    Great article. I am sure I will keep going back to it. I am still not in ketosis (I think ). I have been on this a full week. Any suggestions? Also I work out 4-5 times a week, I shouldn't carb up until I enter ketosis and am out of the induction phase right?

    I recommend an Induction phase of 2 weeks before starting weekly/bi-weekly carb ups.

    I've just reset for 70%fat, 20%protein, 10%carbs, but I'm really wondering, how in the world to keep my protein that low. Apparently if we eat too much protein, it can get in the way of ketosis.

    I include fat with every meal. I cook in Kerrygold butter, use coconut oil with any supplemental shakes, MCT oil and heavy cream in coffee, make rich sauces... It's really decadent and surprisingly easy once you get in the hang of high fat versions of meals.

    "...is based on providing a maximum of 20% of calories derived from carbohydrates, 30% of calories from fat, and a minimum of 50% of calories derived from protein."

    I thought I read it incorrectly, but it appears this Australian version goes by a high protein ratio. Do you think this was perhaps a typo?

    Bump - Amazing link! Thanks for the post.
    Right now, i have my macros on MFP set to 25 carbs, 40 protein, 35 fat. Is that good? I'm new to low carving.

    I think you're meaning percentages. I set my carbs to 10%, protein to 20%, and fat to 70%. The goal is to keep net carbs around 25-30 carbs a day (after subtracting fiber).
