Cambridge diet on long haul flights.

[sorlands]

Hey,

I'm on the cambridge diet right now, both to lose weight and because diets where you reach ketosis are proven to really help with epilepsy which I have.
I fly long haul a lot (once every 8 weeks or so) and I'd love to hear how you cope on CD when on a long haul flight.
I don't want to cheat because although I know I could have a 500cal meal it's being in ketosis which really helps with reducing seizures, but I know drinking enough water will be an issue and I am not sure how to prepare my meals.
I was thinking of taking a shaker and two shakes and making a shake up after the security check for the first flight (3 hours) and then doing the same at the connecting airport so I can have a second shake and a bar on the longer of the two flights (6 hours)

Hope this makes sense :)

Sounds fine to me! Good luck!

I've done long haul on Lighterlife which is the same idea, they have meal replacement bars so I used those for travelling and went back to the shakes when I landed. Is that an option for you?

I can have bars - the only issue is you need to have water when you drink them. I think I'll just buy a couple of bottles once I am past security :)
