Hi all,
I recently went to a personal trainer / nutritionist to help me assist in my end goal and temporary goal of cutting down a bit of fat before I go away on holiday.
He recommended I go on a carb detox for 2 weeks and only consume carbs from nuts and vegetables.
This immedietly sounded like a keto diet and they way he explained what happens to my body during this process was also the same.
Unfortunately I cant get my head around the "high fat" content and my mind is telling me that its wrong haha.
Please can someone assess my diet below and tell me if i am on the right track. its 60% fats, 35% protein and 5% carbs.
Breakfast :-
4 x Whole medium eggs scrambled with 100% extra virgin olive oil (converting to coconut oil tomorrow)
1 x Rasher of unsmoked bacon
1 x 1000mg Omega 3 capsule
Mid-Morning :-
100g of chicken
1 x Rasher of bacon
250g of green vegetables
Snack :-
Handful of almonds
1/2 homemade egg mayo with 5 medium eggs and real mayo
Lunch :-
100g of chicken
1 x Rasher of bacon
250g of green vegetables
Snack :-
Handful of almonds
1/2 homemade egg mayo with 5 medium eggs and real mayo
Dinner :-
Tuna in spring water
250g of green vegetables
Supplements :-
Creatine Mono (Post workout)
Protein Shake (Post workout)
Zinc
Magnesium
Omega 3
CLA
L-Carnitine
Any help would be great!
Thanks,
Garry
