Highly recommended, although I think the "keto" diet is a bit of a misnomer, it doesnt have to do with eating specific foods per say, but allowing your body enough time to digest and use up energy consumed from foods and waiting 17 hours or so to eat so your body goes into ketosis. Althoguh this time may change from what you consume it isn't WHAT you are eating that makes a keto diet keto, but the fact your body goes into ketosis to use the naturally stored glucose in your liver and muslces!

A beginners Guide to the Keto Diet
I admit, I am still fairly new to the diet, but I have never heard what you are saying. Plus, I have been a 2 meal a day person for most of my life. 1 meal between noon and 2, then one between 6 and 8 pm. I was miserable 95% of the time due to cravings. It never helped my blood sugar or my weight.
Could it be it is another of those things where it is true for some people and not for others? That is possible and could be why I have never heard about.
Now I did read about a diet called Intermittent Fasting which basically said the whole diet was simply making sure you ate everything you were going to eat in an 8 hour window and fast the rest of the 24 hour period. They gave no guidance as to what you could eat, and it said nothing about controlling cravings so I didn't dig deeper into it.
I have a hard time believing if someone chose to eat nothing but cakes and pies 8 hours a day and nothing else for 16 hours, they would lose weight. There would be enough glucose in their blood stream the body wouldn't switch over to Ketosis because it would have all that glucose ready and waiting. I would think there would have to be some sort of regulation of calorie intake involved.

people have lost weight eating macdonalds everyday. Intermittent fasting is actually eating in a 4hr window period and not eating for at least 17 hours.
cravings go away, your body will adjust after two weeks or so. Your leptins(sp?) are what trigger hunger. Eventually your brain becomes satisfied with smaller meals, if you desire.
sugars and fats dont stay around long tjhey are the first to get burnt up. All the bodybuilders I know only eat in a 4hr window period, BUT they do say you HAVE to cheat once a week, or maybe more, in order to sustain your diet. If you dont reward yourself it makes it that much harder to stick to a stricter diet plan/
So you eat a few more sweets or some extra stuff, do some more exercise the next day and eat less and a little more healthy it will balance out.

I appreciate that you took the effort to come up with videos for the diet you are promoting, but it is NOT the diet I am using. It is something different. I am happy with Keto and see no reason to dig deeper into this other diet to try to compare the two. If it is what you want to use, go for it if you like, that is a decision you have to make for yourself.

Well just make sure your body is entering ketosis, or you are not actually doing a Keto diet and getting the results and benefits from such. :)
