In arctic conditions requiring drysuit. It is estimated that between 6000 to 9000 kcal per day is necessary to survive. Which is consiatent with my own observed weight loss of 2lbs after a full day of div8ng assuming that 3500 kcal ~= 1lb

I thought the calories are correct too. Water here is very cold and requires the thickest dry suit. I find that the cold really shaves away your calories. After a day of div9ng and eating, I usuallt come home to find myself about 2 lb lighter. But ya, if I were to dive in my shorty in shallow tropical warm water with not…

Ya I read somewhere that to maintain weight and muscle, proteins consumption needs to be 2.3 ~ 3x grams your weight in kg. Which brings the protein consumption need to >200g per day. Seems impossible as that's vlose to 50% protein.

Thanks. I wasn't on keto but very close to it due to currently in a country where it's impossible to find the food necessary to go on keto. About 100 grams of carbs a day.

More consecutive rest days. Most guys would dream of being in this situation, but if you lost the menstruel cycle, something's wrong if it is not pregnancy. But yeah, get a second opinion on bf% besides the scaoe. The community is preety good at visually estimating it as they did for me.

What's your diet plan deanna?

Thanks everyone. Looks like I have much more to go. It also tells me that my digital scale is pretty accurate in measuring my body fat.

I remade a proper post here with all relevant information.: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10592479/visual-body-fat-check-contd#latest

K. Will work on those pics. Still trying to figure out how this forum work. Thanks Gallowmere. Will keep that in mind. Again, I want to evaluate the health effect on me for now and check if there are other options than keto to get there. Some days, I really don't feel good.

Hmmm. Well, my own abs didn't show up until I started training it every day. It was always there..., but it wasn't defined. I think that's what you are getting at. I also started focusing on the surface of the abs instead of the core abs to make them pop out more. The first time I try to do the ab exercise properlt, I…

One month i lost about 0.4% bf. Didn't lose muscle as I am lifting heavier. But even with keto, the fat loss is slow. Also, my caloric intact is 1200 less than yours, so not sure if comparable.

I Just stopping because I have reached my goal body fat, not sure if it is healthy to go lower. Fat thighs, not much I can do about it. My butt fat is disappearing before my thigh fat. Damn genes.

I am on a keto diet too. I lose about 1lb per week. But fluctuation per week is 2 lbs due to refeeding in the weekends. I don't know how you can get 3k cal with 150g of protein. Is that 75% fat or protein? My macros are about 1800 cal per day.

Thanks. Got fat thighs. Could be why the machine is off. I need to stop my keto diet now.
