Does it really matter if I'm at 20 net carbs, or 25 net carbs, or 30 net carbs, when i am still showing as being in Ketosis? (honest question, not sarcasm) I weigh my food on a digital scale, always to the gram (never ounces, never use cups/spoons except for oil) I appreciate the advice, though I'm not sure that cardio is…

Have you tried eating more FAT before your workout? I do a bulletproof coffee every single morning before i train (crossfit/olympic lifting) and i started hitting PRs from the first day i did that. I think the MCT oil (medium chain triglycerides) is the key though-- the really fast digesting fat

I'm sorry for your loss, and around the holidays makes it even more difficult. My first thought is that crossfit would help to stimulate your appetite, and help you sleep better. Not top mention help you re-establish that sense of normalcy. I have a tendency to OVERdo my distractions, so i dont have to deal...

Didnt say fit people didn't live in Boulder, and i also didnt say everyone was a stoner. However, Boulder does, statistically have the highest per capita pot smoker rate in the country (or they did in recent years). Also, I'm sure you know stoners, you might just not KNOW they are stoners...... ;)

I think you mean land of the most stoned.... ;) I think Co Springs is more "fit"

Is it possible its TOM related? Some women have increased breast size/tenderness when they ovulate and/or before during menstruation.....

I also do a 5 am WOD (out the door by 4:30)... for the past 5+ years I've been a die hard fasted-state kinda workout gal. Ran on empty stomach, lifted, crossfit, etc. Thought I preferred it. The issue was never about having a full stomach (tummy of steel here-- I could literally eat pancakes WHILE running a marathon, lol).…

What was your activity and food intake like 9-10 months ago when your period went on the fritz? If thats approx when you started exercising/dieting or losing weight it could very possibly be a hypothalamic amenorrhea ( a stressed induced loss of period that will likely trouble you the rest of your life) Again, as everyone…

How much dairy were you eating? and what kinds? I'm kinda in the same boat....its been almost a month with no real significant weight loss on the scale. Lose 3 gain 2.7, kinda thing. Been steadily in Ketosis (per KetoStix) for 3+ weeks. I have a lot of weight to lose, and entered into keto in a fed/rested state…

[/quote] Thats why I suggested it if she was going to ski on the week DAYS. They're going to be in CO for a week, after all. No reason to go up to the resorts on a weekend

Why don't you just stay in Denver then? None of the I-70 resorts are more than 1.5 hours away (except Vail/Aspen) especially if you go on weekdays... Cheaper to stay in Denver, plus you'll have more access to ALL of the amenities that CO offers.....a nightlife in Downtown Denver, 30 minutes to Boulder. An hour to Colorado…

The answer was in the original post, but everyone has glossed over it.... The OP quit smoking recently (I'm assuming cigarettes) There's the six pounds. easy. Irregardless of a change in food intake, when someone quits smoking, seeing as nicotine is a diuretic, they will pretty put on water weight. That is the water weight…

This seems glaringly obvious, to me at least. You successfully lost over 100 pounds,during which time you logged your food consistently. Then, you stopped logging because you are confident that eat more or less the same ish every day. And then you stopped losing weight (instead, fluctuating the same few pounds, which ARE…

Seriously, no one is going to suggest a hook grip?
