Been on a combined egg & Meat diet for about a week now and have had very good results (about 10lbs lost). My one problem is that I have been having some kind of heartburn. Anybody have this experience?

thx

so, what are you eating, I would like to try this and sure I can do it for a few days, however, I musy have 1 coffee with mega cream and slpenda, or I dont function, will this blow it for me.

I will like to try this too... what are you eating?

It started as an unofficial egg fast and morphed into an egg & meat fast. I basically focused on keeping my calories in the 1,200/day range and ate all of the eggs and meat that I could within that amount. I also tried to maximize fat (so I guess it was a combined Egg & Meat & Fat Fast) by cooking with a lot of olive oil (being careful to measure it and include it in my daily calories) and by sometimes throwing out the white and eating just the yoke.

The idea is to keep carbs as close to zero as possible, meaning that your only source of carbs is what is in the eggs. So you can use seasoning to liven things up.

I would reccomend using keto strips durring the fast if you don't do so already. This will let you track how deep into ketosis you are. Very deep, in my case. I would drink 200oz+ of water each day and the strips would stay dark purple.

While keeping calories to fewer than 1,200/day (do NOT go below 1,000) was a bit of a challenge at first. After a few days I was so full all the time that I practically had to force myself to eat.

I stopped the fast a few days ago having dropped about 11lbs overall and finally gotten into the 150lb range. I have only gained back a couple of pounds.

There are probably a lot of people who would warn against this type of regimen, but I think for a limited period of time it can be a great thing to do, even if you gain all of the weight back. I was totally stalled out a while back and did the Atkins fat fast for a few days. I dropped a bunch of weight very quickly. When I went off the fast I put all the weight back on, but it didn't matter b/c I had broken through a key weight loss level and that was a great help psychologicaly. I had broken a plateau and it was very easy for me to break back through that level when the time came.

Good luck.
