[jeremys]

i was just wondering if creatine would somehow affect ketosis or whatever..

i think i'm just going to do a 50/30/20...or maybe 20/30...thanks for the help though. maybe you know lots about 50/20/30 also?

50/30/20 , there's not much to know about it, just do the ratios and the diet. Nothing special.

pros/cons? is 30% fat or carbs?

Pro, better then your diet now and effective
Con, will require patience

I mean, look you cannot peg pros or cons to any diet because it's based on the individual. 50%protein/30%carbs/20%fat

thanks. i know i'm asking quite a few questions, but i have another one

do you feel there's much of a difference between a 50/30/20 and a 40/30/30? or is a 40/30/30 just cheaper?

and when you say i'd need patience with a 50/30/20...im thinking you mean weight loss would be slow compared to a CKD? i'm just looking to lose 1-2 pounds a week

1-2lbs. a week is probably not feasible, more like .33-.5 lbs. a week. I would say 40/30/30 is more beneficial to you because of your age.

To drop 1lb a week you need to be at a 4500-5000 cal. deficit, to drop 2lb you need to be at a 9000-1000 deficit. You're not going to do that, for that means almost a 700cal. deficit for the 1lb. and over 1000 deficit for the 2lbs.

A balanced diet is good for the health, that's why I recommend it for growing boys. It's probably the most feasible idea when it comes to nutrition and growth.

if i ate 10x bodyweight in calories to cut, i'd be over a 3600 calorie deficit over the course of 7 days, assuming 12x bodyweight= maintenence. now thats just with diet. i'll also be sprinting 1-2x a week. i dont know how many calories cardio burns but i'd think that'd put me very close to a 5000 calorie deficit for the week, woudlnt it?

by the way, i heard somewhere 1 pound of fat= ~3500 calories?

i'm not looking for the healthiest diet, i'm just looking for a diet that will get me into single-digit bodyfat without losing much mass. then whatever is healthiest/easiest of those choices is what i'd like to pick
