  • At least with the people i’ve helped do keto, I find doing a initial over feeding of whole keto food is very beneficial in fighting the initial cravings and adaptation phase.

    Huh, interesting. I’ve generally heard the recommendation of fasting beforehand instead.

    Personally, I suspect the quickest way to switch is to do intense exercise between the last non-keto meal and the first keto meal. It’d burn through a lot of the glucose glycogen stored in the liver and muscles, forcing the liver to release ketones immediately instead of waiting a day for them to deplete normally. Though you’d probably get the shakes from hypoglycemia in the meantime.

    For me, I’ve just switched to keto foods and let the switch happen on it’s own over the course of a few hours. No need to rush it. Thankfully I have a harder time going off of keto than getting on



  • Kinda. Not drinking stops the problem from getting worse, keto will help fix it.

    Also, you would need to do full keto to get the bonus. Otherwise you won’t be going into ketosis. Only having a low-carb diet wouldn’t be significantly different from basic calorie restriction.

    Also, you still need to exercise and restrict calories to lose weight on keto. For weight loss, it mainly makes the process easier; if you eat more than you burn you still won’t lose weight. I like it, it’s a useful tool, but it’s not magic.

    Some extra bits of advice in case you try keto:

    • Take elecrolyte supplements, especially magnesium to avoid the “keto-flu”. There aren’t many people who can get away with not taking any
    • You’ll likely lose 10-12lb in the first week or two. That’s mainly water weight that you’ll gain back after going off the diet. The typical sustained weight loss is 2lb per week.
    • Eat a balanced diet of real food. As in, eat a mix of unprocessed meat and vegetables. Don’t just eat nonstop jerky and “keto certified” cookies and ice cream. Make your own food from scratch as much as you realistically can.


  • My favorite example I’ve seen recently is from Yakitate!! Japan when they were making a Fist of the North Star Reference and the localizers changed “You are already germinated brown rice yeast” to “You are already bread”.

    I love how the English localized version doubles as a reference


  • And I didn’t know about keto burning belly fat better

    FWIW, it’s most prominent on fat that’s already specifically in the liver, since the liver is the organ that converts fats into ketones. And it’s specifically visceral fat. Subcutaneous fat on the belly should be burned at the same rate as subcutaneous fat located anywhere else

    it has some pedo vibes.

    Also to be fair, that’s just the MC starting off as a POS. And unlike Seven Deadly Sins, it’s actually depicted as him being a creep. Once he’s more than a few years old he starts getting his ass kicked, and he eventually grows out of it
