Exercise
Exercise is always a good idea EXCEPT when you are becoming fat adapted. During the first few weeks of
your keto adventure, you will probably find exercise very difficult. That’s because your body is adapting
to run on jet fuel (fat) instead of gasoline (carbs).
How will you know when you’re fat adapted? You will be a) not hungry and b) wanting to exercise. Your
body will tell you when it’s ready. Just listen.
Once your body gives you the green light, you most likely will WANT to exercise – a lot. No, really.
I never thought I would ever WANT to willingly exercise, but I do. I started the ketogenic diet in
February, 2016. For 7 months I didn’t do any intended exercise. I lost 76 pounds and reversed type 2
diabetes. I also got rid of my meds. All of them. No exercise.
After 7 months I got my recumbent tricycle out of the garage and started riding. Now I can’t get enough.
I’m hooked. It’s not hard anymore. I feel great. I’m not achy. I and I weigh 290 pounds! It’s frickin’
amazing.
So, lay low for a few weeks. When you feel like you HAVE to get up and move, do so.
