Hi guys. This question is about implementing pro/veg days from the beginning of the diet to achieve maximum fat loss per week. Basically I have about 7 weeks to cut for a fotoshoot, and I have approx 17 lbs of fat or so to lose. I am an advanced DP keto dieter with experience etc. I can lose about 2lbs per week if I do the diet normally (without pro/veg days, with weekly cheat meal), but I need to speed things up this time.
I emailed dave and he said 2-4 lbs/wk is possible, with 2+ hrs of cardio a day, but his answer re: pro veg days/cheat meal was unclear. What do you think I should do -- add 2 pro/veg days from week 1 and KEEP cheat meal, OR add 2 p/v days and REMOVE cheat meal?
THANKS!!!

Thanks BC123JM
Just to confirm, here's my pro/veg day diet:
Pro/Veg:
1 -- 50g WPI
2 -- 7 oz chicken breast + asparagus
3 -- 7 oz chicken breast + asparagus
4 -- 50g WPI + 1 tbsp triple strength fishoil (post workout)
5 -- 7 oz chicken breast + asparagus
6 -- 50g WPI
How many should I start out with, 2 pro/veg in a row, 5 pro/fat? And keep cheat meal for sure?

I think common practice is to get into ketosis then switch on and off protein/veg days. If you're not running on fat right now and you just cut carbs and fats that's just slashing calories. Metabolism will probably take a nose dive. And remember, whey protein readily converts to glucose unless taken with a source of fats. I'd replace the shake with chicken/fish/steak.

I'm planning on to start a keto diet. I'm 215lb bf% 18-20 possibly, 34yr. I've been reading alot and I wanted to know how cardio is done with this type of diet. I heard conflicting answers. Doing high intensity or low intensity, I'm confused. Can someone p/s clarify this. Thanks.

I started running keto 3 weeks ago, lost about 10 pounds. I like to do cardio at 140-150 bpm and was wondering if this will burn muscle (I'm on test atm). I just feel its more beneficial for the cardiovascular system. If its burning muscle though Ill switch it out to lower intensity

Hey! So I've been reading this thread quite a bit, so to introduce myself I'm a female for starters, 27 5"3 160 lbs bf is high following saves keto diet to the tee. Ok so questions is oxyelite pro a nono? I'm using humapro for my protien shakes and senna tea leaves with fiber at night to keep digestion up. This is my second day and I've got the headaches and feel foggy, lol. Anyway down 2 lbs (water?) glad this is up, I need to drop the fat! I have dreams of competing one day so any suggestion or advice would be appreciated especially concerning the cheat meal and omega 3 supp, since that is all being suggested for men

OxyElite Pro is loaded to the brim with stims. There are many products like it on the market. It may help keep your appetite down (which keto does anyway) and give you a little extra energy for your workouts but don't expect any miracles to come from it. Ephedrine is a better choice if you're going to go the stimulant route. Rapid water loss is common when on a low carb diet. Have your first cheat meal after 2 weeks on the diet. That's cheat MEAL not cheat DAY! You can eat whatever you've been craving during the week. I take 10g of omega-3 fish oil a day. Hope this helps.
