This got posted halfway through writing it due to oversized fingers, this post has been finished and the other post has been deleted.
Is it right for me? Is it right for my other half? Is it a temporary tool for fat loss and self torture or a sustainable way of life? 30 days should be enough to answer these questions, and here is...
Day 1: Went to gym in AM, felt fine until about 1pm, then I got very very tired. After a few hours a strange haze set it that is still with me, it's difficult to think and type. I hear this is normal and it'll go away in a few days. It better.
It's worth noting that at no time today have i ever really felt hungry, though the cravings have been absolutely rediculous... I have dieted before (never lo carb) and been just fine... maybe a bit hungry, but never insane cravings. I never realised until today just how wonderfully comforting carbs of nearly any kind really are.
I quit smoking cold turkey 10 days ago and the feeling now is quite similar to 2nd day nicotine withdrawal.
Anyway, here's what i ate:
6:30am
Peanut Butter, 2 Tablespoons, 190 cal, 16g fat, 6g carbs, 8g protein
Whey Shake, 107 cals, 2g fat, 19g protein
8:30am
4 whole egg omelet (no milk), 397 cals, 29g fat, 5g carbs, 27g protein
10:45am
chicken breast, 100g, 164 cals, 4g fat, 0g carbs, 31g protein
raw spinach, 80 g, 18 cals, 0g fat, 3g carbs, 2g protein
mayo, 30g, 215 cals, 24g fat, 1g carb, 0g protein
1:30pm
chicken breast, 100g, 164 cals, 4g fat, 0g carbs, 31g protein
steamed asparagus, 5 medium spears, 33 cals, 2g fat, 3g carbs, 2g protein
butter spread, 5 g, 18 cals, 2g fat, 0g carb, 0g protein
cheddar cheese, 30g, 107 cals, 8g fat, 1g carbs, 6g protein
4pm snack
Almonds, 1oz, 172 cals, 16g fat, 5g carbs, 6g protein
6pm
ham/gammon, 180g, 234 cals, 12g fat, 0g carb, 32g protein
2 large scrambled eggs, 199 cals, 14g fat, 3g carbs, 14g protein
cheddar cheese, 25g, 101 cals, 8g fat, 0g carbs, 6g protein
mushrooms, 60g, 28 cals, 2g fat, 3g carbs, 14g protein
8pm
ham/gammon, 180g, 234 cals, 12g fat, 0g carb, 32g protein (they came two to a pack, can't let it go to waste, can i?)
cheddar cheese (because god damnit i love cheese), 25g, 101 cals, 8g fat, 0g carbs, 6g protein
Totals:
Cals: 2,474
Fat: 162g; 1,429 cals; 58%
Carbs: 37g; 141 cals; 6%
Protein: 223g; 911 cals; 37%
I've got my eyes on a peperami, sort of a uk version of the slim jim. That'll add another 127 cals, 11g fat abd 6.1g protein, if i eat it. I may save for a freak out emergency.
Weight: 195.25 lb
5 pints of water, 4 cups of coffee, 3 diet cokes. will probably have 2 more pints of water. is the jury still out on caffiene/keto or is this ok?
Won't bother posting workout, it is similar to what i have done in the past with pretty good results
Sleep!
