Q1: If I am competing in an anaerobic fitness event (like Strongman), how should I fuel prior to and the day of the event? I typically train fasted, but wonder if my strength suffers a bit due to heavy weightlifting being so anaerobic…

Still early Benefits: body composition, ketones may preserve muscle mass Downside: takes longer to break up fat for fuel, but via gluconeogenesis I would not think this is an issue

Q2:

I just want to know how the hell to deal with indulgences without feeling guilty.

Wish we had this one figured out, too.... Mantra. Have One Mantra to return to (Pete’s is “Try to be a little bit better today than yesterday”) Walk through birthday party example: “There was cake and I didn’t have willpower to say no. Then I felt guilty about the cake”

Don’t say “I’m never going to do that again”. Lapse, relapse, collapse. Allow yourself to “grieve” in the moment but set a timer for a few minutes. Once the time goes off, you have to close the book on that moment. It happened, it’s in the past. Recognizing where the guilt is coming from. Is it comparison? Keto-comparison/ fasting-comparison / FB comparison / Remember that Social media is nothing more than image management.

Q3: Should people with Hashimoto Thyroid disease refrain from the ketogenic lifestyle? If not, how many grams of carbs or what % Of carbs would you suggest starting them with?

Emmy will tackle this one...

Q4:Is it possible for someone with a gastric sleeve to be successful on LCHF diet?

Pay attention to nutrient density however Nutrient deficiencies and dehydration are a major problem with surgery B vitamins especially. Eat your eggs :) Eat things rich in nutrients such as quality meats
