@dominion7 I like the current day carbs VERY low and fats protein in range
can you get a ketone strip to test ketones please?
tricep pushdowns hows the pump?

Lol...I've posted 2 tests this week. I re-attached the latest test. I'm still in the "small" range. I'll post tomorrow's test and hopefully I'll be closer to ketosis.

I don't even need to use those keto strips to know when I'm in ketosis. I've done it so many times I know that my lungs burn from the acetone your body is expelling through your lungs. I also get cotton mouth as well when in ketosis. Oh I also feel high and have extra energy for some weird reason.

That's an awesome side affect
I'm just glad weight is coming off. My gluttonous ass got up to 244, I was 231 this morning. I plan to break into the 220's before the weekend is over. Then kill that last 25 lbs in 5 weeks..( that's goal anyway) lol

I've seen your other tests but we need ongoing testing to see if your diet is getting you into the ketogenic state.

231 is perfect, push into 220 you're close

people get cotton mouth from dry fasting, completely normal, its from water leaving your body fast.. if you are getting it from water fasting or being in ketosis then drink more water with some salt.

the high energy is because your body is running on ketones vs. glycogen. its why fasted exercise is so much cleaner then training after a meal. our ancestors hunted while hungry, not while full. hence why we need to be that way. if it was the opposite we would have gone exctinct a long time ago having to survive all the famines humans endured. in fact at one time there were only 200-300 breeding homo sapiens on earth around 200K years ago due to the harsh conditions, those remaining survivors all had certain traits including the ability to have more energy in a fasted state to find food to survive.

 

[Wootoom]

that processed stuff has a lot of junkie stuff in it man.

gotta be careful with that.

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

you don't need to post all the ingredients, but its good to know what you are putting in your body.

 

[2Thick]

stay away from the bread.

even though its unbleached still no good at all.

 

[e2]

stretch the fasting out longer and you will get deeper into ketosis.

that will work.

 

[Ulter]

Time to really tighten things up, going into your vacation.

If you get to take this seriously, it's time to really push it big time.

 

[chesty]

start doing longer fasts is my advice. and do a shit ton of fasted cardio every day.

 

[ROIDDERS]

25 pounds in 5 weeks is doable.
but you gotta really tighten it up fast.

 

[ceo]

bros ketones gotta be higher then that if you gonna hit your goal.

otherwise set a smaller goal.

Good work

This is perfect, you're in actual ketosis, congratulations, your body is burning fat for energy. @dominion7
