Hi Tedthered, take a look at this site, http://www.flexibleketogenic.com, I picked it up from a member of the 'LCHF Ketogenic Way of Living' group (if you think you'd like to follow this lifestyle, then why not join this group?)

Basically you decide how low your carbs should be, I believe at under 20% your body goes ketogenic (it lights up the furnace). The website has a calculator to decide whether to go mild, strong, or stronger ketogenic. You just need to add your carb, fat, and protein grams.

The site also has a great explanation.

I love this way of eating, plus I feel really good on it! X

Hi and welcome.

Try googling for 'food macros' - here's a suggested site. http://ontheregimen.com/2013/10/15/how-to-count-your-macros-a-comprehensive-guide/


I'm on low carb diet, so I'm trying to keep my carbs well under 20%, also too high a protein count can stop weight loss, so I'm also trying to get my fat count up.

Other of course might aim for different macro stats.
