Some may say it's not safe, but The Cambidge Diet is a great way to lose Weight & Fat very quickly whilst protecting valuable muscle tissue. You will gain the weight back though unless you are VERY careful.

H. Did you do the slimfast plan?

I fail to see how you can lose fat very quickly whilst protecting muscle tissue. The only way to lose weight very quickly would likely be from seriously dropping calories.....which would result in a severe drop of carbohydrate. The weight loss is likely to be glycogen and water - hence the big drop in bodyweight after only a few days on the diet.

Muscle would obviously be spared due to the lack of carbohydrate.

Unless anybody can enlighten me, i fail to see how these sort of diets preserve muscle tissue. Anyone?

all I remember learning is you lose water, muscle then fat.

Ketosis is another name for the "fat burning" process. When you start a VLCD (very low calorie diet), during the first one or two days your body uses glucose (a simple sugar stored by the body as the complex carbohydrate glycogen), for its main energy requirements. Once the body has used up its stored carbohydrate, it then switches to its other energy source - unwanted fat. A ketogenic diet is very low in carbohydrate.
The body's stored fat is broken down into little fatty acid molecules called ketones and these circulate taking energy to all the tissues in the body. The Cambridge Diet has been carefully researched and formulated so that when used diets such as Cambridge Diet and Lighter Life, it has just enough carbohydrate for immediate energy and none left over for storage and induces a mild ketosis. The smallest intake of additional carbohydrate can upset this fragile balance and cause carbohydrate to be stored along with water, causing a plateau.
The mild ketosis is an intrinsic part of the design of the a VLCD because it has significant benefits - it is the key to the comfort for the dieter:

• It reduces the feeling of hunger - removing the temptation to err!
• It induces a sense of well-being with good energy levels
  Far from being harmful, ketosis is an important safety factor - the body gets all the energy it needs from the breakdown of its fats stores, thus protecting muscle tissue and vital organs
• Ketones are the products produced by your body when it burns fat. Your body excretes these ketones in the urine and when you breathe out.

Word up, about time someone gives a normal response.

Thanks Ono.

If you guys haven't noticed, i havent been on the forum that much for 3-4months, i've been cutting down for boxing, and i only started training last week. I cut down from 97kg, now im 83.5-84, and maintained alot of my muscle, my bodyfat currently is at 12%, which im pretty happy as i have no gut anymore. I trained as a bodybuilder rather than a boxer, but the whole principle to dieting is the same, your calories are the only variable as training is different.

Put it this way, if you're a boxer you will end up requiring more calories, because u burn more with running, jogging, skipping, boxing, sparring, so on and so forth.

You can still lose weight with boxing, but you're going to break down more muscle because the training you are doing is a mixture of various exercises that require different primary sources of fuel, i.e. jogging=glycogen from food you just ate in your pre workout meal.

While High intensity interval training (sprint/walk/sprint/walk) uses fat and some glycogen from your pre workout meal, and very little muscle.

Losing muscle is inevitable while dieting to lose weight, you're going to lose it either way, because you are on a calorie deficit diet and you have low insulin levels, therefore its extremely hard to stay anabolic at all times.

AHAHAHAH, bro, ketosis is for obese people, and it should only be used in short term, it also enlarges the glands near your throat if you're on it too long. Ketosis isnt for atheletes, a caloric deficit diet is ideal for losing weight and maintaining muscle.

You can eat pretty much a variety of things if you count it into your macronutrient ratio on a caloric deficit diet. Your diet would roughly look like this: protein each meal, around 8-10g of fats each meal, very little carbohydrates in the morning, a proper amount of carbohydrates pre workout and post workout, 6-7 meals (including shake).

^^
Thats what a normal caloric deficit diet looks like, so you basically have first hand experience from me, ive just come off it, its not some fucked up diet from hollywood, its not even a 'diet', its just science, reducing your carbs and fats, but keeping them at a level where you're just on boarder line.

If you're a male never have your calories below 2000.

ok thats enough from me, once again, thanks for the post Ono, good to see we have some educated people on the forum

The best diet to lose weight is to consume the foods you like. In addition, exercise, which is crucial to long-lasting weight loss. With determination, everybody can lose weight in a healthy way.

While taking a good planning in your daily meal plan,that would make you strong and healthy.And also you should take care about your diet and calories you take in your diet that would be the important for you.

1.The best diet to lose weight is includes foods that have a high nutrition value. This food generally provides a balance of vitamins, proteins, fats, minerals, carbohydrates and fiber. The most important facts of all, drink more water and less soft drink.

2. Eat more portion of the good foods. Go for fresh vegetables instead of crisps. Add edible growth of plants to your cereal at morning meal. Use the salad counter when you go out for midday meals or to the food market store, and load up on juice rather than usual instant coffee, tea or fizzy drink.
