Harvie: Looks like my graphs when I try to move up, anyway it's all part of the game, if it were easy everyone would be a poker player. Keep up the grind, keep playing more games and it will even out in the end.
200g is a lot, I aim for 100g< per day.
Oh absolutely, I mean over such a small sample that graph really says very little but I did recognise a general toughening of the games. The fish were way more reluctant to part with their chips and the regs just seemed to have way less mistakes, but that is to be expected!
200g is a fair amount but at the same time, if it comes from eating basically lots of veg, seeds, nuts, good meats and very little bread/grains then it seems a good starting point!
To be honest when I'm calculating carbs in meals I tend to overestimate so I'm assuming my actual intake is lower than my reported. For the time being my plan is to just try to have a significant stretch of clean-eating where I don't go off the rails for a week and abuse myself with takeaways. Once I have acquired the discipline to do that, maybe I'll start being a bit more intense and start weighing my food to get really accurate measurements.
I've also read a lot about intermittent fasting being a good way to enter a state of ketosis, and the reasons advocates give do make a whole lot of sense. This three square meals a day with snacks is very much a modern invention.
