A good day. Fasted longer and ate good Keto. 85.7kgs

 Sunday 85.7 kgs

Gonna be brief tonight because I am tired.

Today was a good day.  I had a plan about how it was going to go and I stuck to it.  I drank black coffee and was fine apart from about half an hour when Mum and I were at the garden centre and I could feel my head go a bit fuzzy and I could feel my eyes going out of focus.  I had some pink salt and eventually it resolved.  A clue here is that we went off shopping and were walking around the shopping centre so it may have been that getting moving helped shake it off.  This kind of supports my thoughts about drinking coffee when we are out on the bike.  Anyway we got home at 3.30 pm and I had a snack of cheeses and prawns and broke my 20.5 hour fast.  All really good.  Tonight I had two fillet steaks with some salad and then closed my window.  I've been saving up the brine from the olives so am happy to try that tomorrow.  

I've started taking some Vit D2 and Vit K2 tabs and also some Magnesium tabs so I am hoping they start to take my aches and pains away.  I also got a blood glucose monitor and have been taking that.  So it seems that my after eating rate is 5-5.4.  However this morning when I got up it was 4.8.  I think that might be a bit low.

Tomorrow I can eat from 11.30 am doing 16-8 but I think I'll go till 1 or 2.30.  We'll see how I feel and if the brine works.

Anyway I feel good and I'm slowly losing weight and that's all that matters.

Today I am grateful for

The lovely things I bought today at the garden centre.  Shorts, room perfumes, and a fly swatter.

Being back in control.

Week 5 and dose increase - 89kgs 14 st

 Gosh this is so tough.  I read all these people who are losing shed loads of weight and have no food noise and have to force themselves to eat.  If only! I have learned a saying whilst on the FB grou0s and that is 'Comparison is the theif of joy'.  This is so true.  I'll tell you something else that is the their of joy...l the bloody scales.  There is nothing more guaranteed to make you feel like crying than that square foot of glass.  But hey ho it is what it is. So today is the first of the 5mg dose.  I have to admit I am scared and really i had planned to take it yesterday but kept putting it off.  This morning I knew I had to do it and so I did the full 5ml into my belly.  I had been toying with the idea of doing a 3/4 dose but I am paying all this money to lose weight and it needs to bloody happen, otherwise it's just a waste of time and money.  There is still some liquid in the 2.5ml pen and I feel passed off that I might hav...

Week 6 - 5mg - 88.3kgs 13 st 12lb Read this often!!

 It's not exactly going fast.  I find it so disheartening when I read the massive losses people are having on the lower dose and on this dose but in only a couple of weeks.  It is what it is.  I am not exercising but I am so fucking tired all the time. I don't seem to have the energy for exercise.  I am trying to be careful about calorie intake and also protein but maybe I am not as careful as I could be.  I am not starving and I am trying to make this a way of eating that is sustainable.  I don't want to be not eating bread for the rest of my life.  If I want a bit of bread then I can have it after of course considering how the day is going. I weighed myself 2 days ago and I was 87.2kgs.  OMG I wanted to cry.  Sadly it didn't last as you can see from the numbers at the top.  I do reckon that alcohol is something which affects my weight loss.  I have not drunk wine and only had spirits with water.  Either vodka or spiced r...

Week 2 - 90 kgs 14 st 2lbs

 Week 2 Last week was quite surprising as I really had no side effects but also didn't have any positive effects like food noise reducing.   Well I don't think I did.   I did eat more healthily though.  I ate what I wanted and had bread and chocolate but not in excess and I think am thinking about food differently.   A couple of times I have left food on my plate, and a couple of times I have thrown food away where normally I would have forced myself to finish whatever was on my plate and I would definitely have put it in the fridge for later.  The scales have gone down but as they are mechanical scales it's hard to say exactly how much.  Today I took a photo of the scales so that I can compare. I think I have lost 2lbs but that is fine because at no time was I feeling like I was on a diet or deprived.
