Been that way for a long time . What year is it in Brisbane at the moment ? <| sep |> Like I said , I chose it for the fat cell thing . I theorize that fat cells , even when empty , do some hormonal business that makes it difficult to sustain weight loss . Total nut job theory on my part . I don ' t think I would have difficulty doing straight keto , but I ' ve never tried . Every weekday I start with coffee with a spoonful of coconut oil . I alternate between keto chow , burrito bowls at chipotle , bowls of chili , tuna , broccoli , spinach , steak , beef sticks , and not much else for meals . I ' m about eight weeks in from beginning CN . On carb nite I was eating pizzas , but now I ' ve settled on a dinner with rice andor potatoes , and macaroni and cheese made with some plain fat free yogurt . And maybe some other stuff if I feel like it . So , I think I keep it pretty clean . I ' m currently doing StrongLifts , but I ' m not throwing any serious weight around yet . I weigh myself nearly daily , I think it ' s pretty essential to handle the weight fluctuations .
