Probably not. I'm eating a lot less carbs than I used to, but lately I've not been limiting them enough to be ketogenic on any kind of regular basis. > I also understand that this Lemon diet is only a 10 to 12 day thingy?

Of course you're not going to stay ketogenic. > BTW, not much info included in your post other than 1000 cal/day. About 6 fresh lemons or limes and a cup or so of grade "B" maple syrup to make about 60 ounces of "lemonade." Drink in place of all food. Add cayenne pepper to taste and drink a cup of herbal laxative tea once or twice a day if desired. > Note: Atkins used a 1000 cal/day jumpstart in his system consisting > of 10 grams of cream cheese/day for not more than 5 days.

That's where you gotta be careful. Between fluid and muscle loss, you can drop a lot of "weight" really fast, but that's not going to make you healthier. Be well, Mike D.
