Carbs are back

I'm not sure exactly what it was. I'm not sure whether it's all in my mind. I'm not sure if I was just having a bad week or two. What I am sure about though is that the small intake of carbs between Thursday and Sunday certainly contributed to my increased performance over the weekend. … Continue reading Carbs are back

8 weeks – time to re-assess

Its been 8 weeks and I've discovered I need to change where I'm going with lchf. It might seem a bit 'oh I love this, its fantastic' one minute and the next 'ugh, feel like shit, it's not working', I see that. I am in both of those camps right now. I figure eight weeks … Continue reading 8 weeks – time to re-assess

Could You not eat carbs..?

It’s a semi rhetorical question. Every body is different and everyone has their own requirement and routines that determine what they eat.

I made an effort to get a few runs in and mediocre strength training, at least so my joints would be able to manage to movement. Each run was tough and wore … Continue reading Cadbury 10k – 14/1/18

Diet. Lifestyle choices. Culinary intake.

Last night's weight in was not pleasing but expected. A minor gain which is understandable given my body has been in recovery mode. But now to my general diet and what I do. Yesterday's post was highlighting the worst I can do. Even being on a lifestyle plan. It's not a diet, it's a change … Continue reading Diet. Lifestyle choices. Culinary intake.

(bad) Food! and exercise

I have a really good appetite.  I love food. Good food, Bad food.  Pretty much all food. I'm not overly fussy when it comes to eating. Give me a super sized steak and I'll demolish it in no time. Complete with lashings of hot mustard.  I like desserts, but it's not a sweet tooth I … Continue reading (bad) Food! and exercise
