Are you BulletProof? I am looking for positive people on this diet.

Options
Looking for friends and people I can talk to who are currently on the BulletProof diet. If you don't know what it is, I am sorry but I am looking for people currently on the diet to compair notes with. It is the best "Keto" type diet I have tried and I think it is very healthy with consistent weight loss. Your thoughts? PLEASE!!! If you don't like a Keto type diet, do write on this thread. I hate who are just looking to be mean. Thank you!

    A quick little Google led me to this..

    https://blog.bulletproof.com/start-the-bulletproof-diet/

    Looks like paleo. Nothing earth shattering.

    I found this little nugget in the "Key Points"...

    Do not count calories in an attempt to lose weight. Eat until satiety and then stop.

    Actually pretty sure bulletproof is closer to paleo, although it's kind of a hybrid in that butter isn't permitted on strict paleo. (I also think Asprey is a scam artist, but whatever.)

    Bulletproof coffee always makes me sad, as I love black coffee and it seems a shame to ruin coffee with butter and coconut oil, blech.

    The title of this thread keeps making me think of La Roux's song:

    Hm, in reading it, it certainly does sound closer to paleo than keto. I know people doing keto drink bulletproof coffee, but I think some paleo people do as well. Of course, the whole plan is about more than just the coffee.

    The heavy emphasis on the grass-fed and organic sourcing makes me think paleo.

    Keto is just a macro setting with carbs usually under 50g. Paleo, primal, vegetarian, carnivore... these are all ways of eating that can be used to hit that macro, chosen because the food is enjoyed, it improves health, and what not.

    I myself am closer to a primal keto'er since I incorporate dairy into my diet (a no-no on paleo).

    Asprey's diet is paleo primal based with macros on the low end of the spectrum, IMO.
