LCHF (Low Carb, High Fat) -Need advice

robinpurcell1

I'm just starting LCHF. So I need help/advice on where to set my macros for the induction phase. Calorie count as well?

I don't know why I've never tried this before. I love veggies & everything else I've seen in the numerous recipes etc. Hoping to kickstart a significant weight loss. Needing to lose about 70lbs....

You're welcome :-). I have been HCLF for many months now and it works well for me. I hope you enjoy it.

I order to lose weight you need to eat less calories than you body needs per day. So yes calorie counting is a must. You can gain weight on a LCHF diet if you eat more LCHF than your body needs and you can lose weight on a 95% carb only diet if you eat less calories than your body needs. Calorie deficit is what matters for weight loss. Good luck.

Yes you calorie count as well. What usually happens with LCHF is you don't feel as hungry, you feel fuller longer, and you end up eating fewer calories.
