I am under 370 lbs today! Wee! This is the lightest I have been yet since starting this weight-loss journey. The weight is coming off fairly fast. That's a total of 17.6 lbs since i began on April 12th, 2018. 17.6 lbs in 19 days! That's a rate of about .87 lbs per day. I'm sure that will slow down, but I hope it doesn't slow down too soon. I'd like to meet that short-term goal of getting into the 350s as soon as I possibly can.
Starting weight: 401 lbs
Current weight: 368.6 lbs ⇩
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 359 lbs
So now it's just 223.4 lbs to go to achieve my ultimate goal of weighing 145 lbs. i wonder if this is even possible sometimes. I'll take it one day at a time, one pound at a time, and hope for the best. It's going swimmingly so far. I'm really, really happy.
Did I mention how happy I am and how much energy I have on this Keto diet? My word! This is amazing.
i found another good doctor on the YouTube who discusses all things Keto: KenDBerryMD. He had one video that I just saw yesterday that changed the way I'm doing things. His video on what breaks a fast opened my eyes to the fact that the stevia sweetner I'm using may be spiking my insulin. What? Yeah! Apparently, any sweet taste tells my body to release insulin in preparation for a meal! Ugh!
I have been getting a bit hungrier of late during my fasting window. And yesterday, I was falling asleep at work! So my energy was low as well. I had been sipping on my "electrolyte juice" all day, every day. it has loads of stevia in it. I may have been sabotaging myself!
I fixed it. So the old recipe for the electrolyte juice was as follows:
6 C Ozarka water
2 tbsp Natural Calm magnesium supplement
1/2 tsp NoSalt potassium chloride salt substitiute
1/4 tsp pink Himalayan salt
6 tbsp apple cider vinegar with mother
1 packet of Koolaid flavor (either strawberry or cherry)
8 packets of Pyure stevia sweetner
I'd put about 16 oz of this into my ironic pineapple and sip away at it all day long. Now I have changed the formula to this:
6 C Ozarka water
2 tbsp Natural Calm magnesium supplement
1/2 tsp NoSalt potassium chloride salt substitiute
1/4 tsp pink Himalayan salt
It doesn't taste too bad. It's like mineral water. And after I drank my first 16 oz today, I patched things up with the porcelain fairy! Yay! So I will be doing this from now on.
Now I just need to figure out how I'm going to sneak in my apple cider vinegar. That stuff is disgusting taken straight. Also, the acid can damage teeth and the esophagus.
