The "problem" ofcourse re diet, its so far away from what food in general is eaten and socialy you are an outcast if you eat low carb, let alone zero.
Eating no vegetables/fruit goes against everything we get hamered in about eating healthy, although energy wise a child can know vegetables certainly don,t bring energy, planteaters need to eat all day long and bizar volume, think to stay close to home, gorillas.
But looking at western man, general health is so mediocer, almost nobody has a normal weight anymore. Even among kids is looking pretty bad. Now I am living in a not so fat country, in my extended family I can,t think of anyone being obese, m of female.
We humans are very much following the crowd, eating is very much a matter of demand driven. What the big companies sell gets eaten. Just saw a item on tv that lots of fast food companies from the us are coming over. Not that I eat there but still.
Re meat, this ofcourse has a very bad rep. The fat dogma, red meat dogma, animal cruelty, environmental etc.
You need a strong independent mind to pull it off. I even think if you would feed your kids a zero carb diet you would get in very serious trouble with law/school/ etc.
Or think eating lunch at work, eating out, any public outing, the looks you will get........ That alone makes it tough.
But the proof is in the eating. And longer term and also people who are already ok ish fit. Zillions of people start but only a few keep it going for longer. And B lots of people come from a very unfit starting position, for most number one is weightloss, and although important, thats a side effect, health is number one.
Shawn, question, thoughts about your liver? Do you have plans to check that. A very high protein diet is hard work for the liver (glucogeneses), I find it difficult to find studies about how much glucose humans produce themselves. The liver will adapt and get bigger. Not saying thats a problem. More we don,t have clue, foodwise I take doctors seldom serious. Often one glance is enough. If they can,t keep their own body in check.....
For myself, eat relative low carb, but certainly not super strict, feeling not super though, hard work gives me trouble, compared to most 50 year olds my hard work is ofcourse still ok ish, recovery I find below par.
At some point I would try zero carb for a while and see what it does.
Enough rambling...
Yesterday tried a low rate 500, goal sub 1.23 rate 32, but squats from the day before prevented a serious go. Fresh I can do that. Also work on our house still going on, not helping my sleep.
still. Expect fly and die though again when you go faster. For you proberly the best way.
