Chinka's ready to go now!

**Chinka67** · 02-14-2009, 03:14 PM

I have been researching the ckd for some time now. Probably really started two weeks ago when I had gained 14 pounds from a great mass gaining program. I want to cut and I mean now. I believe this diet is for me. I am going grocery shopping tonight and tomorrow. My grocery list has the following on it:
keto stix
groud beef
eggs
extra virgin olive oil
bacon
sausage
tuna
chicken
sardines
cheese
and anything else I can find that has high fat and no carbs.
If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. When I start a new diet there is no turining back.

nuts & seeds (almonds, pecans, macadamia, pumpkin) are good to have handy in case of a snack on the go.

if you like avocados, id pick up some of those too.

and broccoli/cauliflower/asparagus/spinach. something.
please dont think keto means its ok to not eat veggies, theyre actually more important on this diet to keep the body alkaline.

other than that looks aiight.
just watch for the carbs in sausages, it takes some digging-- some brands have 0g, some have 5g. same with the bacon.

grats on hitting the magical number with the macro

**Chinka67** · 02-17-2009, 11:39 AM

Today was leg day. Not too bad. I will be checking my keto situation out tonight, but the 48 hour mark won't be until tomorrow morning. Totally psyched!

**Chinka67** · 02-17-2009, 05:03 PM

I finished calculating my totals for the day and I ended up with
65/3/32.
fat/carbs/protein.

**thesilent1** · 02-18-2009, 02:54 AM

How's it going so far then?

**Chinka67** · 02-18-2009, 12:09 PM

Well, just got don with lifting. I did chest and arms. Went well. I just checked to see if I was in ketosis yet and I am not. When is the best time to check to see if you are in a state of ketosis? It has been roughly 60 hours on no carbs.

**j-ronde** · 02-18-2009, 03:47 PM

It's sometimes hard to tell if you're in ketosis or not. If you see yourself starting to get leaner in the mirror, you will know.

**Chinka67** · 02-18-2009, 06:25 PM

I have gotten alot of feedback on my new thread concerning this problem. I am so happy that other people have voiced their opinions and I have learned alot today. My food percentages were right on eating about 2,800 kcals and the percentages were 64/2/34, fat/carbs/protein.

Good work big man - keep it up and you will be looking proper when the weather changes out there in the midwest!

**Chinka67** · 02-19-2009, 12:33 PM

I just finished another workout. I was a little fatigued throughout the workout, but it went well. I did a combination of back and abs with a little cardio in between. I am thrilled with all the responses that I have gotten from my posts. All you guys and gals are great. Keep up the good work and I will too.

**Chinka67** · 02-21-2009, 01:41 PM

Sorry I did not post yesterday. I decided for my workout I would do an all body circuit, to fully delpete the glycogen storages for the weekend. I still have tons of energy and am doing great. My appetite is not there, I feel full all day. I still know that I need to eat, but not feeling hungry is great! I would hate to snack all day when I was eating carbs. I will probably carb up a slight next weekend but not too much.

**Chinka67** · 02-22-2009, 07:17 PM

I did a little cardio today about 30 minutes of hiit and then some abs. My macr nutrients were like this: 54fat/3carbs/43protein. I know I had a little too much protein due to protein powder but my calories stayed under 2500 for the day.

**thesilent1** · 02-23-2009, 04:45 AM

I see you are not having around 200g of fat a day then.

Yeah, Sunday was not great. I had too much protein powder,but one day is not going to kill me. Today was pretty good as far as the workout goes. I lost a little strength since last weeks woorkout. Today I am going to upt the fat and get back to normal. Keeping strict with the diet during the week is easy because I am at work so much. I have a strict plan that I can follow. By the way, I work at a gym so it's easy to stay motivated. Thanks for the reply!

**thesilent1** · 02-24-2009, 02:23 AM

Lucky dude! I wished i STILL worked at a gym............

**Chinka67** · 02-25-2009, 02:14 PM

I had chest and arms today for the workout. It went great, but now 2 hours later I am really dragging. I have no energy and still have to go into work tonight to train one client. I have cardio and maybe back tomorrow to lift and then the circuit workout on Friday. I am carb loading starting Friday night after the workout and doing that for 24 hours.

**Chinka67** · 02-27-2009, 01:24 PM

I am finally going to start the carb loading tonight after my last workout for the week. I plan on taking in a couple pieces of fruit 2 hours before the workout. I have a serving of Nano Vapor I am going to use for my preowrkout as well. During the workout I am going to be sipping on some ABB ripped force for some added carbs. After the workout I am going to ingest 2 scoops of Muuscletech's Anabolic Halo. I love this stuff! I was taking it before the keto diet. I haven't had any in more then 2 weeks. With this I am going to do a couple scoops of Cytogainer from Cytosport. This should really help spike the insulin. Right before I go to bed I will have something with about 70grams of carbs. I still don't know about waking up in the middle of the night to eat. I will think about it. I plan on carb loading for 24 hours and consume close to 500 grams of carbs.

**Chinka67** · 02-27-2009, 06:45 PM

Just came home after the last workout for the week. I hit the weights hard and fast. Got in my carbs and protein after the workout and still plan on getting some in before bed in a couple of hours. Might wake up once tonight to go to the bathroom and down some carbs. I usually wake up to go to the bathroom so I might as well get some carbs in while I am up.

**Chinka67** · 03-01-2009, 04:09 AM

The carb up yesterday went well. I did over do it at an all you can eat Chinese buffet. I ate quite a bit of sushi and fish. I also ate some dessert too. It all tasted really good. Going into the meal I still needed to eat about 200 grams of carbs to get to my 500 grams for the day. I came pretty close. I am back on the keto diet today and will see how the rest of the week goes to see if I carb load next weekend or just have a cheat meal on Saturday.

**anniesbay** · 03-01-2009, 07:46 AM

I just did my carb up last night/yesterday too. With a depletion workout and i'm so sore. What do you do you the day after a carb up? are you supposed to workout or can i take a day off?

**Chinka67** · 03-01-2009, 04:52 PM

I actually worked out today and I feel great. I decided to do chest and arms seeing that those are two of my strongest body parts. I feel great, not sore at all and ate great today. Plenty of fat and protein and I don't want to see another sweet food or carb for a while.

**Chinka67** · 03-03-2009, 05:51 PM

Another good leg workout today. I still need to eat some more fat and protein tonight. I will probably freeze some heavy whipping cream together with a scoop of protein powder. Still don't know about the carb up this saturday. I am going to do chest and arms tomorrow and then see how I feel.

**Sideways17** · 03-03-2009, 06:30 PM

Sounds like its going well for you! I just started my keto diet yesterday, its going awesome. Did my back workout and 1/2 hour on the treadmill after weights tonight. Felt pretty tired and I have had a slight headache all day, but I guess that's normal? How much weight have you lost so far?

**Chinka67** · 03-03-2009, 07:32 PM

I've lost about 5lbs. Started at 180 and now 175. Starting to see more defintion in my shoulders and chest, especially my back. The abs are just going to take time.

**Chinka67** · 03-05-2009, 12:09 PM

Just got home from another workout. I had arms and shoulders today. I did a lot of supersets today, pretty tired throughout the workout. Will probably go back and run tonight and tomorrow. Plan on my full body workout and carb up Saturday afternoon.
