Hi, I've successfully been on the Warrior Diet for many years now. So far I've been fasting throughout the morning and having a raw veggie snack in the afternoon before having my huge dinner after my...

Thank you katya422 for understanding and for your post. Yes, this seems to be an issue too little investigated. It would be so easy if just "eat more calories" was the answer. I got my first period...

Thank you for your reply Saucha. I don't have the report right beside me, but the only thing that was abnormal was TSH (higher than normal). But still, I do think I am indeed hypothyroid as you...

Saucha - I think your post was the most helpful. Thank you very much.
One cannot judge a person without knowing them and you did not.

I'm 36 and come from a health professional background myself....

I am glucose sensitive and have therefore been living on a high fat, low-carb dietcfor 10 years. My carbs are around 60g (so not keto). They're the net carbs and all come from veggies and...

Hi there, just a quick update: I did my carb up last Sunday, did a very intense depletion workout and it worked out fine. I had about 700Kcal (only carbs, i.e oats and milk) above maintenance and...

Thanks a lot for your input, my dear friend. Wow, I admire your low carb-intake! I would never be able to go so low bc I need my veggies (I like the taste and they fill me) and I like cottage cheese....

I'm someone who works out 365 days a year and I could not live without it - that's why I asked the question. I've done keto for gaining and losing, but never without exercising (unless if I was...

I have a difficult question: Most people on keto have 30g (max) of carbs per day - like me before, when I did CKD with weekly carb ups.
Now my diet has changed and my carb limit is around 50 max,...

I did that once (SKD then holiday with reduced exercise opportunity) and gained weight big time! Can be bc of my weaker thyroid and that's really the only issue. I never lose strength or stamina. The...

Well, "Do not go" is not an option for me bc I do want to go, I'll be with my boyfriend and to tell you the whole story, I may be lucky and have a few days out of the 10 where we both or I alone...

Thanks a lot for your reply. I've been doing keto since 2008 and successfully gained and cut, but all this whilst exercising (cardio+strength) daily, so I have no idea what will happen if I don't...

I've been on a cut for a longer period now, about 4 months, without carb ups and my carb intake is not the "typical" keto, but still under 60g/day.
There have been some accidental cheats, but only...

Thank you very much guys. I really thought no one would answer. I've seen some that do keto with 50g per day, but I never knew whether they also carbed up sometimes. As I'm doing keto for life, it...

Thanks, but (and this is not meant in a bad way) I know that article inside out as I've done CKD for 2 years before. But it is also strict with the 30g during the week. With my eating plan I cannot...

The way I notice that I need a carb up is: weakness in the legs (bc I use my legs for cardio - bike, elliptical) and my sleep deteriorates. With my 40-50g of carbs a day I can go w/o a carb-up for...

I have a similar question. I'm not doing tkd but I eat between 40 and 50g of carbs a day, all from veggies (the usual keto ones) and cottage cheese. I do cardio (LISS) and weights daily. My question...

Very good addition to the thread, thanks !

Now I'm just thinking where they get the "3 days" from. I know that ketostix are not really reliable and NOT what we are looking for for our results;...

I've googled it several times, but you often don't even find that number. They only say "lower your carbs for 3 days... the body starts switching to fat for fuel for the lack of carbs" etc. If you...

Does anybody know how many carbs (the brain) we use per day, if we are not working out ?
I heard somewhere that it's 50g of carbs per day, but I can't find the source.

I'm asking because: I know...
