    No Daves diet does not include flax seed or flax seed oil as it is not a great souce of Omega 3...it needs to be converted and that doesnt happen efficiently. Use a good fish oil instead.

    Yes I know it's not a good source of Omega-3, it's not the reason I take it, I take it for the fibers! Even you said you were adding them to your shake for that same reason. I don't know for you, but for me the estrogenic effect is a new info, I won't continue taking grounded flax seed anymore.

    So this is my dilemma. I was on the keto diet for about 6 weeks. The problem I had was that I work a very physical job and it was kicking my ass! So I added 1\2 cup of brown rice to two of my meals. I feel better. Did I just bone myself or is that an acceptable amount to still drop weight. Cheers.

    The part I forgot to ask, in regards to the almond's in the diet. Can you roast the almond's? Just trying to change it up. Cheers

    The nuts should be raw to get all the nutrients especially the fats. If you add carbs you are no loner in ketosis so the diet is no longer keto. This does not mean you wont keep dropping fat...what it does mean is that with your current work a keto diet is probably not ideal and you should have some carbs during work to get your through that part of the day. It doesnt have to be a tonne of carbs and with a bit you will continue to lose fat.

    Just use the same diet but add some carbs during work...measure the amounts so you can track it and make adjustments.

    Cheers Praetorian as always. I eat my last real food meal approximately 3 hours prior to bed. That meal consists of 8 to 10 oz of chicken, spinach and 1/2 cup of brown rice. I am curious if the carb timing is too close to bedtime or not. I had success on the full on keto diet if anyone is considering such a change. Cheers

    If you are dieting and looking for fat loss and keto is tough because of work then yes take in some carbs. But the timing of the carbs is important ie taking in carbs as fuel to be used so eating for what you are about to do. Why eat carbs and then go to bed you dont need carbs before bed you need them before you are exerting yourself at work. If you are trying to lose fat time the carbs to be used up during physical exertion and then the rest of the time use fat as fuel.

    The keto diet is very successful because it works with the body not against it. I have used it on myself and many hundreds of clients all with great success. However it is a tool in an arsenal of many to be used when it is optimal.

    Thanks for confirming what I thought. My thought process was to drop the weight and retain muscle...or even gain some.
    Cheers
