Intermittent Fasting & Keto: How to handle cheat day weight gain?

The good news is that fasting and the ketogenic way of eating can really help you lose weight, gain confidence, feel great, lose pants sizes, etc.

Unfortunately, when you introduce processed food and carbs well over 20 to 50 carbs several things happen which can be discouraging:

1. Kick you out of ketosis.
2. The scale can read 4 to 7 pounds heavier the next morning than the low number you recently achieved.
3. Feelings of anger (at yourself), disbelief, frustration and confusion. How can days or weeks of good work be erased in one bad day?

So what to do?

1. First thing to do is to relax and take a deep breath.
2. Cheating once in a while is normal
3. Use your feelings of anger, etc to help you decide in the future if you want to eat all those carbs if it’s likely to set you back a couple of days? In other words is the food worth it if it will take a couple of days to get back below your recent low weight?
4. Recognize that the jump in weight is mostly water and will come off once you re-engage in keto/fasting
5. Perform and overnight (36 hour) fast to reboot.

How IoT is Disrupting Everything

In case you haven’t heard, the internet of things (alongside and with big data and advanced AI) is one of the most exciting technical developments of our times. Right now, our phones are connected to the internet, our laptops are connected to the internet, and many of us even have our televisions connected to the internet.
The IoT revolution envisions a world where everything is connected to the internet: thermostats, cars, backpacks, bus stations, necklaces, sidewalks, buildings, and even some day, people. Below is a breakdown of 4 industries that will be disrupted by IoT, and a glimpse of what the disruption might look like

Consumers

The aspect of IoT that has received the most attention is it’s applications for the everyday consumer. Refrigerators that know when you’re out of orange juice and so place an order for some more on Amazon, thermometers that you can control from your phone, glasses that display a digitally enhanced reality. Some have heralded the death of consumer IoT, but what these individuals are really speaking to is a slow-down in the development of “smart home” IoT...

Data Dharma: The Fourfold Path of Big Data

Over the past decade alone, big data analytics (BDA) has seen huge leaps economically, technologically, and theoretically. At some point in the future, businesses and individuals will be feeling the benefits of big data in a truly big way. But if companies hope to get the most of BDA, they're going to need to approach it with a fourfold path in mind.

1. Right Data

Times used to be that companies really wanted to limit the data that they were looking at. After all, people and machines used to be fairly limited in as much as they could process and draw meaningful conclusions. With the advent of cloud computing, advanced AI, and a more data-educated workforce, being able to process the sheer volume of data is no longer a limiting factor....

But at the same time, VC money can also be the death sentence for the dream that an entrepreneur believe so much in. In this presentation, Mark Juviler takes a look at the downsides of going VC.
