Keto diet

[Ruffdaddy]

Explain how after being on this now for 8 days I have experinced no strength loss.

Wait you seriously think you're losing pure fat?!

It doesn't happen, he's 100% wrong here and he has done zero research and hasn't a clue what is coming out of his mouth. It must just be making sounds and he's wondering what they are. I've lifted the entire time I've fasted, and never experienced any loss of strength. Nor have I gotten any smaller, looking in the mirror. I think he may just be trolling.

Us? You’re the only idiot opposed to this type of fasting, and you’re wrong, again.

I'm 100% correct here. Do you really think that all of the weight you're losing is fat? Do you really think 1 weight liftong session is an indicator of muscle retintion?

This diet is for overweight people that dont need to worry about muscle loss.

Hour 24 of a 48hr fast. Went to the gym to test the theory of “omg ur miscles are being eaten alives!11”
On flat and incline bench as well as DB shoulder press and flys, all did the same weight and reps as before starting this more than a week ago.

Take measurements...post progress pics. Show us your magic!

I was discussing the mental clarity and a few other things with Don on Friday.
That was a neat experiment, but I’m back to eating lunch and dinner again today.

It's your funeral, you tub of shit.

The owner of the Co I work for has only eaten one meal a day for a couple years now. He eats nuts throughout the day as he pleases, then eats a big meal at night. He swears he feels better, has better mental clarity, energy, etc. He's lost a lot of weight and has maintained great health.

I’ve done 23-24 hours fasts the last three days. This didn’t really start out intentionally, but I reached hour 17 on Friday and wasn’t hungry so I just kept going. I’m on a cycle of eating one meal per day without any hunger or cravings in between.

Lasted 48 hours before having a couple pieces of cheese last night. Down 9lbs total this morning. Fasted again from last night until now and just finished an 8oz ribeye and two over easy eggs. A whole new appreciation for real food when doing something like this. Especially flavor.
Probably going to stick with either 24’s or 48’s from now on. I’m now 11lbs away from my goal.

On hour 36 since last meal. As stated, snake juice does work in keeping your head straight. Will have breakfast tomorrow evening with some steak and broccoli.

What on earth are you blabbing about? You're clearly drunk and not even following your own diet advice so why are you talking?

This entire time my problem with the starvation method of weight loss is that you will lose muscle mass among other things.

Using SS as an example, hes lost 6 lbs. A max of 2 of those are fat...the other 4 are a mix of water, waste and muscle. If he loses just 0.5 to 1 lb of muscle every single time he does an extended fast the consequences will add up quick.

I also said that if all you care about is losing weight...then sure this diet is fine. So yeah some overweight alcoholic like you will see a big benefit. But anyone in shape better be prepared to sacrifice muscle going though this unless they're on the needle.

Yeah I knew better, forget I said anything. You don't even know what starvation means, so we're not going to get very far. I'm quitting while I'm ahead, I should never have started. I'll let you take it from here, I'm out.

[Ruffdaddy]

That hurts.

I'll be just fine, Mom.

I just worry about you hunny...
