I had gastric bypass in '09 and have kept all but about 20 or so pounds off. I have always had a slow metabolism my whole life and ate like a pig over the holidays. We are going to Yellowstone in August and I want to get fit again. I am sensitive to refined sugars due to the surgery so I try to avoid the proccessed crap but I still eat some of it. I find that in the past when I have tried to go low carb I feel like garbage for days and constantly hungry so I am assuming my body is going through withdrawl. I also need to cook for a family which is why I got an instant pot for christmas.
I am looking for a used treadmill. When I went to the gym I loved the tread mill. I walked as fast as most of the joggers and was able to get up to jogging. I am such an early riser that the idea of doing this around my neighborhood is unsafe. Plus with my joints a continous flat surface free of cars and stuff makes it perfect for me. But what is the difference between low carb and keto and does one work better than the other? What is "keto crotch". And intermittent fasting confuses me because i have seen rations like 16:8 and other like it but because my stomach is so small now I eat within 5 minutes of waking up which is usually bran cereal. I do not have cakes or icecream in the house,no cookies, no candy, no chips. I have my little red icees but thats it. I always try and cook a balanced meal. I would like imput on what you all do, even if its different than what I mentioned and how easy it is to incorporate into a family (my family is healthy. no one is picky.) Please share any info you can and what you do and break it down for me if you can. One of my long term goals is to have some skin removed but I need to be at a stable weight before going back for the consult. All are welcome to post.
