Jealous of your snacks! :(  

You got to fuel a train to get that cargo moving. 🚂 Chooo chew. 

Chris, do you know if there’s any importance on meeting your macro targets vs intake? For example with protein my target is 40% but I rarely hit that but I’m consistent with getting 150-180g, sometimes more of protein a day. Just curious. 

Mike, I was wondering about that. I have read different things on different sites, some say if you have too much protein it turns to fat. I workout really hard and I am still fat. 6’2” 266lbs. I am building muscle slooowly while losing weight. 

That’s a lot of energy! If be comatose! 

Protein doesn’t turn to fat. Lose weight by having a calorie deficit and you’ll maintain muscle mass and gain strength while losing weight. 

Thank you, that’s good to know. I am upping the protein. 💪🏋️‍♀️ 

Chris do you follow your lab work at all. Just curious 

Thanks For the explanation 👊 Btw I follow my blood work and with the quest diagnostic app it keeps your history so you can compare your levels over time. It’s pretty cool. From what I have read the protein levels measure in you bloodwork does not fluctuate by the amount of protein you intake. Which seems to be true since my protein level is hovering around 6.8 for the last 4 years and I’ve only been consistent with maintaining my protein in take for about a year. My challenge is cholesterol levels. The doctor wants my intake to be below 200mg per day. This has been near impossible when trying to maintain my calorie intake and protein levels. I told him it’s hereditary so just give me the pill. 😂  

That's a sh**load of carbs! I'd be asleep for days if I ate that much! You would have to roll me out of bed!! lol. As I posted earlier, ur last post made me crave sugar so had to make a trip to Baskin Robbins...I blame you! (💜) Got on scale this morning and lost 2 oz! Weight is funny that way... 

Impressive!! Thanks for the info, Chris! I definitely notice that I can work out harder when I have sugar, which I used to avoid. What were your workouts like when you were keto?
