Unnecessarily

I’ll summarize my thoughts and add to it a little bit. •I can’t support a diet that places limits and restrictions on eating certain fruits and vegetables. You should be able to eat (especially vegetables) as much as you want! I truly believe fruits and vegetables are the answer to a healthy diet and lifestyle. •Every few years we see this diet resurface basically just with a new name. Atkins, South Beach, and now Keto. And every single one had tons of people who sweared by it yet they lost popularity 🤔It’s a trend and trends die. I believe the reason why these diets slowly lose steam and become an old trend is because they become tough for people to follow (for many reasons) and so they fall off. And then what inevitably happens is they gain all the weight back and maybe even then some. LCHF diets seem so perfect because carbs have become so vilified that people think the only answer to weight loss is to get rid of carbs. Plus I think eating fatty foods like bacon, steak and cheese seems more appealing than being told to eat broccoli. •Another problem I’ve recently been having is how diluted the internet even makes the diet. People just start making anything into keto friendly because it’s high in fat and protein regardless of the other nutritional aspects. What the diet is actually supposed to be vs what the internet has turned it into are very different. •A well balanced diet can be just as effective!!! I think people like diets because it gives them a clear focus and guide to follow. But eating whole foods , and like I said fruits and vegetables, will make you feel amazing and can still lead to just as much weight loss. It’s about caloric restricting. Even in the keto diet, restricting calories is important because if you ate a ton of keto food you would gain weight. I think the media makes it seem like it’s magical, and you can eat whatever keto food you want and your just going to shed pounds. In my opinion adopting a healthy balanced diet, which includes fats too, is more effective because it can be easily sustained over a lifetime. It’s about creating balance in your life and diet. Enjoying healthy food (maybe even exercise too) and making that your go to, while also enjoy a treat every now and then. Overly restricting or depriving yourself of things you love and enjoy can be a set up for failure. •I’ll start with I am not vegan but I am almost completely plant based and a huge reason for that is environmental factors. The meat/animal industry places a HUGE strain on the environment and I like to do my best to reduce that. If everyone on this planet became keto we would F this world up soooo fast! Most any vegan can tell you all about why eating a ton of meat is bad not only for the planet but for your health too!
