Keto is a trip, eh? Good luck on your journey! I remember looking at my pictures in the same time period last year. I went from swollen tomato to normally fat jolly-cheeked person.

I loved the idea of Slimfast Keto when I first saw it a year or so ago. But after trying it.. it's not for me. It's hard to hit any reasonable ketogenic carb goals with it. It's big on "net" carbs. Some of the sweeteners/fillers used give me blood pressure issues. Add to that, it's not cheap. If I need something sweet or…

66.9km | 41.57 miles | 02:24:33 I am exhausted. Lots of achievement beeps on the bike today. Bike for some reason defaulted to XX.9 after 38km on goals, so everything above that was XX.9, hence 66.9 and not 67.

Did you read what you linked? It's literally going into detail on what I've been talking about where diet does matter.. Riding on glucose vs ketones is a different beast. Boinking as it's called is a thing you're gonna get, especially if you're diet is low carb or ketogenic as mine is, but you have enough carbs in your…

No, it's riding on carbs or riding ketogenic. Not a rest day issue, it's a difference in what's fueling me during a ride. I can rest for a year and carb exhaustion is still gonna be an issue at 33km.

33km | 66:11 I don't know how many more of these rides I have. Just such a long time to ride, especially day after day. Getting tired of being so tired during a ride. Without carbs, it's a slog.. with carbs it's a slog unless I load up before or during. Neither of which I enjoy doing. I might just scale back down to my 30…

Former Eugene/Springfield resident here as well. The PNW is beautiful, but that weather is not for everyone, myself included. I missed the sun and the heat before I moved back home to the South. It's on my places of "no thanks, I'm good" from October through March. Anywho, another day, another 33km done. 33km | 67:45

33km | 69:20 zero energy until the last 8km. Was out of coffee and pre-workout. Couldn't get into anything to distract myself. Those are the worst sorts of rides. Regardless, ride finished.

71:55 : 33km Missed yesterday as I was re-tightening my pedals, I got up and my ankle felt wrong. I don't take risks like that, so called the night off. Ankle felt better an hour later, but not worth a risk. I know I'm pushing it doing so many miles so many days in a row. Feeling great though.

33km | 68:03

33km | 65:07 I hit a wall hard at 26km. Had no energy at all. I didn't get a second wind until 31km in. I wonder if I was low on salt or just exhausted all carbs by that point. I chugged down my second litre of ketorade and felt fighting fit again at 31km in. Could have kept going another 10km at that point. 33km is good…

10 miles //-\\ 30:48 I think I've biked for a week straight now? I dunno, everyday for a while. Gonna keep on with 10 miles and see if I can make it a habit again.

10 miles //-\\ 31:39 I dunno how many days in a row this is, not that it matters. Waking up, biking, and moving on with the day is working again.

Past two days have been 10/30s on the bike. About to start another bike session. Noooo energy atm. Need caff and half an hour of pedaling.

5.5+ miles and near 4 hours mowing the lawn starting a little after 6 as my workout today. Might do core work this afternoon.

Had some DOMS yesterday. Decided not to bike once I finished my core work as who needs to risk an injury. Stretches 16 Sit-ups 16 Push-ups 16 Squats

Workout Today: Stretches 15 Squats 15 Push-ups 15 Sit-ups 10 Miles Biked 15 Squats

Thanks to everyone for the well wishes! A year makes a big difference for sure. Hopefully I'll be back here in 363 more days. :smiley:

Day 002: Stretches 10 Squats 10 Push-ups 10 Crunches 10 Miles Biking @ 31:30 Good luck to everyone on their workout/health goals!

I hate dealing with death. June was a bust but I held on as best I could and just went to my fallback of logging in, logging what I could, and logging my weight each day. Back to it today. Biking 10 miles @ 31:53 10 Pushups 10 Squats Today is also my 1 Year Anniversary of joining MFP. Back down to only 100.2lbs lost, but…

146 minutes mowing lawn - manual w/ assists off. Going to try and get a core workout in. Still feeling some soreness from the other day. Might end up doing a good stretching session.

Real Good Pizza Co has a few different cauliflower crust pizzas that are awesome. Total pie isn't overly large, like medium Pizza Hut sized, but the entire thing is 30 something carbs. Toss on some extra meats, a swirl of ranch and sriracha, and it makes keto doable long term. https://www.realgoodfoods.com/ They also do…
