My bad it's the low carb diet... I get agitated. In real life I'm tamed, at least in cyber world I can be a thug sometimes. Lol
Thug? Keyboard warriors are not thugs.
If you get agitation from a low carb diet then it could mean you have chemical imbalances from the low carb diet. Neurotransmitters are a bitch sometimes.
If you're doing the "bro keto" aka lots of protein low carb and just enough fat then you will probably run into these issues.
This is from the bad relationship your body has with gluconeogenesis. The process in which your body converts amino acids into glucose.
Most people Handle this poorly because it's an inefficient process which creates a ton of waste and does some interesting chemical changes.
This is why glucose and triglycerides are a preferred energy source.
If you're doing correct keto (high fat ,moderate protein and low to no carbs) you shouldn't have this problem unless
1. You are hitting above 5 to 10% carbs
2. You have your gal bladder removed
3. You drink heavily or moderately which can effect your liver which is heavily involved in true keto diets
4. You're restrictions on calories is too low.
True keto is most often preferred in contest prep due to the satisfaction and macro to micro ratio being "the bees knees"
The more you know.
Also. I've been following closely OP. my advice is to reverse diet,get off of the ec, then go back to dieting.
Take a period of 12 to 16 weeks. Diet slow. Only decrease calories when fatloss (not scale weight often enough ) stalls.
Increase cardio to 4x a week of medium intensity cardio the last 4 weeks.
The last 9 weeks go back on ec for 6 weeks and you should be shredded. You will take those last 3 weeks to solidify the fat loss and blunt the ec "rebound" ..
Only then...increase calories but only 100 to 200 each week.
My guide to shreds.
Oh and...*drops mic* that's being a thug. Getting results son!
