GaHBee Gabi Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 Hi everyone! So, I've always longed to call myself a runner. I'm 39 and it just never happened. I've always struggled with my weight, but I've had the internal drive & motivation to get fit again. Now that my son is 8 months, I'm ready to move. For 25 days I haven't eaten any carbs and I feel amazing. I'm losing weight and getting compliments on my weight loss. I have so much energy that I want to capture this moment & begin a jogging regimen. This site is very motivating! Any tips for a new runner? Do I need to start eating carbs for this? I'm afraid to, I love my results! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torus_ot Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 Human body needs carbs, fats and proteins. The proportion of these are different from person to person (metabolism is different). So if you feel good - try to stay with this diet, but do not get fanatically obsessed with it. You will need more calories when running, that is obvious. PS "For 25 days I haven't eaten any carbs" - I cannot imagine this, I will not be able to do this. Can you describe your diet? No fruits, no bread, no ice-cream, no even vegetables ?

Crystalboa Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 I am new to this app. 5 years ago I would jog 5 kms a day but I had an accident and broke my leg. I had lost 70lbs jogging. I was recently diagnosed with diabetes in June and have lost 36 pounds. I have been walking twice a day but I think I need to step things up abit. I am also looking into gastric bypass surgery. I have made up my own diet. .high protein. .low carb..low fat..no sugar diet and it seems to be go..ing great. .thank you for listenin..hoping you chat with a few of you!

ColorGuardGirl2020 Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Your body needs carbs... if you want to keep losing weight but still run just eat three meals a day but for dinner eat at 6:00 and eat a dinner with no carbs... for ex. Two eggs with a little cheese, no carbs all protein, and the next morning if you did good youll be an average of two lbs less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
