Hi Broom, first I'm a huge advocate of exercise to improve control Insulin Resistance. If I have picked you up right your questioning why diet first because you agree with the argument that diet is damage control and exercise is fixing the problem. :bookworm: So why "more diet" simply because...

They still sell cigarettes don't they. Nuff said. ;) :bag:

Hi Kick, As long as your not crazy and having rice sandwiches breakfast lunch and dinner, it shouldn't be too much of a problem. For some people they are so carb sensitive they have to cut out bread and rice. Check your results with a glucose meter and if t doesn't spike you then you shouldn't...

Hi Martin, The usual school of thought is carbs to supply you body with fuel to give you energy to exercise before and protein afterwards to feed your muscles and promote growth. Is that going to be ok for you how do you handle carbs? If you on a Keto or LCFH diet then your body should...

Some one else's that way you don't have to cook it. ;) :bag:

I had a FLAKE the other day just the one, if it could be called one. It was from a multi-pack and about half the size of a small anorexic twig. :( I had a late night early start and because I'm old now and get tired easily I had an afternoon nap. Just wanted something sweet to kick start things...

I completely agree with you. I think our body's adapt to the new normal and unless you change things up from time to time you will always get the same results. ;) :bag:

Hi Joe, You have just set yourself up for the calorie is not a calorie argument. :banghead: But you are right reducing the amount (not calories) should give better results as long as your talking about how the body stores fat and the effects of insulin in this process. Keto is tapping into the...

This is why we talk about grass fed butter and beef, organic coconut oil and free range chicken etc... The nutrients and minerals are from the animals diet and organic versions of foods. A bit more expensive but you usually eat less on Keto so the cost balances itself out. ;) :bag:
