Woo! I met with the porcelain fairy today, and we had a nice conversation. I also feel thinner today, in general. That's a nice feeling. I like "skinny days." I lost some weight, which is awesome, but also I think I look amazing in my outfit. The waist I began developing is more pronounced in this outfit. I feel -- dare-I-say -- sexy!
My husband is happy with how happy I am, too. He is excited for my progress, too, but he loves me no matter what. I am not in the 366-lb range, but I'm heading that way again. I'm at 367 lbs today. I know I shouldn't trust the scale, and that I should pay attention also to the inches I'm losing as the scale can be a lying liar who lies. I ordered a 120-inch seamstress's measuring tape, and that should get here in a few days. Then I can take measurements and see if I'm losing in size what I'm not losing on the scale.
Starting weight: 401 lbs
Current weight: 367 lbs ⇩
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 359 lbs
I keep changing my electrolyte drink mixture. I'm not sure how best to achieve what I want. I doubled the pink Himalayan salt to 1/2 tsp, and I doubled the potassium chloride to 1 tsp. I left the magnesium at 2 tbsp. I'm using the un-sweetened version that doesn't fully dissolve. I fear that the stevia in the sweetened version may be making my boxy act a bit hinkey. I'm not sure. To be safe, I am just avoiding artificial sweeteners. I heard that the artificial sweeteners can spike insulin, and I definitely don't want that to happen while i'm trying to fast for 20 or more hours a day.
There is a plethora of information out there about the ketogenic diet, and lot of it is a bit conflicting. I have taken advice out of the middle, and I'm trying my best to follow the diets of the more successful people. I like seeing stories about people who have lost 100 lbs or more. This is really helpful because I need to lose more than twice that amount to get to my ultimate goal of 145 lbs. I still don't even know if it's possible. My mother dropped down to about 165 lbs at her lightest, and she couldn't get any lower. She was also 5'4" and I'm 5'8". If I can get under 200 lbs, that would be a miracle; I hope i'm not asking for too much wanting to be 145 lbs.
Is my 145-lb goal too ambitious graph:
