what is teh Matol Diet consist of? where didja get it?is it just a meal plan?

[/ QUOTE ]

Heya, Matol Diet is amazing simple and convenient.

Before I started the diet I usually didn't have time in the morning to make a decent breakfast, and then in between classes I usually have to opt for fast food, and for supper I like to relax with a piece of pizza and beer or something because I was energy drained. Kind of a vicious cycle.

This diet is simple. You buy the food, which is quite expensive. Each packet consists of 20g of protein and little to almost no carbs, with your 9 essential amino acids.

In phase 1 (there are 4 phases) you set a weight loss goal and you do phase 1 for 80% of that loss goal.

Breakfast - 1 Protein packet + tea/coffee

Lunch - 1 protein packet + 2 cups of select veggies (brocoli, string beans, NO carrots or corn etc too high in natural sugars)

Supper - 7oz chicken/turkey OR 5oz lean meat (steak, beef, pork etc) + 2 cups of veggies + unlimited salad

Night time snack - 1 more packet

Plus each day you need to take your Matol drink twice daily (which tases aweful but they tell me its good for me), calcium drink twice daily, and your pills: Essential Fatty Acids, and Vitamens.

The protein packs are freaking good. I thought it would be like those shakes. But nah they have chili, cake, puddings, oatmeal, pancakes, bars, shakes, etc, and they are all the same nutritionally (minor diffs) and take less than a couple of minutes to make.

You can buy it from distributors, this diet cant be foudn in stores etc, PM me if you want info on who to contact, it gets shipped right to your house. (BTW it is not me that you contact so I am not advertising this lol).

Yeah keto works but you will lose muscle on it no matter how much protein you eat.

Nice brag. Unfortunately, if you did zero exercise, you still probably lost some muscle, albeit less than you would have with a lower protein diet.

Agreed. I probably did lose muscle, but nothing a month or 2 of the gym won't restore when I lose 20 more pounds.

This sounds like the Atkins diet. I did an extreme version of this in high school and my stomach is still messed up from it 6 years later. That's the thing that I def know it caused, but for all I know my kidney and liver are totally [censored] up from overworking them that hard.

I really really don't suggest using this as a way of losing weight. You're basically just forcing your body to work really hard to get [censored] from your mouth to your ass and starving it at the same time. Go for a [censored] run every day if you wanna lose weight.

I don't really know exactly what atkins diet consists of (never really cared to look in to it), can you expand on what they tell you to eat? Are there any supplements? Whats the meal plan like? Thx.

Yep and thats why I wasn't going to go on it at first. I decided that it's a 1 time expense to turn myself into what I wanted to be physically. I guess I could have ate better and ran every day for 6 months for the same results but I'm lazy.
