The keto diet is a low carb and high protien and fat diet.

I am going to mirror the others.

This is a growing boy. A child, for God's sake.  I really believe these are serious and unhealhy mistakes. Might be ok for short term for an adult but not sure for a teen who can't see the price he may be paying in the future.

So far by following the recomendations on this website I feel like I am eating well but my calories are cut by 2/3 and my suger/glucose levels are already looking great.

We'll see how it goes but my feelings are that I have made only minor adjustments so don't feel stressed.

I also discovered my two problems are emotional eating and portion distortion.

I suggest playing around with the tools on th esite. They were very enlightening and woke me up but not unpleasantly so.

hotwax, from this and other posts by david, i'm guessing he doesn't eat veggies.  he's not interested in healthy carbs or healthy foods in general.  the boy eats spam.

I guess the original intent of your post was to introduce folks to a ketogenic diet?

The diet is nothing new at all.  It has been around for much longer than you have - decades - I certainly remember it when I was in college in the early 70's -

Tried it - lost about 40lbs - got disgusted with nothing but meat and eggs.  Gained back all the weight that was lost.  Don't really understand bodybuidling - strength training yes, body sculpting to the point of being muscle bound, to each his own. 

Really think a wholesome balanced diet is a much better way to go for long term health. I also think this site is dedicated to folks wanting to have a healthy lifestyle. Have not seen anything convincing that these high protein high fat diets are healthy and it is poor stewardship of our food resources to pump that much meat protein into one human body.  But if you are going to do it, can the spam and eat fresh fish and chicken.

one thing is that the keto diet can be upped a few calories to gain weight after the weight loss is done, so you are true about my intentions, im not trying to make everyone go on it but, im saying im going through it righ now
