Dave Palumbo Keto Diet Questions - Ask them here!

Right 30g a day.  That should be easier to work out!
 
Diet coke?  I've looked at the can & it says 0g of carbs & 0g of sugars... althou the artificial sweeteners may have some impact? Or not?
 
Also, 1 more thing, my Mrs absolutely loves haribo sweets... dieting lately has been torture for her, not being able to have a cheat day or sweets or anything, which is probably wrong in itself anyway, but I've been quite strict with her, on the cheat day/meal, would a 160g packet be a problem?
Haribo Starmix
Serving Size: 100 Calories: 344 Total Fat: .2g Carbs: 79g Protein: 6.6g
 
Thanks Papa, really appreciate it.

Diet coke is fine... try to get into keto first before using them however.
 
Haribo as a desert on cheat day would be fine.

She may well turn up in Bristol to give you a kiss there fella!
 
Thanks mate!

Could i alter the diet as below and still expect Fat loss while still being able to weight train with some gains?
 
Was thinking something like this for diet:
Meal #1 - 6 - 6:30am: 5 whole eggs. 
 
Train at 7:15am 
 
Meal #2 10:30am : whey protein isolate with tablespoon natural peanut butter.

Meal #3 12:30pm: fish/steak/chicken some almonds or pumpkin seeds, maybe a half bag of micro palou rice or cous cous.

Meal #4 3:30pm: whey protein isolate withtablespoon natural peanut butter.

Meal #5 6pm: fish/steak/chicken breast with some almonds or pumpkin seeds again, then the other half of the rice or cous cous.

Meal #6 9:30pm: 4 or 5 egg whites or else an other chicken fillet before bed.

Hi - this is for Dave Palumbo's keto dieting.  I can't help with generally dieting as otherwise I'll get a deluge of people asking for dieting advice for free LOL

I've been looking at the costs of Omega 3 eggs (in Asda) & they're about £1.62 for a pack of 6...
 
Due to the vast amount of eggs I will be eating on this diet, I'd rather buy a big pallet from Makro (wholesalers) for £2 (30 eggs), but these are not the Omega 3 enriched eggs.
 
Would it then be ok to take either one of these tablets to supplement for the Omega 3 loss with in the eggs?

So I could have the eggs I buy from Makro and get the necessary amount of Omega 3 from the tablets.
 
Thanks

Just get normal eggs and supplement with 3-6g of Omega 3's per day (as you can afford).

See how you get on with 2g and increase if you feel a little backed up.  Always take with water as it can cause problems in the digestive tract if not drank with enough liquid.

cheers papa! :O)
i always drink plenty of water  (approx 5 litres) so that shall not be a problem.
thanks once again!

Good luck

Have you been drinking any milk?  Adding anything into it?

No nothing

hi pappa :O)
question ref almonds -
i have read earlier on in this thread that almonds are to be blanched and with no skin on as they have different macros?
is this true?
i also have weird almost like a salty taste in my mouth, is this normal on this diet?

Hi Papa
 
Thanks for this diet i am planning to start it on Monday coming i have a few questions before i start which hopefully you can help me with.
 
I am using Matrix Anabolic Protein http://www.matrix-nutrition.co.uk/Product.aspx?5KG_Matrix_Anabolic_Protein&Code=MA11 will this be ok for the diet, also will mixing the protein with milk make any difference to the diet or would water be best?
 
i have decided to just use norm eggs and take omega 3 supps i have two tubs of max strength omega 3,6&9 as far as i can work out seems to be 1200mg each can i use these or would just the normal omega 3's be best? 
 
Thanks

The protein is fine as long as you stay under 30g carbs a day overall.
 
No milk in this diet (as it contains lots of carbs).
 
I prefer normal Omega 3's with a decent amount of the essential fats in them.

Thanks for the advice Papa

No worries

Hi just a quick question re cardio.
I'm gonna run the diet for a month prior to going on holiday. I not that cardio is to be low intensity to target fat loss and minimise muscle loss.
I'm not a competitor i just train 3 days a week. I do however cycle to work every other day. this is 20 miles of fairly high intensity. I've gone low carb before but with a high fat intake so never suffered a lack of energy.
is it ok to do high intensity cardio?
cheers
