Low Carb Diet Advice

Lisa2215 · 2014-05-30 11:09:38

Current Weight: 72KG Goal: 66KG Have been on a low carb diet for the last few days, have been tracking using my fitbess pal app. Seem to be eating about 10% carbs 50% fat and 40% protein. Just wondering if anyone has seen results and how quickly based on a similar diet? Just wondering do people count calories too on this…

my daily calorie needs are 2200 calories, or thereabouts

what do you say will happen if I ate a paleo diet of 2200 calories and then threw 800 calories of almonds and peanut butter down my gob on top of that

The phytic acid in the almonds and peanuts would make your legs fall off and you'd lose weight.

TIL almonds and peanut butter are no longer paleo approved

think I'll ponder this while I munch on a bowl of frozen peas and yoghurt
