Does it help to have dinner a smaller meal compared to other meals or it doesnt matter for keto diet?

I have a question about working out while on ketosis. As before mentioned that fat energy is not as quick as carbs for workout and when i searched on the web the opinions about whether eating carbs before workout is mixed. Is there anything i should be taking (energy drinks?) before or after workout? i usually bring with…

Yeah i read about protein too being too high is bad too. But i did use 70% fat which is 5% more than the suggested 65% no? I guess i could step it up and eat more fatty foods... i saw the pie chart next to my nutrition and my protein is more or less +/- 5% while the rest inc/dec comes from fat.

Great post! I actually tried medifast and i lost some but the meals wrre boring and i couldnt take it anymore. I am still bit new to mfp so it might not look good now...not sure what pie chart you are taling about though... i really love the food flexibility in keto and i dont miss carb that much except maybe ramen and…

What other little things do you guys watch out for? Like sugar substitutes a no no? I used to use splenda for tea etc. I am trying to quit soda and have switched to sparkling flavored beverages (vita zero etc.) and am curious if those artificial stuff affects the diet in any way? I will definitely be watching out for bad…

Thanks or the feedback! I am getting enough fat per day... and it has been slightly exceeding my allotment while protein is still under. I eat the nuts to help the fat stay up - i have never been a "pure fat" guy with butter and bacon and such but i do use avocado and others to fill it up. As for fiber i do take fiber…

I checked my BRM and it is 2456. I use fitbit everyday and my past month's average burn is 3400. I noticed myfitnesspal estimates 2,760 burned a day with my setting on sedantry (i have office job..) but differs from the 1.2 * BMR formula... so in pure number form: Total calorie deficit = 3400-1100 = 2300??? is that right?…

thanks for the informative post! I dont have hunger pangs BUT yesterday i did "cheat" out of my 1100 plan by 50 calories by eating a few more macadamia nuts than i had calculated... I have never been a breakfast person and currently my breakfast is just a boiled egg at work and i have the beforementioned 400/400 breakdown…

are you moving your arms while walking? not sure if it matters but fitbit FAQ does say they count arm moving as "exercise" too so lets say if you do jumping jacks it will count both your steps and your arms motion. I dont know what spin class is but were you always active during that class - there's no time that you are…

Dont be terrified...i am very over weight and i am usually the top 3 "stand out" overweight people in the fitness classes but you know what- it doesn't really matter once you start exercising. I felt that if i am that uncomfortable having people look at me in the gym i would be even more so outside since there's even more…
