Ketogenic Diet

[Two Gun Bob]

No worries mate. I think it's a pretty nice drink, pretty salty like, but I like that.

I'm just about to drink a small tub of double cream too. Mmmm.

That's 470 cal per 100ml and an average small tub is 300ml. Not telling you how to suck eggs blue but that's a shed load of fuel for one slurp.

It sure is. Lovely stuff loaded with fat.

I don't calorie count on keto mate. I used to drink one daily for the fat content for months, but once I'd lost 3 stone I was pretty much bored of having it, but thought I'd try one again today, and really enjoyed it.

I also stopped putting it in my coffee and swapped it for butter instead.

I've brought some MCT oil,what's the best thing to do with it?

Start with no more than a teaspoon in your coffee or you’ll get the shits. Believe me I know..

Will the Ketogenic diet interfere with Elvanse/Vyvanse, the medication I take for ADHD?

I wouldn't think any diet would interfere with it lovely,just other medication

I thought you were a Doctor ?

Thanks.

It was a rather stupid question to ask as it’s a pro drug, which has to be metabolised to become an active medication. I just read somewhere that a diet rich in fat can affect how it’s absorbed.

Upon reflection, a simple solution would be to avoid anything too fatty at around the time I take the med.

Leave a couple of hours before and after and it should be fine,i'll google it for you and see

That’s most kind of you but there’s really no need.

I hope you continue to have good results on the Ketogenic diet.

I have looked on the Nice site,no mention of food being a prob,in fact they say take it with yogurt

So, this week I bought a batch of empty 000 sized capsules to fill with Himalayan salt. I ground down the salt to fill the capsules.

I've recently felt quite a lull in my legs riding to and from work so thought I mustn't be having enough sodium.

Within a couple of days of popping these capsules I feel much better. I pounded it in to work this morning and feel great,

So just a tip for anyone who didn't know, if you feel a bit fatigued on keto, maybe increase your sodium intake. It's worked for me.

I'm getting blurred vision,anyone else get that?

I fancy trying this diet for a variety of reasons. However, I do a lot of hiit workouts , 3-5 days a week. Can anybody confirm if this diet is good with these regular hiit workouts??

You'll feel a performance drop for the first month or so. May be worth taking a few weeks off training when you initially start the diet.

Then after around 6 weeks you'll have lost a ton of weight and feel great within your workouts. You'll probably get to the stage where you have to eat massive portions to get the calories in, or add more cream or cheese etc. I've lost that much weight on keto that I've introduced carb cycling to my diet once or twice a week, just to keep my weight up.

Thanks Dozzie, sounds great. I just hate the idea of missing training for a couple of weeks, not been to the gym for nearly 3 weeeks as it is due to being on holidays.! Maybe just do weights for a couple of weeks, then gradually re introduce hiit??

I am on the keto diet and do hiit training mate, I was expecting a drop in performance but it never came. I put it down to making sure I got enough greens and electrolytes in my system.
Obviously we are all different and react in different ways but just give it a go and see how you feel. Good luck.

I'm worried my eyes have gone blurry,i've broken keto with some bread and i've some electrolyte tabs coming later and i'll see if that makes a difference,i'll try and get into the optician as well,anyone else had this happen?
