Yeah about 3 days in I got a headache and felt a litle off. I went to Korean BBQ this weekend, tho and didn't realize until after the meal that the lettuce salad vinagarette has sugar in the recipe. I didn't have too much of it but I went over 30g carbs that day so I think another flu may be coming in the next few days when I really get back on.
Aw. I think that's why mine probably came and went and then came back again. I went to BBQ at my dads and ate a burger but didn't think what was in the patty. So I worry that may have tipped me over.
I've read that you can stay under 50g in carbs but if you want to positive stay under 20 or 25g.
Yeah, my buddy was surprised that I was targeting 20 because he was doing under 50 for his keto diet. I just want to be awash in ketones asap, haha. Going all out!
Do you count sugar alcohols as full carbs, half carbs, or no carbs? I have seen a lot of people take a different approach to it. Or base their choice on the GI of each individual sugar alcohol.
Hmm. Honestly, I hadn't thought about those. We've been eating a lot of things made from scratch as of late. To be sure, I've tried to just avoid anything sugary. I'll have to do some research. Lately, it's just been keeping track of carbs in general.
Found this link. Gonna do some more research. What are you doing?
I have just been counting them as full carbs. Some of them have basically zero in the GI but I can never recall which ones are which so I just try to avoid them. But my chewing gum has 2g of sorbitol and I hate to have to switch, haha. It's my favorite gum!
