[QUOTE="Joe Sixpack, post: 153539, member: 12676"] Sorry it took so long to reply [USER=19076]@JimBob[/USER]. I went very low carb starting 1/1/2019. I eat less than 50 total grams carb / day. On a net carb basis it is usually 35 or less. Many days I am at 30 grams of net carb. The low carb diet has been a real pain in the rear to get right. My physical performance suffered immensely and I was always very tired. I have recently discovered that I was doing 2 things wrong. #1, I was getting around 300g of protein/day. Way too much for me. I need to be below 200g. #2, I was not getting enough salt. I need to consume 3 teaspoons a day in order to feel right. My gym performance has gotten much better since making these 2 changes. I have noticed that since I have lowered my protein intake, that my blood sugar has been behaving much better. With the higher protein, even while being super low carb, my blood sugar would climb into the 120's after eating. Now it stays under 110. [/QUOTE]
