I wanted to take my measurements this morning, so I did. Last time I took them was just five days ago when I started this little keto-venture. But I was curious!
It's hard to take a crapload of measurements on oneself, so I stuck with four: waist, abs, hips,and right thigh.
Monday, May 14, 2012
waist 31", abs 35", hips 42.5", thigh 24.5"
Saturday, May 19, 2012
waist 30.5", abs 32.5", hips 42", thigh 24"
Whoot! 2.5 inches off my abs in 5 days! and half an inch off the other three. I'll take that!
Let's see...weekly recap on sleep...been averaging 8 hours a night except for that one night I read and read and read and only got 6.5 hours. Still, considering three months ago the norm for me was 6.5 a night, this is an improvement. Need to make it consistent and try for some 9-10 hour shifts too! Have starting napping again...just 20 minutes in the afternoon...that coincides perfectly with the removal of caffeine from my diet!
OK...time to start loggging!
Up at 745 am.
815am: 8 oz tilapia, 4 oz each onions and beet greens, 1 tbs coconut oil, 1 cup bone broth, 1 cup decaf raspberry green tea.
Breakfast totals: 481 calories @ 63g Protein/15g Carb/20g Fat
OK! My best friend's husband new Pub, West Coast Barbeque and Brew, celebrated their grand opening this weekend, so the boys and I traveled out to La Mesa to help them celebrate. Lunch was delicious! and a treat...in all senses of the word. BBQ Beef, Sweet Potatoe Fries, and coleslaw. Savored every bite! Didn't over eat, by any means, but I'm pretty sure the slaw sauce wasn't paleo! lol! Didn't worry about macronutrient breakdown or anything either. And that's ALL RIGHT! lol! This is my life! and I know from past experiences that when I let myself have little treats, this shit is sustainable! And sustainable is what every single one of us need to be shooting for! Educate yourself, experiment on yourself, and find what works. My weird thing, I guess, is that I don't plan my treats ahead. I don't need so many a week, or have to know when they're coming to hold my resolve in my daily eating. I have gone three weeks without a single treat meal. Hell, I celebrated my birthday without going off the keto-wagon. I didn't feel like eating anything off program then. Today I wanted some sweet potato fries and a little break from normal. I enjoyed it. And don't feel one ounce of bad! And now back to our regularly scheduled programming...
7:00 8 oz squid, 4 oz romaine, 1 tbs of coconut oil.
Have no idea what daily totals are from lunch, so sort of scrapped the cron-o-meter for the day!
