I read the rest of that blog earlier tonight. I'm torn on how I want to approach this. Honestly, I don't work out. The longest span I've ever "worked out" consistently has been maybe 2-6 months in my whole like. Unless you count running with push-ups and sit-ups. Even then, I don't really push myself. This diet intrigues me because I'd like to be able to burn fat and drop a few pounds. I weighed myself again and I came in at 206, which is less than I thought. If I can loose 10lbs in fat, I'll be extremely happy.
With that said, I lean toward the CKD, because it's not like I'm really pushing myself. However, I don't want to pass out on the street if I decide to do some sprints or something.
On the other hand, TKD seems more manageable, but I feel like if I let a few carbs in, then I just will stop trying and let them all in, which is basically what happened the last time I thought I'd try this.
I've gone since pretty much Tuesday night eating very few carbs. Today at 4:50 pm I ate a cookie (it was glorious). I am still VERY sore from my workout Monday (run) and Tuesday (body weight exercises). I don't think I've injured myself, just very slow recovery. Also, I've been having a VERY difficult time waking up each morning. I'm talking over sleeping by an hour pretty much every day this week. I guess that is the fatigue I read about. Looking forward to having carbs this weekend, but not overdoing it. I plan on eating Pho tomorrow night.
One thing I wanted to ask about though, is if any of you guys have experienced circulation issues. My run tonight was SHORT. 1.5ish miles and 14ish minutes. I was wearing the same thin cotton gloves that I always wear when it is cold out, and same outdoor gear that is perfectly comfortable. Tonight, my hands were COLD. Like I thought I might have frostbite cold. I didn't hang around outside cooling down like usual. I came right in and my finger tips were in pain as they were warming up. It was about 27-30 degrees out, and I was outside, with gloves, for less than 20 minutes. I've never been this cold in such a short period of time. I might have run further but my fingers were almost completely numb. I've run when it was below zero before and never been this cold. Think it has anything to do with adjusting to this keto diet?
