I feel like shit-but "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels"

[smoothasf]

I'll tell you what I just weighed at exactly 80Kgs dead. I haven't lifted weights in years and I look like shit but I want to get down to 70Kgs.  I'll race you there.? I was hit by a van and have got in aweful shape was 13'7 and fat as hell the beginning of january.  12'7 today.  A little competition helps sometime.

True.

Only drawbacks are:
1) Little to no strength to do lighter than 15 reps, or more than a few sets per exercise.
2) Insomnia
3) Perpetual hunger

But other than that, yeah. They work. Only thing is you have to be careful to transition quickly back to carbs without overdieting on them for too long.

Yes that is all true as well:  However there is an exception.  High fat- fuels workouts and kills hunger cravings.

The problem is when people eat low to no carbs for 5 days and then have a cheat meal or cheat day.  Since it takes the body roughly 2 days to get back in a fat burning mode you've really only ate low carbs for 3 days.  Do this for months on end and you won't lose a thing and that's where people trip up.

I literally didn't close an eye for 6 days straight last week when I tried going Keto again. Granted, I did it hardcore with less than 1200kcal/day (wasn't hungry) and like 5 carbs, but shit man. I did not fucking sleep. I was a zombie. And I ended up taking beta-blockers from an old guy down the street because my heart wouldn't drop below 100/min. Did lose 9lbs of water in a week though.

Pretty much why I say if you're doing low carb, do it strict for 1-2 months (longer is unlikely to work out psychologically) and then see whether you're ready to use carbs again and do cardio to compensate for the extra calories/water.

[Nicademus]

Agreed.

[smoothasf]

Your carrying more muscle than me you'll look better if you get  the weight off. When I hit 70Kgs I'll celebrate with some way overdue tren and test

I AGREE 100%

[smoothasf]

Grow some balls and do what you want to do.

[TrueGrit]

Oh wow, not far from me at all.

So your a Londoner too or used to live in London?

Always assumed you were from the states for some reason.

Peace

I'm really a Manc but lived down South since a kid. Used to live in Richmond - the Hampstead of South London.

[TrueGrit]

Ha, cool, City or United?

My cousins and uncle live up in Manchester, ain't been up there in ages.

Richmond is beautiful and green.

United. Spurs or arsenal?

[King Shizzo]

United. Spurs or arsenal?

I'm calling the U.N.  This is clearly code for a terrorist plot.

I think he's a Gooner.

[SuperTed]

United. Spurs or arsenal?

Yeah, he's a Gunner like me.
Probably feeling a little depressed after the Munich game. 

[King Shizzo]

I think he's a Gooner.

I will be watching the world cup (even non fans in America get interested)

Who do you think will take it? Who would you like to take it?

Maybe the Americans can actually win 2 or 3 games this cup  

[TrueGrit]

Bad luck, Gooners. Fucking Ozil.

Shizzo, I think Brazil,Spain or Argentina will win it. Not sure I care which team wins it. I never really feel much love for England - too many tribal rivalries.

[bigmc]

Yes bigmc and the worst part is you feel like shit the next day and workouts end up sucking.
