What's your take on my cholesterol?
Greetings fellow 4HB enthusiasts, So after 2 solid months of 4HB, and 3 months on and off, I finally had some blood work done, and I wanted to get some feedback on my results. My total choleste...

Growing up, diet and exercise was never an issue of great importance in my household. While obesity was never an issue, neither was staying fit. In essence, we are your typical American family. ...
Re: 8+ Months (Advice Needed)
The biggest piece of advice I can give is to implement one thing at a time. Start up SCD for a week (or even two) and then start training kettle-bells or whatever the next step is for you. I think...
Re: A good motto I came up with. Can anyone think of similar things in better contexts?
We have a very simple one from the Thai Boxing Association of the USA: "Keep going." ~ Ajarn Chai
Re: Best food to take before workout
It really is all personal preference. I know some people that like to run/lift right out of bed without any food in their system. Others like to wolf down a massive sandwich or pasta. If you are f...
Re: 2-week results
AWESOME! Keep going fren!
Re: How long should I rest?
Ideally you need to at least have a day's rest in between workouts unless you are working upper and lower body on separate days. Example: Chest and Arms on Monday, Legs and Back on Tuesday. Stretc...
I would try to make the transition to free-weights-- They encourage natural motion-- Machines severely restrict your range of motion and can actua...
Simply Slow Carb
I started writing this as a recipe however it turned into a small cooking guide so to speak. I feel that although simplicity is absolutely key to SCD, a lot of it is very complicated. We see recip...
Re: 4 Week Results ...
Do you do the machine options or the free-weight options?
Hey Allison, toss me an email @ riot.thesauce@gmail.com -- Had a few questions if you wouldn't mind taking them!
Re: Are these results good?
I'd take a 2% BF lost per week. Not only did you lose weight but since you have your BF numbers, you've actually lost ~2lbs of solid fat. Usually you lose a lot of muscle as well with traditional ...
Re: New to 4HB Book, Need Serious Help!
You need to eat legumes and lots of them. IMO don't worry about eggs v egg whites. Just eat the damn things! Since you have a considerable gap between breakfast and lunch, maybe a handful of almon...
Re: Not losing weight - just under 4mths
Describe your Kettle bell workout. Also, I would suggest lifting. See if a local gym offers personal training and get 1 or 2 sessions in to learn proper form. Really simple-- Squat, Bench, and Pul...
Re: Blasted Safety Drain!
Walmart has massive heavy duty garbage cans. I'm 6'0 and can fit inside so that's what I would recommend!
Re: kettlebells?
I felt that Tim said he started with 53 lbs, and just increased the amount of reps, rather than weight. FYI-- Kettle bells are decently cheap online but they absolutely murder you with shipping c...
Back to college, back to starting weight
I've found it extremely difficult to stick to the SCD here at school without a kitchen, especially with my hectic schedule. I started the diet in the summer, cooking all of my own meals and bein...

Re: Is it normal to feel bloated?
The legumes might be causing some digestion hiccups such as gas build up, etc. Try subbing out less legumes for a considerable increase in meat / veggies. It won't simply be a 1:1 ratio-- make sur...
Re: Greek Yogurt?
'Tis dairy so as per the SCD, no.
Re: Whoo woke up with leg cramp!
Drink more water!
I wouldn't use lentils for this recipe. There are so few ingredients that a it's more than just a textural difference. I'd stick with other variet...
Hives after running?
I ran today for the first time in a while. As soon as I got home, my scalp began to itch, as well as my arm pits and torso where my clothing had been. The hives were HUGE, and it spread to my enti...
Re: TIP: Vegetarian/pescatarian SCD meal on the road
The first ingredient in the red sauce at Taco Bell is modified corn starch, the second is maltodextrin. Here's a full list of the ingredients in everything on Taco Bell's menu.
Make sure you take a day off in between this. We are working over 60% of your muscles and you won't do them any good by beating them to a pulp. Tr...
I would recommend going as free weight as possible, even though you mentioned being afraid of hurting yourself. Squat with a bar, dumbbell bench p...
Now as far as your lifting routine is concerned, lemme recommend a regiment and maybe you can try it for at least a month and see how it goes. Rea...
I use Gold Standard Casein (it was on special at GNC In terms of your work out, lemme propose a few changes and you can take from them what you w...
Haha agreed. However when you are plating up dinners for wedding patrons at $100 a person, kinda nervous to risk the "More salt?" soluti...
Re: Do I weigh myself and advice on the last 10 Ibs
I personally don't weigh myself -- I'd opt to just hit SCD/training hard and check back in a few weeks (doing just that right now ) -- However you may wanna weigh yourself to see how your body han...
Re: On SCD, but going to the gym, feeling tired
Welcome to the club bub! Nice numbers lost. I'm sorta in the same boat. I strength train and practice Muay Thai with running about 3-4 days per week while trying to follow SCD and I get pretty bea...
Re: 4 wks in and only lost half an inch
Do you exercise at all?
The red pepper beans sound delicious! I was hoping someone would get creative and post their variation
Re: Member intro: Pumped!
Hi Liz
Yeah, I'd say longer than you'd expect... I also made them pretty small. It gets easier as the pan gets hotter.
