Ramadan and keto diet

[the.muscled.lawyer]

Dear friends

You probably know it is ramadan for muslims.

During this month, muslims are not allowed to eat from the sunrise until the sunset.

During this time I decrease my activities and become sedentary.

I work out two days/week.

Since I only eat after 10 pm and became sedentary, should I decrease my intake of 1800 kcal ?

3 hours after my dinner I go sleep and I realized I gained 1 kg on the scale hence the need to reduce the fats

My curent macro is 70 % fats - 25% protein - 5% carbs.

Total 1800 kcal in normal time .

Thank you.

I feel you will be fine. Seems like you may be following intermittent fasting style diet now for this reason. I do it not because of religious reasons although I believe in my self so call it as you wish, but I eat once a day in a window of 2-3 hours after fasting for 16-20hours, I get all my daily kcals which is about 2000kcal, and I am more than pleased with how it works for me.

Also, I love keto diet

PS. It took me some time till my body adjusted to fasting window this long but once I got used to it I found it to be great not to be naturally hungry until the specific time comes. Some like it some don't, and I love it.

Great advice above

I love intermittent fasting and do it most of the time

You can look up lean gains dot com to get more of the science behind the 16-8 method.

There are many types of fasting diets out there, find one that will work for you.
