Well I love eating slabs of meat too, but I do enjoy variety. Especially running keto for 12 weeks. If I see good results, Im going back to paleo for 4 weeks after it, then repeating everything (prolly not the anabolics that'd be like a 8 month cycle lol)
I can do without the corn, carrots, potatoes, etc. Glad I can still have limited amounts of onions, spinach, broccoli, etc. The fiber definitely goes a long way on keto. I remember the last time I ran keto I had almost no vegetables and it was hard to sh1t lol..... This time around I'm playing it a little smarter.
So I did some research and you're not supposed to have turkey bacon. I love turkey bacon and have probably about 10 lbs at the house in the freezer (didn't eat it on paleo because i only ate unprocessed foods) but I'm gonna "modify" the diet and have turkey bacon damn it.
I also invested in some egg whites and have been adding 15-18 grams of protein to my shakes. I only have two shakes daily, I don't like to do more than 80-100 grams from whey. I am drinking no sugar added almond milk, which is rich in healthy fats, and delicious, and almost feels like a cheat meal when I make protein shakes with it.
I added yet another stim today... And almost threw up when it all hit me.. I had a bottle of Cellucor's D4 Thermal Shock laying around from almost a year ago. I thought all cellucor products were trash but I guess not this one.... I am so stimmed out I almost threw up haha.. But now im leveling out and just very very wired.
BP is fine, even with a little bit of higher sodium from foods on this diet. I already feel like the "flu" has passed, I may be in full keto as of now, but its only been 3 days so there is no telling. Keto strips aren't necessarily a great indicator of ketosis because if you are dehydrated, your strips will show darker purple, and even if you're in full blown keto and keep flushing your system with water, the strip may show a lighter color. So it has to do with not only your water intake but the amount of ketones in your urine. And if you don't have excess ketones because you're using them all, then a strip won't be much help. I think they're more of a guide, but still a good cheap investment lol.
Im taking today off, I did some cardio with my dog this morning. Slammed some BCAAs (25g) pre cardio and a shake right after. Followed by 8 eggs (3 whites) and a hint of pepper jack cheese with some sausage lol (yet another processed food) lol...
I love fish too, Unreal. Not so much Salmon, as I don't like gamier fish, but I love things like Mahi, Red Snapper, Ahi, flounder, Halibut.... And I have a whole set of spices when I'm cooking them...
Anyway yall I got some recipes off the net, and I think maybe one off the site but if anyone can help me out and post some recipes then I would appreciate it
