Help with Ketogenic diet
I have recently started a Ketogenic diet after reading Keto-Clarity. I am a 57 year old man who is very sedentary in the winter since my job is strictly a summer time job. After an initial 20 pound loss I have gained back 7 pounds. I have been measuring my level of ketosis with the Ketonix device and have been in a high level of ketosis the entire time. My diet has varied between 70 to 90% fat, 5 to 25% protein, and no more than 5% carb. I have not closely monitored my calories other than to not let them get above 2500. Since I weigh 365 currently I should be losing once I get below 4380 calories a day. My question is if a person is completely sedentary can that adjust downward the amount of calories per pound of body weight you need each day to maintain your weight from 12 to something lower like 8 or 9?
