As I was reading some of the pages you posted about keto, it seems as though you condone diet sodas and flavored drinks. I don't often drink them, but sometimes I like to drink one during a workout because I like the carbonation. Or like adding a propel powder flavoring packet to my water. Would it make that big of a difference or shouldvi really stick to Judy water for the next month?

The problem is citric acid. For SOME people it can actually throw them out of ketosis.

I would stick to JUST water for now.

Hey raynor


I have an odd reaction sometimes

when i wake up and im really hungover, ill go drink some water and fall back onto my bed and i will start to get the sweats pretty bad

99% sure its the water making this happen, not because of the excercise it took to walk and get / drink some water




whats going on here

Assuming you have drank to the point of being hungover, this means your body is attempting to purge itself of remaining alcohol. In doing so, the body can sweat profusely, unless you are dehydrated. Drinking water rehydrates you and thus enables sweating to continue. I highly suggest you rehydrate if you are going to drink to excess.


edit:

Higher body temperature after drinking excessively is not uncommon either.

wow so i could be so dehydrated that ive stopped sweating, then as soon as i have some water in me i sweat it out?

i do live in the farking desert tho so its always hot

Yes that is correct, and it's quite dangerous as well. You should be drinking plenty of water with your alcoholic beverages to prevent dehydration and reduce hangover symptoms.

I don't know what to eat.

I'm a student so i'm short on money.

Is it possible to increase muscle mass from mostly a high fat/protein diet/low carb?

Or do you need more than 100g carbs / day for muscle.

I exercise about 6 day a week and eat about 1400-1900 calories. Im never out of energy because i eat a wholesome diet.

I can't eat solid foods upon rising so I have shakes... this is how it GENERALLY looks like.

8:am - Protein shake from VEGA, with added fish oil, alfalfa, chlorella, spirulina and other greens.
11am - apple with handful of raspberries
1pm - lentil soup with vegetable or split pea soup with vegetable and an avocado
5pm - 90% dark chocolate with almond butter
6:30-7pm- goat protein with again spirulina and other greens
8:30-9pm - a small dinner, maybe 2 eggs and a sprouted grain bagel ( half )
11pm - my bedtime shake consisting of VEGA protein mixed with a bit of whey and again added spirulina and other greens,

As you can see, i'm getting all the required vit and minerals and nutrients without having to go high calories. Usually this is about 1500-1900 calories. I never felt better.
I still have a few pounds before I have a chiseled stomach.. though my stomach is flat and has very visible contour lines, between my abs is probably a bit stubborn

I don;t think I can drop anymore calories LOL, but i do maybe wish to put on a bit more size, but how would I reduce those last few pounds with this diet?

Hey raynor.

I was thinkin of gettin creatine for the first time ever.

i was interested in knowing the benefits and dangers of it.

as well as how much/how to use it.


do I just use 1 scoop a day and put it into water like a whey shake and stir it?

or do i take more? the bodybuilding.com sit says that u take with each meal for "creatine loading"
