, you have the green light to pretty much go to town (while keeping an eye on overall calories) on bacon, butter, cheese, real mayo, heavy creams etc. ... stuff that those living the healthy, fitness or bodybuilding lifestyle generally minimize or avoid when trying to lose (or not gain) body fat.

Did it work for you?

i did a real keto diet, where some people said to eat hi fat, mod protein amd dont worry about calories...

8 weeks later my wife was like, wtf i thought u were dieting? you look like shit"

went back to eating healthy and monitoring caloric intake and look great (for me)

[WannaBePro]

Yep, did it for about a year in 2014. Worked great for me. In fact, I'm doing it now again.
I ate about 70% fats, 20%-25% protein.
I think for it to work your body needs to adjust to the diet and you have to have a certain body type. And don't forget that calories still count lol. Why would anyone think keto would make you lose fat if you're eating 8,000cals?? makes no sense. Eat within your caloric needs and you'll feel full and energized.

its hard to overeat on a keto diet, your body wont let you, its self regulating...

Its not hard to overeat when you're a fatass  
Lord knows I can. But Keto gives me a feeling of satiety carb-based diets just can't.
In any case, I'm an advocate of the diet for anyone who has a big appetite.

Totally forgot to mention that. Its the easiest diet to follow that requires very little preparation/cooking. Cook up some meat and fish, and the rest is ready to eat  (from green veg to nuts to oils)

There is absolutely no reason to go that low, the low carbs high protein diet that you first  mention is more than enough to get you super shredded I was on that low carb diet for 4 months and not only did i get shredded but I got more insulin sensitive now I am eating high carbs and my body is handling it very well in the past i would be more bloated now I am a lot leaner on high carbs.

[Disgusted]

Lots of people have been doing it for years, in fact there are some who do nothing but steaks and ground beef and water.

[Rudee]

My body responds incredibly well to ground bison and green veggies, for when I need to get into top shape in a short period of time.  Don't know exactly what it is about ground bison.  I've tried going with extra lean ground beef because it's considerably cheaper, but bison just has an anabolic effect on my body and I get into shape very fast eating it, along with greens such as broccoli, spinach, etc.

Its not for everyone. But there are those who do it right and see great results. Its a diet like any other. It will work for some and it won't for others, just gotta find what works for you.

I've done both..the bodybuilding  (Palumbo) keto (which really isnt keto...and a true keto where fats made up 75%, protein 20%, carbs 5%..its definitely a great diet for maximum fat loss, it will get you shredded and fast, but if you're any kind of athlete doing anything endurance related definitely not for you..its a great diet for a person who isnt very active just wants to train and stay effortlessly lean i recommend it. Not the best for muscle building,  but if i was a prep coach i would probably put every woman client i had on it.

[local hero]

I did my 1st show as an under 21 on turkey/chicken,broccoli and udo's oil, 12 weeks, 6meals a day....

Definitely gets you ripped without cardio...

Agreed, also very effective if you know when to incorporate it, throw it into a prep for a week or two..lay off the cardio and it can do wonders.

my girlfriend does it, she absolutely loves it. if you're a pothead\cant control yourself around sweets it's eliminates any chance of you gorging and for some reason after about a month into it all she really craves is red meat.

How did you reach 75% of your keto diet being FATS?
That's what i'm most curious about.
I don't think one can get to 75% with just some daily omega 3 eggs + the fat from meats + an avocado + good oil on veggies (fish/flax/olive/macadamia nut ... whatever) + a few almonds scattered in ...
And I don't imagine you indulged in lots of bacon, butter, cheese, mayo, heavy creams etc. ... did you?
