Day 2 of a planned 2 days of eating
Day 10 of 14 days of the "Challenge" with @SharonsVictory: No 'Binging' (more than 100 carbs) for two weeks
I did a 🏃🏾♂️ 5 mile run yesterday and kept my carbs below 100g. However, my protein was over 130g. I think if I kept them both below 100g I would not have had a gain.
Now, I am reducing my calories, however, I still had a MASSIVE calorie deficit (a 5 mile run in 90 degree heat at 8-9 minutes a mile will burn some calories), so this is further evidence that calories do not make me gain weight, macro nutrients do. No, I don’t believe it is all a gain in fat, it is certainly mostly a gain in water, but that water is related to glycogen.
When glucose goes up, glycogen goes up, and water goes up, and weight goes up.
For me, a person who is not Keto adapted (because I don’t stick to low carb long enough, and carb up every weekend), that 130g+ of protein will trigger insulin and be stored as fat or converted to glucose. Yeah there is a debate about this, with valid arguments (see: “At what rate does protein convert to glucose?” https://www.reddit.com/r/keto/comments/1e26y3/at_what_rate_does_protein_convert_to_glucose/), but, that protein has-to-go-somewhere…
Today is an eating day, and I will try to keep my carbs below 100g because of the “Challenge”. My protein will be high again, and I will probably gain weight. However, I plan to hit the 🏋🏾♂️ gym today and that usually helps keep the water gain down (30 minutes of heavy weightlifting will burn through glycogen like crazy).
Starting Monday it is back to the ‘no solid food fast’ and my #keto diet of less than 20 carbs a day…
😎 Life is Good! Have a great day everyone!
