Cancer cells feed off glucose (carbohydrates) and using ketones as energy rather than glucose starve off cancer cells or any non healthy cells. It's almost as if we were meant to eat this way. Also our hormones run off cholesterol so without it we wouldn't be healthy.

I know what you mean by people eating carbs in your face. My parents eat white rice, beans, bread while I do keto during the week. Its tough. Tomorrow I have to fast and do cardio to burn out my glycogen I built up these past 2 days. Its not gonna be fun. But you have to do things you wouldn't do before, find strength in…

Sunday-Thurday keto. Weekend loading. I don't track everyday just when I need to know how I been eating and if my calories are too low (usually I have that problem) Add me (:

I think it depends if you're bodybuilding or not. I'd say 50 is fine if you are not. 80 if u are. I'm trying 100 a day since I'm bodybuilding. I'll see what happens, if anything I'd go with my lean body mass protein intake
-
Thats good ! Age does not determine how we feel. Youth can be eternal (: Thank you for helping me ! I'll see what happens when I increase my calories again. A big chunk was lost when carbs went. Haven't adapted my foods. I don't really do cheese, except in pizza & burgers. I don't care for cheese but I must have it on…

Yeah I do work out around 3-4 times a week. I noticed my workouts aren't as good, lower energy. I still haven't actually bought all my keto food, I'm missing sausage, bacon, prosciutto, butter, coconut flour and flax seeds (for pancakes) and coconut butter. This payday I'm actually gonna go to whole foods and buy those…

Jajaj I can't get new friends. These are the best i'll ever have, they're good friends, okay, they made mistakes but really they're good friends. We just live the typical 20 year old lifestyle in the weekends. Last weekend I ate pizza, I was looking lean but then the morning came. My face had inflamation, I wasn't as lean…

According to Stephanie Person in YouTube, who's been doing keto for 6 years and looks amazing at 48, she says that too much protein will kick you out of ketosis. For me I dont think I need more than 100g of protein but I dont really know. Keto puts u in a constant anabolic state, so if im not wrong, that would mean that…

@JusPrettyMe I would add more healthy fats and lower ur carbs. Virgin olive oil, coconut oil, nuts, avocados, hemp seeds, chia seeds, flax seeds

I think you are doing great. Build muscle with a weight training program. Building muscle will increase your metabolism. Increase your activity levels. Perhaps when you are eating salads, reduce the dressings. Eat fish, little to no red meat late in the day (I think its fine for breakfast), nuts, you can add avocados. You…

If you are over 20% body fat I'd stick with lean body mass protein intake. So you are 180-185, but lean (without calculating fat) let's say you are 160. So take 160. I'm 168, and I hover around 150-170 protein each day.

Yeah don't look listen to people saying its not possible. Sure breasts are fat but there's muscle under them that can give a slight lift. Also contrary to popular belief, wearing a bra is actually detrimental if u want perkiness. Think about it. The bra is just support, not wearing one will strengthen whatever is suppose…
-
I would have to say yes. You'd need to focus on the decline dumbbell press (barbell too), dumbbell flys (cables too). Incline and flat bench presses but I think the first 2 I mentioned would make the biggest difference. Focus on the muscle. Mind muscle connection. Go heavy, 4 sets of 8-10 for each exercise. U can do 3…

Send me a request, hoping to have enough friends here to actually begin being social here.

When I stop working out I actually loose weight but my muscles get all saggy. This journey is not about losing weight. Its about developing will power, discipline and perseverance. Its about health. Losing weight is a bonus !

The scale is a liar.

I've only made few friends. Feel free to add me

@CaliforniaRower Hey I been at this for 3 years. I started skinny now I got some mass on me, doing w.e not counting anything. This year and the next ones am I serious about the quality of my nutrition but of course we are not perfect. I want to get to at least 10% body fat. I think I'm at 15-18, 170 lbs Anyways, I had…

I came here to see what people had to say. I suffered from shin splints for at least 6 months. I was doing MMA at the time, walking everywhere. I completely made the situation much worse by working thru the pain, it hurt to even walk. I finally ended up getting a knee injury that forced me off any sports for 6 months. Now…

Hey I'm in Miami Beach !

I'm on 1800-2000, 30 carbs, 35 protein, 35 fats.

U need to struggle to get to 10 reps, the last couple reps should be hard. 4 sets of 8-10 reps for all ur exercises. The 8 lbs is fine for lateral shoulder rises and ur rear delt exercise. The rest need to go higher or you'll be wasting ur time @brittjrogg

I love my fernet branca with coke (:

Pasta w vodka sauce, a biiig plate. Or a pan pizza from pizza hut w barbeque chicken

I'm your height and I weigh 170. I eat about 1800-2000. Find your lean body mass and that should be your protein intake. A lil more is fine but nothing over 150. Get ur healthy fats, about 60-80g and the rest r carbs. I believe u should be eating at least 1600-1800. I been where u are and its stressful because it gets to a…

Yes the quality of macros matter when it comes to fueling your body. We're not talking about whether OP met her macros or not. She asked if it was okay to have chocolate, I think its fine once a week but it doesn't have great quality macros for fuel. @arditarose

I have those little caloric days on weekends where I don't meet my 1900-2000 goal. There was a time when I'd eat 500-800 calories a day for a month. It was horrible, my metabolism crashed and it made it impossible to cut fat since I was already low and working out.
-
Its not great to get ur calories from those type of foods because the quality of the macros r not the greatest.

Feel free to add me. I work out 4-6 times a week and my diet has been on point lately. My goal is to shed body fat while keeping my muscle. That dreaded spare tire by the belly has reduced, need more progress. I have not lost more than half a pound. I believe is cause my muscle has been intact.
