If you keep your fat intake somewhat balanced, i.e. not exclusively saturated fats, you should have no problem. For example, eggs tend to increase your HDL level (good Cholesterol). Your actual mileage may vary - test your Cholesterol level before you start.
Getting started / tips
- Eat 5 to 6 meals daily.¥ Eat something when you are hungry - don't wait.
- Keep sodium intake reasonable, some meat products can be pretty high.
- Drink enough water !¥ This diet doesn't work if your fat intake goes too low (below about 40%).
- Start at around 3000 calories per day (or 18*bw), then adjust up or down depending on your results and goals.
- You may need to use a fiber supplement (watch out for hidden carbs).
- First week can be rough - stick with it.
- Regularly check bodyfat percentage (for example using calipers).
- During the weekend, be careful with foods with high glycemic index - they can wreak havoc on your insulin level, and switch you into fat storage mode more quickly.
