  • No, I'm not interested in more guidance on what people eat in IF. That's really not relevant to your original question, which was whether a particular dish (tofu-broccoli-coconut current) was appropriate for the dietary goals you laid out (keto vegan, along with OMAD and wanting to hit 100 g of protein, at some level of…
  • Those dishes are examples of vegan keto, they are not shown as examples of omad or IF meals, if you would like more guidance on what people eat in IF I suggest you go to the vegan keto groups and ask. IF is very common with people doing keto. Some people set higher carb limits while staying in ketosis which is why these…
  • I actually do stay within my limits and do not overeat. I eat extremely healthy meals and am very cautious with my habits. I have a variety of health obstacles which have slowed things down. I actually participated in a completely controlled 10 day cleanse where my only calories came from a premade green smoothie totaling…
  • Here is a link for those who are curious about what a vegan keto diet looks like. https://www.ruled.me/comprehensive-guide-vegan-ketogenic-diet/
  • And, the amount of saturated fats in a vegan diet is significantly less than in a meat diet, I think every one can agree on that, so don't get hung up on the small .5g in this or that nut/vegetable/fruit.
  • I am not new to being vegan and have been a vegetarian over 20 years, so that is not restrictive for me in the slightest. Keto is restrictive in the sense that it is switching up macros to induce ketosis. OMAD is not restrictive within foods that are being eaten, it just condenses the meal into one meal a day. Anyone who…
  • MFP is not the only group I belong too and it is very rarely the group I go to for support, I almost never post here. And now I remember why. I also use other trackers. And I don't go over my calorie limit. I am just trying a different way of eating, I feel good about my choice. I suggest that if you don't understand it…
  • The calculator suggested 100g protein a day for me.
  • Lots of people have success with keto, vegan is just a different, healthier option. Why so many negative comments, do you all make comments like this on the other keto posts??? Give it a rest! I'm going to be eating within a healthy deficient and carefully monitoring my macros. I won't even be consuming saturated fats!…
  • I am using a macro calculator based on my body and goals, here is a link. It was suggested to me in another vegan keto group. https://keto-calculator.ankerl.com/
  • That's exactly what people said when I became I vegetarian over 20 years ago, and when I became a vegan last year. It's not always easy to make changes, but I am able to make a goal and stick to it. I am not looking for people to be downers, I am not suggesting anything unhealthy. Only helpful vegan keto recipes and food…
  • Also, I plan to use OMAD to help me along with the process not as a long term thing. OMAD will simplify and help me focus on the macros, I do not think it will be sustainable long term like IF is for me. I don't think any of it will be easy, but I can try it out and see how I feel for a couple months. What I am doing now…
  • I have been doing IF for a long time. OMAD cuts the window to an hour. It actually works really well for me, because I don't have to carefully prepare several dietary restrictive meals a day, I focus on one. I can fast for long periods of time, but I do prefer a big meal over small ones spread out. I have been doing CICO,…
  • My goal is fat loss. Last year I read The Starch Solution and went high carb/low fat and was fairly opposed to keto because it is traditionally heavily meat based. My mil went keto and died a year later from cancer, I have no doubt the primarily meat diet contributed. However, after a year of mostly eating carbs, starting…
  • I have heard it is very difficult to build muscle while eating in a calorie deficit, so what does weight training do when calories intake is low?
