I've lost a lot of weight and want to start running like I used to, but I've moved and my new running path is kind of ridiculous.>starts 2400 feet up>gains another 400 feet over 1.5 miles to the turning point, 5% grade>half of it is paved, other half is rocky gravelI want to reach 10ks eventually, but that turning point would be nearly an 800ft gain, same 5%. I'll probably be carrying a gun for bears too, but I've got a decent setup for that. God damn.
>>77333421You're arguing with an invisible man I guess because what I said had nothing to do with that. Carbs regulate leptin, which I'm sure you are completely unaware of and don't know what that is. You should educate yourself though if you intend on pushing a subpar ideology. At least know it's subpar first by understanding the variables involved in physiology.

Why you should not go exclusively keto even when you're insanely fat:Yes, you will lose a bunch of weight and quickly. But you can also lose a bunch of weight and quickly while not experiencing the absolute detriment that come with doing pure keto. If you do pure keto, you are catalyzing muscle on your way down. That's part of the quick weight loss they won't tell you about. That's great that the scale is going down so quick, but why are you wanting to do something where you lose lean body mass? The lean body mass is the furnace. And not only that, when you finally get down to a normal way, you will be skinny fat with masses of looses skin. Whereas if you didn't do pure keto, you would have more muscle feeling where that skin is , and look leaner. And all it takes is doing one Carb Day each week. Keto is very effective for burning fat. But exclusively doing it without a break creates some major problems that are completely avoidable by simply doing one carb refeed day a week. If you're hitting protein and you're taking creatine, you are going to retain a sizable portion of the lean body mass that you've built underneath on all that fat . You've essentially been lifting weights every day of your life as a fat fuck. You should think of this as a bulk and cut. You're doing the cut part and you want to keep the book you have built. Not only should you be trying to lose weight, but you should be trying to retain that lean muscle mass. Those are your two goals. If you just do pure keto, you are fucking yourself on one of those goals big time.It spikes leptin (the satiety hormone), which helps reduce hunger, prevents metabolic slowdown, and supports thyroid and testosterone levels that can drop during prolonged low-carb deficits. Psychologically, it gives a rewarding break that improves long-term adherence without kicking you out of fat-burning mode for the rest of the week. This cycling approach balances fat loss with muscle protection and sustainability.

>>77333505I didn't bother reading all your lies.Dr Shawn Baker has been on a zero carb diet for years and he has more muscle than you ever will.
>>77333511A bunch of lies from someone who doesn't want anyone to try keto.
>>77333505>typing all this out for ketobro Fishfood
>>77333511Do keto 6 days a week and a carb refeed on 1 day a week. Or you will become a loose skin, skinny fat waife, eliminating all the muscle you built by being a fat ass, and burn fat slower since the lean body mass is your furnace to burning calories. All while being super hungry the entire time. These things are all avoidable by simply having one carb refeed a week.
Why go keto when you can just stop eating?It worked for Ghandi
>>77333512>Shawn Baker hHe has a girl's name probably because of the low testosterone he has from his hormones being all fucked. Regardless, yes you can maintain a good physique without carbs , if you want to work two to three times harder than the guy next to you having some carbs. You do you.
ketosis through fasting, fellasyou can have your keto AND your carbs
you're not fasting if you think 16h, 23h or even 40h is "fasting." fasting means 48 hours MINIMUM.
I cannot stop eating. Im so hungry all of the time.Are there any bong websites I can get reliable cheap mounjaro? Im pretty sure preptidesuk was a scamwhat the actual fuck has happened with the captchas in this palce
>>77333512Ya boy is on roids, and like most roidtrannies he downplays how much the roids contribute and overplays how much natty factors like diet, training, and effort contribute, usually to push some sort of agenda, in his case Keto. He's just another fraud like Mike Israel, and you're falling for the propaganda like the good goy you are.
>>77333562You are hungry because you eat carbs.
>I can purchase dirt cheap chemical reagents from China, just barely enough steps behind forming fentanyl without being completely illegal>but they're not making glp1 analogues for cheap yet for some reasonwhy
>>77333556according to whom
>>77333556i didn't say intermittent fasting, i said fastingyou're not getting real ketosis results through omad
>>77333505Doesn't keto let you eat protein though? You could just drink a bunch of protein shakes and still be way into a calorie deficit.
can exercising fix this feeling of sadness inside me? it's been a month since i started dieting and lost some weight, but i'm still terribly unhappy.
>>77333562Place*Start fasting, I swear it makes your stomach smaller or something or fixes your hunger hormones. I ate 1k calories today and I'm not gonna eat any more and I'm fine. A month ago I was ordering fast food multiple times a day multiple times a week
>>77333606No.
>>77333606ya your muscles will release dopamine when you exercise, just don't over do it.
The funniest shit I've seen in my life is those zero sugar added oreos. Instead of being 140 calories for 2, it's a lean mean 120 calories!Also, what kind of person actually buys protein pasta, poptarts and cheerios?
>>77333595High protein on keto does help protect muscle, but it’s not the full picture. Without carbs, your glycogen stores stay low, so your muscles can't perform doing daily things as well. Over time that can slow down muscle retention even if you’re eating plenty of protein. Staying very low carb long-term also tends to lower leptin, which can increase hunger and slightly drag down your metabolism and hormones so you go low t. A weekly refeed gives you most of the fat-loss benefits during the week while still letting you refill glycogen and get that recovery boost periodically.
>>77333621I did keto for 4 months (I have almost no muscles.) felt full after eating my trailmix snack. I ate like 40g carbs per day (stayed in keto.)
>>77333618I saw protein mac & cheese in the discount bin at my grocery store, they were buy one get one free and the bin was absolutely filled to the brim with them. So from the looks of it no one buys them, its just slop purveyor looking for another way to sell slop by jumping onto a trend.
>>77333621>Without carbs, your glycogen stores stay lowThis is not true at all. Your glycogen is filled by gluconeogenesis.The argument in favour of carbs is that eating pure sugar in the middle of endurance exercise will refill glycogen faster.Stop lying.
>>77333634Yeah, gluconeogenesis can technically make glucose from protein, but it’s slower and less efficient than just eating carbs when you’re trying to refill muscle glycogen for training. A lot of people on strict keto still feel flatter and weaker in the gym because that process can’t keep up with the demand, especially if you’re lifting heavy or doing higher volume work. That’s the practical difference most people notice.
>>77333643if u r 500 pound keto guy, getting gains is not a big deal compared to finding an effective life style change that will combat years of trauma that formed this succubi style relationship with eating
>>77333643It doesn't matter if it is slower. Glycogen stores fill to 100% regardless of whether your body is making the glucose or you are ingesting it.You are severely retarded and/or lying.
1. Glycogen takes hours of exercise to deplete. 2. Filling glycogen faster is irrelevant unless you literally eat WHILE EXERCISING.Besides that this isn't an athletics thread it is a weight loss thread.Never fall for carb shill lies.
Reminder to enjoy a balanced diet.
>>77333688>carb shill takes his mask off>it was moxytelmao
Yes, 99.9% of people are moxyte
>>77333667Technically you're right that glycogen can eventually fill up through gluconeogenesis if protein intake is high enough. The real issue is how fast it happens and how that affects training. Most people on strict keto still feel flatter and weaker in the gym because that process is slower, especially after hard lifting sessions. Carbs refill glycogen much quicker, which is why a lot of people notice better pumps, strength, and recovery when they add them back in even occasionally.
>>77333697how do you refill glycogen if you're in a calorie deficit on keto.
>gay homo keto niggas from outer space>mfw
>>77333653Well it's not really about getting gains. But retaining the muscle mass that you already have built through being a fat guy. You won't be able to retain as much with strict keto. But adding a carb refeed day will absolutely help you retain that lean mass.
>>77333706On strict keto in a calorie deficit, you don’t really refill glycogen stores the same way. Your body can make some glucose through gluconeogenesis from protein, but it’s slow and limited, so muscle glycogen stays relatively low most of the time. That’s why a lot of people feel flatter, weaker, and recover slower when they’re deep in a deficit on keto. A weekly refeed with carbs is one way to temporarily top off glycogen, improve training quality, and give hormones like leptin a boost without staying high-carb the rest of the week.
>>77333618Protein pasta is usually made from stuff like lentils.Lentils are great. But you probably meant shit like boxed mac, didn't you? Rather than just some regular lentil fusili.
>>77333710>>77333712wont you have keto flu for like 4 days each week if you do that?
>>77333712>>77333706For someone who’s just trying to hold onto the muscle they already have while losing fat, that lower glycogen state can make it a little harder to fully protect lean mass over a long period, especially when you’re eating in a deficit for months. A weekly carb refeed helps by giving your body a temporary break, raising leptin, and letting your muscles refill glycogen so you’re not running completely depleted all the time.
>>77333718No, you don’t usually get keto flu every week if you’re already fat-adapted. Once your body is used to running on fat, dropping carbs again after a single refeed day doesn’t hit you the same way it does when you first go keto. Most people feel a little flatter or have slightly lower energy for a day or two, but it’s nowhere near the full keto flu symptoms. Staying on top of electrolytes (especially sodium and potassium) makes it even smoother.
>>77333697Glycogen refills even when fasting.This is a fake problem you are making up in a weight loss thread.Filling your glycogen with carbs only has relevance to marathon athletes eating in the middle of a marathon.
>>77333706Triglycerides have a glucose backbone. Your glycogen is always refilled even when fasting just using stored body fat.But this is a weight loss thread so filling your glycogen is not relevant. Nobody here is competing in endurance sports. You probably won't run a marathon and if you do you won't be competing for first place anyway.
>>77333722Glycogen does refill a bit through gluconeogenesis even when fasting, but it’s slow and doesn’t fully top off your muscles, especially in a long-term calorie deficit. For someone just trying to hold onto the muscle they already have while losing fat, staying chronically low on glycogen can make you feel flatter and recover worse over time. A single big refeed once a week gives you a quick, meaningful boost to glycogen, energy, and leptin without messing up the overall fat loss. It’s not just for marathon runners, it’s practical for regular people who want to make the cut more sustainable.
>>77333727Even if your body makes some glucose from fat or protein while fasting, it’s slow and doesn’t fully refill muscle glycogen stores the same way carbs do. For regular overweight people just trying to lose fat and hold onto the muscle they already have, staying chronically low on glycogen can leave you feeling more tired and flat for weeks on end. A weekly carb refeed isn’t about marathon performance, it’s a practical way to give your body a short reset so you have better energy, less constant hunger, and a better chance of keeping the lean mass you’ve got while you lose the fat.
>>77333728Glycogen fills to 100% even when fasting. The body doesn't stop filling glycogen until it is full.And this is a weight loss thread not a marathon running thread so this conversation is a bit silly.Carbs are fattening. You get worse weight loss results when you eat carbs. You don't need to justify your eating habits. Everyone knows fat people eat carbs just because they are fat carb addicts.
>>77333733When you are trying to lose weight and you eat carbs you get worse weight loss results.Weight loss with carbs is so inferior that _unlimited calorie_ low-carb works better for weight loss than restricting calories and eating carbs.Whatever you are imagining about glycogen the net result of eating carbs is that they keep you fat.
Is glycogen why, when weighing every day, some weeks have almost no movement at all, then suddenly you drop the weight you were expecting from your deficit?Like math says you should be down 2 pounds on Sunday, but you're not. Then Wednesday hits and you're now down 3 instead.
yes with keto you lose fat and muscle
>>77333742YesWe all say we’re losing weight but really what we mean is decreasing fat, and sometimes that fat’s weight can be temporarily replaced by stored water weight
>>77333752And since time isn't really something our body actually understands, a "week" to us isn't exactly a week to your body?As in, yes you were down 7000 calories this week, but your body operates on a different timetable for when it will actually dump that weight?
>>77333751Muscle loss is caused by eating carbs while restricting calories. Carbs block fat burning so muscle is catabolized before the body finally switches to using fat for fuel.Fasting and ketogenic diets preserve muscle.
The only thing that's putting in a dent into my constantly 20% hovering body weight is 36+ hour fastsI hate it but I will perceiver
>>77333734Glycogen doesn’t fully refill to 100% on a strict deficit through gluconeogenesis alone — it stays chronically low. For regular overweight people just trying to lose fat and hold onto the muscle they already have, that low-glycogen state often leaves them feeling more tired, flat, and hungrier over time. A weekly carb refeed isn’t about marathon running or justifying bad habits. It’s a simple way to give your body a short reset so you have better energy, less constant hunger, and a better shot at keeping the lean mass while you lose the fat. Carbs aren’t magically fattening if calories are controlled, the problem is usually just eating too much overall.
>>77333740Yeah, low carb can make weight loss feel easier for a lot of fat people because it kills hunger and cravings, so they end up eating less without trying as hard. But carbs themselves don't keep you fat if your overall calories are in a deficit. Plenty of people lose serious weight eating carbs every day. The idea that unlimited low carb always beats calorie-controlled carbs only works if the low carb person is actually eating fewer calories. For regular folks just trying to drop fat and keep the muscle they have, a weekly carb refeed can make the whole process more sustainable without ruining results.
>>77333610>Start fasting, I swear it makes your stomach smaller or something or fixes your hunger hormonesit definitely does both
>>77333761>Muscle loss is caused by eating carbs while restricting calories.untrue, insulin is anabolic>Carbs block fat burninguntrue, you should read about how body uses different fuel sources>so muscle is catabolized before the body finally switches to using fat for fuel.this is what happens on keto>Fasting and ketogenic diets preserve muscle.pqrtly true, fasting preserves muscle only if they aren't used heavily, keto just catabolizes them away without any preservative effect
>>77333770Carbs keep you fat even if you are eating fewer calories than someone who eats lower carb.
Keto is gay. I've maintained muscle mass for months just by working out 4x a week on a deficit. Working out is cancer on keto, so I don't do keto.
Imagine engaging with ketoschizo KLOK
>>77333773Ketosis preserves muscle.https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8718030/
>>77333774That study shows low carb often leads to more weight loss in the short term, which is true for a lot of people. But it's mostly because it kills hunger so they naturally eat less, plus they lose a bunch of water weight early on. Carbs don't magically "keep you fat" if calories are controlled. Plenty of people lose fat successfully eating carbs. For regular heavy folks just trying to drop weight and hold onto the muscle they have, the real advantage of low carb is making it easier to stick with a deficit without feeling miserable all the time. A weekly refeed doesn't ruin that.
>another graph about ketards losing muscles
>>77333775Post body and lifts so we can compare you to zero carb Dr Shawn Baker.
>>77333781He has to work two times is harder as a man that's incorporating carbs. His testosterone is also probably floor level.
>>77333779Insulin is a fattening hormone. It only seems magical to flat calorie theorists (cico believers).Eating carbs causes higher adiposity at the same body weight.Carbs = more fat, less muscle.
>>77333786So post your body and lifts since it is so easy for carb munchers to get better results than him.
>>77333787Insulin does help store fat, but that doesn't mean eating carbs automatically makes you fatter if calories are the same. A lot of those rodent studies and older papers don't match what happens in real people trying to lose a ton of weight. For fat people just trying to drop fat and keep the muscle they already have, the bigger problem with carbs is usually that they make hunger harder to control, so people end up eating more overall. If calories are controlled, carbs don't magically turn into more body fat than fat does. The real advantage of lower carb for most big people is that it kills cravings and makes sticking to a deficit easier, not because carbs are inherently fattening.
>>77333792Calorie measurements don't matter. Carbs are fattening, other macros aren't.For example hypercaloric protein consumption doesn't cause increases in body fat. Pic related.
>>77333800That study shows high protein can be pretty forgiving even when you're eating in a surplus, which is cool for lifters. But for very overweight people trying to lose a lot of fat, it's different. Calories still matter a ton. Eating a ton of carbs when you're in a big surplus does tend to pack on more fat than eating extra protein or fat would. The real advantage of lower carb for heavy people is that it usually kills hunger so they naturally eat less without feeling like they're white knuckling it. High protein is great either way for holding onto muscle, but pretending calories don't count at all is where it falls apart for actual weight loss.
