Fatloss cycle 1 - Week 5

Height = 5'8.5"
Weighed = 89.6kg (+2.7 )    Macrofactor app trend weight - 87.8kg (+0.2)
Waist = 35 1/8 inches (-0.25)
Hip = 41.5 (+1/8) 
Upper thigh = 26 3/8 (+0.25) 

Total loss so far - weight  +0.9kg  Waist -1.25 inch 

All that water weight increase from adding in carbs...
Whole body has blown up as well.

Animal based diet - averaged 2623 calories for the week - 219g protein, 157g fat, 77g carbs

Changed up diet 2 days ago, so numbers no accurately reflecting changes yet
Calories are higher, so if fat/waist loss holds steady then my TDEE has increased from diet change.
Mainly carbs boosting thyroid and hormones back up

Did notice slightly better energy and mood from diet change today
And more stable blood sugar.
Blood sugar tends to start dropping low around this session time on carnivore
And I sometimes get blood sugar drops after I start eating, none so far since diet change.

Friday 10th May 2024

Fairly sore all over

Ate more carbs at night - fruit and honey, and my hunger was triggered severly!


complete rest day - didn't feel like doing anything


Saturday 11th May 2024

Lower body and posterior chain still achey and bruised feeling, but upper body is OK

Just ravenous today.
All I did was add some carbs onto my normal carnivore meals which keep me full for 8-12 hours, and I was hungry within 2 hours.
Guess my body is just crying for nutrients after 11+ months of low carbs (6+ keto, 5 carnivore).
And without ketosis masking my true hunger.

Smashed out 3500 calories - 226g protein, 212g fat, 182g carbs - and might eat even more before the day is over...
Recently has been around 1800-2800 calories

I'll be using the lower end of these macros for a test - https://www.paulsaladinomd.co/ab-guide#calculator

I don't like this lazy lethargic feeling, even though all the carbs are from apples, honey, avocado and cucumbers.
But I need the insulin spikes for the kidney, as I was no longer holding onto electrolytes after 5 months of ketosis on Carnivore.
Which caused all kinds of dry mouth and thirst, despite downing lots of salt/potassium/magnesium solutions

Poops have gone from once every 2-3 days, small one, to twice a day, and bigger ones already!  :o

And bodyweight has spiked up from the glycogen...
It should help my strength and muscle gain a bit

I'll try and keep things as before, and move all the carbs till post training and later in the day

----
Peroneal/sartorius external foot rotation ISO against floor/step: 3x33 secs

- run 54:04, 9.77 km
little discomfort in left knee and right big toe. the toe pain makes sense, although it's the first time in a while i've tweaked that one. not sure what the knee is about. seems fine now. warm but not hot today, took it easy.
