any type of berries would be good to go. Gotta love berry season :smile: :happy:

Having Banana Pancakes would probably take you out of ketosis for the day unless it was the only thing you eat for the day. Bananas are high in carbs and being in ketosis means you arent consuming more then about 25g of carbs a day ( depending on the person). I think you have your wires crossed on the intention of this…

Yeah absoutly, but Fructose turns straigt into fatty acids too, so wouldnt it make sense to cut that out then?

Having you tried cutting sugar out of your diet instead of fat or good fats? I’m not a health professional but I’ve been doing a lot of research lately about the “Fat Free” vs “Sugar free” theories and this is what i have concluded. Our bodies are designed to metabolise fat, carbs and protein. We have an internal calorie…

For the running part, download the C25K (Couch to 5k) App or google it to learn how to run

Im 5'9 and 158lbs. i average 200 calories per work out with all levels according to my HRM watch

I have a Mio wrist watch one and i think its great ! unfortunately cant help with the chest strap though :ohwell: sorry

congratulations ! You look great!! Can i ask how tall you are? your final weight isnt far off what i am now and you look so much smaller than me! lol

I have same fear, i weighed myself this morning after avoiding it for 2 weeks. i had put on 2lbs! I then went and measured my self and have lost a total of 2inches. so i know its just muscle weight. to be honest i was expecting a gain because i started the 30 day shred so am working more muscle groups. just measure…

I use my heart rate monitor - for the 25 minutes its usually between 210 and 230 depending on how hard i push myself. My stats are 23.y.o 160lb 5'9" 62 bpm resting. so obviously if your stats are different than so will your calorie output. best way so gauge is to buy a HRM.

Please read this blog, it helped me understand the weight gain ( a few weeks late) so much and totally makes sense ! http://www.dailyspark.com/blog.asp?post=why_the_scale_goes_up_when_you_start_a_new_workout_plan

i do it once a day and even that drives me crazy. I too am declaring to only weigh in on Mondays ! :drinker:

Its very common to gain 4-5 pound when you start a new/ different work out. This is caused by the muscles getting microscopic tears and therefor retaining water to help heal them. This usually last about 2 weeks. Once the muscles have repaired themselves and are used to the workout, the water will drop. You'll probably…
