Tom's Ketogenic Diet Thread

Tom, have you stopped eating?

 

[Tom]

I just cooked some stuff I had posted already but I made something new on Sunday, although it is very easy to do. I'll post it later.

1) Eat meat.
2) ???
3) Profit!

Then again, I really need to cook a bit more this month.

No, not at all. I've been lazy in July tho and only lost a measly bit of weight. In August, so far, I gained a bit due to my love for Starbucks Frappuccinos. Then again, back in full force until 2014.

Gaining weight from Frappuccinos ?

A single Starbucks Frappuccino (and the vast majority of their drinks suffers from the same problem) contains more sugar than 2 normal-sized chocolate bars - even before adding any sugar yourself.

Bah, it's not that bad

Who the heck adds sugar though !?

MARS bar (normal size) - 34.6g per 58g bar
Vanilla Frappuccino (Starbucks) - 72g per 0.473l cup (picked the 16oz one because it's the medium one, so "normal")

I noticed that in my post above I had linked to the strawberry one, which is indeed not as bad - yet, still ~1.8 times more sugar than there's in a single chocolate bar. The one I meant to link was the vanilla one, fixed that in this post.

I think what's most surprising is the fat to be honest....

 

[Tom]

There's not that much whipped cream in it - most of it is milk, I think. Then again, fat is good!

The ketogenic diet is super popular that a lot of people I know are trying it out. Fun fact, the keto diet used to be a rather successful treatment for epilepsy in the 1920's.
