I've already lost 4lbs since starting on Monday (Though I did mess up on tuesday and had high carb) It is abit boring only eating meat, fish and eggs though.

Plenty of other things you can eat
I eat vegetables, I love asparagus, cauliflower, mushrooms etc just track your carbs

Btw I'm vegetarian and keto. No meat or fish for me 😂

Typically Unnecessary. Restrictive. Difficult for some to sustain long term. Rebounds. A sense of cheating if you eat high carbs one day. May or may not find high fat filling. Cited as magical by many.

With that said I think diabetics absolutely benefit from this deit and is necessary or helpful for some health conditions .

In truth you can eat anything you want and if you enjoy carbs, those too. If you are in a calorie deficit you will lose weight.

Having a lower carb diet suits me as my markers have recently flirted with the T2 criteria - for me, it gives a decent level of satiation. Spolier alert: this macro mix doesnt work for everyone and for a successful woe, it really does need to be sustainable. Only you can decide what is sustainable for you - asking us randoms is probably going to get you lots of conflicting views

You can still eat veggies, dairy, some kinds of fruit, nuts and seeds etc on a lower carb/keto diet. Why are you so restricted in what kinds of food you're eating?

Nothing you do for just 28 days will have an impact. What happens at day 29? Back to old habits?

Make changes you can sustain for the rest of your life
