Hi Ischia!! I have started reading through your journal and was wondering (I hope this hasn't been brought up yet but..) why you add a fat post workout?
I always read (even on a keto diet) that you never ever add a fat post, only hi GI carb and fast digesting protein. The fat only slows down the absobtion of the nutrients.
I can't wait to catch up on your journal.. but it's going to be quite the read!!
Have a wonderful day!!

ischia99 said:Hi Jacqueine,
Thx for the post!! Yes your are right about to never add a fast post workout, however the above meal you are referring to has less than 10grams of carbs and it was on a day that I was carb depleting therefore my calories come from my fats & proteins. Otherwise on days that are moderate-high carbs I do not have fats in my post workout shake but rather at the end of the day w/ a source of protein and not carb.
Hope this clears it up for you.
Thx
