Stick with it Tahr, the sluggish feeling you are experiencing is your body adapting to using fat as its main fuel source. This adaption phase can last from 1 to 3 weeks but will pass as long as your carb intake is low and your insulin levels are stable. Once complete your body can tap into the massive natural energy reserve, this is known as being in the ketogenic state. You will then find massive gains in endurance and negate the need for that constant on the move re-fuelling.

Hi Mart

How long have you been on this diet? I am trying to phase in more protein on most days, but going high carb' before big days and races.

I realise I am halfway

[DrPatrickBarry]

I realise I am halfway

3/4 for me, but it has been very slow, pretty much 1/2 Kg a forthnight. I have not been that good with the eating, just getting out running more.

[Hanneke]

It has been slow for me too, and like you, I have just been able to up the training again after 6 weeks off after the operation Slow loss is better though, less likely to yoyo back on!

3/4 for me, but it has been very slow, pretty much 1/2 Kg a forthnight. I have not been that good with the eating, just getting out running more.

[Stolly]

Early for Wednesday I know but I only weigh myself on Mondays mornings. I have finally managed to increase my running output over my cake input and, this morning, I'm 163 pounds. A minus one pound please Bob

[DrPatrickBarry]

Unless I can do wonders in the next two days I am going to have a fail this forthnight, with being stuck on 71 Kg. I am getting into the region of "why are you/are you mad trying to loose weight". My lack of displine with eating can not be counteracted by running 5 to 6 times a week.

[Hanneke]

I have no idea how I have done yet until I weigh myself Wednesday, but I have been eating too much cake, toffees, marzipan, God knows what... as if I am full on racing, which I am not! I have barely managed to get out on the bike once a week... I fear the worst
