Cliffhanger - How the f**k is this thread still going?...Oh yeah boobs!

I guess the definition of "low carb" is in question

you're low carb



yep that's all i got

Keto is sub 20g of carbs. Ketones are caused by your body running on fat for fuel instead of carbohydrates. A buildup of ketones will f**k you up, that's why the fluid intake on the diet is so strictly high, you need to flush them out. And because of the high fluid you need more salt so all that doesn't go with the ketones. Plus you need to take vitamins, and normally eat veges. I don't because I'm shit.

It's a balancing act doing it right, but there are plenty doing it long term. If you screw the balance I agree, it's no way near sustainable.

 

[Cliffhanger]

Not sure where you got sub 20 gram from, but it's wrong, there's no magic number, it depends on your body's needs what will get you into a state of ketosis. Your body produces ketones because they're the only fuel apart from glucose your brain can use.

 

[afinalsin666]

Of course it's wrong, but unless you are Verne Troyer under 20g will put you in keto. I'm 6'4", so of course I'd be able to have more and stay in ketosis, it's just easier to say sub 20g.

And then there is Ketone acidosis which I don't recommend...Dani can explain

Well ladies,as new research shows that the average women expends 1500 calories in a days shopping ....I say shop til you drop may be a better anthem than no pain ,no gain.

so long as you include a few squats to push those stilettos back on I think we might be onto a winner.

 

[afinalsin666]

Aye, that's gnarly shit. That's the reason you need to keep fluid levels up. The ketones leave via the bladder, so you need a bunch of fluid to be rid of it. I drink 4 or 5 liters a day, and you really need to do it so it doesn't build up.

If there's one big drawback to living in China, it's that it is a bitch to diet. I dislike the local cuisine, foreign food is almost universally of the comfort food (bad for you) variety, and the staples you'd use back home to put together healthy meals are either absent, overpriced, or gross Chinese approximations.

What I wouldn't give for access to a Woolies or a Coles once a month.

Excellent.

Ignore her. She's dealing with menopause and it's obviously got her panties in a (dusty) bunch.

 

[afinalsin666]
