I was doing some reading around and it blows my mind that the suggested daily protein intake for males is only 56g of protein (obviously this is taking in someone who doesn't do training) but that still felt really low reading that study.
I started the keto diet to see how it would work, and my intake of sugar is 20g per day. high fat, no carb is basically the diet. I've made a lot of good tasty meals and have finally dropped some of my winter weight I think. But man I still get occasional sugar cravings and since Ive been doing it for over 5 weeks I just feel guilty if I want a carb or sugar now. I have no idea if this diet is good for like, gaining muscle and whatnot, but as far as losing weight its probably the best diet I have ever tried. I have noticed I have gotten more winded than usual when I go running though and get sore easily too, I tried electrolyte powder and it actually helped a fair bit.
I mean it makes sense, cut out sugar and you're going to most likely lose weight.
