I mean, I sure do like pizza and beer. But my personal experience is that low carb diets are awesome. I've done the keto diet probably about half a dozen times in my life, and (after ensuring my electrolytes stay balanced) it has consistently given me positive results.
I first tried it with the notion that fat and protienn were satiating, and therefore it would be easier to stick to a calorie deficit. Simple. I disregarded all the people who talked about "more mental energy" or whatever bullshit - I just wanted to lose fat. But the results blew me away.
Without counting calories and while eating lots of deliscious food, I lose fat basically without trying and get a six pack. My athletic performance isn't diminished, and my hunger levels drop noticeably. Hunger itself feels less important, and my emotions in general become more positive - I am more likely to feel happy and grateful and to fall into flow states, and setbacks and bad moods bother me far less. I fall asleep easier and sleep more soundly. My skin looks better. And these effects persist as long as I am on the diet - it isn't just "losing water weight" or whatever.
Why does it do this? I dunno. Just does. Typically I eat a diet with lots of veggies, beans, some meat, and the occasional pizza and beer night. But comparing a whole foods keto diet to a standard american diet of processed junk food, I'm gonna go ahead and say that keto will come out far ahead, and I'm not gonna let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
Anecdotes are not evidence. Even from your own description it's untenable to pin down what your diet even is, other than, "whatever you feel like eating." In that sense it's virtually indistinguishable from the standard American diet itself. Here is an actual nutritional expert on keto:
Or better yet, just don't do it. It's a dumb fad diet that needs to die.
Sure, the plural of anecdote isn't data. But the existance of anecdotes is what drives scientific inquiry.
Anyway, the last time I was on the keto diet, I came down with a serious illness and underwent a battery of blood tests - essentially everything came back as totally normal, and healthier than an average adult. Turns out I had rocky mt spotted fever.
Rocky mt spotted fever generally comes from ticks, right? You're lucky to be alive. Uhh, I don't know how to tell you this, but I don't know what I'm even getting from your comments other than them sounding like a lowkey cry for help. 🫣
