I accidentally broke my fast! Eek!
I was working on a 72-hours fast this time, and while I was fixing dinner for my man, I gave it a huge taste! I forgot I was fasting! LOL. It happened. I started over. I'm at about 15 hours of a new fast, and I really want to try to go for a lot longer than 72 hours if I can last. I'm sure I can.
The good news is that my weight is down a bit today from where it was yesterday. It's only down by point-two lbs, but down is down, and I'll take it!
Starting weight: 401 lbs
Current weight: 361.8 lbs ⇩
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 359 lbs
I can see the finish line on that short-term goal, but I just can't seem to reach it yet. I will. If I can remember that I'm fasting and not taste the food, I'll be fine!
The casserole I made was supposed to be a Quiche Florentine. I tried making a coconut-flour-bases shortbread crust from a recipe I found online. It was a total flop. That crust was the worst! I think the problem was two-fold: one, it called for far too much flour, and two, it used melted coconut oil instead of butter. I don't think I'll make the crust again. The quiche filling, however, was a different story entirely.
I put in bacon, ham, spinach, and feta cheese. It was delicious. The egg mixture was eggs and heavy whipping cream. It needed a little longer to cook than other quiche-type casseroles I make, and I attribute that to my use of heavy whipping cream instead of sour cream. I think I will make this again, but I will change the heavy whipping cream out for sour cream, and I will leave off the crust altogether. I don't think I need it. The quiche will hold together fine without it.
While I was making the ham, bacon, spinach, and feta mixture, I tasted a large spoonful of it! That's how I accidentally broke my fast. I was really tired as it took forever for me to make the crust, so I wasn't thinking too straight. I called it a wash, and I started my fast over after I ate a meal with my husband. He was too full to take the full serving of food I offered, and that means that the Keto plan is finally working. Soon, he will probably eating the same number of calories I eat. The calories don't matter anyhow.
