Part of the medical report I have just posted in Favourite Self Education finds.....
Counting or restricting calories is not necessary for lasting success.
- While many “diets” restrict calories in order to get results, a well-formulated ketogenic diet allows the individual to eat fat to satiety and still lose weight and improve metabolic health.
- Calorie counting is not essential; however, individuals must be mindful not to eat past satiety or purposefully consume fats in excess of energy needs in an effort to increase ketone values.
- For many people who have spent a lifetime eating a fat-restricted diet which promotes inflammation and inhibits satiety, experiencing the prompt sense of having eaten enough (i.e., satiety, not fullness) that occurs with nutritional ketosis can be a new experience. Working with a health coach and/or learning how to identify physiological satiety is important for success.
NO health coach for me.... but I have learnt to listen to my own body 😀👏👏👏 you will too, listen & trust.
