Anyone doing Keto or Code Red? I am losing inches but I’m anxious to get more in the next week. I’m thinking of cutting dairy completely for a week. Anyone have experiences to share?

    I have done keto for most of the last few years. I do not follow a specific plan though. I just eliminate refined carbs and limit the rest. I've never heard of code red.

    Unless you have a medical condition preventing certain foods you don't need to restrict anything from your diet. The more you restrict, the less likely you are to make lifetime changes and the more likely you are put put that weight back on plus a bit extra.

    You don't need to hand money over to any company for 'miraculous' weight loss results. Most of them are gimmicks at best and long term, the only thing you will lose is your cash.

    To lose weight the only thing you need to do is burn more calories than you consume. The way you achieve this most successfully will vary from person to person but in the end it will always boil down to calories in verses calories out, even with any medical condition you may, or may not have as some conditions can affect your metabolism. This will just mean your calories out are atypical in comparison to the norm.

    Looks like a standard whole foods diet to me. Reduced processed food. Something I already do. Don't like the idea of "free" foods. They are all calories. It can be hard to over eat on brocoli, but still has calories.

    I am on Keto. If I feel like my weight loss is slowing, I implement intermittent fasting 16:8 at least 2-3 times a week. Basically, I'll eat between 6:30AM and 2:30PM (Keto) and be done eating for the day. Once keto adapted, the intermittant fasting is easy because your body has identified a different fuel source.

    once in keto your body already identified a different fuel source aka ketones. has nothing to do with IF or making it easier. it may work that way for you,but wont for everyone and and weight loss will slow no matter if you do keto,IF, or any other way of eating. its only fast on keto for a short time due to the depletion of glycogen and excess water from the body in the beginning.

    To clarify my post. When I say intermittent fasting is easier, it is because my body HAS already identified another fuel source, and therefore I'm not craving carbs or feeling hungry while I'm fasting. You are correct, it doesn't work for everyone, and I'm not sure I implied it did. Our bodies are all different and we have to figure out what works for us. The original post asked for our experiences, and I shared mine and what was has worked for me.

    do you crave carbs the other days you dont fast? the keto is most likely the reason you arent craving carbs as its reported by most who do keto that the carb cravings have slowed down/went away. IF is just a window of time in which you eat your meals. if it works for you great..Ive done IF for more than 3 decades and still do it because it works with my eating schedule
