I really want to do the keto diet (but I love carbs so much- wah wah wah, you've heard it all before, I'm sure) and was just wondering if anyone on this site is currently doing keto??
If you've never heard of keto before, here's the basic concept:
A Ketogenic Diet is any diet that causes ketones to be produced by the liver, shifting the body’s metabolism away from glucose towards fat utilization. Typically on a moderate to high carb diet, the body will prefer glucose for fuel (usually from dietary carbs), but by restricting carbs, the body will prefer fat for fuel. By inducing ketosis and feeding your body on fat, you'll begin to lose weight.
So you're eating 60% fat, 35% protein and 5% carbs. Does that sound like what you're doing??
