Problem getting into ketosis

[chipvideo]

I started the diet yesterday. I did my upper body yesterday followed by 30 minutes of cardio and today I did my legs followed by 30 min of cardio.

I got home and tested my blood sugar and it was at 97. This is also after going 12 hours without eating.

I am really sore as I train heavy and I blasted my body over the last 2 days in order to deplete my glycogen levels.

How much glycogen can be stored in the body anyway. Is it possible that my body stores more than the average person?

Should I do a high intensity cardio session tonight?

Forgot to add that I am doing the ANPB diet.

3tblspoons of anpb with 26 grams of aussie casienate 6 times per day.

It usually takes into the third day to enter ketosis,in my experience.

Ok. I remember now 7 years ago when I did bodyopus it took me 3 days. I just figured that since I was already on a low carb diet before I started this anpb diet it would come faster. I am also going to be on this for 2 weeks and then refeed so I guess it is no big deal. I just dread going in and doing 45 minutes of cardio tonight. I am tired and cranky and very sore.

with the ANPB diet it can take up to 7 days to get into ketosis due to the high protein intake, so don't worry about not getting into it now

The heck with it. I am on my way to do 45 min of cardio. I just have to be in ketosis. I am also going to lower my protein powder intake to 20 grams per meal.

Do you have any knowlege of GABA?

Any pros or cons taking this on the anpb diet?

Also what about potassium suplementation. I always made a point to take it with every meal. Should I take it on this diet as well or does the anpb have enough already?

I wouldn't take GABA, don't see a reason for it.

Potassium is needed in any diet, so add it.
