Done just over a stone now in about 3 weeks, pretty easy really it's just eating stuff high in fat with no carbs.
Meats, butter, cheese and bits of veg.
Will do it for another couple of months then get on the weights.
Might give that a go, haven't got any time to do much exercise with work and the baby thoughDoes this link work?

Just Google keto recipes and get ready to cut out all carbs and stock up on butter
It's hard the first couple of days but not massively bad once on it.Might give that a go, haven't got any time to do much exercise with work and the baby though
Not bad going, is that starving yourself for 2 or just no carbs?Been running a bit and did the 5:2 diet for a couple of weeks. Lost nearly a stone I think
Starving for 2 days (about 700 calories though not 500), not as difficult as it sounds after you've done it a couple of times. Pretty much avoid carbs on starve days as they're higher in calories. You find you eat less on the other days too.Not bad going, is that starving yourself for 2 or just no carbs?

I think who’s ever it is, is one miserable bastard!Today marks 6 months without drinking a drop of Coke, Pepsi, 7-up, Fanta, Tango, Vimto, Lucozade, R-Whites, Irn Bru, Corona, or ANY kind of fizzy drink.
It's also 6 months without eating bread, cake, biscuits or anything sweet. It was tough at first - but it's been SO worth it.
The change in my body has been fantastic, I feel great, I lost weight and my way of thinking is very positive...
I'm looking to keep this up and go for more. Because I care!...
Also NO alcohol, chocolate, sugar in tea or sweets over Christmas and into New Year Eve and beyond. I'm eating healthy and above all, I have an hour of exercise every day!!!

I don't know who's status this is, but it said to copy and paste....!!!!

Eat Jelly babies when you're on a big burn, otherwise it's common to pig out afterwards as you're brain craves more carbs.Same as this, did 75 miles this morning and not stopped eating shite since! Don’t really drink much but tend to eat crap when I am around the house bored

I have exactly the same problem with running . I've cycled for years and always been hungry after, but recently I've started running and miraculously get round a 5 mile circuit, which is a killer. My food craving has reached a new level . I get home, cool off for half an hour , shower, and then within a couple of hours systematically empty the fridge and cupboards of anything that looks like it has carbohydrate. I've tried drinking loads of water as that supposed to do the trick, but no.I pig out after a long ride, I go Cannock chase, only do about 30 miles but takes about 6-7 hours, burn around 2,000 calories but when I get back to the shop, I can't stop eating and will easily eat 1500 calories. I only take gels out with me though as I find I can consume them a lot easier.
I was like it over the weekend after the gym, just couldn't get fullI have exactly the same problem with running .

I couldn't get enough, protein bar, protein drink, rice, fish, banana, biscuits.I find something high in carbs, protein and fat after the gym does the trick for me.
A tuna mayo bagel for example and then coffee or tea which seems to suppress the appetite.
I never go over 3 miles either. You're just breaking your body down after that distance I think.
Yesterday felt longer due to the wind! Still good fun!Does it feel like that when you are riding?
Too much sugar makes me feel sick riding. Mix of carb drink and energy bar does the job in the saddle and recovery drink after a showerEat Jelly babies when you're on a big burn, otherwise it's common to pig out afterwards as you're brain craves more carbs.
I changed to energy bars, more sustainable rather than quick fix gels.I pig out after a long ride, I go Cannock chase, only do about 30 miles but takes about 6-7 hours, burn around 2,000 calories but when I get back to the shop, I can't stop eating and will easily eat 1500 calories.

An old mate of mine used to have a problem with pigging out after boxing, in the end he found a solution... breaking 6 eggs into a pint glass and downing the lot without whisking.
Did that fill him up? Might give it a go. Would probably whisk and add a bit of pepperAn old mate of mine used to have a problem with pigging out after boxing, in the end he found a solution... breaking 6 eggs into a pint glass and downing the lot without whisking.
Add a bit of butter and cook it slowly stirring in a frying pan until it scrambles, perfectDid that fill him up? Might give it a go. Would probably whisk and add a bit of pepper
Sounds like a good idea, what's that called?Add a bit of butter and cook it slowly stirring in a frying pan until it scrambles, perfect
That sounds delightful! Really high calories but good protein!An old mate of mine used to have a problem with pigging out after boxing, in the end he found a solution... breaking 6 eggs into a pint glass and downing the lot without whisking.
