You need to go keto, your body will use carbs as a priority over anything else. I’m in ketosis right now, how do i know? I have keto strips which you can buy online from pharmacies for peanuts.
How long does it take?Me personally 5-7 days, some people take a month though. Days 3-4 i have massive sugar cravings, by day 7 i don’t even look at or crave chocolate. Energy levels stay consistent all day, no ups and downs. I can eat as many calories as i want and not put on weight but i won’t loose weight u less I’m eating less than 2500calories but that’s with zero exercise. You have to eat a lot of green veg and be careful not to have too much protein otherwise in ketosis your body will turn excess protein into glycogen and knock you out. I buy meats that contain less than 0.5% carbs
I typically eat
Breakfast
2 bacon 2 sausage 2 eggs and some mushrooms cooked in butter.
Dinner salmon and a whole bag of rocket salad or mixed leaf
Tea chicken/steak with brocolli green beans
Supper minced beef with cheese grated on top.
I’m never hungry and probably eat too much protein but I’m never out of ketosis when i pee.
There’s more than enough calories in those meals for bike rides.
