Within two weeks of cutting them out entirely in exchange for a some dried seaweed crisp things I'm visibly a lot thinner. Jesus christ -750 cals a day and I barely notice it's gone, fatties like me have no excuse

You've been on keto for 8 months?
>>35607531
nigger read about ketones
>>35607556
Breh your brain runs entirely on glucose.
Yeah sure if you deny it glucose with your MUH KETO diet, your brain will pull some gluconeogenesis bullshit to keep going, but it's at a much lower capacity.
Also being in a state of ketosis impedes your brain's ability to consume glucose.

9 months. every 3 months i'll take 2 days off to binge on whatever the fuck I want.
pizza, brownies, & cheesecake mostly.
Then I go back to super low carb keto 1000-1200 cals a day
>>35607610
yup
its an utterly retarded fad that only hinders people who actually need to use their brains.
>>35607610
These effects last ~10 days, before your body switches to using fat for energy.

>gluconeogenesis
happens in a high protein diet, not a keto diet...... you post this shit every fucking time.
When you are on a 75% fat diet your body turns the fat into ketones and your brain runs on them instead of glycogen.
Your brain can run on ketones or glycogen. If it did not run on either or you would go brain dead when you are in a fasted state because when you fast you are in ketosis and your brain is using your body fat as fuel in terms of ketones.

Google "ketone bodies brain," idiot.

>>35607144
Same thing here.
Went back to eating carbs (only complex carbs paired with fiber, half as much as I did before my cut).
Feel 100x better.
>>35607144
you never go full keto
what happens when someone eats a lot of fat, but not ketosis level? does that help burning fat?
>>35612457
you grow a dick on your forehead
why would you ever cut carbs
you look flat and like shit without carbs.
>captcha is bread
confirmed
>>35612962
Agreed desu
I added bread back into my diet and even though I was eating ~160 more cal a day I looked a lot better
