Started my keto diet.

**gleesamo** · 07-31-2009, 07:46 AM

Trying to stay around 2000 calories. Not much of a calorie counter, so im just gonna wing it. Any criticism and info is greatly appriciated!

weight:190
bf%:12%

1st meal,6.A.M: 4 hole eggs,2 strips bacon,1slice cheese, muscle tech protein drink
2nd meal,9.a.m: Sausage and bacon kabob from flying J

going to stop taking the muscletech protein, all the glutamine will kick me out of ketosis.

**gleesamo** · 07-31-2009, 06:16 PM

does anybody know if NOXPLODE will take you out of ketosis?

**queloque** · 07-31-2009, 06:18 PM

If you are burning 750 calories and only eating 2000 calories you may want to bump of your intake.

**gleesamo** · 07-31-2009, 07:25 PM

Okay. Its going to be hard though. Ive been on a very strick low carb very low fat diet this past two months. Im feeling really guilty eating all this fat. lol. does this diet have to be an exact science, and am i risking becoming fat be not measuring out my foods like i see other people do who are on the keto diet?

Not really because you are replacing carbs with fat for energy. Its 60 percent of your intake. Even in a balanced diet fat is almost or at 40 percent of your intake. People are just stuck on the low fat fraud that has been going on for the past 30 year as we get fatter and fatter because media is telling people don't eat fat at all or very low. Your heart uses fat exclusively for energy. We have no choice but to eat it.

I read in this forum that l-glutamine will take you out of ketosis, so i went and got some 100% whey protien. I also take noxplode as a pre workout supplient because i get up at 330am to work out. noxplode has some glutamine in it and i was thinking about stopping taking it. Any info? Im a noob and have searched, but I suck at searching

Yeah, I read something about that. I don't know. I personally never had problems getting into ketosis and I've taken it. It all depends I guess.

**gleesamo** · 07-31-2009, 08:01 PM

i just read on a different forum that maltodexitrin, or something like that will take you out of ketosis. No xplode has it =(. If i dont get in to ketosis in 2 more days i will stop using it and get something else.

last meal of the day: 2 pork chops,leafy green salad with 1 tbsp flax seed oil.
Drank almost 2 gallons of water today. I dont usually drink that much but i was really thisty on this diet. is that normal? And did this follow a standard noob keto diet?

yes as long as you piss it out. You don't want any water poisoning.

Im thinking of dropping some fat intake and adding some protien, kinda like the way the Palumbo keto diet looks. Will I lose fat slower? Will I lose strength?

Depending on how much protein it could knock you out of ketosis.
Protein produces about 58% glucose.

**gleesamo** · 08-03-2009, 08:59 PM

Carb-up is really not in a direct relationship with how many days you are in keto it is a direct relationship of how much you depleted your muscle glycogens. That is what the carb-up does, it refeeds your muscles.

**gleesamo** · 08-06-2009, 04:33 PM
