    My weight is fluctuating quite a bit, even on the same day. I'm assuming it's about the same. I'm still keeping up with my new increase in intensity and feeling good. I'm finding that some objects that had previously seemed heavy are now incredibly easy to pick up and move around, really helps getting things done around the house. Also, despite my somewhat fragile knee it's become much easier to walk long distances. A mile long walk is no problem now, where as in the past maybe I'd need a day or so to recover before my knee would stop feeling sore.

    I didn't eat that much yesterday and now i lost 2kg!! I'm 6' 60kg quite thin eyy. I did pushed up or exercise everday last month in which it surprised me i gained weight! But after i tried going on a gym once my big bro invited me. We hit the gym for 4hours it did stunned me. Anyway after that my body hurt liked hell! I can't move my muscles. Oh right before that my right arm hurts i dont know why i cant straight it properly. After that day i forgot my daily routine which hurt me alot. I can 30+push up every 5sets already. But now i think i need to start over again. How sad

    Say, if the diet minimizes carbohydrate and increase fat to invoke ketosis, would 2 pounds per week still apply?

    I don't know much about exercise but daily strenuous exercise is not advisable. You injure (break down) muscles , you need a day at least to recover.

    I would imagine so, but I'm no dietician. The hard and fast rules I go with are: eat fewer Calories than burned, and keep it all simple (for both diet and exercise). If you can stick to a keto regimen that's great, I tried it and couldn't stick to the habit so I focused more on the math of Calories in versus Calories out.

    If you check the 'loseit' subreddit, you'll notice for the posts about successful weight loss journeys longer than a year, they average between 110-140 pounds per year for those with enough weight to lose, no matter what plan they follow.

    My knees been all kinds of trouble this last week. Hard to go to the gym when your leg feels painful to walk on. Seems like it has resolved itself to an acceptable level now though, I'll be going tomorrow and I'll try to take things easy on the legs. Funny theres a video out about skipping legday.

    I did artistic gymnastic for a long time, it was my way of having fun and being healthy.

    Going to a gym solely for the sake of doing exercise though? That is a no for me, way too boring.

    Nice, my friend was a gymnast for quite awhile. It's pretty crazy the kind of strength you need to do some of that stuff, its very good exercise. My parents put me in a gymnastic class as well when I was younger, but I was about the only boy in the class, so I quit and decided to play sports instead. I remember there were a lot of cartwheeling and balancing exercises.

    Well my workout routine went through a bit of a crisis in these last 2 weeks. I was getting into bed by putting my weight on my bad knee and it kind of popped awkwardly, and I popped it back into place quickly afterwards. The next week it was way out of whack and it almost seemed unstable or something, quite painful and I couldn't find it in myself to go to the gym. Luckily after a week everything seemed to have fixed itself, but I was no longer in my workout rhythm. I was also incredibly bad with planning out my time and didn't go to the gym for another full week. I'd say today is the day I'll get back over, but then I would waste my time until the gym finally closed and I couldn't go over. I felt very low on energy and frankly bad those 2 weeks where I didn't work out. Finally this morning I told myself I had better go today or else when the heck was I going to start working out again? Made it over there, did a full workout and even added on a few additional exercises. The knee felt great and I got in a very good workout, did everything at full strength although I did cut back on my walking by about 10 minutes.

    Only benefit I really had from this break is that all my muscles got very well rested and built up. Working out breaks them down after all, so any muscle damage that I may not have noticed definitely got repaired during these 2 weeks, but I'm glad I'm finally back over there and can continue working on my goals.

    Also now my elbows is extremely sensitive just like it was before I started working out, very weird. Didn't get in the way of my workout, but near the end I pushed off of something awkwardly and my elbow was in instant agony. Idk what I did to that sucker, but I figure if I go easy on it for awhile and make sure I don't sleep on it it should improve. Maybe tendonitis or something.
