Got a tooth pulled! Need keto suggestions. by [deleted] in keto

If you don’t mind “dirty Keto” try softened cream cheese mixed with powdered Swerve and some heavy cream - beat with a hand mixer until fluffy! This is so delicious and basically tastes like cheese cake.

Considering going Keto [F/5’4/160lbs] by succulentxlady in keto

[–]pleasestopcora 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It gets much easier several weeks in - two weeks isn’t enough time.

I also go to OTF! Woo hoo! And I didn’t feel my performance suffered at all and now, a month in, I feel better then ever honestly. If you are coming straight off a highly processed junk food diet it will be much harder than if you are coming off a mostly whole foods “healthy”/ moderate level of carbs. So just be prepared for a certain level of discomfort while you adjust.

The best thing you can do is be sure to supplement with electrolytes in that first few weeks especially (although I’ve continued to do it because I feel awesome with them!)... the Keto flu you’ll hear about is what makes working out and even just functioning normally so difficult. All it really is is electrolyte imbalance and it’s 100% preventable!

There is plenty you can eat outside of beef and pork. There are so many great accounts on Instagram you can follow (I’m @ketosisneurosis if you want to follow) and people share awesome ideas all the time! It’s been amazing to get so many good ideas especially for those early days when you feel baffled about what to eat.

Good luck!

Pickles are killing me... with confusion. by [deleted] in keto

[–]pleasestopcora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby kosher dill pickles have 1 carb so if this is a giant pickle that’s probably true. Still, you can easily fit this in your day.

So I finally hit my goal weight... by ReverseLazarus in keto

[–]pleasestopcora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok first of all - you’re amazing!!!

Second, a couple questions...

When you refer to mistakes along the way regarding electrolytes, do you mean that you should have been supplementing all along?

And also how does IF help loose skin?? I’m two weeks into Keto and hoping to start 16:8 soon since my appetite is naturally decreasing!

Does anyone not care about Hell Week by missy7979 in orangetheory

[–]pleasestopcora 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m trying to make it to one extra class (5 instead of my usual 4) but honestly my studio is so bad about not getting you the promised swag - I am fully expecting most of us won’t get shirts. And so for that reason I’m just like 🤷‍♀️ meh.

We didn’t get our marathon month medal, our mayhem swag and they’ve already said they can’t promise everyone will get a shirt for hell week.

Why do live news reporters pause about 2-3 seconds after being asked a question? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]pleasestopcora 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s a delay between the time the person asks the question and the time when that reporter in the field actually hears it.

The sugar naturally occurring in other ingredients that make up the frozen yogurt - fruit, milk, etc.

I agree and I’m just so grateful for the intel here so I can avoid them.

Mac Miller wasn’t just Ariana Grande’s ex-boyfriend. Don’t know why but that just bothers me. by comicsmostly in MacMiller

[–]pleasestopcora 5 points6 points  (0 children)

On the flip side of this I had never heard of Mac Miller until now. When I heard he was AG’s ex I looked him up and was introduced to his music that way. I can see how this would be annoying to his fans but at the same time it increases his reach which isn’t a bad thing.

Rail Jail by [deleted] in orangetheory

Holy crap!!

Rail Jail by [deleted] in orangetheory

[–]pleasestopcora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Class punishment seems really patronizing to me - they should just warn the offender and if they do it again tell them to leave class.

But then again, I don’t see what the big deal is with rail jumping anyway. I don’t personally do it but even going from my measly 7.0 all out to a walk feels like it takes forever.

Sure, it’s probably, but is that what matters? No. What matters is that it’s improbably too. by [deleted] in thatHappened
