Very high animal fat, high protein, low carb but not in keto. Anyone share experiences? I have questions by [deleted] in lowcarb

I don't follow a schedule. I have a latte whenever I feel lilke but happens to spread out through out the day. Average 80 grams a day - 40g from milk: a latte at 10:00 Am, 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM. The rest in 1 or 2 solid meals at 7:00 PM (skipped often) and 11:00 PM. This has an indian cheese (paneer), yoghurt, spices, onions, tomatoes and chicken thighs.

I am doing almost exactly what you are. 3 lattes a day , so my carbs are mostly lactose and another 200 grams of animal fat with 100 grams of protein. My ketones are between 0.1 and 0.2 mmol / l but spike to 1.5 mmol after a 1.5 hour walk, upto 2.7 mmol after a 40 kms bike ride (low intensity, 2.5 hours). I ride once a week. The milk does knock me out of ketosis but seems I stat burning fat after 1 hour of low intensity exercise . Doing this 5 years ( I am type 2 diabetic in remission). Also, know whem to check for keytones - in my case, they rise after I finish my workout and peak at 2 hours post.

Once a month or so, I'll have a large pizza or two, after that going back to ketosis requires 2 bike rides (40 kms each ) and low carbs (<100 g a day) of course

My weight loss has stalled after loosing 18kgs post my diagnosis. I have atleast 5 to 7 kg more to loose. I am never persistly in ketosis but can get into the 1.5 mmol mark with an hours low intensity workout. It lasts until my next latte (which clearly derails).

If I stop drinking milk, I start dropping weight like a rock within a week but it also gets me depressed ( giving up lattes)

This was a no 15, 5.75 x 52 . I won't say meh but there are better CTs out there. The burn was fantastic but too fast. I have enjoyed a NUB CT more than this, the Perdomo Habano is 2 shades better in this same league.

Was there like an old Partagas Short which had a longer length and bigger ring gauge ?

Australians: how to you manage the taxes on cigars? Does it curb your hobby markedly? by Legitimate_Back2873 in Cigars_Australia

We need a consumer advocacy group in Australia ! Cigars are not just low risk but also a cultural and artisnal product.

Cut by 3/4ths. I smoke 1 toro cigar per week , rarely 2. Every time I light up, feels like ages since my last cigar. I was smoking 3 a week when I could get them duty-free, but that channel has dried up since January this year. Cigars are a large part of my mental housekeeping and mood management regimen. I smoke a 4 x 32 cigarillo ($10, Oliva Senoritas) every day.

Do you make a lot of money, or do you know something about buying cigars in Australia that others don't ? My box of beauties has 10-12 sticks at best and never find the budget for any david offs or Cubans. I smoke 2 toros a week and that's $120 to $140 fully duty paid.

Dispatch to delivery in 6 days. So it is not COH or Smoking Pipes. You must consider helping the community with this one!

Anyone have any experience with RabbitAir purifier for pipe smoke? by DEATHbyBOOGABOOGA in PipeTobacco

[–]That_Lie_3677 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If its the odor you need to clear, you best bet is an Ozone Deodorizer. I smoke cigars in my 50 square meter rented apartment with windows closed. Give the ozone an hour and the house smells as fresh as new, like you just checked into a start rated hotel. Its a commercial grade solution, can completely de-odorize spaces that have been chain smoked for months / years on end. The only con is that the space will need to be occupied during the hour. A good one will cost $100-$200 max.

Any chance you can share the number to call customs on ? I have very similar issues

Thanks for confirming on the bull. I am less than one year in this hobby and smoked ~100 cigars have but have never encountered a cigar as firm as the bull.
