You are right. My gym exercises have incorporated more weights. Mostly machines but heavier weights. I do get DOMS. Guess I just need to be patient. I have 1 other question: What should I focus on more? Cardio or strength training?
-
Thank you so much for your response. I have been gymming and managing weight for a few years. My lowest weight ever was 58kg a few years ago but it was not sustainable. I put on weight last year due to work, kids, fitting it all in. This time I started in Sept 2023 and starting weight was 73kg. I have tried to restrict…

I am taking thyroxine but I am in the process of dose adjustment.
-
My expectation is that working my muscles will result in more fat burn.
-
I can try Pilates. Does it burn enough calories though?
-
Thank you. Should I be changing the exercises too?
-
It is not allowing me to edit the sheet

Hi, I m a full time working mum of 2 toddlers. I started keto on 13th June. I don't have time to cook fancy stuff for myself and rely on simple stuff. I would love to be added to the spreadsheet. It will keep me accountable. Also if anyone would like share their diaries, my diary is open
-
Thank you so much everyone. I just sometimes doubt if I am doing this correctly. I will continue and just have some patience
-
This is exactly why on keto I prefer to use carb manager. It does the calculation for you
-
If I get to a point that I can do more reps I increase the weight. I started with only the barbell, then added 2.5kg each side, now 5kg each side. I do the 5 rounds in 30 mins so it is quite intense. Can't have more than a min or so rest between sets. I love strength training. The only cardio I do is elliptical :smiley: By…

I am just doing it because my trainer at the gym gave me this program. Can you suggest a lifting program? Thanks
-
I am trying it for the first time. I have a sedentary job and work out about 2.5 hours per week. The initial weight loss was water weight. I have not lost any weight for the last 2 weeks but have lost inches. The best part is that it keeps me full. I eat food that I enjoy and it has helped me kick my sugar habit. I was a…

Thanks you so much for responding. So I used to be more tired in week 2 -3. It is a lot better now. I have hypothyroidism. So I tend to feel cold especially after my meals but hot before. Hair growth seems normal. I didn't measure but I have definitely lost inches from my waist. I am fitting in clothes I couldn't fit in…

Hey, thanks for helping me out. Here is some additional info. I started keto/IF on 13th June. I lost 2.5kg until end of June. Since then my weight has not shifted. My 5 gym sessions were in the last 10 days. This is the program. I use a barbell with weights. Barbell rack: military press X 5, squats X6, row x7, deadlift X…

So I have started logging in FP. I can't seem to calculate exercise calories. But the rest is accurate. Measured on kitchen scales.
-
Hi, I have just opened mine. I am on keto and IF though
-
Really good advice. Thanks. I usually use carb manager but I am opening my diary and logging in FP too now. I m also going to weigh everything.
-
Thank you but eating back exercise calories doesn't work for me. I m anyways not losing weight. If I eat my exercise calories my weight goes up. According to my trainer, I cannot afford to eat more than 1200kcal anyway.
-
151cm, 62kg, I m sticking to 1000kcal, intermittent fasting, almost 4 weeks on keto
-
That's interesting. Are you still managing to lose weight? I am doing keto plus IF and trying to stay within my calorie allowance which is probably why I am finding myself running out of energy.
-
I love this idea. I am doing keto and intermittent fasting. Instead of 2 big meals I will try and break it down and see if it works 😊
-
Hi, I have just started keto. This is week 2. I am doing it to shed off my 'covid weight gain' and can't find time to exercise. I would love some support. Could you please add me? Thank you
-
05/25 65kg. No change at all but wondering if I should be happy for not finishing the weekend with weight gain
-
05/22. Still 66kg awww...the scales are not budging. I think I just need to be patient.
-
Did not weigh today. I didn't have the courage to face another disappointment. But stuck to calorie goal. Did fitness blender abs work out, but and thigh workout
-
5/18 65kg 5/20 66kg I am assuming it is water retention because I have been exercising and staying with calorie allowance. I ll stick it out and see what happens
-
05/19 fitness blender 45 min hiit work out. Looking forward to tomorrow's weigh in ;)

Hello everyone, after battling obesity I got down from 95kg to 58kg. Weight training in the Gym was a major factor in the weight loss. After moving countries, managing kids, no gym and lock down, I am up to 65kg. This trend needs to reverse. So here I am starting afresh. Along with eating, I want to do some exercise as I…
