I'm crap at coming on this thread! I have so much to update. I've gained again and this morning my rings could barely come off cos of water retention from salt yesterday. Always fun when that happens!
I went to the gym 2 weeks ago and did the Stairmaster for 10 minutes and JESUS WEPT it was so hard. My (flat) arse actually got sore after haha. Then Wednesday I went to get anger out after work and did rowing. I did 5000m on the rowing machine to lower my blood pressure lol could tell it was raised all day, I was fuming at work
A few breaks, but then I actually had to physically lift my legs off after as my thighs had siezed up then did stretching but had to physically lift them into the stretches as well. Was worried I'd paralysed myself for a second
thought I'd have to call my housemate to drive my car home
Then when I did drive home, I had to lift my leg onto the clutch to start the thing as I couldn't do it, then winced all the way home
@soph30 trying to remember from 2 pages ago was ir you that said you were 1 point over on blood sugar and you do better on low carb? Cos same here!! I'm not obese by BMI but very
bleeping nearly, and my waist hip ratio is shiteeee. Drs have told me low carb is fine if that works for me (which it did, I can get my HBA1C down). So honestly it might be our bodies are cunts and we don't process properly
I
bleeping love pasta and all but defo makes me sluggish 🫠 I'm 5'2, have just gone back to 11 stone 5 and I neeeed to get back on the low carb
tit. Keto is too insane, an ONION has carbs, I ain't doing that
I'd done some reading & stats I'd track was to stay at or around 15g *added* sugar a day (e.g. honey, syrups, sugar blah blah, not like milk (which has natural sugar according to the app I talk about below lol)) and something like 50g carbs? We're talking literally 2 years ago now
App wise - (lol I havent tracked in ages) my most successful one was Cronometer. I'm a secret nerd, and it breaks down the macronutrients when you click on it as to what foods you ate that day contributes. E.g. did youm all know choona has every single amino acid?? Cleansing choona
it also colour codes and I'm a visual learner so
The only crap part is it's database is American with some UK but I just sort of pick the closest thing if it doesn't have it.
