As long as you built up to your current workout and have been
doing it for a while you aren't overtraining.


When someone is doing 5K runs and then suddenly runs a marathon it's called
overreaching, not overtraining.

Either case you want a regime that is easy to maintain in the long run.
This is a life Style choice, not a short term 3 month program that you quit
completely after losing 10 pounds.

I completely agree to that, I hope I will have the courage to keep the
life style especially when the winter is coming.. actually i felt
today because i couldnt resist the temptation of eating 2 bacon+swiss
cheese melt in lunch.. I was going pretty good (i mean healthy) until
i ate that.. I knew that i should have stopped at pasta and not take
that foccaccio thing. it is not that bad though there is lot of
protein in bacon and cheese but lots of fat too.. eheh it should be ok
to enjoy some bad habits from time to time..

Posting on a low carb support group you should have
"stopped the pasta". No *at* the pasta. Pasta is junk
food just like that sugar crap in your drink. You're
definitely in the wrong group eating junk noodles.

A point on newbiness - This is UseNet not text
messaging. Each has its own traditions and you're
clearly a newby on UseNet as well as on dieting topics.
On UseNet spell it out for real. It's "newby" not "noob".
There are many types of newbiness here not just diet
issues.

I a gree about my newbiness BUT i think that pasta was pretty healthy
because it was low on fat and high on protein and also had lots of
vegetables in it. It also included the high carbohydrate to keep my
muscles and brain nourished until the next meal. And I drank coke zero
so I did not have any sugar crap in my drink, actually I cannot
tolerate any of the regular soft drink any more because of high sugar
content.. But I have to admit that coke zero has much more worse stuff
in it.. You people reading this group (I mean low-carb group) do not
eat any pasta? Do you think pasta is garbage food? It can be made
garbage food (if you put lots of garbage in it) but I think pasta
itself not because pasta has lots of good stuff in it.

Most low carbers don't eat pasta because it causes blood sugar to spike.
What makes you think that eating anything made of flour is good for you?

Pasta itself is all carbs, just slow sugar, the things you put on it can be
good but you don't need pasta to eat them. A lot of us use spaghetti squash
as a substitute. Pasta doesn't contain much in the way of good nutrients,
vitamins, antioxidants. Vegetables and fruit are a much better expenditure
of a carb budget. What is it that you think made your pasta high in
protein?

The protein was from cheese and chicken in the pasta. It also had
fiber (wheat stuff in pasta).

Ok my bad, pasta is all bad for you if you are on low carb diet.

Maybe I should cut back on pasta.

What "good stuff" is in pasta? It basically turns to sugar the minute
you start eating it.

I don't know if it's all bad for you. It's certainly all bad for me.

Fat is not bad for you, sugar is the killer!
