Start out very low. You are trying to trigger ketosis, where your body shifts to using fat and protein for energy. I would shoot for around 25-50 grams per day, and spread it out, so your body shifts into a ketogenic state. The whole theory behind low carb is that when you body doesn’t have carbs to convert into glucose and glycogen for energy, it produced ketones, which convert fat stores into energy. Your body can also use dietary fat as an immediate energy source. The key here, is that you must take in fats. You can’t go low carb, low fat, or you will cause nutritional issues, and overwork your liver and kidneys trying to convert too much protein to glucose. The absolute maximum carbohydrates you can take in would be 200 grams approx. I would stay well under this, so as not to cause your body to hover around without going ketogenic. At first, you may have carb cravings. This will occur until your body fully switches into ketosis.
I personally don’t recommend the low carb approach unless you are targeting short term fat loss. Learning to eat a clean low saturated fat diet, with plenty of carbs, and counting calories, is ultimately and healthier, and better balanced, lifestyle.
Best of luck!

Okay. What I did was to stay at 20 carbs or less per day. I kinda was obsessive with it though. I did lose about 25 pounds in 2 months or so. The only reason I went on this diet was because my Doctor said I had elevated tryglicerides. I think I took the diet overboard…just be careful with it..you will gain the weight back-I did and then some. I think its very unhealthy….:) I won’t do it again. Good luck to you

Determine what is your usual daily carb intake. Determine what is daily recommended allowance for carbs. Pick an amount greater than daily recommended and less than your usual. Though this doesn’t truly give you “LOW” carb, it does assure you “LOWER” carbs.

my suggestion is not that healthy but it helps me lose weight without workout.
i read about atkin’s diet that only allow not more than 20g of carbs to be taken in one week. but still when it comes to protein diet, u can eat as much as you can as long as the 20g carb per week is complied.
p/s i shed from 98kg to 78kg in less than 2 months.

Start with 20 a day. If you did this for the rest of your life it would not be the best idea, but you do it for 2 weeks to really kick start your metabolism. Then you incorporate good carbs back in gradually. It is called Atkins. 😉
And it IS healthy, my blood pressure is way down.

You’ll probably find it extremely difficult to get slim using a Low Carb Dieting Plan. Low carb diets have recently become popular over the last couple years, but the problem with low carb menus is that they are too strict and TOO HARD TO FOLLOW for average people. Low carb menus tend to rob your body of too much energy (carbohydrates) and make it nearly impossible to remain on the program for very long. This is why so many dieters find it difficult to follow a strict low carbohydrate menu.
