Zero Carb Keto: More Calories, Higher Protein, Lower Bodyfat

Zero Carb Keto

More Calories, Higher Protein, Lower Bodyfat

Since I went plastic-free in February, I have started eating a higher protein, lower fat ratio. This is due to the fact that the canned beef I use now is leaner than the lamb and fatty beef cuts that I was eating previously.

Previously, I was following a much more ketogenic ratio of around 70% fat calories to 30% protein calories. Now I am actually more around 50% / 50%.

I have increased my calories. I am now at 17% calorie restriction rather than 20%, which I had been doing for about two years prior. I am hungrier now because I am eating lower fat! 

However, my weight has actually gone down a few pounds as well as my bodyfat, despite eating more calories! So that is an interesting phenomenon.

In regards to the zero vitamin C that my blood test measured, I am going to try eating either freshly cooked liver or steamed mussels once a day or at least every other day. Then in a month maybe I can retest and see if it has improved any! It should.

I am hoping at some point I can find a way to get freshly cooked grassfed beef again that does not come in plastic. But it does not seem promising!
