After the 22 rounds workout, my weight dropped 3+ lbs, but it came back a day later. So I feel like 227.8 is still a good sign of progress. Also, I've been in ketosis for a week. People are commenting that I look thinner and my pants are noticeably looser, so something is happening that the scale isn't registering.
It's an odd feeling, I have more consistent energy and I don't seem to be suffering in BJJ performance, but it feels like I'm about to gas out during exercise. The wall just doesn't come, I get to the point that I feel spent and hold there. Hopefully I can get to where I don't feel almost burnt out, even if it doesn't seem to hurt my performance. The feeling isn't much help.
It's been surprisingly easy to be carnivore-ish. I'm having very few cravings and have been in .5 ketosis range most of the time using my test strips. A few times I've been at the 4.0 level, haven't totally figured out why it kicks up and down so much. Might be nuts and creamer in coffee, etc., adding up to more carbs than I'm realizing.
