Arsis Posted May 21, 2014 Author Share Posted May 21, 2014 I didn't see the blog the first time u posted..but just read it...what a great resource...i threw almond milk in my morning coffee,,, had a weird feeling it was ok .... did u see this link? http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/keto.htm Ok so here's my lifestyle, i wake up, drive to work, sit for 9 hours, drive home, exhausted...maybe walk dog...5 days a week. Today I started ketosis...i didn't carb load because my life has been a carb load, so here's my plan for today: RIght out of bed, coffee with almond milk, and I scooped a tablespoon of pure butter and ate it straight. Washed that down with water. When I go for something, I go all the way. Fiber shake before I left. Can't let plumbing get backed up on this. Breakfast: 4 fried eggs, 3 strips bacon, 2 slices muenster Lunch: 2 cups mozzarella cheese, 1 cup romaine lettuce Dinner: 4 oz ground beef (87%), 4 slices cheddar cheese Net: 2038 Calories, 71% Fat, 27% Protein, 3% carbs Feel good, maybe a slight headache after breakfast. Let you know how I feel in a couple hours lol. Not nearly enough protein for me in that. I try to hit 250g/day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let you know how I feel in a couple hours lol. good link....i don't think I've seen this before give you credit with that butter.....that would be tough for me. Thats a good meal plan...spot on. If you had too much protein it will keep you out of ketosis...protein can convert into glucose. Too much protein = too much glucose = no more ketosis. Ultimately everyone is different though...some people can handle more protein in ketosis than others Here is a link to tons of recipes and meal plans......http://cavemanketo.com/ This website is just as much as a bible as the other link IMO. I find the first 3 days to be the most difficult. When I was trainer in my younger days I had clients who after 3 weeks on this diet and made it into a permanent lifestyle after feeling that much better from not eating carbs. Other things like reduced body inflammation, increased energy levels, lower blood pressure, clearer thinking, are other benefits when you dramatically reduce carbs from your diet.

It sounds crazy but I already feel better. No bloating, slight tired headache but clearer thinking at the same time. Your links have been a grail. I toyed with the calorie counter today but as you know it's not just calories, it's the quality of the food itself. It's just as important to eat good, natural food which you know. My wife had me doing the "Clean" plan last year which is shakes with fruits, protein and fats. I couldn't stand it, I was feeling extremely hungry for reasons you state above...feeling much better with this..I know you do 5-6 days but I may drag this out. It's going to be hard to do through Memorial Day weekend but I wanted to give this a shot anyway. I'll do my best @ Arsis, I didn't want to say anything but, 250g of carbs a day, doesn't exactly sound like ketosis for reasons quoted here?

Lol.....My wife would have me living off of nuts and berries all day if she had it her way. She eats like a friggen squirrel.....but to each their own. If you can follow a ketogenic diet 7 days a week...then you will benefit that much more. I have done it it for 5-6 months at a shot but football season and the holidays always makes me give it up over the weekend. But let me tell you....come Monday morn, after a weekend of carbs, my body aches and feels inflamed...my stomach feels huge from being so bloated....and I am foggy as all hell until Monday evening. Its a stiff reminder of how bad carbs are for your body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was this huge scam, you can buy this guy's mix of vitamins and protein if you want etc... But the kicker was that you could have a hard lunch, in other words they suggest you go to chipotle and get the salad bowl. I did this twice and was about ready to kill someone on my train home I was so hangry. The ******* shake plan loads you up on sugar and protein and then tells you to go walk into a fast food place for lunch? Realizing now how carbs create hunger, I understand how crazy that plan is. I was real tight on cash like 8 years ago when I started working... It was pasta for me every night and I still remember how bad I felt. Anyway,, I don't drink to begin with, so this a plan I can probably pull off with less stress.. But during football and tailgating..

stugotz81 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Umm it will work. But not if I eat 250g protein a day It 100% works, I trained a lady weighing in at 267lbs follow this diet with just a 2 day a week 30min workout routine (all she had time for).....and she successfully lost 110lbs over 14 months. She is just one of many success stories I had from when I was a personal trainer 10 years ago.....they all followed this diet program....its money.

stugotz81 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Just familiar via online research the last few days...isn't it also possible to check levels via a diabetes "finger prick" monitor? find your local Walmart and they sell them at the pharmacy counter for 6 bucks. No need to test blood. Just pee on the stick and it will let you know if you are in ketosis. Its also a good test for checking to see if a certain food will knock you out of ketosis.......for example....supposedly you cannot not eat breaded chicken on a ketogenic diet..... but I found these Perdue lightly breaded frozen chicken nuggets and the same kind as chicken strips that will not knock me out of ketosis per the ketostix..... I'll take 15 of those nuggets, cover them in blue cheese and some wing sauce and boom....buffalo wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually test on Tuesday mid day just to make sure Im in ketosis (after a weekend of carbs).....After I'm in ketosis, I will just check only if I ate something that may have kicked me out. When I first started doing this type of diet I checked 3 times a day just to ensure myself I was eating the right foods.....I suggest the same to you.
