So after getting from 300lbs down to about 220 I needed a break from full time keto. I ate clean for a few weeks while keeping the carbs pretty low but restoring my sanity and got down to 210 after a while.
Age:26
Height: 5'9
Weight: 211ish
BF%: (probably inaccurate) +/- 26%
But now it's time to get serious again and get down to under 10% BF and be strong again. After reading everything about the cyclical keto diet, it looks like I would really mentally benefit from it, and since now I am going to begin to build muscle again, a better option.
My question is about my carb up days. I am a little nervous about spiking my insulin after all this time at super low or low carb. Am I going to need to ease into it or can I go have some pancakes in the morning. Because I could really go for some pancakes.
Second is quickly getting back into ketosis. I am a big fan of the UR spray and was looking at some of the other prototype products that may aid in helping get back in quickly instead of eating zero carbs, because I feel like **** if I don't eat some vegetables. Is this the best option?
I will do whatever is necessary to reach my goals, even if going 24/7 keto with no carb up is necessary. I've come this far and it was brutal, so I'll do what it takes. I just would love some opinions on where to go from here. Supplements, food intake, anything I can get.
