If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

I exercise vigorously and regularly.
After eating NSD for about 1-2 weeks I began bonking during exercise. Felt ok during other daily activities.
Feels like I need some level of complex carbohydrate to avoid this.
Anyone have experience with this and/or any suggestions.
Thanks!
Val

Are you eating plenty of vegetables and protein? This could help.
Do you eat sugar? This could be a problem.
Try eating a spoonful of coconut oil before exercise, then take a hot bath and little nap after.
Are you getting a good nights sleep? Make time for relaxation or meditation during the day.
I keep a jar full of chunks of coconut oil in the refrigerator. First I drop about 1/2 teaspoon size chunks on a cookie sheet and chill. When they are hard, then I transfer to a mason jar. I can just pop these in my mouth anytime.

Thanks for your ideas, Jeanne.
Think I'm getting enough protein/vegies.
Do eat refined sugar. I'll cut back or eliminate.
Sleeping much better (current problem - neck pain improved) Do meditate.
Will experiment with coconut oil.

When I exercise very vigorously, I find I need a source of quick sugar. Fruit juice works well. You might try some grape juice before exercise and some more during.

In a month or two your body will get more used to it - but the fruit juice is a great idea.

I was really tired at the beginning too. But I don't notice that anymore. I guess your body just adjusts and learns to burn fat as fuel instead.
Give praise for what you have and keep working for what you want.
