I’ve lost my LCHF diet mojo. I started to drill into the minutiae of percentages of Fat, Carbs and Protein. I think I more or less got that right, but then on advice tried upping my fibre intake. I was advised a man of my height and age should imbibe between 30 to 35 grams each day.
I have managed to up my fibre to about 20 grams/day and I can feel the benefit of it, but my Carb intake has almost doubled. The weight is not coming off so fast now. It is sort of hovering around the same. Unless I double the amount of veg I am eating I don’t see how I could munch 35 grams of fibre per day. To me fibre seems to equal carbs.
To top it off I have contracted my first cold of the winter. So am feeling pants at the moment. Of course I am hiding the fact it’s just a cold from Lulu Lowcarb. I told her it was a bad case of man flu. Well at least that gets me a cup of tea in bed in the morning, instead of being the first up to make it. My LCHF regime has gone a bit wobbly, I will stick with the extra fibre at least until my cold goes, opps I mean man flu.
