I'm really glad you could join us Mr. Mackin!  Please keep us in the loop on how you are doing.  The ketogenic diet is one of my favorite topics.  Eating at or very near ketogenic levels has worked really well for me.

Dras... 12 degrees, man.  I don't think I've ever been in weather that cold.

There is a beauty to very cold weather... I've gone out ice climbing at -30F and the whole world is still... now being out in that weather in shorts strikes me as a bad idea. Kudos for the motivation though Dras.

I'll come in on this from week 3 (19 Jan):

2 x 1 mile swim
3 x gym cardio/weights

Aiming to get back down to 72Kg/159lbs from whatever I'm at on the 19th; probably around 75Kg/165lbs.

That's interesting Mackin. I've read a lot about it and how it could affect cancer cells among other good stuff. Keep us posted MF.

This is a good read on the topic too:
http://www.reddit.com/r/ketoscience/comments/22nlbu/is_there_a_role_for_carbohydrate_restriction_in/

That sub, /r/ketoscience/, actually has lots of info on keto as a cancer treatment.

Week 1!

15 miles running plus some pushups and a bit of hiking

That goal seemed so modest when I set it. Then laid low by a cold this week and a mega workday on an overdue project from 8am to 1am on Sat and I had to really rally this morning to get out and run before going for a walk with my wife. Ah... the power of a stated, public commitment!

Thanks for organizing again LM!

I am ducking out this round :(

Just back from a weeks skiing, and tore my calf on a small jump off piste.

Not too bad, so hoping to be back at least swimming in a couple of weeks, but it will be all rest for a bit now for me.

Great new start to the year folks. Looking good and motivated!

Sorry been madly busy.

My new commitment :

1. 3 times a week (Monday/Wednesday/Friday) exercise.
2. Stop drinking 8-12 pints on a Friday so that i'll stop feeling like crap all day Saturday.


Cheers,

Gary.
