Low Carb - High Fat diet

[Old Greg]

We will see. In all honesty, there isn't much to leave her so the benefits are moot. My financial planning was non existent and being young and without mortgage I had only just started the process of sorting out life insurance. ******* irresponsible I know, I should have sorted it when the eldest was born, but at 32 years old you don't really think like that do you.

I'm 41 and only just sorted mine out.

Anyone eat this way, when I say diet I don't mean short term i mean eating this way permanently if possible. 70% of your diet will be from fat (Butter, eggs, meat, oils, milk...) and the rest protein with a few low carb veggies. The dogma that eating saturated fat makes you fat or caused heart disease is being questioned and studies show there is no link and the opposite might be true. Given your brain and nerves are made form mostly fat, and insulin regulates fat cells it seems like the proper way to eat for the human body.

I've been on the "Paleo" diet combined with intermittent fasting 6 days a week for the past month and a half and never felt better.
Energy levels are much more consistent through out the day even with a heavy morning workout and not eating till 1pm
No mood swings if I miss breakfast
and I'm losing body fat.

Basically I've cut all processed food and dairy and carbs out of my diet. Only dairy is a splash of milk in coffee and I've waved goodbye to potatoes, bread, pasta, rice, cous cous, etc...

As expat says, modern observation would say no. For all of the crap said about native American Indians using every single bit of the buffalo and wasting nothing, the reality is that they killed hundreds at a time, took the bits they wanted and left the rest to rot.

Wasn't it the white buffalo hunters who did that? They wiped out the buffalo whereas the native americans had lived with the herds for millenia.

No. That was the propaganda. Yes, white hunters killed tuliploads of them, generally by shooting them.

Native Americans only started killing bison individually once horses were brought to America. Before that they'd drive herds off cliffs, or else into canyons and slaughter the lot of them, as it was easier to kill a herd in one go than run around after them on foot.

I am sure it would provide enough energy to someone like yourself who spends way too much time reading and believing tulipe on the internet.

Go for it Russell.

And probably the only reason you're losing the weight is that you're eating less calories... potato, bread and pasta are all very high in calories and fasting speaks for itself.
