Started CKD diet, sharing my exp.!

[Advaik]

I started CKD diet a few days ago, I hit trace-mild ketosis on the second day and found that I am never hungry on this diet, actually I am anything BUT hungry. All the oils and fats make me feel like I'm going to puke all the time and it is very difficult for me to even bring myself to eatting any of it, but I am determined and will not eat any carbs. The ECA stacks make me sweat like a hog at night, I woke up soaked. On the first day it felt like I was at the end of a huge tunnel the entire day. Everything echoed in my ear and my eyes couldn't focus on anything. I still was able to run my 30 minutes though. I look very flat and all my skin seems to be sagging, although I only lost 1mm on my abs. I lost 4lbs so far, but its almost all water weight. I find I get terrible dry mouth on the CKD diet, I am constantly drinking and pissing.

The only thing I am worried about is I measured my arms today and they were smaller than normal, I am not losing muscle am I?

Well hopefully I am in this for the long run, not going to stop untill I reach 9-10% bf (about 20lbs to lose) and then I will start a sensible diet to gain some mass and not gain fat (33%f/p/c diet).

Oh yeah, I also want to point out that my joints are cracking like crazy. I can crack my knuckles completly every 10 minutes, it use to take up to an hour or more. My back sounds like fireworks going off when I crack it. I hope this doesn't lead to joint stiffness.

a weekend carb up will prevent you from losing muscle

thank you mrs. obvious

Ah, I wasn't aware that the carb up days were what prevented you from losing muscle. Thanks

Update!

I still feel like I am constantly gonna puke, actually its worsen. I have almost no energy, all I can do is sit around now. I am breathing pretty hard, its like my body can't get enough oxygen. I am now down 5lbs. Today is the first day that I knew this is going to be a hard mentally and phsyically. I have no desire to eat carbs except for the fact that I know it would make the pains in my stomach go away and wake me up a little. I find it harder and harder to eat the amount of fat I need, but today I found cheese dogs at Wal-Mart. 13g fat, 1g carb, 7g prot. These things are great and have good ratios. Well, 3 more days to suffer, I really hope the first week is the worst.

When i was on tha Ckd this is what i ate..

1) 1 scoop whey/2 tablespoons flax
2) Salmon/mixed with mayo and dill relish
3) 1 can tuna 2 tablespoons mayo and dill relish
4) 1 scoop whey/ 2 tablespoons flax
5) Salmon/ mixed with mayo and dill relish
6) 7oz Beef or 4 whole eggs (boiled)


When i started i would eat shit like Hotdogs (aka Cow Udders and Chicken Beaks) and cheese ALL THA TIME... but fuck that,, that shit was super unhealthy and it was causing me to break out.

Then i started doing a "cleaner" version of tha Ckd...Results were awesome, i'm never going back to hotdogs and cheese again.

WOW, sounds like your having a hard time. What all are you eating?

Try my diet

Breakfast: Bacon and Egg Omlet.

Lunch: Tuna Salad w/ olives and Olive Oil as dressing.

Dinner: Broiled Steak, chicken, or fish, another salad, 1/2 cup of 1 or 2 vegtables that fit into the 10% carb category. Broccoli, Okra, Green Beens, etc.

Take a good multivitamin, CoEnzyme Q10, and drink lots of water.

What are you drinking? Water, decaf tea, green tea, seltzer water only. Watch some of the artifical sweeters. While some drinks like Crystal Light seem appealing, the Aspartame can screw you up when your carb intake is so low. I almost passed out and suffered from low blood sugar when i got about 2 weeks into my Keto diet, and drinking a LOT of Crystal Light.

Fill us in on all of your details. Maybe we can help ID the problem

woah, i was gonna do a CKD diet during Ramdan in a few weeks. Judging from your dry mouth and thirst, I don't think I will be able to.

I won't be able to eat or, more importantly, drink anything from 6am to 6pm. Is a CKD possible in those circumstances? Also, I will be hitting my finals week towards the end fo the 4 week cutting phase, so will i have the brain power to focus?

Two very important questions. Thanks for the help.
