Can you lose two pounds of muscle in a day?
I'm on a low carb high fat diet

Depends. I have no idea how many calories the guy was eating and how much he exercised during the McDonalds deal. Could have been largely muscle, and I believe the doctor would emphasize that to discourage crash dieting. That doesn't mean it was all muscle (it wasn't, medically it can not be, you lose fat along with it).
>I trust a doctor's words more than that of a guy who thinks a high-fat diet will help them lose fat.
I haven't seen it lately but I'm guessing you misinterpreted what the doctor was saying, which is that because he was crash dieting, he lost a lot of muscle.

Curious if they did a before and after MRI. Though if you're crash dieting on McDick's salads it's pretty inferable that the guy lost a fair amount of muscle.

That's just not how the body works. If you're losing muscle you're losing fat as well. Generally you don't get into muscle loss until you're at a very low body fat percent (anorexics) or if you're eating an absurdly low number of calories and are sedentary. The body WANTS to use the fat first and preserve the muscle, muscle is a last resort. So no, that's not realistically possible within the bounds of thermodynamics.

A serving of vegetables and a handful of nuts every day and you're good. Been doing the keto shit for years.

Nuts and seeds are not a good source of potassium, providing only around 20% of the recommended intake per 1000 calories.

Intredasting, relatively low carb for the quantity of potassium.

>OP, why are you on a ketogenic diet?
Wanna see how it affects me mentally mainly, I don't need to lose much weight, maybe 5kg, so I'm eating close to maintenance.
I'm on day 4, I've already noticed the difference physically, when I work out I don't feel the lactic build up as fast I did before and I feel like I can go for quite a long time doing cardio, I don't feel like I can increase the weight I'm lifting though.
Mentally I do feel different, but it's subtle so far and not very beneficial as far as I can tell.
Also I'm getting pretty much all my carbs from spinach, broccoli and lettuce at the moment,
I'd like to increase the amount of carbs in a week or two to 50-80g so I can include more foods.
Nuts are expensive man.

I already do,
225mg magnesium and 300mg potassium.
I need about 5000mg.

What most keto people do is drink a cup of chicken broth. Its the same concept as gatorade to replace electrolytes
