👍👍👍 

Doing both. Feeling tired and lazy today but I’m still taking my butt to boxing class tonight since I didn’t workout yesterday and I won’t get another workout day till Monday. 😒 

Went back in Keto but I’m doing cyclical 

Yay keto!  

boxing is HIIT 👍 

Chris, because i needed someone to push me, lol! I went last night and he kicked my @$$! I was doing low carb but I was at a plateau and I’m not happy with the amount of squish I still have. Doing cyclical Keto to see if that works better for me. I watched a video that Brandon Cárter did on Cyclical Keto and he convinced me, lol!  

It was about muscle building on Keto  

Hmmm.... I think I’ll give this some time and then do what you’re doing!  

What most people don't realize is fasting can put a healthy non keto person into light ketosis even after just sleeping for 8-10 hours 😜 so a lot of people are probably doing cyclical keto 😱 

I never registered high even with blood.. Almost never with urine. I just read your body actually reabsorbs ketones that are in your bladder also which I've never heard of.. Interesting  

I know when I slip into ketosis when I get that Keto headache. Ugh.  

Go have some broth. You’ll feel better. 

The headache is likely from low electrolytes - when you eat low carb, the body sheds salt. Have a cup of salty broth or bouillon, it should help. 

Broth and H2O ✅  

Well, I broke Keto this weekend because I went out of town for a wedding Saturday afternoon. Then I went to ihop yesterday (slightly hung over) and I had to have a pancake... ended up having 2 small peices of brownie on top of that. Had to take an allergy pill because of my gluten allergy! Zero regrets though! I’m back today and I worked it off! Ended up taking a private boxing technique class this afternoon followed by some moderate weight training, and then took a boxing class this evening. I will be staying on top of my water intake and plan on drinking broth to avoid that nasty headache.  

Yaaaas! Getting right back at it!  

*Gasp!* ... Christopher! Are you implying that I don’t have enough self control for Keto?! 😱 

Lol! I’m just joking with you! You always give great advice and I really value your knowledge. I agree with all of the points you made, which is why I thought cyclical Keto might be a better option. I think that deep Keto might not be good for the issues that I face. Going to give this a little more time and then maybe I’ll just go back to low carb.  

Lol! Well, I was but not really. I wasn’t doing it right.  

I don’t think I was loading up enough for it to give me enough fuel for the week.
