      U don't need to enter ketosis, it doesn't work any better than a standard calorie defecit diet.

      Thanks for all the comments so far, although no-one seems to agree on anything lol. To give some more detail, I weigh about 70kg most calculators put my maintenance calories at around 2600 so I'm currently having 1700 whilst cutting. The reason I say about fat putting me over is because 100g of cheese (fat) would give me 360 calories which is hard to fit into 1700. Or I could have like 250g of chicken instead which would be much more satisfying!

      i disagree with this for some it does i have seen it myself when i have had people come to me after working with others, after working with many many people i can certainly see how the "One size fits all" statement cannot be used for losing weight (or gaining it for that matter)

      Because it will be even less satisfying?

      There's no scientific evidence ketosis produces more fat loss though Paul. It's just a case of using whatever diet suits the individual the most.
