I messed up

Playing tennis today and I started eating Tums because of my stomach. Didn’t even think about carbs until after the game. It was a 3hour match so I am sure I ate at least 10. I’m going to just continue but my question is what, if anything, this will affect? We won though :grin:

Winning is everything :wink:. I have not a scooby-doo about the tums except to say that I know they have a lot of sugar but you probably burned it off while playing for that long.

My assorted berry, generic tums have 1 g sugar per tablet. I hope this helps and remember, tomorrow is a new day.

Also, why are you eating so many tums? Heartburn?

Only 10 g of carbs, after playing tennis for three hours I doubt it will even be a blip. You’re fine, don’t worry.

It was playoffs and my nerves were crazy. I am wondering if you go out of ketosis for a day, does that mean you start over. I’ve just been on it a week so I’m just learning.

You can always go make an Awesome PSA for Tums Or YT video next time?
just use your Post s it will go viral

“ Game Set Match - winning is everything with Tums “:smile:

I’m no help, sorry :sweat:
Any Who
It’s just one day, you will be fine

Good Luck!

So you double faulted on a few Tums. Just make your next serve an ace. This type of unforced error is an easy fix. :wink:

Actually, just getting the ball in play and keeping it in play would be fine :slight_smile:

And learning the rules :slight_smile:

I agree - no effect. Really small amount of carbs spaced out over an intense (winning) physical activity - shouldn’t even be counted or worried about - would not have come close to raising insulin and putting your body in a fat storage mode.

Just forget it and move on. You can’t take them back out of your body so no stress needed.

Thanks everyone. Love the support.

No, truly not, not even close. :slightly_smiling_face: Even if had been ten times that many carbohydrates, we’d be talking about a slight pause, perhaps, in your progress, nothing more.

Thanks. My husband and I were talking about it a little. He’s been on keto for couple of months and didn’t think so but was unsure.
