todays post will be about carbs. Moderating carbs.

Is there any benefit is stop eating carbs after 5pm ? say

Gym went well today, did 8x 20s HIT

Tuesday morning will be next session.

Focus on supplements is on fat loss, and thyroid.

Carb cutoff

as with emotional eating, I find evenings after hard days work toughest.
In evening feel like stocking up after mental stress.

Combating stress is great plan, stress stimulates adrenaline, and if stuck at computer desk most of day, this
can be problem

plan is to go for walk shortly after getting home from walk , 2 to 3 miles, this will burn off the cortisol, and relax before having something to eat for dinner

I think one of the biggest reasons some find it harder to lose weight is insulin resistance. Too many sugars, simple carbs have over loaded the cells, and insulin loses it efficacy.

Also, thyroid function is severely impaired in some people. So of course genetics plays a huge part. My mum had thyroid issues, I know mine is sluggish too.

Reasons your metabolism is slow

above article has some good pointers. Why is some can seem to eat what they want, and others try their socks off trying to lose few ounces, there has to be biological reasons at play and metabolic reasons.

I cannot emphasize the importance of eating for nutrition.

For me, I know I will have to throttle back on carbs, focus on insulin resistance, using supplements to nudge the metabolism in the right direction. Chromium has good prospect for IR. CLA has good chance for stubborn fat loss and IR.

Dont eat too late at night. Watch your carbs. If you can exercise every day, even if 2 mile walk. But, aim for at least every other day.

Keep protein on mind, good sources. Watch out for too many snacks, sweets. Comfort eating.
