Temporary setback due to a high carb day but back on track!
add comment
02 December 2015
Today I went for my first jog in 7 months. I was out of commission for a while thanks to a torn meniscus and then a pulled hamstring. Then, just out of habit I completely stopped working out. I have so much energy from keto that I can't help but to work out and move. Even at work I'm constantly bouncing on my exercise ball (which doubles as my chair).
What's even better than that, I don't worry about getting tired from not having enough carbs to get through my workout. When I was going to the gym everyday that was constantly a struggle. If I didn't get enough carbs I almost always crashed during my workout. But now that my body is burning fat for energy I have more than enough "energy" stored up (thanks belly!)

I never thought I could be *stuffed* on under 1600 calories a day. I set my goal for keto at 1800 calories because I have a pretty sedentary lifestyle and I'm rather tall. However, I rarely ever make that goal or my carb goal. It's so surprising that by just changing the type of food I'm eating I can eat more quantity wise, save calories, feel full, and still lose weight.
Still I miss things like cereal and French toast. When I started keto I thought I was going to have to give all of that up, however I discovered there are so many tasty substitutes! For instance, I recently placed an order from The Great Low Carb Bread Company and ordered some coconut flakes to toast with Stevia. Bam, bread for my french toast (1 carb a slice!) and cereal that taste like Frosted Flakes.
I decided to cheat on Thanksgiving and I carb-loaded. That was by far the worst decision. While the rolls I had were oh-so-yummy, the stomach pain I had that night wasn't. Even more, I found myself craving the protein and fat I was missing. I was never so happy to reduce my carbs as I was Friday morning when the pain subsided, haha. I think my body will be much happier with the low carb breads I'll be eating instead of the real deal.
