Carnivore diet.
What I've found is that you lose bodyfat up to a certain point, then your body adjusts to the reduced caloric intake and fat loss ends.
Your intra-abdominal fat goes way down which is good.
Likely your metabolic rate adjusts.
That may be true for some people. I lost 20 pounds of fat very effortlessly and with zero cardio training in the first 6 months, then lost another 10+ very slowly in the following 3.5 years.
That's the best way to lose fat without losing muscle, very slowly. That's the best way to keep it off long term too.
It's the first time in my life that I've been able to lose fat and keep it off long term. I've gained muscle and strength, and people who have known me for many years say that now I look just like I did 20 years ago, when I was competing.
I actually feel better, healthier, and happier now than I did back then. I get to eat as much as I want to and I actually enjoy the foods that I'm eating for the first time in years. I always hated eating canned tuna, skinless chicken breasts, egg whites, baked potatoes, rice, broccoli, oat meal, protein powders, etc.
Thousands of obese people at the Duke University Keto Clinic for the last 20 years have been losing 50-100 pounds of fat in a year with a carnivore type keto diet, with very little to no exercise. Surely if these fatties can do that on a carnivore/keto diet, so can the average getbigger.
