I honestly just got back to exercise. I couldn't do it for the first few weeks as my body was feeling weak and blah. I started hiking again as I let my gym membership lapse, and I go with a pretty high heart rate and lots of hills. I had a pretty good weekend with 2 hikes (even after falling down a hill, ow, and silly blisters), and it is reflecting in my weight loss.
I still feel like I can't run yet, and I don't honestly want to with the heat. I have my lunch protein drink right after and it really helps and I don't feel guilty refueling my body if I need another packet or more veggies. |
I just got back to my tread mill yesterday. I am almost finished with week four and I was just feeling too tired all the time. I only walked 1/2 mile yesterday and one mile today. I would like to get back up to two miles this week. I have never been a serious workout type. I have discovered that walking a couple miles every morning before work gives me lots of extra energy throughout the day.
I must say that prior to this week, I physically did not feel like I could even walk a mile. I think it took my body this long to adjust to IP. I am sure we are all different, but I definitely needed three weeks to adjust. Anyway, that's my story. Not much to report, but I am certainly on the up side of this diet!:) |

i think (and purely my opinion, no medical facts here) physical activity is important, it is just that the IP program is quite low on calories, and of course carbs which is what we really need to fuel our energy during physical activity. the low calories are not good if you are only getting 800-1000 from the IP food and burning 600-700 in an hour of physical activity, hence the reluctance for our coaches to embrace physical activity while on this diet! :) |

I had a 2hr pretty heavy hike yesterday and it knocked me out of ketosis according to my strips this morning. However, I think I just burned all the ketones out of my body and had nothing left to pee out.
However, my strips have been less than reliable lately, and I'm still losing weight (well, not from yesterday to today, but you know what I mean) so I don't really want to give up the hiking 2-3x a week at least in the summer :) |
