Over Carbed (cheated) and did not lose Ketosis
I over carbed early yesterday from some not-so-good news I learned yesterday and of course, let my emotional eating take over. I had Ice Cream and Doritos at around 1pm (lunchtime). Within a short time after, I felt PO'd at myself for eating this junk so I drank lots and lots of water and continued to eat low carb/higher fat for the rest of the afternoon/evening. I even went to exercise to try to burn off these carbs. Before going to bed I tested - I was registering small on the stix.
Just a short while ago (after CURVES this morning); I tested again. Medium Purple and I never lost my ketosis symptoms.
My carb count for yesterday was 70 (day).
Could it be that because of the exercise and the water I can go to such a level of carbs (CCL) daily without falling out of ketosis?
Don't get me wrong - this is NOT going to be something I do but it is good to know that this mistake did not cost me too much.
