An approach to adopting a more plant-based (flexitarian, semitarian, demitarian, reducetarian) diet. Involves restriction of meat/seafood consumption to the weekends and only eating vegetarian-permissible foods the 5 weekdays of every week. Additionally, weekday vegetarians sometimes endorse/promote using seafood consumption to cut down meat-consumption (especially red meat consumption) on the days meat is eaten.
Is often (but not always) used as a tool to slowly transition to a fully vegan, vegetarian or pescetarian diet pattern.

“My son kept failing or quitting the vegetarian diet because he felt too restricted and overwhelmed. He now does the Weekday Vegetarian diet to limit his intake of animal products and is maintaining it a lot more easily.

John Doe: You do realize the “t” in “vegetarian” is because of the word “vegetable/vegetative” right?
Joe Schmo: Stop policing me man it ain’t big shit.
John Doe: By the way, where did you even get the extra “a” from? Meat-at-arian sounds like a code for the directions to join a secret society.

Get the Episcopalian mug.An adherent of rawism (raw foodism); a type of strict fad diet that entails sustaining on foods that are uncooked & only minimally heated. Many forms of food processing are also vilified.
The motives behind such diets are usually based on pseudoscientific notions that unheated foods are inherently safer, more nutritious, easier to digest & more natural. Generally these sentiments aren’t supported by food safety guidelines, nutritional science, or the history of human evolution. Some cooking and food processing methods can actually increase certain nutrients, make nutrients more bioavailable, ease digestion, and reduce the risk of foodborne illness.
The most stringent rawist will reject foods that have been heated by anything other than sunlight & will only eat unprocessed/minimally processed whole foods.
Some rawist are more flexible. They are open to eating certain processed foods and every so often they will eat a meal that incorporates foods cooked extra-extra-rare (40°C seems to be the arbitrarily chosen limit).

1.Shorthand for ketosis & often used as a prefix when used in this sense. (Ex. “Keto-Flu) — a state where the body stops using glucose as it’s primary energy source. Ketones, stored fat, & some amino acids become the primary sources.
2. Shorthand forketogenic diet — A medical diet prescribed to either reduce seizures in epileptics or reduce spikes in diabetics. The goal of keto is to achieve a sustained state of ketosis. Low calorie keto is often utilized by slimmers & lifters to cut a large percentage of body fat quickly, so it sometimes is thought as a fad-diet or even a crash-diet.
When used to cut fat there are 5 basic guidelines.
1. Most carbs eaten should be low netcarb, complex carbs & free of added sugar.
2.Eat more cal from fat than protein & more from protein than carbs. Protein can be broken down into glucose so eating too much threatens ketosis.
3.Restricting cal to 5% from carbs or less is most ideal. 10% is considered good for an active athlete who burns through glucose quickly.
4. Start out eating a highfat (65%-70%) & moderate protein diet (25%-20%).
5.Gradually work toward a very highfat (75%-85%) & low/moderate protein (20%-10%)—no less than 10% for an extended period. Too little can cause a starvation response where the body burns muscle protein for energy instead of using stored fat & the amino acids in dietary protein.

Keto Kevin: I am Keto-Kevin the Ketomite from Ketofalls, CA but I now live in Ketoville USA. I used to be an obese, diabetic having a seizure a day. But then I adopted a Kaleo diet-Ketogenic diet and the constant Ketosis has made me a healthy & convulsion-free bodybuilder with 8% body fat. My likes are working out, ketofucking my girlfriend ketorria, water, avocados, and steak. My dislikes are flour, ketards, keto flu, keto crotch, the keto farts, keto snobs, people claim keto buyer follow the cheato diet, the ketotic shits, ketomites who do dirty keto or lazy keto, and keto cops.
