Dave Palumbo Diet

[walruszord]

Hi guys, I started this diet 3 days ago and it's going pretty well.

Couple of questions...
To those know, is it worth buying Dave's video about diet on his site?
A lot of the information about this diet seems to come from about 2008, have there been any recent major tweaks? Following the thread on bb.com it seems the parameters of the cheat meal kept changing.
Thanks

Cheat meal should be high carb ie pancakes, pasta etc. if you follow the diet and do cardo on a slow increasing scale you will drop tonnes of fat. Its all about consistency and not letting the body adapt.

Thanks praetorian, diet is working great so far, lost 3lbs the first week (already carb depleted from a different keto diet when I weighed myself). End of second week and I'm doing my carb meal tonight so I'll keep your advice in mind.

MEAL #1
4 whole eggs (make sure to buy OMEGA-3 EGGS from the supermarket. They contain virtually NO saturated fat and tons of good OMEGA-3 fats); add another 4 egg whites to this (they don?t need to be the Omega-3 ones; you can use liquid egg whites)

SHAKE: 45g Whey Protein with 1 level tablespoon of All Natural Peanut butter (no sugar)

MEAL #3
"Lean Protein Meal": 7oz chicken with 1/3-cup cashew nuts (almonds, or walnuts)

MEAL #4

Hey guys! Since I'm allergic to PB & nuts, I was looking into the nutritional profile of avocados and they seems to fit very well into the keto diet as replacement for nuts/PB.

Value per 50 g for an avocado :

Protein g 1.00
Total Fat g 7.33
Carbs g 4.27 (total including fibers)
Fibers g 3.35


Value for 15ml of PB :

Protein g 3.73
Total Fat g 7.81
Carbs g 3.38 (total including fibers)
Fiber g 1.3

Sounds like a viable replacement ?

Definitely...just measure and dont go overboard.

Is it just me or I find it weird that the meal #6 in the DP diet, we have an option of either a shake + PB or 4 eggs+whites ?

I mean the PB is about 8G of fat and the eggs 24G... 3x the fat.

Dave's diet is actually 1.4 Tbsp vs 4 egg yolks (whites have no fat) so so that about 15g vs 20g...closer. I prefer the shake before bed because I like to add fiber.

Hey guys, what do you think about doing activities like skiing while doing the Keto diet ? Since BPM are not very high and it's not too demanding physically, I'm guessing ketones are used and no neoglucogenesis is made...
