| Simply - nope. Our bodies evolved to survive famines, not to look gorgeous after 3 weeks of diet. If the body gets an information of big deficit in calories, the famine-surviving mechanisms will turn on at least partially regardless of one's body fat. And in female organisms the famine-surviving me... |

| You would, because that's a completely insane deficit. I usually eat about 100g of protein a day, 100g of protein is 400 calories. If one were to consume low carb and low fat, that could have alot of health consequences, because of the extreme restriction. Not necessary. On the condition you still ... |

| That's extremely bad advice as far as I'm concerned. It's unsustainable, and will lead to major hormonal imbalances and rising cortisol. I just wanted to point out that fats are not minimum amount goal, but cap on keto for weight loss. It is still keto as long as you keep your carbs below threshold... |

| First of all, you don't need to be doing keto. Second of all, you're not doing keto at all. The ketogenic diet is a high fat diet. Atleast 65 - 70 % of your daily calories should come from fat, 25 - 30 % protein and less than 5 % carb. Not really, there is no "at least" limit on consumed ... |

And to answer your question, it is kind of normal to feel weak for a week or two.
But in general it is not normal, on properly executed keto diet you supposed to have more energy as your body constantly burns body fat and should never experience energy deficit. |

| Be sure to keep your electrolytes in check, lack of electrolytes makes you feel fatigued and dizzy. Drink some bone broth, pickle juice or just supplement at least magnesium, sodium and potassium. Double check for hidden sources of carbs in your food. Some people don't really pay attention to things... |

| Maybe it's just me, but I find that raw veggies wreck my digestive system, so I much prefer to cook them. Also, most veggies are actually much healthier when combined with some fat, as some nutrients are fat soluble.(Vitamin A, D, E and K) Yeah, I believe majority of veggies contain some anti-nutri... |

| Your diet should target health, not weight loss. Do not limit calories immediately, address what you are eating first. Being healthy would give you more energy to be physically active and to have willpower. Weight loss comes naturally with health. Eat healthy for a while. Monitor your weight and mea... |

Healthcare industry is really skewed and it doesn't really target overall health of the patient and usually targets only symptoms. Majority of physicians are clueless regarding nutrition and healthy... |

Yeah, It takes way more time for me to make any decision. Even just picking something to eat at a restaurant.
I often toss a coin as a trick. It's easier to tell if you don't really like a choice made for you.
And this approach really helped with bigger decisions: https://sivers.org/hellyeah |

Mostly because I get anxious from thinking about it, then I get anxious that I can't draw because I get anxious about it. Been like that for a decade, so don't think I'll see any change soon ... anyway,... |

| It's not absolute weight what's important, but optimal lean body mass to total mass ratio. Physically fit person should have enough strength to manipulate own weight. Body weight exercise is a good benchmark, e.g. if you can do 30-40 proper push-ups, 50 sit-ups and like 15 pull-ups you are physicall... |
