Steven C \(Doktersteve\) - 13 Jan 2004 05:02 GMT
For the first time ever, I went out and did a much more high intensity thing
at the gym, and actually got a complete (well, close to complete) body
workout.

Between cardio and weights, I wager I burned through perhaps 500 calories at
the gym.

I have taken in about 1100 calories, and I usually take in 1800 - I still
have one more dinner to go, which will bring me up to 1800 or so. I am ad
38g of carbs (probably more though), and I am STARVING for something,
anything.

What is happening here. Could it be that the hard workout (my first "real"
one) is doing this?

Very probably so.  I know I get tumbly rumbles after I work out.

I have only 3 flaws.  My first flaw is thinking that I only have 3 flaws.

It could be. I feel that same way after 30 minutes on the treadmill or
after swimming.

I find a couple protein snacks (like a couple boiled eggs or some
cottage cheese) and water generally helps take it away.

Another thing it could be is that i am actually starting to require more
calories, as a result of having more muscle. I should probably break down
and see a doctor and straighten this all out, however the idea of going to a
doctor and saying "i eat a ketogenic diet" does NOT appeal to me.

I doubt you've added any muscle yet, especially since you're not eating that
much. This is just part of the metabolic "jack up" one gets after weight
training.  Be happy for it.

Why?  Just say you've cut starches and sugar. That's all you've done anyway.
If you walk in with the notion that you're eating a "strange" diet, that's
the opinion the doctor will get, and s/he will respond accordingly.

Interesting comment. That door can swing both ways.

Btw, Zoul, you are doing a nice job with FakedoktorSteve but when he
calls you to change his diaper, best pass.

He may need constant attention and unnending support like an infant
but you should not X the line to nanny.

I wouldn't worry too much, when I work out hard I come back weak & wobbly &
STARVING, but a big drink of water & some tuna or a hard-boiled egg usually
makes me feel better right away.

Everyone has to start somewhere....why don't you help him some, too?

I tried. He blew me off.

"Oh, its the troll."

Like a lemming, he choose to follow not think on his own.

Wow. Like a troll, you chose to insult me without knowing any of the facts.
Between roger and my boss at work (who is a former personal trainer), and
the half dozen books i have read in the past month and a half, I am finally
getting a formal "program" down.

There is no reason to put down Roger and myself, unless you feel bad that
you are being left out somewhere, in which case, put your silly comments
away and feel free to help out.

Steven --

Mu exists to bring balance to the force....around here, you're just going to
have to live with him.  Unlike Darth Vader, he won't ever be turned from the
dark side :)

Her's a clue. I could have done it for you in thirty minutes.

>There is no reason to put down Roger and myself,

There is every good reason to call you to your senses.

No thanks. Back to ignoring you.

No matter what the reason, if you're hungry, EAT SOMETHNG, preferably protein
and/or fat - tuna, egg, cheese, etc.

Next time take a snack with you to the gym for afterward.

Could be many different reasons for you being hungry. Don't worry about them -
just eat from the allowable foods and carry on!!

I don't know about you, but on days that my fat % is higher and protein lower,
I get hungry.

If I keep fat to 50% or lower, and protein at 30-35%, I don't get hungry.

Higher fat and calories cause me to stall or gain weight.

Hey, I noticed this same thing with myself -- I meant to post about it.

I think nearer to 50 each % (slightly lower fat, more protein) works best
for me....

Bridget used to recommend (and i second her recommendation) plainly
cooked chicken and green salad, as much as you need to eat, to quell
those "starving hungries."
