Fasting benefits fat loss because of lowered insulin levels.
Fatty meat doesn't increase insulin levels.
Same can't be said of grains and starchy carbs.

The average American has been brainwashed by years of Corporate/Gov-controlled media talking about the "evil" of fatty meat, while lauding carbohydrates, with their penchant for increasing blood sugar...which can then be "fixed" by a variety of obscenely-priced corporately-produced and marketed pharmaceuticals.
BTW, are the skinny Japanese who eat lots of rice analogous to the fat elephants who eat peanuts?...or maybe it's the skinny snakes who eat mice? ;-)
There is a reason that "comparing apples to apples" became a famous saying...even amongst Meateaters.

I have no problems maintaining my weight eating this way. The only thing I find is I get bloating when I overdo the fruit which I often do as I love fruit but it always goes by next morning.
