TBH as a guy that likes big chubs, I liked the before pics. But still, congrats on the weight loss!
shavedmonkey74
What were your weekly weight losses like before you introduced crossfit?
catmn
They were pretty steadily around 2-3 lbs per month. I also think I'm a good user of ketones though so hard to say. Everyone's different ☺
ChristyZ
That is really amazing! Great job. I started Keto in January and down 18 lbs. also taking exogenous ketones in the form of a drink.
catmn
That's so awesome!!!! I'm proud of you!!!
Emmyexley69

catmn
Thank you!
SuperPatchyBeard
Looks like your skin has rebounded well so far and the remainder should tighten up again too. Hit the weights to keep it going! Lookin good!
catmn

PewPin
Can you tell me how you prepared for the body you had at the start? I need to take your journey in the opposite direction.
catmn
As in the before photo?
PewPin
Yea haha, i gotta gain weight sadly
partyboobytrap
Good job, OP. Now, time to get rid of those fat shorts in the second pic!
catmn
Ya they're gone. Hahah. For some reason you like to hold on the things just in case right? Haha
catmn

slykip
Did you work out on top of it? I did keto, had great results but got major headaches from not enough carb intake
catmn
I did yes, the first little bit I started with some weight training and took it easy until my body ran efficiently on keto then upped it
Tildisp
Good job keep it up
catmn
Thank you!
secretoaster
They say coconut oil helps with stretch marks
catmn
Ya I basically use that shit for everything haha. In my drinks and on my body haha
abriggroch
Before weight loss I'd be scared to fight you in a cage match, now not so scared
bekreider
I can't do the keto diet, I had a personal trainer who insisted on it once and I just felt sick all. the. time.
bekreider
Especially when it was 'carb day' and I'd 'binge' on carbs and have a super big work out the following morning. My body was so unhappy.
catmn
And honestly it's not going to work for everyone ☺
catmn
Ya I don't blame you if you had to have a big carb day. Makes it super hard to run efficiently when you keep switching fuel sources
Thereisnosafeword
My fiance and I just started Keto about a week ago. So far my energy levels are through the roof. Shit like this makes me excited.
catmn
I'm so pumped for you guys!!! Congrats! It's the best lifestyle I've come across yet

theoriginaldickbutt
So is keto very much like paleo?
Thereisnosafeword
Keto is not much at all like paleo. A lot of "paleo" foods are good for keto. But my go-to snacks are cheese, nuts and bacon.
Thereisnosafeword
Keto is a minimal sugar, low carb, high fat diet. It trains your body to start using fat for fuel instead of carbs/sugars.
Thereisnosafeword
Since your body stores a ton of fat from things like sugar and carbs, your body has a TON of fat to consume and burn.
legolasmyeggolas
It's basically a very low-carb paleo/primal type diet.
Thereisnosafeword
Not even remotely close.
legolasmyeggolas
That's my experience. What's yours?
Thereisnosafeword
So while "not even remotely close" was clearly hyperbole, there's pretty big differences.
Thereisnosafeword
Tons of diary. Also legumes. Anything with a respectable ratio of carb:fiber. Also shit loads of pork rinds. The goal is <20 net carbs/day.
lanadelgay
Lookin good
Scarecrow85
Congrats, you look great now. I'm jealous of you, I don't think I can keep that up for long, but it's worth the try.
catmn
Don't think of it over the course of years, think day by day. One day at a time ☺
Scarecrow85
You're absolutely right. I'll show myself I can do it. Cheers.
KhornateKhommander
Good job defatting there mon frere.
catmn
Thanks so much!!!
KhornateKhommander
Keep it up. Lean out. Make gains.
catmn
Totally! I want to lose another 20 lbs, then start adding some muscle
KhornateKhommander
Fuck yeah. I'm in the same boat. Striving towards that glorious bulk.
catmn
Haha a lot harder to lean gain then I thought it was. Pumped to see results tho
Jgoodz

catmn
Thank you so much!! I started doing Nutritional Ketosis. Only thing that's ever worked for me
HeadlessNorseman
Is that different from typical or cyclical ketosis? (TKD, CKD)
AmericanSighCo
Where did you start looking for meal plans and stuff? I'd love to know some day-to-day meals
catmn
www.reddit.com/r/keto for almost everything I've learnt. Hope this helps ☺
NeroApollo
How do you up you're intake of fat without gaining weight?
MissBossyPants
Good fats are not the enemy. Refined sugar and carbs are
NeverKnowWhatToPutInTheseThings
I'll have to give it a shot. I also started at 320. Wanting to lose 100+
catmn
I would definitely recommend it. Worked wonders for me
amalgarhythm
Coworker of mine did that and in 5 months dropped 66lbs. Gonna start the same program reel soon
catmn
Nice! Happy for you! It's a lot of fun and has a lot of great options for food!
kllrnikki
Did you have particular recipes you liked? I started two weeks ago and I'm running out of ideas on what to eat.

Damn proud of you
catmn
Thank you so much!
sadquesadilla
Would you recommend it to other people? I'm looking for ways to lose some weight after I have my baby
catmn
It's the only thing in good conscious I could recommend. Only because it's the only thing that's worked for me
catmn
That being said, it doesn't work for everyone. But if you feel food, and enjoy the food, that's all that matters ☺
sadquesadilla
Thank you, I'll definitely give it a try! You look great btw! C:
catmn
Thank you so much!

Yes. Cash for fat.
bekreider
think of the akins diet in a tl;dr sort of way. Very low carbs and sugar, higher in fat and protein and veggies.
racecarbedx
I couldn't do it because of the fats. I'll stick to low carbs, no sugar, and just eating vegetables and health meats lol
earlywormy
High fat is part of the diet, gl without
ThorinMapleshield
Not sure why you got downvoted for saying you couldn't do the high fat part of the diet
Nize426
Isn't that what he just said?
