I'm considering that actually. I generally run at 6.30pm but its getting dark and too many druggies smoking in the park which I am not fond of running near.

I think 5.30am would be pretty good, but my body is usually aching when I wake up. Do you have any issues in getting the body to wake up... I guess you have more energy through the day? (I feel great after running).

Yup, carb addiction is real. Your body is just asking for carbs. It took me around 1 month to stop the cravings. Now I can look at my family eating sweets and bread and I couldn't care less.

Anyway, you can make the transition easier by paying attention to electrolyte balance and eating veggies. If you want to try the carnivore 0 carb diet, I strongly recommend that you first do 1 month of keto with a lot of healthy veggies. Once your body is used to a very low carb intake, you can go one step further with the carnivore diet. I'm personally quite happy with the keto diet (and I like veggies, no reason to stop eating those).

So, I have this weird thing where I go to bed at the same time and wake up the see time almost instantly for both, almost all the time. When I'm up, I'm up. 5:30 runs are not hot, hardly anyone is in your way, and the starlight and Moon are amazing to behold as you run. And I do feel amazing! I would workout after work, but my job is pretty stressful and I often don't have the motivation after work. Also it's hot out and I don't like running in the heat.

I walk a lot as a teacher, so I run Monday-Thursday morning then no workout Friday but I walk a lot then. Then I do a hike  (with mywifew) or a 5k hard run on Saturday,followed by a total chill day on Sunday.

I dont mind the heat too much, done a lot of runs recently, it can make you feel "not bothered".. but trying to push past that right now.

Just think that I can keep out of peoples way that early in the morning, that includes dog walkers who are idiots who leave their dogs off the leash and let them run right in front of me... but I think it means that I am not waiting till the end of the day to get it over and done with. When I was working away from home I actually didnt mind running at 5-7pm as it meant staying in a hotel wasn't that bad as it would make me tired, but working from home, I just feel that getting it done that early would mean not having to think about getting ready to run. It might also help if I need to up the miles a bit and could still run in the evening if I need to double up.

Looks like you've convinced me... :D

Let's say somebody is a real fatso of about 250 lbs and 40% bodyfat. Our hypothetical dieter also doesn't get any exercise ever, and doesn't intend to. What happens when we use the following macronutrient calculator to find out how much protien and carbs this guy needs to be on a diet. https://www.muscleforlife.com/macronutrient-calculator/ Well, if you put the numbers into this calculator this dude needs 1622 calories a day, 300 grams of protien, and 0 carbs. Why 0 carbs? Because he doesn't exercise at all, and is so fat that the only way to hit his 1622/300 calorie/protein goal is to eat nothing but protein. Now suppose this guy decides to get 5 hours of exercise per week.

Well suddenly, he needs 85 carbs and 1990 calories a day to be on a diet. His carb and calorie needs shot up, because he started exercising. Protein remained the same. 

Now, what happens if this guy goes down to 200 lbs with 20% bodyfat? Well, at this point, even without exercise he needs 1708 cals, 97 carbs, and 240 grams of protein a day. If he exercises 5 hours a week then his carb and calorie needs shoot up to 2096 calories and 194 carbs. 

What happens if this same guy drops down to 10% bodyfat, at 180 lbs, and starts to go into a bulk phase, with regular exercise? Well now he needs 426 carbs a day, 2911 calories, and 180 grams of protein. 

My point is that how many carbs you need a day depends on your body composition, and how much you are exercising. People that find success on the low carb/no carb diet are usually seriously overweight and sedentary (so they need no carbs), or unintentionally sneaking 70-85 carbs into their no carb diet, turning it into a proper diet on accident. 

P.S.

Pemalite said he is on a no carb diet and bulking, but bulking is completely different than dieting, and I have no clue about the specifics of his regimen. 

I eat a cup of green beans and peas for my Fiber. - But I don't eat that every night. Probably should.
You know what else has anti-oxidants though? Coffee. I love my Coffee.

I am on a Keto diet. Have been for over a year now... The gains I have had has been great.
The best part? All my vitals are in a normal/above normal range as I keep in regular contact with my doctor, dietician and personal trainer.

Meat and Eggs has Vitamin C in it.
But it is not difficult to take some multi-vitamins.

You aren't wrong, but if you are having the right supplements, it's a non-issue.

There are entire tribes of people who live in the arctic regions who only live on a carnivorous diet as they obviously can't grow crops in snow... And also have some of the longest life expectancy's in the world.
Obviously they have a genetic/evolutionary disposition to such a diet, so for us heathens, it's a good idea to supplement our diets.

Indeed. Hence why it's usually a good idea to shy away from generalized statements.

Exercise is stupidly important.
However... If your goal is to loose weight, then diet is probably the most important factor.

At the end of the day though... It's all about the calories in/out.

If you want to build muscle mass then lots of Protein is a must... Plus supplement with Creatine Monohydrate.

Well. Not exactly. We took advantage of the food sources for any given geographical location.
There are areas of the world where people are extremely limited in their dietary choices.

Fruits are also very carb/sugar/caloric heavy, so may not be a good idea depending on what your goals are.

And don't fall for the fruit juice scam either.

Thought about joining a Gym? No. I am not talking about a Pokemon Gym either.
Gyms here are open 24/7 and have a ton of equipment.

Cardio is fantastic, but if you feel there is a risk, then avoid the risk.

What veggies are you eating?

As a rule of thumb I avoid any that:
1) Grow underground.
2) Brightly coloured.

As they tend to be more carb heavy than others.

You are right on the money.

As for bulking... If you want to bulk properly, you need a proper diet and you need a proper exercise regimen to take advantage of it.

Replace fast food meat with home gas grilled meat. Fry frozen vegetables in a frying pan and balance your diet. For the last be of god!

Hi, I'm a doctor and I'm here only to say maybe you'll lose weigh for a while, but you're killing yourself in long term and probably recovering your weigh in future. Have a nice day and get information from trustworthy sources.

Sigh, Spurge, I like you, but you make really weird decisions sometimes. Get off this diet. It's a bad idea. You're going to kill your heart doing this long term, and in the short term you'll harm your gallbladder and liver. Not to mention since you're focusing on so many processed meats like sausage, you're liable to give yourself bowel cancer. That much cholesterol is terrible, the processed meat, fast food, and cheese will all have too much salt, which will be bad for your blood pressure, and the grease and fat will be terrible for your digestive system all at once, not to mention you're going to end up a real fatass eating like that. And to eat all that and not feel satisfied? Why bother?

Kill cook and eat plants and animals. Stretch Exercise and fornicate. Drink water and sugar free Gatorade. Shit after every meal. And definitely fall in love.

That’s the best advice I can give you.
