what am i supposed to eat if i cant eat these on my diet?

hmm.... this seems to be really tricky if you ARE really thinking of avoiding everything on this list. If you eat eggs maybe you could have those sometimes, but I don't think you want to eat them for every meal.

I personally feel that leaving out everything on this list is not a great thing to do. Instead choose a diet that is high in vegetables: peas, leafy vegs, cauliflower, carrots, bell peppers etc. Basically all vegetables are good. Also I don't think it's correct that fruits are bad for you. Just restrict your fruit intake to 1-2 servings a day and avoid fruits that are too high in sugar, like mangoes and grapes. Avoid fruit juices. You could have whole grains as well. They are very filling and keep you full for a long time without adding too many calories. Just keep a tab on how much to eat. You could eat oats instead of wheat. They are higher in protein and keep you full longer. Also, beans, lentils and chickpeas are great foods. So no need to avoid them completely. Mushrooms are also a good source of protein. Plain yogurt is also very good (the one with low fat). You can also have nuts in moderation. Lastly, exercise everyday and drink lots of water.

Do stay away from processed foods, candies, fried foods etc, since they are mostly empty calories and definitely bad for you.

Probably this wasn't the answer you were looking for, but I would like to stress that it's more important to keep yourself fit rather than losing weight by crash dieting and depriving your body of essential nutrients. Once you start following a healthy lifestyle you'll start losing weight too, although more slowly. But you won't harm your body that way.

Best Wishes!

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular “fad” diets out there. Go here https://tr.im/H9e5h

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it’s just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it’s a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

What are you trying to accomplish with this diet? So far the only thing I see is anxiety from trying to figure out how to follow it. If weight loss is your goal you need to eat a sensible diet and exercise enough to burn more calories than you eat. In very simple terms fruits, vegetables and whole grains are good. Refined sugar including corn syrup and white flour are not so good. Portion control is very important.

My favorite exercises for burning fat are resistance training which means lifting weights and any human powered transportation. Walking is a good start and doesn't require any special equipment. Others include running, bicycling, paddling or rowing a boat, swimming, cross country skiing and hiking. If you really want to be lean and fit try hiking the Appalachian trail. The trail goes through my town. I see dozens of hikers every summer and in the 20 years I have lived here i have only seen 2 overweight AT hikers.

I agree with LOLwut-

ketosis was the only way I was able to lose weight and get healthy after nearly two decades of trying.

It's a natural state of the body, and quite frankly, is common sense-

consume fat for fuel, and that's what your body will burn.

Also, the claim that it's "healthy" to eat "low GI" and "unrefined carbs" simply isn't true.

Those things are healthiER for you than more processed and high GI foods,

but there is still absolutely no nutritional reason to consume them.

A piece of "whole grain" bread spikes your blood sugar as much as a candy bar.

Glucose spikes are NO ONE'S FRIEND- not those trying to lose weight, not those with anxiety or inflammation problems or headaches and a host of other illnesses. There is a reason so many people are allergic to wheat, for instance- humans have not been consuming it very long.

That being said...OP, if all you're consuming is starches, beer, and dairy, it's a wonder you're not dead. O_o Eat some vegetables. Please. Right now.

She's trying to kill you. You cannot obtain the nutrients you need from this diet. Basically all it leaves you to eat is vegetables and eggs, since you're a vegetarian.

I would recommend that rather than this faddish mess, you try a diet of healthy unprocessed foods like beans, whole grains, nuts and seeds and whole fruits and vegetables, along with moderate amounts of mono- and polyunsaturated fats. Eggs in moderation are a good source of high quality protein. Small amounts of low fat dairy add flavor and variety.

Ketosis is an unnatural and unhealthy condition.

so much wrong with what you're trying to do. When your body goes into ketosis it means your body is under extreme stress and it's a state of severe sickness. No-one has lost weight and actually successfully kept it off from these low-carb diets. Diets high in complex carbohydrates (not refined sugars and wheats etc) and starches, low in protein and low in fats and oils are the most successful for weight loss and on top of that for good health.

First off, Phil is deluded. He/she is confusing ketosis, which is a healthy state for the human body and probably how humans existed for the vast majority of our existence, with KETOACIDOSIS, which primarily affects diabetics and is extremely dangerous. Ketosis simply means that your body switches from burning carbohydrates to fat for fuel. That's it. Equivocating between "low carb" (good) and "high protein" (bad) is fallacious. People who maintain ketosis, unlike Atkins dieters, are not obsessed with protein, which is in all foods- they try to consume primarily fats for their calories.

Secondly, low-carb diets continue to be the ONLY way many people can lose weight and keep it off, especially those who are overweight and insulin-resistant. I'm one of those people, having lost 100 lbs and kept it off for five years with a ketogenic diet, which I still follow. My mother has also seen her migraine headaches disappear on this diet, which makes sense, since it is recommended for people with seizures and neurological diseases.

OP,

Vegetables? Seeds? Nuts? Legumes?

None of these are on this list, and those are what you should be eating anyway.

There are thousands. O_o

You really eat nothing but crap all day?

You might want to learn the difference in a "starchy" food and a "resistant-starch" food.

BOTH low/no-fat and low/no-carbohydrate diets are very unhealthy, and quite stupid. The key is eating the right types of fats (unrefined/natural) and the right types of carbohydrates (whole foods, non-grains, mostly low-glycemic like veggies, nuts/seeds, etc.), in proper moderation/balance.

I can't believe the ignorance here about ketosis and carbohydrates.

No wonder the West is obese and diabetic!

u can eat pepe soup lol BUT seriously does this diet even exist
