Things still Goin well. At 165, trying to get to 160 so I can slowly bulk up to 170-ish. Maybe 175 but my midsection and chest looks good. Was doin my cardio and One of the dudes was watching me and told me I have unseen abs. Just do more intense cardio. He said a month Of HITT and a good jump rope routine would have my ab shining through definitely by the end of the summer no later.

My girl starting to annoy me though. She Not supporting me but that’s cool. I don’t need her support but I also don’t need her trying to discourage me from bettering myself. I don’t know what her motive or reasoning is but it’s really starting to annoy me she basically want me to stop the Keto lifestyle( really months ago) and I guess eat undisciplined again.
She's envious of your discipline and the subsequent results it's produced. Dont pay no mind to that shyt. Keep being focused.

Makes no sense to me. One thing I make sure not to do is NOT force my lifestyle on ppl. I don’t tell her or my son how to eat. I just sit back and let them do them. It’s not easy to sit in the car and watch your fam order some baconator cheese burger from checkers or pizza, or IHOP and just sit back and watch them consume that delicious smelling food but I don’t resist temptation and let them enjoy themselves. I don’t ask her to look at me or my progression. I just change everything on my own. I shop for my own food, and make my own side dishes. She even eats some of my lifestyle food. I don’t go to the gym a lot . I just do a lot of cardio, go to the swimming pool, and hoop when I have time.

Been about a month out of keto and I am ready to come back soon. Carbs make me hungry with the lower fats.

Some days I over ate in the Carb dept by double (near 500 grams) and was still hungry af. I'd eat 1lb of chicken and 4 servings of rice as 1 meal and was ready to eat more when I was done with it. :francis:

I was surprise yesterday when I check my ketones with the piss strips. I stopped checking about three weeks ago because I didn’t much care about being in ketosis anymore and I though I had run out of the urinalysis strips but I found one in the medicine. I’m getting ready to transition out of Keto. So I have still been doing low carbs food but I been eating a lot of vegetables and fruits. Slices fruits like cantaloupe pineapple even tangerines. Salmon and crab cakes . I definitely felt like I haven’t been disciplined to the strict 25 carbs or less rule. I took the last urinalysis strip yesterday and got a high ass reading of at least 8 mmol or more. When I was truly dedicated to the diet I never got a high result like that. It was always a minimum or optimal reading

If it’s your normal way of eating, I assume you been doin Keto a long time. If so what’s your daily limit for carbs? I heard ppl who are well into the lifestyle, can actually eat 50 carbs daily and still be ok(in ketosis)

Less than 50 net carbs, yeah you can be still in Ketosis with that - I check my bloods every so often and im well into Ketosis

Ive been on keto since last monday, pairing it with intermment fasting and weight lifting 6x a week. Ive gone from 274 to 261. Not bad ima stick to it for another month i need to get back down to 225

I have notice a slight decrease in my strength
Im hitting my reps but i really have to push hard. Also alcohol on keto is a no-no. I drank about a pint of jameson which is nothing to me and i woke up tnrowing up hard. My tolerance has gotten extremely low so i might just cut it out or stick to 1-2 drinks

Yeah, any type of cutting will result in strength loss - just try lift as much as you can so your body has a reason to keep the muscle.

But remember you will LOOK like your strong as hell when your ripped :smile: long as you been lifting and have muscle when that fat melts away boy
:wow:

Thats good, just remember when your fully fat adapted piss strips are not that good as its measuring excess Ketones your pissing out, once your fully adapted you wont have much excess as thats all your body is running on.

I use blood tests as a more accurate reading of Ketones

At this point I’m pretty sure I’m close to 40-40-20 in macros. I consuming a lot of proteins and fiber since I’m working out a lil more. Most of my fats come from snacks

Back in this bih, the high carb life was not for me. Hunger and cravings while cutting ain't fun. Going to transition into mainly steak and eggs soon and see how that goes.

Changed my intermittent fast from 16:8 to 5:2. This 24 hour fast is incredible and easy with the bulletproof coffee. And the bulletproof coffer is only 3 dollars at my local natural market so I buy six at a time. Feel like I can do more than a 25 hour fast but I’ll stick to the rules

She know you bout to have hella women looking at you like buffet instead of like a snack. Keep at it, tell her it's bout yo health not her feelings:ufdup:


If my girl left me right now, I know I won't be in Larry mode trying to get back into shape to try to look more presentable.

I be breaking my friends balls as the Italians say :dame: because we both started dieting for New Years and he regressed to 2017, Im like 2019 was supposed to be our year:russ:



I'm about to send him a diet plan because he is about to have surgery so he will be even worse off from inactivity eating good ass food I can't eat.
