Been on the Ketogenic diet now for 8 months. The first 5-6 months were pretty brutal on training but over the past few weeks, I can feel it slowly coming back. I got my bloodwork done a week prior to starting keto as well as last week at the 8-month mark. Pretty interesting. My numbers were almost perfect before starting, cholesterol and other bio-markers as good as they have ever been. After 8-months of eating 125g of Protein (.535g per pound of bodyweight), >300g of fat, and less than 30g of carbs, my bloodwork came back almost as good. A few points difference in total cholesterol and triglycerides, but overall, really solid numbers. Talk about counter-intuitive. With the drop in protein, about 58% less than what I had been eating over the previous 5 years, I lost only 6 pounds. Absolutely wouldn't recommend for anyone who is serious about high-intensity training but for those that need to think clearly and not have their lives ran by when the next meal is coming, this is about as good as it gets. I can't tell you the last time I was hungry. Literally no cravings and the only reason I eat is because I know I should.
