Sadly, those who workout hard but still can&#8217;t seem to shed the pounds know this saying is painfully true. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We know that picking a diet plan and sticking to it can feel intimidating or outright impossible, but Booky has got your back- and your belly! Check out our list of some of the <strong>trendiest and effective diet plans<\/strong> out there. Who knows, maybe one of them is the diet that will have you shedding those pounds like nothing! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Ketogenic Diet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ketogenic Diet, more popular known as just &#8220;keto&#8221;, is <strong>a low-carb diet<\/strong> that aims to replace your typical daily carb intake with healthy fat. By replacing your carbs with fat your body enters <em>ketosis<\/em>, a metabolic state that let&#8217;s you <strong>burn fat for energy at an extremely effective rate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"770\" height=\"552\" src=\"https:\/\/sih.booky.ph\/eyJrZXkiOiJibG9nXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDE5XC8wN1wvMjEyMTIzMDRcL2NoaWNrZW4tYnJlYXN0LWZpbGV0LTIyMTU3MDlfOTYwXzcyMC5qcGciLCJidWNrZXQiOiJib29reXJlcG9ydCJ9\" alt=\"Ketogenic Diet\" class=\"wp-image-126695\" decoding=\"async\"><figcaption>Photo from <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/photos\/chicken-breast-filet-chicken-salad-2215709\/\">Pixabay<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from the immediate weight loss effects, keto also offers a slew of other benefits such as handling <strong>Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and even Alzheimer&#8217;s disease<\/strong>! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What you can eat:<\/strong> eggplant, spinach, cabbage, tomatoes, coconut, avocado, shrimp, tuna, sardines, beef, pork, chicken, cheese, chia seeds, Brazil nuts, macadamia nuts, walnuts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We recommend:<\/strong> pairing your keto diet with low intensity workouts such as jogging, swimming, and lifting at a lighter weight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"770\" height=\"552\" src=\"https:\/\/sih.booky.ph\/eyJrZXkiOiJibG9nXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDE5XC8wN1wvMjEyMTMwMTVcL0EtQktZLUpDLVBsYXRpbnVtRml0bmVzcy0xODgwMDc2LmpwZyIsImJ1Y2tldCI6ImJvb2t5cmVwb3J0In0=\" alt=\"Guy-swimming-in-pool\" class=\"wp-image-126696\" decoding=\"async\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>Intermittent Fasting Diet <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Intermittent Fasting isn&#8217;t like your typical diet plan in the sense that it doesn&#8217;t really focus on <em>what to eat<\/em> as much as it focuses on <strong>when to eat<\/strong>. Basically, <strong>you&#8217;re only allowed to eat within a set period of time<\/strong>. So if you&#8217;ve set 1PM-9PM to be your designated eating window, then you <strong>cannot<\/strong> eat anything outside of that time slot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a couple of ways that you can go about intermittent fasting, but the most popular one is having an <strong>8-hour window<\/strong> during your day where you can eat while strictly fasting the rest of the day. Other methods include fasting for <strong>two days out of the week<\/strong> or even fasting for <strong>an entire 24-hour period<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"770\" height=\"552\" src=\"https:\/\/sih.booky.ph\/eyJrZXkiOiJibG9nXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDE5XC8wN1wvMjEyMTM0MDZcL3dhdGNoLWhhbmQtY2xvY2stdGltZS1udW1iZXItaG91ci1hbmFsb2ctYWxhcm0tY2xvY2stc2NhbGUtZGVjb3ItY2lyY2xlLWNsb2NrLWZhY2UtZm9udC1zaGFwZS1zZWNvbmQtcG9pbnRlci10aW1lLWluZGljYXRpbmctdGltZS1vZi1kYXRlcy1taW51dGVzLXdhdGNoZXMtaG9tZS1hY2Nlc3Nvcmllcy10aW1lLXByZXNzdXJlLTc0MzA5OC5qcGciLCJidWNrZXQiOiJib29reXJlcG9ydCJ9\" alt=\"Clock\" class=\"wp-image-126697\" decoding=\"async\"><figcaption>Photo from <a href=\"https:\/\/pxhere.com\/en\/photo\/743098\">pxhere<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What you can eat:<\/strong> as the we&#8217;ve mentioned, you can basically <strong>eat whatever you want<\/strong>, provided that it&#8217;s within your allotted eating window.
