Pre-ordered a Samsung S7 edge! Can't stand the OnePlus Two, defiantly isn't what it promised to be.

Ah fairs, just Googled magnesium, never knew it could cause diarrhea. How's the diet going other than the magnesium? Second day in and I'm feeling good. Lost a lot of water weight.

2 motorbikes from 2 different houses stolen last night in my road. Luckily they didn't take mine. Not many houses in my road either 15 houses at most.

That may be because you're consuming too much protein. Gives me explosive diarrhea sometime, best described like carpet bombing. Do you know how much fat and protein you are eating? Started my keto diet today and defiantly got a bit of brain fog!

Think some of that may be water weight dropping off, but sounds like it's a good diet. Start mine a week today. Yeah gotta get creative with the diet or it gets boring quick!

On a sad note, Rwby volume 3 is over So many feels, phyrahs supposedly dead, rwby a silver warrior thing, frozen grimm, yangs depressed, soo many questions! Yes I get very emotional over my favourite anime characters...

To be fair it was an amazing night out! Will probably see more bands on my own too was nowhere near as lonely as I thought it would. May have drunk a little too much, found someone's parcel opened on my bedroom floor. The address on the front is nowhere near my house either. Like ages away from my house!

Went to MCN London today, sat on loads of bikes and spent far too much money! Great day out, got my self a new helmet finally too! Gotta love being single on valentines day, all the money I can spend on bikes!

Slipknot on my lonesome, unreliable mates D:

Not sure how much you will feel in just a month. How is it up until now though?

@JT! How long are you expecting to try this out for? Im soon going to be trying this sort of diet. The last bit about stuffing your face, i think that may be something that happens when switching metabolic patterns from carbs to fat. This is when you are entering ketosis. Remember you re-feed on those carbs once or twice per week to keep yourself satisfied and a high metabolism. If i was aiming to loose a few pounds to not be 'overweight' id just hit the keto diet hard for 2 or 3 months and then just eat a balanced diet of fats, carbs and protein. On paper keto diets and others are all good but if you dont participate in any sort of activity where it gains an advantage a balanced diet is best. Diets like the keto may allow some form of 'binge' but sods law it will never fit in line with your social life. Also just for motivation dont look at the numbers too often and defiantly dont expect to see X amount of lbs drop. Use the mirror people dont see a list of figures they see a physique, as long as you look okay and feel okay thats all that matters. People get too into numbers, graphs etc as shown in this thread, they're good for tracking but they can also massively bring you down killing motivation. Dont worry about the carbs either eat within moderation they wont make you fat, sugar will make you fat.

19% is high i know but my point was that cardio is not the key to loosing fat. Also for my current goals 19% is not high at all considering i have been eating like a monster for over 2 years now. I'm not a runner like yourself, i am a weightlifter where 19% is a very common number. Also adding that i never said you gave bad advice, i said it does not apply to the Keto diet. For someone with no goal or specific ambitions, a balanced diet is best, but its a keto thread

Yeah kinda realised that but I wasn't deleting the post, it uses my valuable brain powaarrr. Pretty sure it will add to the fire ..

This thread wreaks! @JT! whats your goal with this Keto Diet? Looking to loose abit of weight and then maintain or just wanna be healthier? OOO seems to be giving actual facts and as far as nutrition goes i agree with him, its all good stuff! However i would ignore the whole DNA side of things, that just not necessary unless its a real passion of yours and/or you want that edge in some form. Jeff, well ignore everything he has said so far pretty much. JD, the advice given is good but does not apply to a Keto diet imo. Take it with a pinch of salt. Ali C, Sound advice but basic Everybody else has just thrown in opinion and life stories The whole move more, eat less idea is very generic and ineffective. Weight loss, weight gain and maintenance is always 80% diet and 20% Exercise! We cracked the whole food and diet concept a LONG time ago, it is not as jeff said 'notoriously complex' it is a very simple concept. Maybe complex if you want that edge but for everyday it is easy. Its as Ali C said you must exert more energy than you intake to burn fat or carbs. How you exert this energy is not as straight cut as you may think. Its not just a run or physical movement that will burn the fat. It can be anything, you can burn huge amounts of fat without any low intensity cardio as said before its 80% diet so you will be loosing weight and the cardio is a boost on top. To prove this, i am big built naturally carry more fat than others and i consume 5000-6000 calories roughly a day for over 2 years with no cardio, however lifting heavy weights and i am only 19% body fat there are many avenues for energy to exerted. How much energy? That depends on your body, you must figure out you ideal caloric intake and then using the Keto diet plan decide you Macros (Protiens, Fats, and Carbs). Dont live in a deficit, live on a maintenance intake this will alow you to maintain the benefits and diet over a long period of time. Remember nothing happens quickly. A deficit will only be possible for around 6 months at the most depending on he deficit. Macros will need to be monitored and adjusted as your body composition will change. Also everyone saying diets are bad, you become fat after, yes that because its a bad diet. A diet is just the food you consume and a keto diet can be long term. You re-fuel on carbs to raise your metabolism up to prevent plateau and cravings. All diets like this have the same concept, just they have extras thrown in, from what i see the man one here is carb cycling, which is very effective, withing from metabolising carbs and fats! A diet like this will be best done in stages if you are looking to loose some excess.

Exactly this, I realised it as soon as I read, “But what about heart disease and cholesterol? I DON’T WANNA DIE; BACON ISN’T WORTH IT!” Don't they know bacon is life? Bullshit

Noisy Cricket is a must have for the measly price of $20!! Jaybo indestructible, not so good imo.

Nash Mills is the trials Park I'm thinking of, knew I'd remember sometime haha.

Griffin RTA is a beast! Amazing flavour massive deck no leaking, it's a winner! Can fit dual 9 wrap Clapton in there easily! It's really something especially for flavour, I've been using alien Clapton coils in my RDA so my standards are high for flavour

I kinda agree with this, videos like this just are not appealing to the public they're not even appealing to me! We need more videos like the CLS videos aggressive riding and music coupled with that personality all videos like that have! Very skilled rider though!

For me it's the essentials that I just don't want to or can't be bothered to buy for my self. Usually protein powder in my case or any supplements that aren't really expensive but it's still another thing to buy. I think practicality is the key.

Slipknot on the 10th of February! Can't wait to see them again! Also drowning hopefully coming to the UK, roll on the beatdown hardcore!!!

Unfortunately there isn't any real natural spots around Hemel Hempstead really but there is a trials centre nearby kings Langley way. Can't remember what it is called though someone will know or a quick Google. Where are you located?

Aha thought that would be the main one I was mainly concerned about internals but after a re think I'm sure there's no real valves in my forks to damage anyway.

I may not post on the forum but it's definitely not the same. The whole trials community seems to have disappeared. I miss the good old CLS days with that permanent orange residue from brick walls on the chainstays! I wonder how the UK sales figures look for tartybikes when compared to a couple of years ago?

How do you know if you have blown a fork seal? It's an upside down fork too. Rode up a curb on the way home from work at some speed and the bike seems okay but the fork seems different now but my head usually plays games. I see no oil though..
