I feel so yuck today! I don't know what happened. I think it may have been the stevia in the drink I had. I decided to try some of Dr. Berg's Wheat Grass Juice Powder mixed with some of his Electrolyte Powder in my ironic pineapple... along with the electrolyte drink I already had in there consisting of potassium, magnesium, and sodium with no sweetener. My own electrolyte drink is fine. It doesn't break my body. And the Dr. Berg supplement powders shouldn't break me, either. There isn't anything else that I can think of that would have caused this.

I gained 1.2 lbs from yesterday, and I'm terribly bloated. I had more fats than I should have, but that would not have caused so much bloat. This seems more like a response to too much insulin. At least, that's what I think it could be according to Dr. Berg's YouTube videos. I had half the salad that I typically have -- only 5 cups instead of 10. I had my Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole, but that had only 6 total carbs in it. Total carbs for the entire meal were 21 g because I had 5 C of the greens. Net carbs were only 16, though. I was under 20, so that didn't do this to me. I've had this many carbs before, and I've been fine.
I ate 1400 or so calories which is a lot more than usual. Most of the extra were in the additional fats. Fats do not trigger insulin. If I had had too much protein, and not enough fat, it may have triggered more of an insulin response. The extra fat should not have. So, literally, the only thing that could have done this is the addition of the supplements.
I plan to avoid the supplements tomorrow and for the next few days to see what happens with my body. This is a bit of a setback, but it's not he end of my journey. This is just a bump in the road, and I know I can recover from this. I think I should simply avoid the stevia-laden supplements going forward. I hope I can get this extra weight and bloating gon
e by tomorrow's weigh-in. This is hugely discouraging to see.
