CD calorie intake????

[CLUCKS]

Hi Guyz
Question for the experts on CD - can you tell me what the calories are for the packs, if they're 140 then 3 packs is only 420cals a day???? Is this ok or a bit too low????
Thanks xxx

LOL I think that is the Idea of a Very Low Calorie Diet.
They are low in calories but stuffed with goodness so don't Panic there are loads of us who have survived it.

Yep basically those 3 packs (4 if you are male or over 5 ft 8) contain all the vitamins and nutrients you need. That's why even when you get into ketosis and are no longer feeling hungry you must have your three packs per day

Oh I thought there could be room for 1 more???

oh - hoped I might be able to squeeze a 3 course meal in on tope of em x

Lol well you could try!

 

[CLUCKS]

Well I'm not hungry - that's very true, think I'll check ketosis things tomorrow morning!

Just make sure you have your three packs - hungry or not!

Cheryl, I always got a bit hungry, not ravenous but hungry all the same. My ketosis wasn't brilliant, I didn't feel wonderful and full of energy, I guess it just doesn't work like that for some of us.

I think bars (other than the crunchy ones) are 170 odd calories.
